What are the default fonts for slideshows in Photos?

Title is the question. I want to add some video clips and would like to add titles to the video. Doing it in Photos is undesirable because they stay in for the length of the clip.

Well, the answer to this was simple. Apple support knew.


You highlight a text in the Photos slideshow. Then in Edit you go down to Font in the new box select show fonts. A box with the fonts on you machine appears. The highlighted font is your font.

Good afternoon telefrankchi,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you are wanting to add titles to your video clips, controlling the length and the font of the title. Since you don't want to do this in the Photos app, we would suggest using iMovie or Final Cut Pro X to create a slideshow or movie. Each title has default font applied to it, but you can change that to any font on your computer.

Take care.

Thank you replying. But I know all this already. I am adding video into a slide show. Since I have no control over ins and outs of titles in Photos I am cuting the video's in iMovie where I can control the titles. I want the fonts to match each other. That being the ones in the video and the ones in the slideshow. So what are the default fonts for slideshows in Photos?
