The iPhone is now automatically turning 2D unicode symbols into 3D emojis! For example:

enter image description here

I need the unicode to render in the traditional black-and-white glyph format. And, I can't easily replace the Unicode symbol with an image because this is happening in the editAction of a UITableView row. Hence the unicode:

// My struct for quick reference to symbols struct cellEditActionIcons { static var upArrowSymbol = "\u{2191}" static var checkSymbol = "\u{2713}" static var deleteSymbol = "\u{2715}" }

Now I need to find a way to force the unicode symbol to stay in flat style of a glyph format. I've found other people with the same problem, but no clear iOS solution yet (SimilarIssue1, SimilarIssue2). Does anyone know how to achieve this?
