FAQ
Q1: How does the automatic country code detection feature work in forms?
The automatic country code detection feature uses the location of the person accessing the form to display the relevant country code in the Phone field automatically. This is done by detecting the user's IP address and matching it with the appropriate country.
Q2: Can I manually select a different country code if the detected one is incorrect?
Yes, the Phone field with the “Enable Country Picker” option allows users to manually select a different country code from the dropdown if the automatically detected one is incorrect.
Q3: Does the automatic country code detection work on all devices?
Yes, the feature works across all devices, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones, ensuring a consistent user experience regardless of the device used to access the form.
Q4: Will the automatic country code detection still work if the user is using a VPN or proxy?
If a user is using a VPN or proxy, the detected country code may reflect the location of the VPN or proxy server rather than the user’s actual location, which could result in an incorrect country code being displayed. Users can manually adjust the country code if needed.
