[ANSWERED] xamarin.forms – Xamarin FontImageSource Glyph not showing up

Question 1

You miss a “#” after Android=ionicons.ttf :

<Image>
    <Image.Source>
        <FontImageSource
            FontFamily="{OnPlatform iOS=Ionicons,Android=ionicons.ttf#}"
            Glyph="&#xf37f;"
            Size="44"
            Color="Red" />
    </Image.Source>
</Image>

I don’t think there is a icon font named f37f in the ionicons

Question 2

I am trying to add a font icon using the following code:

    <Image>
        <Image.Source>
            <FontImageSource
                FontFamily="{OnPlatform iOS=Ionicons,
                                        Android=ionicons.ttf#}"
                Glyph="&#xf37f;"
                Size="44"
                Color="Red" />
        </Image.Source>
    </Image>

which I found on the official Microsoft Docs. However, the icon doesn’t show up on my Android phone, instead I get this (symbol not found placeholder):
