I am trying to use kendo-grid for angular on iOS (tablets) with kendo grid for angular.
I've noticed that grids dont show the context when pressing and holding on a line. I looked and saw that this was asked before, and wanted to know if there is a native solution for this.

Hi Stanislav,

Indeed, I can confirm that the information in the linked forum thread is still applicable due to the fact that iOS does not trigger a contextmenu event upon long press on mobile devices. On that note, as suggested in the comment from the forum thread, the developer can show the ContextMenu on click of a Grid cell, instead of a long press.

Here is also a StackBlitz example that demonstrates how to display the ContextMenu component when clicking the Grid cells:

I hope the provided information clears up the matter.
