Yeah, I’m not sure. Not one of my favored areas of concern, as I’m happy with the existing fonts. Perhaps someone else can weigh in?

This is the description from Apple. It does seem Mr$tone is correct that fonts are used in apps that support them and not used to change the system wide fonts.
I'm OK with this also as I generally like the Apple SF font across the system.
They will NEVER let users change any of that...it's for emails, messages, notes, Word, Pages, etc....
Eeh, yes, that’s what I said. Don’t read so fast next time.
Any chance we see a 12.4 GA release on Monday and iOS 13 DP4 on Tuesday? Kind of my thinking at this point... and for the record, I've been wrong before. (Just ask my wife or kids).
Hopefully one or the other... regardless, I think we see DP4 this week.
We will definitely get beta 4 this week. I’m hoping for tomorrow.
Would there be any reason for us not getting developer beta 4 this week? Only reason would have to be because of too much downtime during the week of 4th of July making development halt for a short period making us having to wait three weeks instead of two weeks between beta 3 and beta 4.
Normally we should be getting new beta's every two weeks at this point in the cycle.

Recall that these betas have existed for some time before we see them. Apple, internally, is testing these several weeks before we see them. So, other than the possibility of some disruption due to the bad “f” build of the current beta, the next beta version is teed up and ready.
The question is: today, tomorrow or later this week (to allow as much time to pass and data to be collected on the revised “g” build as possible). Given the continued preeminence of the iPhone 7 (#1 globally, see chart below) and the iPhone 7Plus (#6), and the fact that these were the phones affected by the bad build, I’d say there’s a decent chance Apple will want a few extra days of data before releasing the next beta. On the other hand, they have now had a week, so that may be enough. On the third hand, they are on a tight deadline and they can’t wait too long to release to be able to release in time to hit the September deadline.
My guess, then is 12.4 today and 13.0 beta 4 tomorrow. They might have done it the other way but for the build failure.
Finally, the the July 4th holiday: this is a known impediment so they definitely plan around it. It has not impacted other years (see 2nd chart below). iOS 11 had its own issues with beta 2 so should not be considered.

I think we get DB4 today and 12.4 along with the Apple card Tomorrow... Only because i think they reserve big public facing releases for Tuesdays usually.
I think right now the only thing bothering me on iOS 13 is this phantom blank email line I have that I can't get rid of no matter what I do. Other than that DB3 has been pretty good for me, surprisingly since so many have had a long list of issues with it.
oh and email badge count on mail is wonky also but that doesn't really bother me since I am an inbox zero type and usually don't have much in there.

Yes.
Sorry, my wife said it will be Tuesday.
Tim texted me this morning, he said that one will come out tomorrow.
