    Hello Brendan,

    I created a field to store phone numbers, and I enter them as +country code followed by the number. If i captue a number in Francr, e.g. +33811111111, Tap Forms shows + 33 8 11 11 11 11, wheras a number in Thailand +66811111111 will show as +668-1111-1111. This is true on both the iPad and iPhone versions, when the digit after the country code is 8. Behaviour is different when this first digit is 7 or 1. Strange, is not it?Take care. Dom

    Hello Dom,

    Tap Forms uses the region format setting to determine how to format phone numbers. Apple has built-in code to do this, however, they don’t make it public for developers, so the code I am using was reverse engineered. It may not be perfect though.

    Sorry.

    Thanks,

    Brendan
