Why Do We Have to Hit Cmd ⌘ + Enter ↵ after Entering a Phone Number?

With phone number question types, the tendency is for people to just hit Enter to proceed. As a user, hitting Enter gives people a startling error as if they have done something wrong (which, technically they have because they did not hit Cmd + Enter). However, why is it wrong to just hit Enter? If there is no strong reason to require the Cmd key, can we please have that updated to just require Enter?

Hi @TMo If the phone question is the last question on your form, the command + enter key you’re seeing is expected. This is for accessibility reasons to be sure that the respondent is ready to submit their answers to you.

Hi Liz. That was the issue. Requiring Cmd + Enter is frustrating. Especially when I am linking together multiple Typeform (and VideoAsk) surveys.
