Nothing here is my original. But I want to put them together in one place to save people from spending the same time as I did.

First off, bundle.
==================

1. cd to the project directory
2. Start the react-native packager if not started
3. Download the bundle to the asset folder:
curl "http://localhost:8081/index.android.bundle?platform=android" -o "android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle"

function removeEmoji($text)
    {
        $cleanText = "";

        // Match Emoticons
        $regexEmoticons = '/[\x{1F600}-\x{1F64F}]/u';
        $cleanText = preg_replace($regexEmoticons, '', $text);

        // Match Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs
        $regexSymbols = '/[\x{1F300}-\x{1F5FF}]/u';
