Syncing iPad & iPhone

About a month ago my iPad and iPhone quit syncing text messages and emails. I’ve tried everything I can but no luck getting things back synced. It’s pretty annoying to clear 30 emails on one device and then again on the other. All devices are on latest available software. Anyone else had this challenge?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

They should be syncing through iCloud. Check to make sure that you are logged in using the same Apple ID on both devices, and in Settings > Apple ID > iCloud that iCloud Mail and Messages are both turned On. As well as any other apps you want to be sharing data (such as Contacts, Calenders, Reminders, etc.)
