On macOS you can merge PDFs together using the built-in Preview tool. You can merge PDFs on iOS as well, using the built-in Files app.

Merge PDFs on iOS

  1. Open Files.
  2. Navigate to the folder with the PDFs you want to merge.
  3. In the upper-right corner, tap Select. Tap each PDF in the order you want them to appear as a merged PDF.
  4. On iPadOS, tap More in the lower-right corner. On iOS, tap the three dots icon.
  5. Then, tap Create PDF in the menu that appears.

I had rarely the desire to merge PDF’s, but good to know.
What I would like to know is very basic. How to search for text (aka magnifier glass) in PDF files opened in iOS and iPadOs Preview?

It doesn’t seem possible to do that in Preview (viewing it in Files). But you can search PDFs if you open it in Books.

I know that is not possible, but why when it is possible in macOS Preview?

I have a long list of such WHY’s… Instead of launching each year a new iOS version, Apple should bring useful improvements and slow down on emojis, memojis and kakojis…
