LumaShare: Better phone and email entry: matching keyboards, formatting, and validation

Improve how guests enter contact details in LumaShare and LumaBooth: add phone number and email as dedicated survey question types that show the native phone or email keyboard, validate the input, and format phone numbers into readable groups as the guest types. Full keyboards for phone numbers and hunting for the @ key slow down large events.

Consolidated from 3 customer requests on 3 Sep 2026.


Original request

Allow special survey input types that include validation or verification options, such as email, phone number, ect.

    The option to display the survey before/after would also be a nice option

      Yes jsut like AI survey.. before would be great, so you can exit out if they messed up. Now you have to start the WHOLE PROCESS again if they mess up the survey. Great call out.

    Would be great to add this to LumaShare as well. Then when you select Phone number or email for those survey types allow the native phone or email keyboards to appear vs the whole keyboard

    Update LumaShare Keyboards

    Have a different keyboard on lumashare for Phone Number or Email.
    When You have a survey enabled on LumaShare you get the same keyboard if you request:
    Phone Number
    Email
    Name
    Because its all “long answer” /”short answer” text fields.

    PLEASE for the love of god.. Just make Phone Number and Email a survey question “type” in Lumashare and show the Native Phone or Email Keyboard that apple provides its iOS devices. Having people typing there number on a full keyboard or having a hard time finding the @ or . for .com is infuriating at large corporate events. This would be such an easy change and help any corporate events that receive marketing data.

    Improve Phone Number & Email Entry Experience

    Hi everyone,

    I have a couple of suggestions that I think would make the guest experience even smoother when entering their contact information.

    1. Better phone number formatting

    As guests type their phone number, it would be great if the app automatically inserted separators to improve readability. For example:

    7787510380 → 778-751-0380

    Since this is an international app, the formatting should be as generic as possible and simply break long numbers into easy-to-read groups rather than assuming a specific country's format. This would make it easier for guests to review their number before submitting it and help reduce input errors.

    2. Smarter email keyboard suggestions

    When guests are entering their email address, it would be helpful if the keyboard or input field suggested the most common email domains after they type "@". For example:

    - @gmail.com

    - @outlook.com

    - @yahoo.com

    This small quality-of-life improvement could speed up the process, reduce typing, and help minimize email address mistakes.

    I think both of these enhancements would make data entry faster and more user-friendly, especially at busy events where every second counts.

    Thanks for considering these suggestions!

      LumaShare please!

      If you made the question categories

      “phone Number”

      “email” alongside what you already have. You could use the native iOS keybard for phone and email.

      Would help tremendously!

    Good news: LumaBooth on iPad, iPhone and Mac already has Email and Phone survey questions, with the right keyboard popping up for each, since version 5.0. Guests get a quick, easy way to share their details.

    Still on our list: checking that what guests type looks right, and tidying phone numbers into easy-to-read groups as they type. LumaShare doesn't have these question types yet, and we're working on bringing them over.
