Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
My new iPad Mini 6 will not allow me to send or receive texts/messages from those who do not have an Apple product, help how do I make this work? It works on my iPhone and old iPad, why not the iPad Mini 6?
iPad, iOS 9
If you have an iPhone - and both iPad and iPhone are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID - to send SMS/MMS messages (green bubbles) from your iPad you must explicitly enable Text Message Forwarding for your iPad on your iPhone...
On your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your new iPad from the list of devices.
Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is enabled on both your iPhone and iPad:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to ON
