Is there a way to show the numbers first on the soft keyboard for Android?

Question

I've tried every variation I can think of for input type and raw input type, but I can't get it so that the number keyboard shows first, but then allows you to toggle back to the text keyboard. Right now if you specify text|number, or number|text, the letters always show first, and then you have to toggle to the number keyboard. Is it possible to do the opposite?

Answer 1

根据我的研究和Bert B.的评论，没有办法实现这种跨设备兼容。

Answer 2

Just add

android:inputType="number"

into your EditText field. This should automatically trigger the keyboard to show the number pad first.
