They've been known to actually break a Buzztouch app from time to time, so it's important to use them sparingly. I'm not sure if it's more an Android/iOS issue, or how Buzztouch deals with them, but they do cause issues. I wish I had a solution for you! Maybe some research on Android and how it deals with special characters is in order. Mark Comments Non-English characters are tough in app development for sure.

Tried changing to HTML entities like & and á but don't Works. Tried changing to HEX value and nothing. Tried changing to UNICODE and nothing. Anyone have another idea? Thanks Comments Hi all, In spanish is impossible to avoid the use of special characters like á é í ó ú Localization is not the problem because the text is not on the strings.xml file, is on json file (are questions/answers on quiz plugin).
