See other phones text alerts on my phone?

Ok so a friend of mine said she can see text alerts from her other iphone, all you have to do on the other iphone is go into settings and add your number and every time the other iphone gets a text you will see the text alert on your phone too.


Is this true? I tried google but could not find anything on this. Would love to have this on my 12 year old daughters iphone that is under my plan.


Thanks!

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

Hello MYMIXTAPEISHOT,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!


We understand from your post that you would like to add your phone number to your daughter's Message app. While you can set up Messages to forward text messages to different devices, both devices must be using the same Apple ID. Also, adding a phone number to another's Message app will allow all of your messages to show up on the other device as well, so your daughter would be able to see all of your messages from your iPhone.
