Replace 'WiFi' text with icon in Place Page (PP) Preview about organicmaps HOT 6 OPEN

Using a custom font in the UI to render some text-like symbols/chars in an easy way looks like an interesting idea. Do both iOS and Android allow apps to bundle and use a custom font for rendering some chars in the app's interface? If yes, we can prepare a custom font with only necessary chars/icons, in our unique (and simple) style. These icons may also be used on the map btw by our font renderer.

There isn't a monochrome wifi icon unfortunately. We could use a custom emoji font though: https://emojipedia.org/noto-emoji

I am sorry but what does PP signifies to?

It's for Place Page. When you select a POI (Point of Interest), it opens a page for that place and you see all related info.

Maybe we should create a wiki subpage to include some terminology. WDYT?

Edit --> Proposal created: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/wiki/Glossary

I'll add anything that comes up 😄
