Quick ipad question

Hi just a quick question I am picking up a iPad today. Now I already have a iPhone 4s which I use as my mobile daily. Backs up to icloud etc When I get this ipad do I sign in with my normal iTunes name and password or what? I am unsure of this. Only be me using it. Just wasn't sure what to do to link it to my iPhone account for emails Calendar notes photos etc.

Some Clarification would be great

Thank you

Yes. Sign in with your normal apple id and it should sync with everything in your tunes account.

Once you have done this you should then be able to sync all your contacts, calendars and emails to both devices.

So basically if I do that. It will be like a mirror of both devices. Whenever I do something on one it will sync it with the other ?

That's fine. But will it also put same apps that are on iPhone onto iPad

Also. I don't think I would want whatsapp on iPad as I would not be able to use it as it Is not a phone. Or can that also be used

You can turn of automatic syncing for App purchases. At Settings > iTunes & App Store > Automatic Downloads

I'm not sure it would download Whatsapp as it's an iPhone app (I know it can be downloaded manually though)

Okay got it and now i have it restoring from my icloud back up. Although noticed some of the apps that have been installed from my icloud back up are 'iphone mobile apps' so dont look as good as ipad apps (if you know what i mean)

Also. cannot seem to google this answer.

I have 2/3 email accounts on my iPhone, should I set them up ALSO on my ipad as well. Can I do that please?

Thank you
