Keynote Remote missing; cannot link iPhone and iPad

My iPhone16 and my iPad Air are 15 mo and 12 mo old respectively. Both are running iOS25.2.1. Both have Keynote 15.1. They are on the same Wi-Fi network. Local Network is enabled on both. Neither present me with a Keynote Remote option and I cannot link the devices. Any ideas?


iPad Air, iPadOS 26

Solved. Among the cause were that I was in Edit mode on one of the devices. It is working now. The phone was already linked, maybe carried forward from a previous iPhone/iPad combination, but the link was not working so I unlinked and linked again. It is working now.
