Works for me on Android 4.2.2...

This may simply be due to limited font availability on an older version of Android.

Comment 2 Amir E. Aharoni 2013-09-11 15:20:03 UTC

That would be fixed if we added webfonts support to the app, although it has some challenges, too.

Could you just post an screenshot? 

I've tested it on Nexus 7 android 4.3 and the issue still persists, there is a character missing, however shows a blank space instead of a white square.

On Firefox for Android the characters are shown correctly, which I presume is because uses its own engine while wikipedia relies on the framework provided by android.

Closing for now as were deprecating this codebase. Pleas re-open if this persists with the new one. thank you.
