Where there is an obvious number entry component, I sure would like for the number entry to come up instead of the Alpha Keyboard. Number entry for miles (and such) would be so much easier on my app. ---

The Number Entry component should be doing this. I use Android. What kind of device do you you have? ![Screenshot_20191021-223435](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/cc40d7ba127c56f475927a5feaa3d46093c116d5.png) ---

We changed it back to the alphanumeric keyboard, because the number keyboard wouldn’t let you enter negative numbers. ---

Understood. Maybe it can be a creator option. I could click what I want the user to see. Thanks for a great product! ---

I think it all depends on the type of entry field. If you change to phone entry, it would probably give you the keyboard you want, but it would show a picture of a phone on the right side of the entry field. Maybe if we could turn on or off those little icons. ---
