    What is the process on the Android application for deleting a bullet?

    Edit: The answer is that you can swipe bullets left and right to reveal a menu.  It's one of those UI features that you don't obviously know if you don't use it, but once you do it's intuitive. Still, would help if there was some clue about it being an option.

    How does one delete a bullet on the iPad app? I've looked for menu options, long pressed the item and tried the right click using the Magic Keyboard, all to no avail. It would be helpful to have some documentation for differences between the mobile versions and the Web/desktop versions.
