Merging documents feature on iPad IOS18 missing

I can’t find the combine pdfs option on my files app either in the more section or in the share options. I use this feature a lot and need it for most of what I use my iPad for, how do I merge pdfs now?

iPad Air 3, iPadOS 15

Files app 

  1. Open the Files app
  2. Find the PDFs you want to merge
  3. Select the three dots in the top right corner
  4. Select Select
  5. Choose the PDFs to merge
  6. Select the three dots in the bottom right corner
  7. Tap Create PDF


What messed me up the first time I tried the instructions is that there are two different icons with three dots. The first one you use is at the top right. The second one is at the bottom right.
