Syncing texts from phone to tablet

I have a galaxy s4 and a galaxy tab 4 wifi only. Can I sync my texts to my tab and text from my tab?

Re: Syncing texts from phone to tablet

Does the S4 have a SIM card and regular phone service? If yes, and you are using your carrier number through your carrier's regular texting feature, then no, the texts will not sync.

The way to fix this is to replace your carrier's standard texting feature with an internet data based texting app, like Google Voice or Whatsapp or others you can find in the play store (some of which assign you a new phone number).

If your carrier is Verizon then you can use the Verizon Messages app works great I am using it on my nexus 7 2013 even with the phone turned off you still receive your sms & mms on the tablet. Hope this helps

I have the same devices and use Mighty Text from Google Play Store. It uses your wifi and you can text from your tablet.
