new iPad Pro M4 - Nano screen not receiving MMS messages- MacBook Air and iPhone 13 Pro receive fine

I have followed all of the advice to check settings, AppleID and restart all devices. No success. Everything else works fine

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 (and Mac) on your iPhone...


On your iPhone:

Settings > Messages >

  • Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your iPad from the list of devices.
  • MMS Messages - set to ON


Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is enabled on both your iPhone and iPad:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to ON
