Allow family sharing again please
Since GoodNotes 6, family sharing via the Apple iOS app store is unfortunately no longer supported by GoodNotes.
This is really frustrating because it means that we can no longer use the app as a family. That's why I would like to suggest that the developers reconsider supporting family sharing in GoodNotes 6 as well.

Es nervt, so kann doch kein Produkt auf den Markt gebracht werden. Es funktioniert keine Familienfreigabe und keine konsistenten Informationen zu finden.

I also read this post just now and still can’t update family sharing with full purchase.
We have enabled every purchase sharing in each family member apple id, tried sign out, uninstall, but nothing worked… -

Ich möchte Goodnotes für mein 11jähriges Kind kaufen. Wie geht das? Familienfreigabe funktioniert nicht, mit seiner eingeschränkten Apple ID auch nicht. Es kann doch nicht sein, dass man Goodnotes erst ab 16 Jahren nutzen darf!!!

Meine Tochter kann nicht auf Good Notes 6 wechseln. Bitte erlauben Sie die Familienfreigabe.

So glad this has been put in, we’ve been family sharing since it was updated and I’m so happy my children can finally be on the same version of GoodNotes with me. It was a little complicated to do as I’d purchased the full version and not the subscription, but I’m so glad it’s done. Thank you for listening.

@gn support: make sure that we can use it!

Making this change without signalling anything to the users is a horrible way to to treat your customers! I bought good notes 6 thinking I could share it with my wife like with 5, and spent a lot of time troubleshooting it since it said on the AppStore that family sharing is supported.
My view of the app has greatly soured now after spending so much money on the new version with the only important features for me being the UI changes (would’ve been easier swallowed if I could share it) -

Please bring back Family Sharing. It's a disgrace that GN 5 users have to pay a lot for the new version, which didn't contain many new features, and it makes it more difficult to use GN 5, so you should switch ;-(
But since our family of four has had family sharing removed, not only am I disappointed, but we're already thinking about switching note-taking apps. We've always been ardent supporters of Goodnotes, but not anymore. -

Agree, asked for refund since family share is no longer possible. Back to Notability

I wasn't even notified about the changes, I bought the app as family admin because the other family members needed it. Now I have the app and don't need it and the rest of my family has not? Not even signaling this restriction when purchasing the app is definitly not a fair way of introducing such a change and gives me a bad feeling when thinking about Goodnotes. Also, purchasing the app 6 times to use it as complete family, that's just way to expensive for an notetaking app?

I was about to pay for the suscription and share the app with my familiy, but not being able to do so is holding me up, I am going to start looking for other options if GN6 don't reconsider their family sharing policy.

Bring back family sharing, please. It is already outrageous that GN 4+5 users have to pay a lot for the new version, which didn’t include that many new features. But since family sharing has been taken away from our family of 5 I am not only disappointed, but we are already thinking about switching note-taking apps. We have always been ardent supporters of GN, but not anymore.

I got it for myself now for one year, after that my family will say goodbye to goodnotes. if until then the pricing model will not change.

We‘re a family of 5. Goodnotes 6 w/o Family Sharing is way too expensive for us and definitely not worth it. Please rethink your pricing model.
