Change file extension within Files native App I honestly can’t believe that M1 iPad Pros from 2021, which as a device, feels even Pro-er that the MacBook, is incapable of changing a simple file extension. I mean do I need a computer to do that? Please, I don’t accept a “Create a Shortcut” solution, COME ON! Is a simple thing that ALL files manager should do! Is a Pro device, not an Almost-Pro one.

I’m on ipadOS 17.4.1, and I can’t see view options in “Recent’s”. Is it only for certain folders or something?
