Recover unsaved pdf file

Hi,

I opened a pdf document with Mail and marked it up with Apple Pencil. Unfortunately I did not save the document. The iPad ran out of battery and when it restarted, the file with the annotations was gone. Is there a way to recover the file?

Thanks

iPad, iPadOS 14

How to recover a deleted excel file on iPad I have accidentally deleted an excel file from my iPad Pro (3rd gen) and would like to know if there is a way to recover it. Strangely enough, when I tap on the excel icon, I get the name of the file that I then choose to open. This produces an error message “cant open file - something went wrong .....” As it is a very important file, I would be happy for any help on the matter. Thanks
