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.
