It works on our iPhones 8+ and Xs to an older iMac 2010 and MacBook 2011 and iPad Air. Android texts and Apple Texts/iMessages.

And, yes, based on the include account.  

 

It is an apple function....not Public Mobile. 

The only hitch is....texting to an android and attaching a PIC...you must do from your phone (with DATA on).

Yes you can. Send and receive texts using Public Mobile network and "can" be set up to show, and receive  on iPad, MacBook and iMac. Give me a minute and will send you a link.

If it's a cellular ipad and you put the sim in it, yes. x2. iMessages can be sent and received between idevices while on the internet. I'll leave the details of how they might interconnect to those that know Apple.

Adding - looks like someone knows more about apple.nvm
