I came across a lot of posts dating back to 2016 and 2017 asking about phone number formatting.

Was this ever resolved?

Would like to have my numbers auto format to (xxx) xxx-xxxx in appsheet for new form entries

You could add an action which would change the format when you save the form.

what type of action?

Were you able to get this figured out?? I’d like to have my ph numbers show that way also.

I would like the masking future just in general. More for Security reasons. I have it setup in such a way that the supervisors can enter admin password on any tablet which will grant them access to admin privileges for 1 minute. Mostly to fix the mistakes of others etc.

Need Password Field Style Masking.

Set a value of a column. You can trigger that action after your saving.

The is called “masking” and appsheet doesn’t have this feature.

@Grant_Stead No we don’t have it directly but you can create your own masking with an action. Of course you could do it in an additional column, but with the action you don’t need to add any columns.

Why do you have to have the ()?

I always look for wasted/useless digits like this to eliminate making my apps more streamlined and efficient.
