Notes app in iOS is a powerful tool that contains useful features. We use this app for making checklists, taking notes, and jot down our thoughts. We all use the Notes app on our phones on daily basis. And with iCloud, these notes sync with other Apple devices so you can access the notes from everywhere.
But sometimes we want to access the notes from the non-Apple device. To view them on other devices you can also go to the iCloud from any browser and sign in with your Apple ID. But some people don’t like this. Here we show another method to access the notes from a non-Apple device with the help of Gmail. Here is how to access the iPhone Notes from Gmail or sync iPhone Notes to Gmail:
