Automatic converting decimals to thousands

Hi,

 

When I'm working in Excel it keeps changing my long decimal number to thousands. 

E.g. if I type 1.0835 it writes 10835 instead. Does anyone have a fix for that particular issue?

 

Kind Regards

    Is this really about Excel on mobile? If so: do you use comma as decimal separator on that device? If that is the case, enter 1,0835

        Select File > Options.

        Select Advanced.

        In the Editing section, clear the check box 'Automatically insert a decimal point'.

        Click OK.
