Recent Files Section On All Devices Using ICloud

Hello,


This is just a suggestion, you need to be able to hide or disable the Recent Files section on the devices. This is so people who do not use apple products or children can not accidentally delete, open, or change a file. Some files/contracts need to be private that in the work environment too. I still would like to see when something last opened or to filter, but I want to actually filter to do that. I do not want all things to automatically go to the recent files section. (Make it to where you have to filter to show or hide that section) See what you can do to make this happen.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Make an Enhancement Request:

Do your Part:  These are just user-to-user forums. Apple barely reads these forums as it is on their own time. So, to make a succession, you report to Apple.  Apple won't get back to you directly, but the more feedback they receive n this, the more they will know what their customer's needs are in their Apps, and what to include in updates to come. Being there is no direct feedback for Apple IDs, use the following:

How to Provide Feedback:

  1. Go Here: Feedback - iTunes - Apple
  2. Select: "An Enhancement Request" for "I Have Feedback About"
  3. Select: "iTunes Store" for "Enhancement Request"
  4. Comment: on why you think this should be an option, and how it can help users out there, such as yourself.
  5. Proceed from there as necessary
