Closing workbooks in excel on my Ipad

How do I close a workbook on my iPad? The file is private information and every time I open Excel the workbooks are open. I need to figure out how to close them completely when I’m done working on them. Thank you

Excel on my iPad does not respond to my keystrokes, it seems frozen.

When I open excel on my IPad and I attempt to enter data, excel does not respond with my keystrokes. I close Excel and reopen. On occasion this eliminates the problem. I have noticed at times that excel does not update on my other Apple devices.
