Sync Notes between two iCloud.com accounts

My wife and I have two iCloud.com accounts.


We would like to sync Notes between our iPads: common shopping lists, etc.


Is the any way to do so, such as we have been able to do with our calendars?

iPad, iOS 7.0.3

Yes, you could do that. To do this, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, enter a different Apple ID to create the account and turn Notes on. Then do the same on the other device. You would then need to go to Settings>Notes>Default Account and set the new iCloud account as your default, and open the Notes app, tap Accounts, and tap this account to be sure you were creating new notes in the shared account.


If you have existing notes that you want to get in this account, you'll have to open each one and copy and paste the text into new notes created in the shared account.


Edit: on the second device, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and sign in with the shared iCloud account ID you created on the first device (rather than entering another new ID, which would create a forth account).
