iPad alert problem
Suddenly I am not getting any alerts on my iPad. I’ve made sure everything is turned on in settings but nothing helps. My iPhone was stolen last night. Could this have something to do with it?
iPhone 11, iOS 16

It may be no coincidence that you are experiencing issues if your iPhone has been stolen. It is imperative that you ensure that your AppleID account is secure:
If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support
As for your stolen iPhone, start here:
Locate a device in Find My on iPad - Apple Support
Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:
If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support
Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support
If the Find My iPhone feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating and/or remotely managing it.
However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPhone has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.
Ensure that yoh have informed your Cellular Carrier - as your Cellular service may need to be suspended and/or your IMEI blocked. Also, as appropriate, inform your local authorities of the theft.
