I'm using ☰ (unicode ☰) to be shown as a burger icon for mobile phones, but unfortunately it doesn't appear on mobile phones. Why is that?

Is there is another way to show it on mobile phones?

  • Are you talking in an app like phoneGap -- Or straight web browser? Which browsers if so?? – Zak Oct 24 '17 at 16:12
  • Either the mobile browser's font doesn't have that character, or you made a mistake. – JJJ Oct 24 '17 at 16:13
  • ☰ Works in iOS 11 – mplungjan Oct 24 '17 at 16:14
  • If it's mobile web -- I'd use a third party font like **fontawesome** -- http://fontawesome.io/ or **Glyphicons** http://glyphicons.com/ to prevent incompatibility – Zak Oct 24 '17 at 16:16
  • @Zak , web browser 'uc browser' – Joe Oct 24 '17 at 16:22
  • @JJJ , It shows when I decrease the size of the browser width on PC , How to make the font to have the character? – Joe Oct 24 '17 at 16:23
  • You can't. Use another font. – JJJ Oct 24 '17 at 16:23

You should look into using either fontawesome or material.io. You cant rely on devices universally supporting a particular emoji. They can differ greatly between different devices, and OS Versions.
