Question

I would like to let the user fill in some data to be submitted.

So I have a table with 7 cells, each of them are labeled so they know what data goes into the field.
I though about putting a UITextField in each cell, but it looks like its out of place and the user can enter up to 255 chars, so also it doesn’t display the data so nicely.

Can anybody recommend a good way to handle this kind of thing, whats the best solution in your experience?

Maybe hiding the UITextField after they are done entering data and display the data in some other manner?

Kind Regards,

You can customize a UITextField in several different ways to make it not look out of place to you: things such as location, size, alignment, font, font size, background color, and etc. You can have the text field appearance change depending on whether the text field is in the selected table row or not.

You can also have a UITextField delegate pre-check any changes to the text field, and prohibit entering a text length greater than some number of characters, or illegal/unwanted characters, etc.
