Emojis are not shown in phone notification [Missing Feature 11]

Unread post by ConiKost »

I noticed, that phone notification on Montana does not display Emojis. Seems, the used font does not support them. Firmware 10.50.

Interestingly, emojis are supported by the Montana 7x0, and are already present, as they are displayed for inReach messages sent via SMS!

Do notification works for you on iPhone with iOS 16? My list on Montana 750i stays empty with 14.80.
