Format number as a currency in Power Apps text input control


It's possible to format numbers in Power Apps text input controls for better readability. To do this, connect the text input control to the OnChange property and set it to Text format. Use a context variable as a workaround to apply the formatting. For example, you can format the number to separate thousands by a comma and add a currency symbol. Remember to update the variable when the value in the field changes and use the variable as the control's Default. Additionally, clear the variable when needed, such as in the OnVisible property of the screen. This allows you to make numbers more readable in edit mode in Power Apps.
