Uses this function if you are using single font.

public static void applyFont(final Context context, final View root, final String fontName) {
        try {
            if (root instanceof ViewGroup) {
                ViewGroup viewGroup = (ViewGroup) root;
                for (int i = 0; i < viewGroup.getChildCount(); i++)
                    applyFont(context, viewGroup.getChildAt(i), fontName);
            } else if (root instanceof TextView)
                ((TextView) root).setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), fontName));
        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.e("ProjectName", String.format("Error occured when trying to apply %s font for %s view", fontName, root));
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
