  1. You need to provide an Apple Pencil that works like a signature pen. As I increase the tip sharpness in the pen settings, the pen starts behaving in the opposite way — not as it should. I'm attaching an image. Please bring this kind of pen.

  2. The floating on-canvas tool palette that shows up when I squeeze my Apple Pencil Pro should show the tool options popup when I double tap a tool on it, just like the main toolbar.

  4. Tap a crosshairs icon on the toolbar to add a crosshairs placement tool (similar to the ruler) that automatically disappears after the very next object has been placed on the page at the crosshairs.

    The crosshair’s lines are measure marked and extend automatically AND continually to all four page edges (similar to the ruler). But, the node at the center of the crosshairs specifies the exact placement for the very next object placed on the page. The lines on the crosshairs locate that node relative to the edges of the page.

    To use the tool:

    1) Tap once to select…

  8. Long tap > “open link” can be a bit cumbersome whe navigating through a document. It would be smoother if you could double or triple tap to click a link. Additionally, if you need to jump between two pages quickly, it would be a lot smoother if you could then jump back to the previous page. For example, going from a to-do list with individual items, following a link to a sub task page for each item, then following a link to a notes page, then ax t the original to-do list.

  9. Please give the option for users to group and ungroup items. "Send to back" and "Send to front" is not enough. For example, a user pastes an image with text. User highlights text on image. If the image is selected (even in error), the highlight is moved to back and no longer visible. I can select "Send to front" but it is no longer aligned with the text on the image.

  10. Every Goodnotes file I bring up on my iPad has the (annoying) "Summarize" option pop up.... I do not use it, it would be great to have a "turn this off" feature. Thank you for making a great product!

  11. Implementation of an advanced AI Math Assistant in GoodNotes 6, offering features similar to MathNotes in iPadOS 18, but with additional capabilities to control and improve handwritten mathematical notes and calculations on personal PDFs. The goal is to create the ultimate AI tutor experience for all types of mathematical functions and calculations using AI.

    Details:

    1. Intelligent Text Recognition and Correction:

      • Handwriting Recognition: The AI Math Assistant should accurately recognize handwritten mathematical formulas and equations. It should automatically detect calculation errors in equations or computations, correct them, and display the correct solution. The assistant should identify mistakes in handwritten calculations and…

  12. Subject: Feature Request – Option to Lock a Default Template in “Add Page” Menu

    Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I’m a regular user of GoodNotes 6 and truly appreciate the powerful tools the app provides for organizing and annotating my study material. However, I wanted to suggest an improvement that could greatly enhance the user experience:

    📌 Feature Request: Set a Permanent Default Template for “Add Page”

    Currently, when I add a new page within a notebook, the app shows Recent Templates and inherits the current page’s attributes. While this is helpful in some cases, it becomes frustrating when working in imported…

  14. デザインの仕事をしております。
    その際にレイヤーシート機能があると打合せの際に書き換える必要なく様々なデザインをご提案できると思います。

    他デザインアプリ コンセプト や プロクリエイトにある機能にはなります。

    無料アプリ 自由ノート(freenot)にはその機能が入っているようです。
    ご検討の程よろしくお願いいたします。

  15. Widget where you can write a quick to do list!

    And an app to (at least) consult you notes in Google Pixel.

    Loving all GoodNotes experience!

  16. HI! Nursing Student here. (also I swear by GOODNOTES till the day I DIE!) While I am very aware of the AI feature "Ask Goodnotes", I wish that when I ask it to re-word something or say it in a different way, it would do that instead of literally changing the words around to form a new sentence. Like the other competitors of Ai software, NOT NOTE TAKING APPS (I love GN) have it be able to answer questions with a response not just based on the imported slides but also using sources from the web similar to the big…

  17. The full page typing version doesn’t have many fonts, just the headings. I would like it if you could make it possible to use system and imported fonts to be usable in iOS version. Not sure if android does this already. The in page typing version lets you use different ported fonts but not the basic full page typing. First photo is the normal in lined typing mode. And the second is the writing mode that supports other fonts.

  18. Non-editable time stamps are critical because they ensure the integrity and accuracy of notes, while providing a reliable and tamper-proof log of when actions or events occurred.

    This is essential for maintaining trust, accountability, and legal compliance in various systems and processes. Many of my personal notes can and have been used for this type of documentation.

    With paper notes, you can definitely tell if one note is older than another if you constantly use the same notebook.

    With electronic notes, there is no way to determine if what was written was done that morning or 4 years ago.

  20. I often need to export my comments as PDFs for my workflow and records. Currently, I could not find a direct option to export comments in PDF format. I believe adding this feature would significantly improve user experience, as it is a simple yet powerful addition for documentation and sharing purposes.

    Could you please let me know if this feature is on your development roadmap, or if there is an alternative way to export comments as PDF for now?

    Thank you very much for your continuous support and improvement of the platform.
