Number Formatting

For localization-aware number formatting in the application, format numbers using the functions from NumberFormatter.kt. With this, decimal and grouping separators stick to the user's localized phone settings (e.g., displaying 10.0 or 10,0 correctly, and formatting large numbers like 1,000 or 1.000 accurately).

Available Helpers​

You can find the following functions in com.example.purrsistence.ui.util.NumberFormatter:

  • formatLocalizedNumber: Base function for highly customized formatting (provides min and max fraction digits, and use grouping).
  • formatLocalizedDecimal: Helpful for formatting Double/Float values.
  • formatLocalizedInteger: Helpful for formatting integers (e.g. balance, price, goals), ensuring large values use appropriate grouping separators based on locale.

Usage Example​

import com.example.purrsistence.ui.util.formatLocalizedInteger

Text(text = formatLocalizedInteger(balance)) // e.g. 1,000 or 1.000
