Hi Hol77,


If you are not getting messages on your iPhone that you are on your iPad, as iPad uses iMessage, check the settings on both device to make sure iMessage is turned on and have the same Apple ID. To do this go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on both devices and make sure it is the same.


Another option would be to turn on Messages in iCloud if you are using the same Apple ID by following Set up iCloud for Messages on all your devices.


Take care.
