How to transfer notes from “iPhone” to “iPhone”: instructions for working with Notes application in iOS

“IPhone”, starting with the first generation, has become an excellent replacement for the classic diary. Recording in an ultramodern compact communicator was much easier and more reliable. Over time, many have already managed to move to more advanced gadget models or migrated to the Android camp, which raises the question of how to transfer notes from iPhone to iPhone or other platforms.

ICloud sync

The most obvious, most convenient method that does not require any labor costs is, of course, online synchronization using the cloud service built into the smartphone. Before transferring notes from “iPhone” to “iPhone”, you need to connect both gadgets to the same Apple ID account. You can enable synchronization as follows:

1. Go to the “Settings” application on the home screen.
2. Open the iCloud submenu.
3. Sign in with your Apple ID account.
4. Toggle the toggle switch opposite the “Notes” application.

The identical procedure must be done on the second “iPhone”. Data will be transferred automatically over the Internet. They are stored in the cloud on an ongoing basis and can be synchronized even after the phone is completely “cleaned” or broken, so iCloud is strongly recommended.

Some users prefer to sync notes using third-party servers. In this case, it is necessary to establish exactly which cloud services are connected to the iPhone, and which of them are allowed to use the Notes application.

Information about those can be found in the application settings in the “Accounts” submenu. Before transferring notes from “iPhone” to “iPhone”, it is extremely important to select identical servers for synchronization, both on the sending and receiving devices.
