iOS 13 brings ‘Custom fonts’:

Fonts
Custom fonts
You can now install custom fonts and use them in your favorite apps.
Manage fonts
Easily see and manage the fonts you’ve installed right in Settings.
App Store
Fonts will be available from the App Store, making it easy to find and install them.
This appears to be an iOS 13 specific feature, so it is different that what is possible with 3rd party apps like iFont. And so far, I have not seen any evidence of Fonts ‘available in the App Store’, or app updates touting the ability to work with custom fonts, or tech articles walking through how the feature works. So I assume it has not arrived yet.

In any case it is something Amazon would have to implement.

There’s no reason they had to wait on Apple to support Custom fonts, as a number of reading apps do on iOS and Android, but to date, they haven’t.
