I searched and didn't find any answers. There is a video for Infopath, but none for PowerApps. I wonder if it is possible to count names in a multiple selection people picker field in PowerApps.
Thanks,
Pei Pei
You can use the CountRows function with the SelectedItems property of the picker as the parameter. For example, if your people picker is in a combobox named 'DataCardValue6', then you can use this expression in a label to display the number of selected names:
"People selected: " & CountRows(DataCardValue6.SelectedItems)
Thank you, Carlos. I just tested and it worked. What I am trying to do is to save the number in my SharePoint list. Should I create a field to store this number or do you have any suggestions on that?
Thanks again.

If you really need to store that number in your list, then you can add an additional column in the list, and update it anytime the list of selected people is changed.
Thank you. I have added the column and set the default with your formula. After I save the form, the list is updated with the count. Great!
I appreciate your help.
