I'm developing a react native app for iOS, and using react-native-paper and react-native-vector-icons. I followed all the steps for installation and configuration on both the React Native Paper docs and the vector icons docs. I am trying to use the [Material Icons font from Google Fonts][1], but no matter what I put in the icon="" property, I get a question mark. Sometimes it's a plain question mark and sometimes it's a ? inside a box.

My code for this screen:
import {Button, TextInput} from 'react-native-paper';
import {useRecoilState} from 'recoil';
import {passwordState, usernameState} from '../recoil/store';
export const LoginScreen = () => {
const [username, setUsername] = useRecoilState(usernameState);
const [password, setPassword] = useRecoilState(passwordState);
return (
<View>
<TextInput
mode="outlined"
label="Username"
value={username}
onChangeText={text => setUsername(text)}
/>
<TextInput
mode="outlined"
label="Password"
value={password}
onChangeText={text => setPassword(text)}
/>
<Button mode="elevated" icon="login">
Login
</Button>
</View>
);
};
