Press enter to exit autocomplete pairs

[rigmarole]

Someone wrote a plugin that can help with this:

Press enter after parentheses, or quotation marks to exit these (just like the [[ ]] for links)

Using the Delete keys while cursor is within the empty auto paired quotes (or other formatting) seems to always works for me. However, you are right, when using the Backspace key that it will delete the character before the cursor thus removing the paired formatting character as well. So in this particular instance, the Delete key is the way to go. Thanks.

(I have not tried it.)

I have also renamed your topic because “a more thoughtful mobile editor” is not descriptive.
