sync ipad and iphone imessage

Since getting new iphone 12 mini, messages coming to my phone only sometimes make it to my ipad?!

I have forwarding set from phone to ipad. I understood why they weren't when I didnt' have that set. But now, sometimes they come through and sometimes they don't.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14

Hey courgarwoman,


We see that your iPhone messages are being sent to your iPad, and we'd like to help!


You may need to disable iMessage from your iPad in order to prevent iMessages from being synced on both devices. To do this, go to Settings > Messages > disable iMessage.


Let us know if this step helps!


Best regards.
