What's the best writing app that will sync between iPhone/iPad and PC?

iOS and iPadOS

I'm looking for a text editing app that I can use to take notes in the classroom and write papers for class and use some kind of cloud syncing that will automatically save my work and let me access, view, and edit on my PC. Kind of like Google Docs, but I found that to be kind of finicky with VO, though I haven't used it in awhile.
Thanks for any help!

I've used Byword for quite a while to write notes using markdown formatting. It has worked well for me. The only downside is you have to buy it for iOS and MacOS if you want to use it on both platforms. It uses iCloudSync. It will export in multiple formats.

I recently found out about the SimpleNote app on this website and love it a lot now!
It is very minimalistic yet powerful and easy to use app which provides a very good accessibility on several platforms. I use it with my iPad, Windows PC and Android devices.
It supports markdown and you even can quickly publish your nots on the web if you need to. And it is free without any distracting adds.

I will second SimpleNote! It's a fantastic, simple app with great accessibility on both PC and IOS. It's also free.

Try IA Writer which syncs beautifully between Windows and iOS. The files automatically go into the ICloud folder on Windows, where you can work on it, and continue working it on iOS afterwards.

I'm not sure if you may want something a bit more sophisticated than Simplenote for assignments, but here's my write-up on it in any case:
