Emojis are unreadable on some MAP devices

Open Tsuktis opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

Could it be possible to parse the text for emojis before pushing it to the MAP device? With a lookup table or something we could convert the emojis to a more readable text for example for the Pebble or a Car HiFi system.

Here is an example of a "lookup table" http://grumdrig.com/emoji-list/

This sounds like a good option to add to a dedicated BTNotificationEnabler settings pane.

A lookup table is not needed to determine the name of the characters because the built in CFStringTransform and kCFStringTransformToUnicodeName can be used. To determine which characters are emoji and need to be transformed, however, is not as easy and can be done using either this or this.
