Find a document in Pages on iPad

The document manager, shown below, is what you see when you open Pages and no document is open, or when you open the Files app. You can search for a document by its title or content (including text, author name, media file names, video and image descriptions, comments, and more), or browse for it wherever you store documents (for example, on iCloud Drive, on your device, on an external storage device, or with a third-party storage provider). You can also sort documents to help you find the one you want.

The browse view of the document manager with the Sidebar button in the top-left corner. At the top right are the Add button, the New Folder button, the Icons button (to sort by name, date, size, or tag), the Select button, and the Search button. Below these are thumbnails of existing documents.
