SharePoint iOS App / mobile browsing does not allow editing News / Pages

As a News Contributor or Page Author is there a way to edit pages from the SharePoint app or from a mobile browser?

 

Use Case, I am a site owner and created a news item from the SP App and published it. Great experience! I noticed after I published a typo in the Title. I cannot edit that without getting to a desktop computer.

 

I tried accessing edit options via the iOS app and the Safari browser and neither allowed editing the page.

    Thank you! A item already exists for this in the user voice.

    If you open the site in the browser, turn it so it goes landscape, the edit button will show up.
