Description
Description:
All users avatars are not displayed correctly in the Android and iOS apps. The avatar letter is not generated.
On the desktop, avatars are generated correctly.
I also asked Rocket.Chat.React Native for information and they replied that the problem could be due to missing fonts on the server.
Server Setup Information:
- Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 4.5.1
- Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Deployment Method: snap
- Device Name: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold
- OS Version: Android 12
