@Noppey the
integeroption is added in the master branch (of@nativescript/corea.k.a.tns-core-modules) and the Playground is using the latest official version of the modules. So this is the reason why the Playground is failing. At this very moment, you could use theintegeroption by installing the next of the modules in a locally created project.This feature will be published officially with version 6.4.0 of the modules.

Ran this line in my own project:
npm i tns-core-modules@next --save-dev
In package.json I now have devDependencies:
"tns-core-modules": "^6.3.0-next-2020-01-14-155346-03"
But I still get the same exception, using my Android device (Samsung S8)

@Noppey the project is using the scoped packages. So in your case you need to update both the scoped package (@nativescript/core) and the compat package (tns-core-modules)

Ok that kind of works, but now it shows the input text as hidden (dots), as what I would expect in case of type="password".

So on iOS it works fine, but on Android it's presented as a password field (dots)

@Noppey thanks for reporting this one! I will post a PR fixing this bug.

I've updated to "tns-core-modules": "^6.3.0-next-2020-01-16-110603-01", but the problem is still there.
I thought the @next would be the current master version, and since this is merged I expected it to work.
Is there another step that I have to wait for before I can test this functionality?

What steps are required before I can start using this functionality including the password-bugfix?
