We inherited an old app that was built in 2014. It has Helvetica Neue embedded in the app. Back then, Helvetica Neue was the iOS system font. Were fonts embedded in the apps back then, or simply called like a website does?
We're dealing with a font licensing provider that is saying we now owe licensing fees from 2014 to current date (2020) for usage of the Helvetica family (~$24,350).
It doesn't seem right to me since it was the system font, but maybe it shouldn't have been embedded in the app. I don't know how apps were built back then.
Anyone know how fonts were specified back in 2014 and if their claim for back-payment is legit?
