Why can’t I get FaceTime effects?

i have a iPad 9.7 (2018 Ipad) and I have the new iOS update the FaceTime effects on and when I FaceTimed my friend he had it on his iPad but I didn’t, is there a reason for this? Do I need to put something on in settings?

iPad, iOS 12

Use your Memoji in FaceTime

On an iPhone X or later, or iPad Pro 11-inch or iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation), you can create a Memoji to match your personality and mood, then use the Memoji during a FaceTime video call:

  1. Open FaceTime and make a call. 
  2. When the call starts, tap the effects button .
  3. Tap the Memoji that you want to use.
  4. Continue your FaceTime call with your customized Memoji, or tap the X button  to continue without a Memoji or go back to the FaceTime menu.

To change your Animoji or Memoji, or to remove it during a FaceTime call, repeat steps 2–4.
