It seems that you cannot delete an answer from the iOS app.
Is this be design or overlooked?
For the benefit of those with the privileges heres a post I needed to delete: post

@hichris123, OP doesn't need to vote to delete own answer. The original tags were correct.– mhlesterCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:37

@mhlester It's the same thing: when editing/deleting your own post, your "vote" is binding.– hichris123Commented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:38

Then why is delete incorrect?– mhlesterCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:38

@mhlester Delete is kinda an ambiguous tag... and it doesn't really describe the process of deleting a post.– hichris123Commented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:40

Hmm, the tag wiki seems to describe users deleting their own posts. I'd agree with keeping both vote-to-delete and delete, but don't know I'd lose delete entirely...– mhlesterCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:41

I am only interested in deleting personally.– Ashley MedwayCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:42

@mhlester Meta (aka MSE now) got its quirks, such tags are among those quirks, and I agree with hichris on this. The proper action being requested is vote to delete, which is missing in the app.– Shadow WizardCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:44

@AshleyMedway as a work around, you can still flag from the app, choose "Other" and explain you're using the app thus can't delete it by yourself.– Shadow WizardCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:45

Maybe the tags should just be synonymized. delete has more posts than vote-to-delete, but if it's never the right choice...– mhlesterCommented Apr 23, 2014 at 22:51
