A few questions on linking

Hi

I have a few serious questions. I have an iphone, as does my husband and I have an ipad. All three are under the same account.
If I want to be able to see the imessages on my ipad from his phone, and I click on his number either on my ipad will he get a pop up screen so he knows that a setting was changed? It was already done once where the ipad was getting the messages, so it isn't anything new, like a setting so to speak.
Also is it at all possible to be able to get the text messages also sent to the ipad?

I know the questions sound shady but it is serious.

Thank you

If iCloud and iMessage are configured with the exact same Apple ID then yes, each configured device will receive the same messages.

They sound very shady & yes he'll get a pop up. Just ask him what you want to know

In all reality there's really no real reason to share the same Apple ID. Set up a new Apple ID, enable family sharing for your apps/media, and don't worry about snooping on each other's texts.
