iMore Question

I was able to before, and then something happened and now it won't let me. I have iOS 8, and now I just updated to iOS 8.1.3, and I'm wondering if that will change? The name would just show up green on my iPad Mini 3, the same as on my iPhone 5c, but now it just shows up red and I don't understand how to address that.

Make sure bluetooth is on both devices. Also go to settings->Messages->Text Message Forwarding on your phone and make sure that your iPad is enabled there.
