nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Is it possible for the iOS number keyboard to pop up rather than the regular keyboard for integer fields?

I am setting up a Survey123 in an XLSForm. I often have a 'year' field where I need people to enter a four digit year. In the past I have set the form up with these fields as 'integer' type. When in the field and a user selects this field, it opens the iOS keyboard where we then have to select the '123' in the bottom left of the keyboard to pull up the numerical keyboard. Is there a way to have this keyboard pulled up by default for these fields?

Yes set the appearance to numbers.

If your form is old then you can type it in.

There is also a a new tool to update the form then you should get it. First upgrade Connect. Note numbers only shows up for integer and decimal.

If that fails then your form is really old and I can walk you through how to do it. I got a post somewhere.

aahhhh... maybe that's it! I did have to update but I still don't have 'numbers' under appearance. I think today is just not my day 🤔

Sorry, I should have been more clear- I am using Connect to create the form. I don't understand where to address this.

I accepted this as the solution since this is correct.

But, I am a visual learner, so I will also drop this here:

And I'll add one final note. I believe that the numbers appearance was only added in later versions of Connect, so if you don't see it as an option, please ensure your Connect is up to date.
