Safari doesn't autofill two-step verification codes sent via text or email on iPad

My iPhone asks me if I want to populate security/authorization codes (two-step verification) sent to me via text messages. But when I use my iPad, I have to go to and read the code, then manually type it in. How can I change the settings on my iPad so it will do the same?

Assuming that both your iPad and iPhone are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID, ensure that you have properly enabled Message Forwarding on your iPhone...


On your iPhone:

Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your 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
