Word app read only to editable on iPad

Hi

When I open my Word document in the Word app/Microsoft 365 app on my iPad, it says that it is read-only, the same thing happens on my phone. However, I am able to edit the same document when I open it on my laptop. How do I make the Word document on my iPad editable? Are there any settings?


Awaiting for assistance


Thank you

iPad Air, iPadOS 16
