Sending a popup message to iPad

[Jetheat]

Is there a way, or is there an app which I can use from my Mac or from my iPhone which can send a message to my iPad (like a popup)?

When my daughter is using the iPad and I wanna send her a message from my phone, I'd like to catch her attention without resorting to SMS or email (which she doesn't use anyway).

Any ideas?

Use Messages app. She may not "use" them, but if you set the notifications settings to display on all screens with a permanent banner, she will be forced to actively see them... maybe that's a solution? I'm not aware of any software that is EASIER than that.

If I use the messages app, it would display all the messages I get on my own phone. That's why I was looking for another separate solution.

Ahhh. I see the problem. Could you use one of these silly-assed social networking apps like TikTok or something like Slack?

I don't think those pop up a message on screen.

They pop up a notification. For that matter, you could use Facebook Messenger or any social/chat app.

How does that make a proper popup come and stay on screen?

You can adjust how they appear and how long the stay on screen in the Notification Settings.
