setFontFeatureSettings error noSuchMethodError

Question

I want to write the number in alternate fraction.

1
_<BR>
2

instead of 1/2. for this purpose I used the code

Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Nutso2.otf");
vText.setTypeface(typeface);

vText.setText("1/2");
vText.setFontFeatureSettings("afrc");

but I am getting this error

Answer 1

setFontFeatureSettings is sadly only available from Lollipop (21) onwards, you can't use it before!
