Did you "start using font file"? See the dictionary.

I've tried it and it's not working properly.
"start using font" only support for desktop not android

I have tried with that font and it doesn't work. But with others, if it works, maybe that font is not supported by Android.

Maybe I should look elsewhere than Google :D
Example: https://www.1001freefonts.com/es/lato.font

For some reason, now I can't upload files. So I put in drive the source that works for me. If it works for you, it is a problem with the google sources jjj
