Notification of messages

When I read a message on my iPhone the notification on my iPad does not clear as read message. I have checked all my settings on both devices from research that I have done and nothing works. It was all fine until a recent iOS update. Any suggestions?

iPad, iOS 10

Hi Dgkoss,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today.


Which iPad do you have? Is it still running iOS 10? Can it be updated further: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.


Switching on Messages in iCloud on each device should resolve this: Use Messages in iCloud but it is not available on iOS 10.


"On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


  1. Go to the Settings app.
  2. Tap your name.
  3. Tap iCloud.
  4. Turn on Messages."


Have a fantastic day!
