After downloading the iOS 14 update, I noticed that the periods in various apps (e.g., Calculator, Nike Run, etc.) were swapped with commas. Therefore, when using the Nike Run app, for example, a 7.15-mile run now reads as a 7,15-mile run. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what can I do to return to the periods? Thanks!
iPhone XS Max, iOS 14
i know you said that you tried all of the suggested fixes, but I double checked my region and I accidentally had it set to Ecuador. I switched it back to United States and the problem was fixed. Hope this helps!
Hello, tom_dekalb!
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you're seeing the periods swapped with commas in some applications. First, check out this article to Set the language and region on iPhone and be sure your settings are correct for your location.
Next, follow the steps in this article to Restart your iPhone. Also, check out this article to Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and be sure your device is running the latest software version available.
Let us know the results and have a great day!
I restarted my phone, and did everything else suggested in the answer from Apple. I still have only commas available in many apps. It is even happening on my Apple Watch! This is annoying, because I can’t send an etransfer for $73.61. I can typed that in, and it became $7361 because the period on the app has been replaced with a comma. It is so annoying. I have to round up when sending money. Not happy! What’s the fix??
Yes! I went into settings and found that my Region was set to somewhere that French is the primary language. So I changed it to my actual Region and now I’m all good! Check your settings (I believe it’s in keyboard).
Kim I am having the same issue and tried all the fixes but nothing. Any help appreciated!
I’m having the exact same issue did you ever find a way to fix yours?
Sorry! Settings, General, Language and Region. Choose your correct one and it should work!
