BOOL MTDIsBoldTextEnabled(void) {
static BOOL boldTextEnabled = NO;
static dispatch_once_t onceToken;

// Hack that checks if the "bold text" flag in the accessibility settings is enabled
UIFont *font = [UIFont preferredFontForTextStyle:UIFontTextStyleBody];
boldTextEnabled = [font.fontName rangeOfString:@"MediumP4"].location != NSNotFound;
});
