Can I send sms messages from my iPad Pro 2021?

I am not able to send or receive messages to/from my android friends on my new iPad Pro 2021. Is there a setting that would fix this? I purchased the iPad Pro as a replacement to my old MacBook but this might be a deal breaker as I send/receive messages on my computer while at work.

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

Not with an iPad alone.

You need an iPhone set up with call and message forwarding, basically, turning any iPad into a call and text meaasging remote device to an iPhone.
