How can I access my iPhone text messages on my iPad?

My friends use their iPads to receive their text messages from their iPhones. I have an iPhone 5 and would like to be able to access them too.

The only way to access messages on your iPad is if the sender is also using iMessage. So your friends aren't receiving typical SMS text message on their iPads, but rather iMessage messages. The easiest way to tell these apart is that SMS messages will appear green and iMessages will appear blue in your conversation thread.
To enable messages on your iPad, go to settings and scroll down to "iMessage"  to sign into your account and get it all setup

  • How can I see the iPhone text message files on my computer?

    I did a back up of my iPhone, how will I be able to see my text messages on the computer?  I would like to keep a hard copy of my text messages from my iPhone.
    Thanks.

    Best way is to extract from your phone. You need third-party software to do so:

  • My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini?

    My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.

    Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone.  You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
    How in the world would you expect to get data back?

  • How can i print out old text messages?

    how can i print out old text messages?

    As Ann said, it does depend on your phone.  One third party app that works on many phones (especially older models, but not all phones) is BitPim ( http://www.bitpim.org/ ) but it can potentially harm/brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing - use it with caution.  I have used it successfully to get texts and photos off an old flip phone that was deactivated and had no sd card.
    Newer smartphones can download apps that will give you the ability to print out texts.

  • How can I check my daugters text messages?

    How can I check my Daughters text messages?  Her boyfriend is not the kind of boy I want her seeing but she is young and doesn't know what she wants.

    It is very simple.
    depending on how old she is.  If she is a minor, then the phone is technically your property and under contract with you. If she is older then 18 then you could have some legal issues in trying to do this.
    Either way, you can install SMS Backup on her phone or one of the other SMS apps.  SMS Backup will save a copy of every text message to a gmail account and you can simply read them from gmail.
    I am not going to lecture on the ethical or legal part of this as I do track my son (for various reasons) with this (with 100% knowledge on his side)
