I have to thank you for adding this glyph first. It was I who requested it in the first place. Unfortunately, I still can't get them to render properly on my phone. Here's a picture showing what I see:

When using the typeface lato, the overline does show up but it's incorrectly shifted to the right.

Here's what it should look like when rendered properly (still too high but better) using the typeface segoe UI:

Thanks again for your great effort. ❤

Hi Ray.

Thanks for reporting.
I can move the top anchor of /uni0305 so that it places between the two /o (see screenshot).
I could also lengthen the stroke so that it fits perfectly over the two /o. But what if it is placed on top of more narrow glyphs? (see illustration with an example /idotless)?
Not really sure here, do you have detailed knowledge on that?

I’m also wondering that the ' in "voo'doo" is not displayed with Fira. Is it /uni0027 or another glyph that might be missing?

I've found out what the problem is. It's not really U+0305 Combining Overline that's missing. That glyph is actually U+035E Combining Double Macron, which is covered by both lato and segoe but not fira. Sorry, I didn't know I was looking for the wrong glyph. My apologies. The ʹ is U+2032 Prime.
