Hey capemay beachgirl,


Sounds like you're not able to make and receive FaceTime calls on your iPad, but are on your iPhone. We'd be happy to help.


If you go to Settings > Phone > Calls on Other Devices you can set your iPad up to receive regular phone calls that are received by your iPhone. For FaceTime, you'll need to just make sure you're signed into FaceTime with the same Apple ID as your iPhone. To do so, go to Settings > FaceTime and ensure you're signed into the same Apple ID here. Once you are, ensure that both your phone number and your Apple ID email address are checked for use with FaceTime.


For more help, check out: Use FaceTime with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


We hope this information helps out.


Take care!
