Why can't see iCloud drive files on my iPhone?

I Can see all my files via the icliud website and on my MacBook but not on my phone. Can anyone let me know how to make them visible? ickiud drive is switched on, as are the iWork apps. I've tried turning them off, rebooting and turning them on again, as well. Any suggestion?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.1

Thanks. In Settings > iCloud > iCloud drive, there is a switch to turn iCloud Drive on and off. Below that are switches to turn each iWork app on and off. These are all on (and have been off and on to try an re-set the apps). I have lots of Pages docs in the iCloud, that I created before iCloud Drive. These are all viewable on the web and via Pages on my mac. The problem is that when I open my Pages app on my iPhone, the Pages folder in iCloud Drive shows 0 files. Any thoughts on why I can't see any files?

Just checking a couple of things....


Where exactly are the files in iCloud drive

(The forum isn't allowing me to post images at the moment, but in this screenshot, if the file is in folder A, you should have no problem seeing it on your mobile, if it's in folder B (or one like it) numbers won't automatically see the file, you will need to look for it by tapping the ➕ icon.


Additionally, have you checked in the app settings themselves to ensure that iCloud is enabled (i.e. settings > numbers > use iCloud.


Finally are you running iOS 8 on your mobile AND Yosemite on your Mac.
