RMPhoneFormat provides a simple to use class for formatting phone numbers in iOS apps. The formatting should replicate what you would see in the Contacts app for the same phone number.

rmphoneformat's Issues

Crashing on launch

Hi there, I have followed the instructions and added the PhoneFormats.dat file, but the sample project throws an exception and crashes on launch for me on line 1078 of RMPhoneFormat.m, in the parseDataHandler method:

    [_countryCallingCode setObject:callingCode forKey:country];

Reason is "setObjectForKey: key can not be nil"

Any advice? Thanks!

Formatting while editing phone number

I am trying to achieve UITextField with formatted phone number while user input progress.
My algo:

1. Get only digits from phone field
2. Format digits as phone number
3. Set UITextFields text property new formatted phone number

All works fine, until user tries to edit phone number in the middle.
I can not properly save and restore selectedRange because of formatting chars " -()"

Is there any solution for this problem?

Can't find .dat file

I can't find the .dat file on this path:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator.sdk/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppSupport.framework

So, I am unable to run the project as there is no AppSupport.framework on this path.

Please Help.

Thanks in advance.

Missing dat file

i just downloaded the project and whenever i tries to run it says missing the dat file and it crashes. badly need help.

Validation?

Good work! This is very interesting and useful class.

One quick question:
How can I check if a string is valid as a phone number?

I know how to format, but couldn't find how to validate.

Thanks

Austrian number not properly validated

I tried to validate/format the Austrian number [phone]. The formatting is as in the Contacts App. But the RMPhoneFormat tells me, that the number is invalid.

Was able to make it work on my project

First, thanks for this great project! The sample file works for me but I'm not able to get it work on my project, so I created another project that works for me. Hopefully it's useful for some people. Below is the link https://github.com/changey/ECPhoneFormat . Thanks

PhoneFormats.dat

PhoneFormats.dat is issing in clone

Add CallingCodeInfo object to public interface

it would be cool if there was a way to grab the updated CallingCodeInfo object from an instance of RMPhoneFormat so the client can easily grab parsed information about the current string thats being processed.

I can make the change if you don't see anything architecturally incorrect

is it ok to use Default.phoneformat ?

Does it violate the copyright? Will Apple reject the app using this file?

Is it allowed to use the private framework?

Hi Rick,

The lib is awesome. But what I am concerning is would apple reject the app because of the using of .dat file?

Thanks so much,

Zixiao

callingCodeForCountryCode returning NULL

• Running this function on country codes from [NSLocale ISOCountryCodes]
• I suspect the Default.phoneformat file could be missing something? I am getting the file from /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator.sdk/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppSupport.framework/

    RMPhoneFormat *format = [RMPhoneFormat instance];

    NSMutableArray *invalidCodes = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

    for (NSString *countryCode in [NSLocale ISOCountryCodes])
    {
        NSString *callingCode = [format callingCodeForCountryCode:countryCode];
        if (!callingCode) [invalidCodes addObject:countryCode];
    }

    NSLog(@"invalidCodes: %@", invalidCodes);

Validation for some international telephone numbers not working

Hi,

I'm glad I found this little utility of yours, am impressed by the "on-the-fly" formatting, but am having some issues with phone number validation for some countries.

My initial tests show that the validation doesn't work at all for Italy (valid number shows as invalid) or Germany (while typing the number it shows up valid at the halfway point but not when complete).

I used the PhoneFormats.dat file from the sdk9.3 simulator.

Would it help to try a different formats file or are there known issues with these numbers?

Thanks for any help. I'd really like to get this working!

AppStore Validation Issue

Hi,

Using this lib causes issue while validating a project for App Store submission. I believe it's a false positive but could you change the name of the method so it doesn't raise a flag?

Thanks!

Indian phone number not properly formatted and validated

I tried to validate/format the Indian number (ex: [phone], [phone]). But the formatting is not as in the Contacts App and also the RMPhoneFormat tells me, that the number is invalid. Please find below screenshots (BTW, green is valid and red color is not valid in below screenshots).
