createIconSetFromIcoMoon - IOS - question marks

[IvanKrt]

Environment

"react-native": "0.64.2",
"react-native-vector-icons": "^8.1.0"
pod: 1.10.1

Description

Created custom icon set, and used it in the application. Android works fine, but in IOS devices, it shows question marks, instead of icons.
Added TTF file at every ./ios/... folders - didn't help.
myIcons.ttf is shown at Resources in XCode (12.4), and "Target Membership" is set to my project.
Already cleared cache, cleared build folder, used "react-native link" - didn't help.
At "project.pbxproj" my .ttf file is included. (everywhere, where my custom FONT .ttf files, btw font-family works fine on IOS, it shown my fonts, but icons- don't).

Here is my icon.js:

import { createIconSetFromIcoMoon } from 'react-native-vector-icons';
import icoMoonConfig from '../../../selection.json';
export default createIconSetFromIcoMoon(icoMoonConfig, 'myCustomIcons', 'myCustomIcons.ttf');

// also tried
export default createIconSetFromIcoMoon(icoMoonConfig);
-- no changes

Icon .ttf file is already in Build Phases -> Copy Bundle Resources.

NAMING is fine because android works good + names are similar as at my icon set at Icomoon website

Small update - if I enter a non-existing name (in my icon set) - it shows a question mark itself. But if I enter existed icon name - it displays as Question symbol inside the bordered square.

I had exactly the same issue, I solved it by:

const icoMoonConfig = require('./path-to-your-ico-moon-config.json');

const Icon = createIconSetFromIcoMoon(icoMoonConfig);
// This step is essencial
Icon.loadFont();

I am still facing this issue, Has anyone found the solution? @IvanKrt

This should seriously be added to the readme. It's not obvious at all that I have to run this for iOS, but not Android when using custom fonts.
