CurrencyInputFormatter doesn't allow to input mantissa after entering dots/commas

Hi!

I have an issue with CurrencyInputFormatter.
I use ThousandSeparator.Comma.
When I enter a dot or comma to start entering the mantissa part it does nothing, but it is supposed to change the position and jump after the dot/comma.

It works on the iOS simulator and Android emulator if dots are entered.

But doesn't work on real devices(videos attached). On iPhone 13 TextInputType.numberWithOptions(decimal: true) opens the keyboard only with a comma, so it will be cool if the comma support will appear in the package.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15.6.1

Hi!
Two questions

  1. What is the language locale on your device? It affects the input type
  2. Can you provide a complete code snippet that reproduces the bug?

I checked it. This is not a bug. You can't enter a comma to switch to a mantissa part if you use comma as a thousand separator. The formatter cannot understand what you want. It's not listening to the keyboard events it just checks if a string contains mantissa separator or not. In this case, the mantissa separator is period, not comma so it won't switch to the fraction side. And it's not supposed to
