Texts won’t sync
Hello,
Can’t get all my texts to sync with my iPad from my iPhone. iOS 11 on both devices and signed into iCloud on both devices.
Thanks

Hi ajogpz,
I understand that you'd like to set up your iPad to receive the texts you get on your iPhone. I know this is an important and convenient feature to use; I'm happy to help. I'd suggest following the steps below to ensure both devices are set up for text message forwarding:
Best Regards.

Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch
- On iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Make sure that the Apple ID at the top of the screen is the same Apple ID that you're using for iMessage on your other devices. Add a check to your phone number and email address, so that you can be reached by iMessage at both. Do the same on your iPad or iPod touch.
- On iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding, then choose which devices to allow to send and receive text messages from this iPhone. If you're not using two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, a verification code appears on each of your other devices: enter that code on your iPhone.
Best Regards.
