Use NoteSync for Two-Way Note Syncing with Google Docs

by

Looking for a way to quickly synchronize notes from your computer to Google Docs? NoteSync is an Adobe Air App that allows you to synchronize notes created on the NoteSync application on your computer with Google Docs online. When NoteSync first starts it will ask you for your Google Docs credentials so that it can keep your notes synchronized. The first time NoteSync synchronizes with Google Docs it will automatically create a NoteSync folder which will contain all of the notes created by NoteSync. If you add notes to this folder using Google Docs, the notes will be available in the NoteSync application.

NoteSync is very intuitive and easy to use, but I’ll show how I quickly created a note with the application and how it synced with Google Docs instantly.

Note: I used NoteSync version 1.1 on Windows for this tutorial.

Download NoteSync for Mac and Windows from the Adobe Marketplace for $4.99 (trial available).
