How to get currency symbol from Play Billing Library

I use Play Billing Library and I have two subscriptions for one and three months. For a 3 month subscription, I want to display the price for 1 month. For example, a 1 month subscription is $1,50 and a 3 month subscription is $3 ($1 for a 1 month). But I have some problems with currencies.

This is a code:

long priceAmountMicros = skuDetails.getPriceAmountMicros(); //3000000
String priceCurrency = skuDetails.getPriceCurrencyCode(); //USD

float priceFloat = (float)priceAmountMicros / 3 / 1000000; //1
String price = new DecimalFormat("#0.00").format(priceFloat);

Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(priceCurrency);
String symbolCurrency = currency.getSymbol();//$

textView.setText(price + " " + symbolCurrency); //1.00 $ or 70.00 руб

The code almost is working. USD converted to $. EUR converted to £ and others. There are some problems with some currencies, for example, the Russian currency does not work. RUB converted to руб, but I expect ₽

There is a standard method for getting the price:

String price = skuDetails.getPrice();//3 $ or 210 ₽

Am I doing something wrong? Could you help me please?

Use this function to get the monthly price for an annual subscription. Don't use java currency class as it has issues with some currencies.

private fun getAnnualMonthlyPrice(skuDetails: SkuDetails): String {
    val re = Regex("[0-9.,]")
    val currency = re.replace(skuDetails.price, "")
    val priceMicro = skuDetails.priceAmountMicros / (1_000_000f * 12f)
    return "${currency}${"%.2f".format(priceMicro)}"
}

You can use Currency class from java.util package

Currency.getInstance(sku.priceCurrencyCode).symbol

will give you the symbol for currency code

One cannot assume that the currency symbol always would be to the left of the price.

Simply strip all numbers and decimal separators:

String symbol = skuDetails.getPrice().replaceAll("[\\d.,]", "");

However, the most easy might be:

textView.setText(skuDetails.getPrice());

I mean, why you even need the currency symbol?
