I have an IPad and an IPhone. I’m signed in with my Apple ID to both. I’m only receiving ask to buy requests on my iPad and not my iPhone. I need to receive them on my iPhone. Don’t care if they come to both but really need to receive on my iPhone. I use both devices but don’t always have my iPad with me. Couldn’t find any answers to help with this issue.
iPhone 6, iOS 11
