iOS Input Hints

Overview

Use this skill when working on UI forms to make input fields trigger the correct iOS/iPadOS keyboard and behavior without changing layout.

Workflow

  1. Identify every input/textarea/select in the target form(s).
  2. For each field, choose the correct semantic type and inputmode based on expected data.
  3. Add or validate autocomplete, autocapitalize, autocorrect, and enterkeyhint where helpful and safe.
  4. Keep visual structure untouched; only adjust attributes.

Keyboard Mapping (quick rules)

  • Numbers (integer): type="number" + inputmode="numeric".
  • Numbers (decimal): type="number" + inputmode="decimal".
  • Free text: type="text" (no inputmode unless a specialized keyboard is desired).
  • Email: type="email" (email keyboard) + autocomplete="email".
  • URL: type="url" + autocomplete="url".
  • Phone: type="tel" + autocomplete="tel".
  • Search: type="search" + enterkeyhint="search".

Meta Behaviors

  • Autocomplete: Use the most specific token possible (e.g., given-name, family-name, current-password, new-password, username).
  • Autocapitalize/autocorrect: Disable for codes, IDs, URLs, emails, and handles; allow for freeform text.
  • Enter key: Use enterkeyhint to match intent (next, done, search, send).
  • Do not reshape UI: Only adjust attributes; no styling or layout changes.
