Firebase: How to display unicode string variables?

Question

Hello – I've recently started adding Firebase Remote Config support to my android app. However, I've come to realise that any unicode strings that I set in either the default config or the remote config, get rendered as is.
For example, say there's a key currency and I set its value to \u20b9 - then my app renders it as-is, and NOT the rupee symbol (₹) like it should.

On a related note, how to have line feeds inserted into config values, such that when rendered, a line-feed is inserted and not the sequence - \n

So is the question to render these symbols in the app or inside the Firebase console? — OBX, Feb 02 '17 at 17:08
Apparently - you need to render the symbols yourself on the client. — Vaiden, Feb 27 '18 at 11:05

Place \n in Firebase remote config. And in your code do

yourstirng.replaceAll("\\n", '\n');
