When I use numbers it converts to a bullet point

[TimeToBreakFree]

I’ve noticed a few times over about 4-5 months (so not just recently) that if I have some points to make the first point always converts automatically to a bullet point.

Let me demonstrate:

1. This will be a bullet point
2. This will be number 2
3. This will be number 3.

I’ve done a screenshot of the message before I hit POST and you will see that it aligned itself perfectly well before I hit POST.

This is the screenshot

Hi OP

Can we just check what device and browser you're using?

(ignore below)
1
2
3

Yea I've noticed this too!
I use the app on an iPhone

These are annoying me in a different way, I am on the 26 books thread where a typical post would be

14 - Harry Potter etc

But if you use a full stop after the number, whatever number it is, it converts it to number 1 of a bullet pointed list, I have to remember to use a colon or hyphen instead now. We don't need autoformatting.

Not that different actually, but the fact that it always reverts to 1 instead of 14 or whatever is annoying.

I am also using iOS app on the iPhone 11 pro.

That IS annoying! I find my word document alter formats like that on my MacBook Air as well though. I've tried to google my way into a remedy, but can't seem to find the right word searches for it so it remains as much a problem it ever did.

Hi all

This is quite a common formatting tool but we're happy to raise the feedback.
You should be able to remove the numbered bullets, is this something you're able to do?

These autoformatting things are always one of the first things I switch off when I get a new phone, new version of Word or whatever, they are really annoying. But I guess there is a demand for them, couldn't it be something you could switch off in the settings? I'm using the mobile site not the app.

Remove it... how?
