I'm trying to get these two unicode power symbols to show up in Strings on Android:

listOf("\u23fd", "\u23fe")

Unfortunately, they just show up as "no character encoding" boxed X glyphs. Is there an easy way to change my Text(...) call to get them to show up correctly?

Looks like these glyphs just aren’t in the standard fonts

Is there a way one can determine that for sure? I haven't found a "here's all of the glyphs supported by font XYZ" resource

It's frustrating, this Just Worked on iOS

You can use the Paint.hasGlyph() API

On my Mac, no default fonts except SF Pro seems to support these glyphs
