How to implement soft hyphen in Android w/ React Native Text

<Text>Aufmerksamkeits{'\u00AD'}defizit</Text>

This leads on iOS to

Aufmerksamkeits-
defizit

But on Android to

Aufmerksamkeitsd
efizit

So it seems that Android ignores the given soft hyphen. How can I make this work on Android as well?

Thanks!
