Phone Number Input

[jowhee3011]

When I try to add a person with a phone number containing 8 digits with the first 4 and last 4 digits separated by a space, starting with 8 or 9, it returns an error message which tells me what I already have done.

I expected the command to pass through but it has failed.

Potential problem: User may be confused and are unable to add a contact and use the entire application.

Team's Response

Error message have clearly stated that phone number should only contain number. User should not be confused if they have added a space to separate the first 4 and last 4 numbers.

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Thank you for your response. I understand that the error message specifies that the phone number should contain only numbers, and I appreciate the clarification.

However, for many non-technical users, spaces in phone numbers are not usually treated as characters, especially when they are used as a separator for readability (e.g., 1234 5678). This common practice may lead to confusion, as users might not expect the space to cause an issue.
