Find My iPad Issue - Restore From Phone

Recently purchased an iPad and setup was done via retore from iPhone using the camera. I renamed the iPad since it name itself the same as my iPhone during setup.

ISSUE:

When I leave the home the Find My App notifies me on my actual phone the 'iPad' is not with me as if it's my phone and I have my actual iPhone device with me.


Any way to correct this without a hard reset?

Open the Find My App on your iPhone.


Select the Devices tab from the inset. Each of your devices that are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID will be shown.


From the device list, tap [select] your iPad from the list. Check/disable the Notifications setting - Notify When Left Behind.
