I am trying to sync my ipad and iphone 11. I want my ipad to mirror my phone. The instructions say to go to settings, and check off what I want to sync on each device; however, neither device shows the other device as an option to check. What should I do?
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 16
You can access your iCloud sync’ settings here:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > [Apps Using iCloud] Show All
Enable all the Apps and services that you wish to synchronise via iCloud; you must do this for each device.
The iPad User Guide provides comprehensive information:
Use iCloud on iPad - Apple Support
Are both your iPad and iPhone signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID account? Only when using the same AppleID will you be able to synchronise data and services via iCloud:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID]
If both devices are signed-in with the same AppleID, you should be able to see all your devices listed - and be able to enable the Apps and services that you wish to synchronise.
Yes they're both signed in to icloud with the same apple id account number. Where should I see all my devices listed?
Actually I see where under my Apple ID, I see my iPhone listed but no place to check off that I want to sync it.
