Has anyone tried to use this on Android device?

Working on a little game and its nice to show Hearts using the Display Text function. Makes it an easy "health bar". Just not sure if these only work with Apple products.

My android tester is out of market for a few days.

    Hey. Seems to work fine on Android too. This will work in simple cases for a health bar. You could even stack display texts at different levels for more.

    Interesting that there is a ton of emojis and symbols that can be used. After all this time and I never even played with it.

    I read about using unicode symbols in the forums some time ago. I've been tempted to make a game using only unicode graphics :D

    It works great for a simple health bar. I was thinking of a game related to the Olympics, but thought about all the art work for flags. Now I see there are a lot in unicode.
