list numbering continue from previous

Is there a way in Pages for iOS to have the numbering of a list "continue from previous", as is possible in Pages for Mac 5.6?

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)

No as such, but there is a workaround. If you type the complete list (or far enough to get past the point where you wish to insert something else), it will allow you to continue it.


for example


1. One item

2. Two items

3. Items


4. Etc


Place the insertion point ("Cursor") at the end of the third line, tape return twice and you will get a space with the numbering continuing and the ability to add additional text or elements and have the numbering continue. Not perfect, but it isn't quite as convoluted as it sounds and it does work.
