In WWDC2020, a new feature was introduced in which the app can get Contact AutoFill by setting the Content Type of a UITextFiled.
This feature works on iOS 14.5 when the Content Type is set to email address but doesn't work for phone number.
Here's the two changes I'm making in my code:
textField.keyboardType = .phonePad
textField.textContentType = .telephoneNumber
Is there anything else that needs to be done or this is a known bug.
Any updates. Encountered same bug.
func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool
just return empty replacementString string.
You need to use the default keyboard and type in the contact's name in order for it it show up on the autofill.
textField.keyboardType = .default
textField.textContentType = .telephoneNumber
textField.keyboardType = .phonePad textField.textContentType = .telephoneNumber
did't work . Seriously?
textField.keyboardType = .numbersAndPunctuation textField.textContentType = .telephoneNumber
works. Seriously?
