@geriux could you take a look at this one? It is working fine =>Android 9 devices, but the older versions seems to not support that emoji. Probably that emoji requires a more recent version of unicode.

After some discussions, we decided to use 🔧instead of 🛠making it compatible with Android devices running a lower SDK.

While testing I spotted the "Envelope" -> ✉️ emoji wasn't working correctly for API Level >= 21 <=23

I tested going to the Unicode Version 1.0 from the emulator's browser and barely some rendered correctly from that list, then I checked the 6.0 version and almost all of them rendered correctly.

I'm not sure if its a device vs emulator thing but @maxme was that screenshot from an actual device or emulator? Did you see any issues with the envelope emoji?

This is probably a difference in unicode version. I can't test on a real device with API 21, I think that's not a big deal and it's only affecting ~3% of our users.
