Serif or sans serif

Serif styles have small strokes at the ends of each letter, like a printed book. Sans styles are plain and look closer to the text most apps already use.

Which styles have digits

Unicode has bold digits for the serif and sans styles, but no italic digits. In the italic styles, numbers stay as you typed them.

Use real bold when the app has it

If the app has a bold button or supports Markdown like **bold**, use that instead. It stays normal text underneath, so screen readers read it and search can find it.

Screen readers and bold text

In tests by accessibility consultant Adrian Roselli (March 2025, updated September 2025), NVDA, VoiceOver and Narrator skipped fake bold and italic text, JAWS read it letter by letter with the style name, and TalkBack read it as normal text. Use it for a name or a word, not for whole sentences.
