Sri Lanka — Installing on iPhone and iPad, in That Order
Set the phone up properly first - install, sign in, check the account number, place one small test order - then install on the iPad from the same Apple account, where it becomes a download rather than a setup.
Open Exness Account →On iOS the setup is done properly on one device and then repeated as a download on the other. Install on the phone from the App Store, sign in, confirm the account number in the header, build the watchlist and place one small test order - then install on the iPad from the same Apple account, where it is a download rather than a second setup.
On iOS the install is done once and lands on two devices, so the order matters: set the phone up properly first, then let the iPad follow as a download rather than a second setup.

Setting up iPhone first, iPad second
- Install from the App Store on the phone, the device most likely to be nearby during the early-afternoon European hours.
- Sign in with the Personal Area email and password and approve two-step verification if it is switched on.
- Confirm the account number in the header, then build the watchlist and place one small test order.
- Open the App Store on the iPad and install from the same Apple account - it is a download at this point, not a setup.
- Check that the position opened on the phone is visible on the tablet, which confirms both are on the same account.
Per-app settings are worth a pass on both devices: notifications, background refresh and cellular data use are switched per app in iOS settings, which matters when part of the day runs on a mobile connection. None of those choices touch the account; they change how the device behaves, not what the account can do.
With the country on UTC+05:30, the European hours open in the early afternoon and the American hours in the evening, which suits a device that travels - the phone during the afternoon, the tablet later. Losing or replacing a handset costs an install and a sign-in, not the setup itself, because the session continues wherever the account is opened next.

One setup, two screens
An iPhone and an iPad share one App Store account, so the second install is a download rather than a repeat of the setup. Doing the watchlist, the test order and the header check on the phone first means the tablet inherits a device that is already known to work.
The check that ties them together is simple: open the position placed on the phone on the tablet. If it is there, both devices are on the same account and the setup is finished.
If an iOS step will not go through
- The app does not appear on the second device: it installs from the same Apple account, so check which account the iPad is signed into.
- Sign-in is rejected: the app takes the Personal Area email and password, not a trading account number and platform password.
- The two-step code does not arrive: change the security type in the Personal Area rather than retrying the same method.
- Prices do not update on mobile data: cellular data and background refresh are switched per app in iOS settings.
- The wrong account is open: read the account number in the header, because the app reopens on the last account used.
- The handset is replaced: install and sign in again. The session belongs to the account, so nothing else has to be recreated.
Notifications, background refresh and cellular data use are device settings. They change how the phone behaves, not what the account can do.
