I was wondering why Monzo wasn’t letting me make a standing order for 25.75. Took me a while to figure out, but it’s because my iPhone was localized to Italian that uses the comma instead of the period for decimals and monzo saw it as an incompatible character. However the localized digit-only keyboard doesn’t allow you to switch between period or comma as it’s determined by the OS.
Unfortunately this is something you can’t switch without switching your region as the built in iOS digits keyboard only has the localized decimal separator.
Once I switched to Uk it worked as the comma turned into a period.
Solutions:
- Support other separators and auto-correct (risky)
- Override iOS keyboard with supported separator
