While it's not possible to edit .pages and .numbers files on our website, you should be able to edit them on your iPad.

Thank you.

You can browse your Dropbox files directly within the Pages and Numbers apps. Just add Dropbox as a location within the Files app.
Thank you so very much! I have been trying to find a way to make Dropbox more functional for my purposes for many, many years. Have asked repeatedly if there was a way do edit my docs in Dropbox & this solution was never mentioned to me. Can't thank you enough!
