Track changes in Pages on iPhone
You can track changes to body text and text in text boxes, shapes and footnotes (including document and section endnotes). When tracking is turned on, changed text appears in a different colour to the surrounding text, and change bars appear in the margin.
You can review tracked changes and accept or reject them individually or all together.
Note: If the document is shared on iCloud and you turn on change tracking, only people using Pages on a Mac, iOS device or iPadOS device can edit the document. People who don’t have the Pages app and are using Pages for iCloud to collaborate can only view the document.
