Look for standard Linux / Ubuntu fonts and/or Android fonts.
The should be "free" enough for you to distribute them with your application.

...indeed. Google has commissioned a font family called Noto, which is free to use commercially:

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

But Noto is a set of more than 200 fonts and 477MB zipped!
Our PB program today offers German, English and French. Now, for the fourth language, I need to switch the font's, too? And what if someone is using the English version and wants to write a Chinese message? Seems I need a font which covers European and Chinese in one. But how to do with all the Noto fonts? I'm pretty helpless now...

Welcome to the world of internationalization.
There is no font that includes all characters. You'll have to choose one that suits your needs.
Maybe a better option for you is to ask the user to select his/her own font.
