IPAD doesn’t talk to IPhone

Bought a new IPad. Now calls/texts from non Apple phones can’t be seen on IPad. Was told to delete everything from my IPhone and IPad and start over (data saved in cloud) and then they will sinc. Not sure how to do this

iPad, iOS 12

If you would like to cleanse your iPhone and/or iPad, here's how:
