If you are trying out lots of different fonts, you can try using the @expo-google-fonts/dev
package.
You can import any font style from any Expo Google Fonts package from it. It will load the fonts over the network at runtime instead of adding the asset as a file to your project, so it may take longer for your app to get to interactivity at startup, but it is extremely convenient for playing around with any style that you want.
The @expo-google-fonts/barlow
package and its code are released under the MIT license.
All the fonts in the Google Fonts catalog are free and open source.
Check the Barlow page on Google Fonts for the specific license of this font family.
You can use these fonts freely in your products & projects - print or digital, commercial or otherwise. However, you can't sell the fonts on their own. This isn't legal advice, please consider consulting a lawyer and see the full license for all details.
