Description
Description
Native modules have support for fallback fonts. Our custom font does not support all the languages we support so text based animations render strange symbols
Expected behavior
There are already great APIs for fallback fonts on iOS and Android. We are merely proposing exposing these in the react-native sdk.
Additional context
It looks like support is described as coming soon:

(Just saw as I was adding this issue). Hopefully this issue can serve as a place to get updates or comment on complications.
