How can we add verified tick mark on social media platforms using only Unicode? Is there a character which has a very high resemblance to it?

Yes, ☑️ or ✅ looks like those. Twitter even has a list of emojis that look like the verified symbol (and prevents those emojis from being used in usernames).

As the image below shows, WhatsApp (Web) now supports all of the active scripts in the Unicode BMP - incredible! I believe all of those fonts are in the app itself - it's not relying on system fonts at all.
The penultimate line shows a phrase in the Musa alphabet, which is encoded in the Unicode Private Use Area at E000-E1FF. As you can see, some of the codepoints are tofu, while others have emoji.
My question: is there any clever way to teach WhatsApp to use an installed Musa font to display those codepoints? Or Telegram? Or Signal?
I need to change the speech language for a specific response. I know I can change the TTS voice for the whole app, but I have not found a way to do that for a response. In this case, the supported user locales are English and German, but the text I want Google Assistant to speak is in Korean.
Interestingly, there is no problem if the user locale is German and the text is in English. However, when I tried to create a response with Korean text, there was no audio feedback.
Unfortunately, the Actions on Google platform does not have support for in-dialog language changes. The case you've outlined may be an exception based on certain languages having support for other-language words which are supported as a subset in the primary language.
One alternative you might consider here is using recorded spoken audio through SSML. This is a popular way to insert custom audio output into your app, which may make sense for your use case.
I am trying to find a solution for this AR app as the topic tells.
I want my app to recognize a hand-written number by the user.
The app will tell the user to write down for example number 24 on a paper and move the camera over the written number to see the 3d object.
This might be used for saving a Birthday, a wedding date .. etc
For accuracy, the app instructions will show the user a preview to tell please write the number 24 similar to this..
Although each hand writing will differ, but at least we do not get curly "2"-s or "4" with an open edge ..etc
So here we need AR to recognize the number, or be able to read the number according to approximation.
And the first question is: Is such a behavior doable or anyone familiar with a similar concept?
After searching similar apps, I found "Ink Hunter" apps for tatoo preview-s, although these apps use symbols not number, but we can think of a number as a symbol as well.
Also as this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rXJcIE2Fcs shows, each user draws the symbol in a different way and still they get it working.
I am using Unity3d and Vuforia.
Vuforia offers free samples(unity3d packages) on the website, and there is one named "Text Recognition" , and here's the tutorial link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3MK6nC5FWE
But unfortunately couldn't make it work.
If someone has developed such a functionality using these sample projects from vuforia or have any ulternative method please I need you help :)
thanks in advance moghes
Here's a tutorial our team created on text recognition using the Hololens and Vuforia with Unity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdMeHgD4fMY. In the first portion of the video, we show how to get text recognition working with just Vuforia and Unity - no Hololens required. For your application, just change the text to numbers.
I believe the biggest challenge you will have is the "hand-written" component. From our research, Vuforia prefers computer-generated, predefined font types.
I'm setting up an html email with one jpeg and three different "hotspot" links to various items on the server. The email and links work perfectly on any desktop computer and android smartphone. On the iPhone, however, the hotspot links don't work. Is this an iPhone issue? Is there a fix without having to dive into a more heavily coded emailer? Thanks!
It seems based on this article that image maps are supported on iPhones only if they are contained in a table, otherwise the image will be resized but the links won't move around to match. See also this question
I wanted to write an Android and/or an iPhone app that entails taking a picture of something (right now, I just want to limit to text) after which the app parses the text to make use of it. For example, perhaps taking picture of a sentence (or may be just fragments) will be then parsed by the app to bring up more information about the book. Title, author, ISBN etc. And even may be information about other books that are similar in content to this book.
Is this possible to do something like this? Is there an API that exists already that parses the content of an image? How is an image stored in Android and iPhone? Is it possible to implement the app in one platform and not the other?
I'd appreciate any input or advice that you guys have to offer. Thank you!
You're looking for this, possibly.
It's called OCR, or Optical Character Recognition.
Also check out ZXing a great library for decoding one- and two-dimensional barcodes. There are both iPhone and Android versions.
