Can not transfer Messages and Notes from iphone 4s to Sony xperia z3 compact

Hello, 

.

i tried to transfer data from iphone 4s to Sony xperia z3 compact  using MAC and program "xperia trabsfer". I have done everything using instructions from sonymobile -xperiatransfer, and contacts+calendar+photos+video are successfully transferred, but i can not find Messages and Notes on Sony. 

Messages are empty (i-message was turned off on iphone).

And there are no notes in gmail foulder "Notes".

Who knows what can i try to do?

Kind regards,

Katerina

Not sure these items are compatible with the transfer program - You could try 3rd party apps but I'm unsure which if any would work

Messages

Are this messages regular texts or iMessages? 

Notes

Android has a different "notes" app(s) which I'm almost certain that's the issue

What if you transfer your notes from your iPhone to Google Keeps? copy paste each note 

Here is Google Keeps

This might be the solution:

Sync your notes from your iPhone with Gmail

@Phy I have tried this as you adviced, but it does not help: all new notes created after are kept on my Gmail account and are available on foulder Notes in Gmail, but all my 1750 old notes from iPhone are still kept on iPhone, and they do not want to move to Gmail account Slightly_smiling_Face even if I tap on the old note, change xomething, then save, then still this item is kept on iPhone, not gmail. :(((

Probably, I should try some other soft? Probably, transfer data through cable between two phones? I Made transfer via mac computer, probably should use windows?

Is there any people who successfully transferred notes or messages from iPhone to xperia?

On Mac the following situation: he see the amount of my messages and notes, so xperia transfer software can take notes and messages from iPhone but can not give it to Sony Xperia phone.
