Text iMessage Synching issues

Text Messages received on my iPhone have suddenly stopped showing on my iPad and Mac. All are signed into same iCloud account. I have turned off the account and signed back in and turned off the iPad and restarted. All to avail. Any helpful hints please.


iPad, iPadOS 16

Set up text message forwarding

  1. On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. On your Mac, open Messages, choose Messages > Preferences, then click iMessage. Make sure that you're signed in to iMessage with the same Apple ID on all your devices.
  2. On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding.
  3. Choose which devices can send and receive text messages from your 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.
