I am trying to remove some files out of the 'recents' view of the files iOS app without actually deleting the file. According to this other forum, this is not possible: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/file-app-how-to-clear-recent-file.2069648/

Is this still the case? Or maybe possible in the meanwhile?

My 'recents' list is currently too long, for this view to be of any help for me at this point. Ideally, I can curate individual items that aren't relevant and keep the rest of the list, but if needed - can I just purge all recents and start cleanly?
