Verification code pop up


I replaced an older ipad pro with a new one. I set up the new one using a back up of my existing ipad.

It is sending and receiving all the messages just fine. It is in sync with my iphone Messages.

All have enabled "delete after use" (Settings -> passwords -> verification code options )


The problem:

When I need to request a verfication code (safari browser) on the new ipad, the verification code is not popping up on the new ipad's keyboard or above the open Safari page. My old ipad and my showed the "received" verification code when i am on the Safari page. I tap the code and it gets entered into the safari browers field.

On the new ipad, i have to leave Safari, copy the code from iMessages and then return to Safari and past it in. It instantly is received by iMessage but it never "pops up" as a displayed code when I am waiting for it in Safari.

I am i missing some Setting to enable the code to pop up while in Safari?

iPad, iPadOS 18

Ensure that both your iPad and iPhone are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID. Check the following settings:


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
