title: iOS 7 and Helvetica Neue UltraLight: use as default for older iOS versions
body: <p>To my knowledge, the default font of iOS 7 is <strong>Helvetica Neue UltraLight</strong>, which is a lot thinner compared to its bold predecessor. To provide a consistent design and make my forthcoming apps look the same across all common iOS versions, I'd like to apply Helvetica Neue UltraLight as the default (primary) font of the app. </p>
  
  <p>Gladly, this "new font" is available <a href="http://iosfonts.com/">since iOS version 5.0</a>, so it's already supported by versions prior to iOS 7. Sadly, the only way I figured out to use it, is to manually call <code>[UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-UltraLight" size:size]</code> on each UIView's font, which is tedious and error-prone to inconsistency.</p>
  
  <p>So my question is, what is your way to do this or how do you handle this design change?</p>
