I have been a Bubble user for over 2 years now and host a mobile app on the platform. I just noticed starting last week, that users can no longer enter decimal values using iOS devices. Has anyone else experienced this issue? The decimal inputs work fine via a desktop web browser and via Android devices, the issue is only on iOS (iPhone and iPad). Many of the calculations in our app require a decimal point value.
Screenshots attached of the decimal option not being available on the keyboard via iOS and the input box showing decimal input within Bubble.
Thank you @JohnMark for that workaround! I attempted to change the content format to ‘Text (numbers only)’ but Bubble states the data field I am using is set to number and not text. We have so many data fields that could use decimals, I don’t want to have to re-create every data field as ‘text’ and then change all the input fields content format.
Had the same problem in one my customers app. This is a known iOS issue. I have tried almost everything and the conclusion I reached after all the research is that users of different frameworks developed plugins for it. In my case I have made a bubble up and down arrow input.
I concur, I feel like Bubble should attempt to release a fix for this issue. It’s been an issue now for over 2 months. I have pages in our mobile app that are currently not functioning, due to all the various calculations that require a decimal point entry.
For the long time Bubble users, what is the best way to get this on Bubble’s radar? I placed a bug report and was politely told this was an iOS issue and no action was taken on Bubble’s part.
I’m sure it’s a Bubble priority, but not number one (urgent) in their list. As a bypass, you can install a plugin convert text to number, and change your inputs for text.
