Maybe this should really be a feature request but I don't know where to put a feature request so here it is:
Is there a way to change the font of iOS message or could Apple change the default font? In particular, the font of the built-in message app?
Currently the font is visually confusing, especially between l and I, which is really inconvenient when it comes to receiving code-verification message that users need to read to input it somewhere else.

That would change the system font which would include the font in Messages and every other system app.
Is that your own experience? Normally downloaded fonts in iOS can only be used in apps which have a font menu, like Pages. But the system font and the font in apps without such a menu like Messages cannot be changed.
Hello,
Apple does not provide any other fonts to use with iOS but you can download different font apps from the App Store. They are all created by third party developers and can be found by searching "fonts" in the App Store.
Once you have a new font downloaded from one of those apps you would go to Settings > General > Fonts to enable it. That would change the system font which would include the font in Messages and every other system app.
I hope this helps.

If you are having trouble adding fonts, try a app like AnyFont.
Sorry, I did not test this on my own device and misunderstood the support article. If possible please unmark my original answer as helpful. I don't want too accidentally give others false hope that the font can be changed.
Thank you for very politely letting me know about my mistake.
I don't think I can unmark the helpful. Hopefully people would read the whole conversation. :)
Thank you. I will put the question there. Should I say this solved my question or leave it unsolved in this case?
Thank you for the reply, but I have checked that this (Settings -> General -> Fonts) shouldn't work? Could you please elaborate how to do that?
