Traditional Chinese characters change appearance after I send messages (Zhuyin keyboard issue?)
Hii everyone
I’m having a strange problem with Traditional Chinese input on my phone, and I’m trying to understand what is happening.
I use the Traditional Chinese Zhuyin keyboard. When I type a word and select a character from the suggestions, the character displayed in the keyboard looks correct (the Taiwanese Traditional Chinese form that I expect).
However, after I press send and the message appears in apps like Telegram, ChatGPT, or Apple Notes, some characters are displayed differently. They are still Traditional Chinese characters, but the shape/structure of the strokes changes. Some of them look like simplified or “weird” versions of the traditional characters.
The confusing part is that the character is correct when I select it from the Zhuyin keyboard, but after it is inserted and displayed by another app, it changes visually.
For example:
Writing with Zhuyin → correct Taiwanese Traditional Chinese form
Sending the message → different-looking character appears
This is causing problems because sometimes I don’t recognize characters that other people send me. I’m used to Taiwanese Traditional Chinese characters, so when I see these different glyph forms, I sometimes cannot immediately understand them.
I already tried:
Changing my iPhone region to Taiwan
Using the Traditional Chinese Zhuyin keyboard
Checking language settings
But the issue still happens, especially in Telegram and Apple Notes.
Is this a font/rendering issue (Taiwan vs Hong Kong/Macau glyphs)? Is there a way to force iOS to always display Taiwanese Traditional Chinese characters across all apps?
Thanks for any help!
