Instagram red heart emoji shows black/white - help

Hi, I’m facing a strange issue on my Nothing Phone 2a (Nothing OS 2.5, Android 14). When I react with the ❤️ red heart emoji in Instagram DMs: In the main app, it shows 🖤 black In Instagram Lite, it shows 🤍 white But the other person sees ❤️ red as expected I’ve tried clearing cache/data, reinstalling the app, and even factory resetting the phone — no luck. Logged into the same account on other phones, and it works fine there. Seems like a rendering bug specific to this device.

Some of y’all find “problems” where no problem exist, just to complain about the most peculiar things. It’s honestly amusing to read, lol.

If I remember correctly, this bug is caused by using the Inter font. If you look closely, the 5G and 4G symbols haven’t been updated to accommodate for it either.

Anonymous931 So confidently wrong, like I glaze Nothing as well but this is just too much…

Hritabrat oh damn i thought I’m the only one to have this issue, Crazy that many users are facing this. @Carl upload a patch my guy

This bug seems tied to Nothing OS 3.0 (possibly emoji rendering/font bug), and is affecting multiple users. Can the developers please look into this for the next beta/stable patch? this is ruining the nothing os experience. Thanks

Hritabrat I’m also facing this bug but I don’t know it’s a bug or default icon. It’s only in Nothing phone 2a users

Afswah @Daniel see? so many users are facing the same problem, Can’t the developers do anything in the next update? or upload a small patch for it?

Hritabrat Yes I also have this issue

Daniel

Hritabrat The best way to get this on the team’s radar is by submitting reports using settings -> system -> feedback.
