To receive text and messages on an iPad from an iPhone, you need to have enabled Continuity. It has nothing to do with Bluetooth pairing at all. It has always been the case.
Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch - Apple Support
oops, had not seen your answer Diana.

My iPhone 4 does not pair with iPad - both devices search but do not 'see' the other. Can you help?
As has been said several times in this thread already, iOS devices will not pair to each other over Bluetooth except for Personal hotspot.
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
So I get that they won't pair over Bluetooth....is this something new? I used to have my old iPhone paired with my iPad mini, so I could receive my texts on my ipad when my phone was charging, but when i got my iPhone 6s I can no longer achieve this. I didn't use hotspot before...is this something new or has it always been the case?
Hi Gatesy12. The feature you want is not Bluetooth pairing, but Continuity. See this link: Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch - Apple Support.

This may sound convoluted but...If I have an iPad 3G with an AT&T data plan, could I not then use Skype and/or Vonage to make VOIP calls using my iPad cheaper then getting an iPhone with an AT&T plan? If so, can I use the bluetooth stack in the iPad to talk to a bluetooth headset (including micraphone)? I know I can always use the tethered Apple headset w/mic but it ***** and would prefer the wireless bluetooth option if the iPad would support it.
