iPhone text messages don't appear on my Mac

Text messages arrive on my iPhone but have stopped appearing on my iMac and MacBook Air. I recently updated the iOS and OS on all three devices, could that have something to do with it? I've checked everything, following the advice I found on here from 2016. Are there any up to date instructions?

iPhone SE, iOS 14

Set up text message forwarding
1. On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. On your Mac, open Messages, choose Messages > Preferences, then click iMessage. Make sure that you're signed in to iMessage with the same Apple ID on all your devices.
2. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding.*
4. Choose which devices can send and receive text messages from your iPhone. If you're not using two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, a verification code appears on each of your other devices: enter that code on your iPhone.
