LR Mobile - I give up, how are we supposed to filter and sort images now?

I've been using both the desktop and mobile versions of LR since their inception. I'm not a novice user. Admittedly I haven't used the mobile version in awhile, so the latest version of the app was loaded onto the iPad when I opened it the other day.

 

I imported a batch of about 400 images from an SD card, went through my usual process of flagging images and was ready to edit, however I could find no means of sorting images into a batch of flagged images. The filter tool that used to sit at the top of the interface is not longer there, and despite spending 30-60 minutes thoroughly searching the interface, I have found no replacement means to do this.

 

The filter for sorting images is the most basic and essential UI component of Lightroom, why would it be removed?

What am I missing here?

How are you accessing those 400 images? From "All Photos", from a specific Album, or from the "Imports" option? The Filter icon should be available in all views apart from the "Imports" option. See screenshots (taken from my iPad Pro):

 

1. All Photos

2. Album

If you still can't see the filter icon, please post a screenshot from your iPad with All Photos as the source.

Thanks for your reply. You are correct about what was happening here.

"Lightroom albums" was collapsed, and I didn't think of exploring it as a means to resolve this issue. Going to the "All Photos" folder, revealed the filter icon.

I did discover that doing a text search for the word "flag" in the Import folder brought up an option to filter picked images. Not sure why the filter icon wouldn't be available here when the capability is hidden here.
