New IPad

I set up my husbands new IPad for him. In messages it has my IPhone number and I would like to change it to his. How do I do this without impacting our other Apple devices?

Does he have his own Apple ID? If not, he needs one. Ideally, you would reset the iPad and remove it from your ID, then set it up with his ID.

Change ipad Mini 4 registration from husband over to wife's name and phone number For some reason I can't remember, I originally set up my wife's iPad Mini 4 with my name and phone number. We are now about to change all the apps and data over to a new iPad Mini 6, but would like to her name and phone number on the new device. (When my iphone receives a call, it simultaneously rings on her iPhone, which I would like to fix.) Easiest way to fix? Just received new Mini 6, but haven't yet set it up.
