I don't know if it's my sync app or what but I don't see any formatting or symbols on my end at all. Can you post a screen shot of what you're doing?

Oh that actually worked for me on my sync app. But yes there's issues with the app displaying spoiler tags correctly.

That only works within the Sync app, not Lemmy as a whole. As plantsmakemehappy posted further up in the thread, the Lemmy markdown for spoilers is as follows:

Tap here to reveal the secret.Hidden content

Which is rendered as:

!test!<

I do not understand what the fuck I am doing wrong and I am losing my goddamn mind at this point.

Edit: I literally typed this exact thing out before and it didn't work. I do not understand why it is working now.

You can just view it on the web instead of in the sync app then.
