How to show special characters on Apple App Store product description?

Question

I see with some apps like Toodledo they use checkmarks for their revision history. How can you show/use special characters in an App Store product description? Does it allow H

Answer 1

I am the author of the Toodledo app. Here is how I did it. I found the character I wanted on the internet by searching for "unicode symbols". I found it on wikipedia

I then copy and pasted the checkmark ✓ into my app description. And every time I need to make a new checkmark, I go and copy and paste it again since I don't know how to type it. There are lots of interesting symbols to choose from. I also use a star★
