Can’t get back to Pages start page on iPad Air

I want to begin a new document in Pages on my iPad, but when I click on the Pages icon I just get a page full of recent Pages documents. How can I get Pages to start up from the very beginning where I choose a template and start typing a new document?

I’m using an iPad Air running OS 18.1.1

iPad Air, iPadOS 18

Deleting an empty page in Pages app in iPad This should be super easy. Go to thumbnail pages, tap on the empty page, tap delete or cut. But I am encountering an issue (a bug perhaps). When I tap on the empty page, and tap delete, it generates a prompt Remove all content? All content in your document will be removed and replaced with an empty page. Then you tap Cancel or Remove. Regardless of whether I tap remove or click delete on the keyboard, it does delete ALL contents within the entire document instead of just deleting that one single empty page. My iOS is 16.7.2 This is so super annoying. If you can please help. Thank you in advance.

How do insert page numbers on pages in iPad Pro 16.6? Very frustrating. When I click on “documents” all i get is the option to include a Password. All I want to do is having pages numbers automatically inserted at bottom of page. Can’t find headers and footers. Google keeps taking me to apple support instructions that don’t apply.
