Yes! I auditioned dozens of fonts for the UI of https://figure.game and chose Lexend for its legibility, even at small sizes. It’s also got lots of understated charm and character (no pun intended) in my opinion. After reading about the project, I was very impressed with the reading fluency improvements reported, especially considering that (to me) it just looks like a very classy contemporary geometric sans.
I love seeing this push into legibility!
