Tested with WPAndroid 14.6-rc-2 on Pixel 3 Android 10 Dark Theme.

Note: alignment (Android-only) and color (Android and iOS) are not yet supported in the editor either. See https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile/issues/1880 and https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile/issues/2165 to follow progress.

Research direction

Reproduce the post with colored and differently aligned headings, then verify that those heading settings are displayed correctly in the Reader on Android and iOS.
