Files App (ipad)

Hi. I don't see the recent and browse tabs at the bottom of the files app (ipad on IOS 15.1). It seems I am only see recents. Can't find any options to change that. Appreciate any help?

Clearing the “Recent” folder in the “Files” application on iPad How can I clear the contents of the “Recent” folder in the “Files” app on an iPad without deleting the file from the location where the file is actually located? I tried selecting “delete” but this not only removes the file from the “recent” folder but also deletes it from the location its stored in. Or is there a way to disable the “Recent” folder feature?

IOS 1.15.7.... Losing files deleted from Recents folder When I save a file I save it to a particular folder and it also goes to the Recents folder. If I delete it from Recents it also deletes it from where I saved it. This also happens if I open a file from some folder, it goes into recent. Then I can't find it in the original folder Thanks Jane

Thanks but that doesn't explain why I am missing the browse tab at the bottom of the files app. It appears this is the case with my other ipads. Strange!
