Roboto is the neo-grotesque sans serif Christian Robertson designed for Google, released in 2011 as the signature typeface of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Its letterforms pair a mechanical grotesque skeleton with open, natural curves, drawn to stay clear and neutral in interface text and comfortable in long reading on screens. This download is the original 2011 release: six weights from Thin to Black, each with its italic, plus a Condensed set in Regular and Bold with italics, 16 styles in all. Every style carries 878 characters covering Latin, Greek and Cyrillic, with a full figure set. Google refined the family in 2014 for Android 5.0; this is the first cut, the one that defined Android's look. Use it for app and web interfaces, body text, documentation, presentations, and clean corporate layouts.

Roboto Thin is just as good as Helvetica for logotype (actually it works a little better sometimes 😉
Helvetica is overrated (there, I said it), and Roboto is frankly rather ugly. I can’t stand that lowercase g; the descender is small and unbalanced. Wish I could get rid of it on my Android phone.
Can you add new characters from unicode plus ?
Roboto was a four-headed Frankenfont.

You have the old version of Roboto font.
Is there any explanation why this font, used widely in electronic devices DOES NOT contain so much as a single Arrow glyph? Who designed this and what can account for this lazy design oversight?
Wow!
This was the system font.
nice! a very good substitute for helvetica!
keep it up, google android!
