Wrong calculator screen

Open davidegavio opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

When going to insert the amount of the transaction there's a calculator screen instead of a simple amount selector.

hi @davidegavio, could you please explain what would your expected behavior be? Is there anything you can't do with the calculator? Because for me the calculator can be very handy when I am inserting the amount which needs some pre-calculation (for example when I share a receipt with someone).

hi @bendaf I was thinking in terms of majority of cases and I should've explained better: I think that the majority of people doesn't need to perform pre-calculation when inserting the amount of money they spent/received. Furthermore in terms of ui design correctness a calculator communicates to the user that there's something more than just a numerical input. Theoretically an alternative is to provide a simple numerical input (like the picture below) to serve the majority of people, providing a button to switch to a calculator for the users that need pre-computation. I hope to have cleared your doubts.

Hello, the calculator has been introduced as an extended keyboard. The application has been designed to easily allow developers to integrate different type of pickers. By the way, the internal device keyboard cannot be integrated so easily due to the way the numerical fields are handled at core. If some developer want to try to implement something like this, i'm open to new ideas.
