Hello HubSpot community! We understand how important it is to have phone numbers stored in valid formats in the CRM. Since my last update in March 2020, we have renewed our focus to improving our calling specific functionality. We do not have a concrete timeline or details that we’re comfortable committing to yet. However, I am moving this idea to the “in planning” stage to better reflect our commitment to this improvement, as we currently are researching and prioritizing the work required to validate proper formatting for numbers stored in the CRM. We’ll continue to monitor the use cases and needs submitted on this thread and will post updates as we have them. Your patience and continued feedback is very much appreciated as we work towards delivering a solution! Thank you as always for your continued feedback and support, it helps us build a better product. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.hubspot.com/t/automatic-phone-number-formatting/3640)._
