The recognition speed for drawing perfect lines, curves, and shapes is too slow.
The recognition speed for drawing perfect lines, curves, and shapes is too slow. Would it be possible for the software to automatically identify the image and turn it into a perfect shape after I draw a relatively rough line? Otherwise, a lot of time will be wasted waiting for the drawing to become a perfect shape.

Apple Pencil Integration
Goodnotes should add a native option that lets the Apple Pencil Pro double tap switch between specific tools like pen and shape with no menu steps, no delays, and no forced use of Apple’s default actions. The app should give users a simple tool toggle setting inside the Apple Pencil menu, where you pick two tools and the double tap flips between them. The app should also expose these tool switches as actions in the Shortcuts app so users can build custom automations. Adding this feature would make Goodnotes feel more fluid during fast sessions and would use the Apple…

Multi-color / Dual-color pen strokes
Hi GoodNotes Team,
I'm a student who uses GoodNotes daily for my lectures and note-taking. I had a creative idea that I think would make the writing experience much more fun and unique.
Currently, the pen tool only writes in one solid color. What if there was an option for a "Multi-color" or "Bordered" pen? For example, a pen stroke that has one color in the center and a completely different color on the outer edges.
I’ve attached a sketch I made to demonstrate the idea (a light blue stroke with red edges, and another with purple edges). I think…1 vote -
I-cloud Synchronization Issue
Subject: Issue with macOS Update and iCloud Synchronization
I am experiencing an issue where my Mac is unable to update, citing incompatibility with the latest version. As a result, iCloud synchronization is not functioning.
The system indicates that macOS 14.5 or higher is required. However, even though I am currently using macOS Tahoe 26.4, the update will not proceed.
I would greatly appreciate a prompt resolution to this matter. Thank you.

From home page, a button to return to existing open tabs
Easy to go back to home page to find another file. But something I just want to go back to my existing open tabs. You have a home button, put a return to editing button. Right now the quickest way which is annoying is to open some random file I see on my home page to reaccess my tabs. And then I have to close that random open file.

Bring back the keyboard button for adding text to a page instead of hiding it in the context menu under "start typing"
Please bring back the keyboard-button you can see on the screenshot. I know there are the new text documents, but especially in school context it is necessary to have the ability to add text to the whole page in a notebook easily.
Thank you!

Create tabs on the side for easier access to the page/content
In Nursing school, we take a lot of notes. I'm sure other subjects else too. But I wish I didn't have to scroll through dozens of pages to find something. I wish I was able to add a little tab on the side, color code it and name it. I know you can "flag" It but it's not very helpful because I have to open the side and then try to find the one page I flagged.
For example. If I download a book - I have to scroll through all the pages to look for the chapters. If the…1 vote -
Apple Pencil shortcuts
It would be very practical to be able to choose the tools that are associated with the double-tap function of the Apple Pencil. Simple yet very efficient feature for a smoother workflow while writing.

Video clips and more writing tools and drag and drop of specfic page to my mind map
Everything is good I mainly use Goodnotes for mind mapping my lectures the only hindrance I faced that I was not able to add video clips to my notes, and also when I import PDF of my lecture notes in good notes. I can’t just drag and drop pages from like a specific slide to directly into my Notes, which is like a another hindrance because I have to take screenshot again and again and then put it back in. Also, this one is not a criticism, but a suggestion that there could be more tools for writing. It would…

Tabs
Making the tabs bar condensed while writing so that there’s more room on the screen for the paper. This would also make the new toolbar more useful!

iOS Shortcuts Support for Opening Multiple Files in Split View
Add the ability for the Shortcuts app on iPadOS to open multiple selected documents simultaneously in Split View.
This feature would allow users to choose specific files and define them as a paired workspace within a Shortcut. When the Shortcut is run, the selected documents would automatically open side-by-side in Split View, eliminating the need to manually open and Split View for each file.

Make a visible scrolling bar
it's really annoying to have to leave the pen to scroll with the mouse because the scrolling bar is invisible. WHY?! i want to scroll with the bar on the side without putting away the pen to grab the mouse and scroll with the wheel. yes the scroll bar reappears when i scroll, but it's useless because it disappears after 2 seconds and does not appear in any way other than wheel scrolling with the mouse. VERY ANNOYING! scrolling should be available in few ways (like Adobe Acrobat) but here for some reason you only can scroll with the wheel.…

Added page will be in the same rotation orientation of the previous one
Because many teachers speak quickly, the best way to take notes in class is to upload the PDF slides and annotate them directly. Most of the time, these slides are in landscape orientation (wider than they are tall). However, when you want to write your own summaries or do homework, it's much more convenient to use portrait orientation (taller than they are wide).
Currently, every time I add a new page after the slides, I have to manually rotate it, which is very annoying. It would be so much quicker if I only had to rotate the first added page,…1 vote -

Add visible pen movement/position (Cursor/Trail/Virtual Pen) for better student orientation
I recently started using Goodnotes in my classroom as a replacement for worksheets under a document camera. While Goodnotes works very well overall, I noticed a critical limitation for classroom use:
When using a document camera, students can see my hand and the pen. This provides natural orientation: they immediately recognize when I start writing, where I am on the page, and when they should follow along.
In Goodnotes, this orientation is missing. Students often do not immediately realize that writing has started.
Students cannot clearly see where on the page I am currently writing or drawing. This is especially…1 vote -
goodnotes cloud
오랜시간동안 아이폰과 아이패드를 사용하면서 굿노트를 사용해 왔는데 최근 업무로 인해 안드로이드 스마트 폰을 구매 했습니다.
굿노트를 안드로이드와 아이패드에서 동기화 해 사용하고 싶어 pro 버전 구독도 했지만 goodnotes cloud 사용이 불가능해 연동이 안됩니다.
초대 링크도 받지 못해 사용할 수 없는데 대단히 불편합니다. 가능하다면 goodnotes cloud 링크를 보내주시거나 빨리 기능을 업데이트해 사용할 수 있게 된다면 좋겠습니다.
Hello,
I have been using GoodNotes on my iPhone and iPad for a long time. Recently, due to work, I purchased an Android smartphone.
I subscribed to the Pro version because I wanted to use GoodNotes on both my Android device and iPad with synchronization. However,…

Don’t group tools together, or make a shortcut bar
Having to press the icon twice instead of once to use a tool is time consuming. I need to take lecture notes and switch between tools quickly. Another way is to make a shortcut bar for tools with specific settings.

TextDoc Formatting Features - Font Size & Aligning/Indenting
TextDoc
I have been a GoodNotes user for several years throughout my undergraduate time and plan to continue using it through graduate school. I have fallen in love with the TextDoc option, but there are several issues. First, when exporting a TextDoc to a PDF, there is very little room on the "printed" PDF, especially if any headings are used, which is an integral feature for lengthy notes. If DevOps has any way to ensure the headings are kept while the overall size is altered when imported. This could be solved by changing the Text or Font size. Second, another…

Let us customize the contextual menu accessible with Apple Pencil Pro
With every update, I feel like I’m losing out on convenience.
Now the Lasso tool – one of my most-used tools – has been pushed even further down the context menu, in favour of other fancy tools that I never use.
The Lasso tool must be right at the top of the list!As not all of us have the same needs: please let us customise the context menu so that everyone can adapt it to their personal requirements. Thank you very much!
