How to change the font on iPhone 16 after downloading?

if I've downloaded a font in settings, how do I change the font on the actual phone? I have an iPhone 16.

iPhone allows downloading fonts, but does not allow changing system font.

Custom fonts only work inside apps that support them (Pages, Word, Adobe, etc.).

You can customize the Lock Screen clock font, but only using Apple’s built-in choices.
