Solved: SIM card in iPad

Pennylein · ‎19-12-2020

Hi!

the SIM card in my iPad isn't showing the phone number in Sertings and I can't send or receive texts from that number. Where am I going wrong please?

You can still send and receive iMessages.

Settings >Phone >My Number and add your number. Save it and reboot then go to Messages and set your number as send and receive.

You can't send text messages from an ipad.
The sim is only for data when you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
