RichTextEditor relies on Web-view, the ContextMenu options displayed as in Web-View. Currently we do not have support for “ContextMenu customization”. However, we have added it to our feature request list, we will implement the mentioned feature in any our upcoming release. We will let you know when this feature is implemented. The status of implementation can be tracked through our Features Management System:

We were able to reproduce the reported issue in our side and we suspect this to be a defect. We have forwarded this issue to our development team for further analysis and we will update further details by 17th August 2021.

Hi Gautam,    
    
The reported scenario is the behavior of the Rich Text Editor and it is not a bug. The feature is support in Microsoft Word, hence the support is provided in our editor. However, we can disable this scenario in iOS but currently we do not have support for “disable text automatically convert as numbered list in iOS”. We have added it to our feature request list, we will implement the mentioned feature in any our upcoming release. We will let you know when this feature is implemented. The status of implementation can be tracked through our Features Management System:
