When prompting the user to enter a input, I would like a keyboard that shows numbers 0-9 and a decimal point to appear. I have tried pattern = “tele” and “[0-9}*” for inputs, but both only give me a keyboard that displays numbers but not a decimal point. Any fixes?
for that you can use type number, but then you get automatically some extra keyboard buttons.
Keep in mind in ther countries you need a comma instead of a point to seperate decimals ;).
so i would use the number input and add a custom validation function (using parseFloat() in combination with a number formatter or something like that - for prices i can recommend accountingjs where can set seperator character and so on --> http://openexchangerates.github.io/accounting.js/).
Accountingjs is also a good solution for any number formatting, because you can set the format as easy you want and configure the output to not include currency and so on 
This did not work for me in IOS just crashes and/or freezes
