  1. Enable support for third-party, wireless presentation clickers (like those from Logitech) to control the existing laser pointer and navigation functions within GoodNotes, allowing users to present untethered from their iPad.

    WHY?
    The current laser pointer feature in GoodNotes is highly valuable for presentations. However, its control is limited to direct interaction via the Apple Pencil or touch screen. This forces the presenter (e.g., a teacher or lecturer) to remain physically at the iPad's location. Presenters need the flexibility to move freely around a room to engage with an audience, write on physical whiteboards, and maintain eye contact while still being…

  3. Hi! I've started using the new text document feature -- I really like it, however, I have notices that you cannot copy text from it and paste it elsewhere. I'm not sure if this is a bug/issue, but it should be possible.

    I've been having to share it to Notes app and copy from there.

    Seems like something that should be possible...
    Thanks!

  4. Dear Good Notes team,
    I’d like to make a small suggestion that I believe would make the experience even better: the ability to change fonts in the Windows version. Right now, only one font is available, and it would be amazing to personalize our notes with different styles, just like in the iOS and macOS versions. This would help make our notes more organized, creative, and tailored to each user’s needs.
    Best regards,

  5. There should be a way to decide which files are downloaded onto each device that you are using with cloud storage so that it does not take up storage on all of your devices for the same files. (like with iCloud when a file is needed it gets pulled from the cloud but it is not taking up space on the device until then)

  6. Currently, when zooming in on a note, there is no space on the left or right edges. This makes it unstable to write near the right or left edge of the note (especially on the dominant hand side) without moving your hand away from the iPad.

    Therefore, I request that even when zoomed in, a certain amount of margin be maintained as before zooming. This would allow the edge of the note to be moved as close as possible to the center of the screen.

  7. 現状ではノートを拡大した際に左右の端にスペースがなく、ノートの右端や左端(特に利き手側)に書き込みたいときにiPadから手が離れて不安定な状態になってしまいます。

    つきましては、拡大しても拡大前のように余白をある程度保つことで、ノートの端をなるべく画面中央部に移動させられるようにしていただきたいです。

  9. When auto-deselect is on, the eraser does not work. At first the erased part disappeares, only to reappear when the pencil is lifted off the IPad.
    When auto deselect is enabled, the eraser works perfectly fine, however it’s right much of a trouble to select a new tool, everytime one does a small mistake.

  10. With the new update tool bar you can’t change colors in split screen unless you move the tool bar to the side. This is so inconvenient and frustrating especially considering this was not an issue before the latest updates and change in the tool bar. With the old tool bar this was not an issue since you could scroll to select tools, size, or color.

    This is another example of why the new tool bar is awful and inefficient when working! Please let us revert to the old update! Or at the very least the old tool bar!!

  11. I would like to be able to add annotations to slides that only I (the presenter) can see on the iPad, while the audience sees a clean version without these annotations. This would allow functionality similar to the "presenter notes" function in powerpoint, but it would be better because the notes/annotations could be placed beside or layered over the related text/objects seen by the audience.

    I could use this to remind myself to discuss aspects of the slide in a particular order or add a reminder in the margin to make an important point or draw an arrow to remind…

  12. I really like the feature of being able to have as many colors as you want at a time, and being able to add or remove more colors. I would really love if this would also work for pen sizes! I use Goodnotes to take notes for class, and having handwriting sizes for heading, subheading, main bulk of notes, AND smaller details at once would be amazing without having to constantly go in and change the sizes of the pens. Even just a spot for recently used sizes would be amazing.

  13. How can I import new fonts? I use to have a lot, but now I only have standard fonts. I paid for them so it would be a waste of money if I can’t import or use them anymore. They are uploaded on my iPad and it used to work, but not anymore.

    I also don’t like it that if I select the text box, I have to tap it for every new text box. It always goes back to the lasso tool.

  14. As in one-note canvas, present thickness of the pen remains same irrespective of how much we zoom, it would be great if in upcoming whiteboard feature this issue is resolved….after zooming thickness of the pen also increases is so annoying, please consider this issue…please see attachment image below

  17. When filming live, white backgrounds are too bright and interfere with the live stream, so I want to invert white to black.
    Leave other colors unchanged.

  18. Need to change back to the way it was before the latest update. Drawing straight lines became really ******. The text box sucks big time. Text box before and how you saved the text box settings was way better before. I do like the drawing arrow features. The way it jumps automatically from text box to lasso sucks big time. I use goodnotes a lot at work (electrician) and ive been pushing more and more people to start using goodnotes in the past. But if this continues the way it is, i highly cant recommend people to jump on goodnotes.…

  19. Please create the option to turn off auto connection of connector lines to pre-defined shapes drawn with the shape tool. I understand this was designed for diagramming but I am picky about my notes being neat, organized, and symmetrical so I really like using this tool to draw my own figures as well as perfect arrows/shapes. However, the auto connect makes it very frustrating and annoying to use because my lines are redirected to connect to nearby shapes and there is no way of detaching them to still draw the lines where I need them to go. They cannot even…
