Smarty plan from phone to Cellular ipad

Hi Guys so I move my sim from my Daily Android phone to my iPad.

Unfortunately when someone calls me my phone rings not my tablet.

It's as though the tablet is not a Cellular one but it is.

Can't see a tab for calling as no keypad on show.

    IanNico_2380514 Have you got an app for taking the calls?

    The iPad needs data - in your case it will take it from wifi or from cellular data via a sim. As WelshPaul  says, it won't act as a phone - unless you have some appropriate app.

      I believe IanNico_2380514 wants to receive (and possibly make) calls made to the mobile number attached to the SMARTY SIM when it has been inserted into their iPad. You cannot do this; the Apple iPad isn't and can't be used as a mobile phone. No app will allow this.

    You cannot use an iPad as a cellular phone. It does support data, iMessage and Facetime though!
