VistasHow to specify Japanese encoding for a UILabel?
When I attempt to display a Japanese string in a UILabel on iOS, it gets displayed using Chinese encoding instead of Japanese.
The two encodings are nearly identical, except in a few specific cases. For example, here is how the character 直 (Unicode U+76F4) is rendered in Chinese (top) vs. Japanese (bottom):
(see here for more examples)
The only time Japanese strings render correctly is when the user's system locale is ja-jp (Japan), but I'd like it to render as Japanese for all users.
Is there any way to force the Japanese encoding? Android has TextView.TextLocale, but I don't see anything similar on iOS UILabel
(Same question for Android. I tagged this Swift/Objective-C because, although I'm looking for a Xamarin.iOS solution, the API is almost the same)

You just need to specify language identifier for attributed string, like
let label = UILabel()
let text = NSAttributedString(string: "直", attributes: [
.languageIdentifier: "ja", // << this !!
.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 64)
])
label.attributedText = text
Tested with Xcode 13.2 / iOS 15.2
