Texting

You must explicitly enable/verify Text Message Forwarding for your iPad is enabled 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

Follow these instructions:

I am not allowed to talk about this though but you won’t be able to do that anymore as Android increased its security with its new UI 3 Android 12 that won’t allow you to text from your iPad to Android using internet

And you should still be able to. However, it sounds as if the settings got messed up. Use the link I provided above and the information LotusPilot gave for instructions on how to fix it.

What app basically you are using to do so to message from iPad to Android

The built-in Messages app. If you have text message forwarding enabled on your iPhone, you can send an SMS from your iPad or Mac using the Messages app. Read the article I linked to for further information.

I was asking to confirm if it is message app or a third party app last time this happened

The last time what happened? I don't have any problems texting people with Android phones from either my iPad or Mac using the built-in Messages app. I don't use any third-party messaging apps. Did you mean to ask this question of the original poster?

Nope last time in another discussion 💬 The person was talking about the app Skype and not about the messages app I went all way through when he said I am talking about Skype. So to be confirmed and not repeat the same mistake I was confirming.

So you did mean to ask the original poster not me. Got it.

Yes
