@DavSlinker not really I'm afraid, on Gadgetbridge the code is basically already there - I hope that when the custom version is in the play store, features will get added more quickly

@user142091 ok, well that's easier in some ways since in iOS we can't render in the phone.

There's a list of unicode remappings at https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/blob/master/apps/ios/boot.js#L116 which is currently very empty.

You could either:
- simply remap the unicode for ż to z, OR...
- make an image for ż on your PC, use https://www.espruino.com/Image+Converter to convert it to an image string, add \0 to the front of it, and use that.
- One other option (which isn't handled yet) is for me to allow drawString to write one character over the top of the last. So for instance z and ' could be rendered on top of each other to produce something that looked at least a little like ż without having to include a bitmap font.
The replacements are something I'd love to get in, so if I can help with that I'd be very happy to. I guess the first option is pretty easy and would (for now) at least make messages readable?

Ok, I've done remaping in iOS integration app. Now I want to explore second option.
But I am not sure what do you mean by:

make an image for ż on your PC, use https://www.espruino.com/Image+Converter to convert >it to an image string, add \0 to the front of it, and use that.

After conversion to string, where should I use it in code?
