Save to Pdf is missing though and very frustrating- has it been removed in 13.1.4? I wondered why Files didn’t show up for saving webpages. Thanks

There is no way to address this that I can find. And it’s always a surprise. Maybe if I were to download some PDF-handling app with features beyond the basic … Or just fix it, please.

Hi David,

Yes, you are correct that when saving a webpage as a padf the name defaults to Safari with a date/time stamp. If you save a pdf that already exists, it should retain the name when saving to the Files App.

This is great feedback for Apple Developers on creating a way to name the pdf before it saves to Files App.

It creates a default document name called ‘Safari – ‘ followed by the date and time. That’s damn near useless because you then have to go into the Files app and rename the file to something useful. Will Apple fix this glaring omission in a future iOS update?

Thanks for sharing
