Fix outlines
The outlines tab is not as helpful as it once was. Whenever I use an imported pdf (usually converted from a powerpoint or word document), the outline is filled with text from every single slide, making it hard to find ANYTHING. I can unselect 'Show pdf outline', but the default view is the cluttered, unhelpful mess.
Then, when I add my own outlines, they are in haphazard order. Please see the attached images. I have created these outlines in page order, but they seem to appear in a random order. Why??!
Please make the outlines feature more functional by making…

Toolbar Default Pen Setting
"Currently, Goodnotes does not have a specific feature that automatically sets the toolbar to start on the Pen tool when switching between files. The Pen tool is the first tool in the Handwriting Toolbar and can be selected manually, but the app does not remember or default to the Pen tool automatically upon file switching," Goodnotes Support.
It would be great if a toolbar customization update allowed you to make the pen feature the default tool when switching between documents instead of the lasso.

Add a way to delete downloaded whiteboard templates from marketplace
You can repeatedly download whiteboard templates for some reason which caused my “imported from marketplace” section to be spammed with the same few templates. Would be great to have a way to delete them

Floating sticky notes in margins
l want to request sticky notes or comments that can be in the margins or in the sidebar, independent of being linked to a single page. Imagine having a sticky note on your desk with reminders or instructions that you put next to your notebook. in this particular context, I want to have the instructions for an assignment posted outside of the page that I can refer to at any point to make sure I’m on the right track.

Pause / Play animated gifs
The ability to add animated gifs is great, but they just loop continuously. It would be nice to be able to click them to pause or play them. I'm using good notes to record some whiteboard-style tech how-to videos. I'm doing animations in procreate dreams and would like to drop those into a good notes whiteboard. I then use iOS screen record to record the whiteboard session.

Please make the vertical scrolling smoother.
It is clanky and feels like it has friction for every page. It really kills the experience.
Also it would be a lot better if you could make the pages continuous when scrolling vertically like in Notability.1 vote -
Rotate draw and hold/more nuanced lasso tool
Hi GoodNotes team,
I use GoodNotes heavily for planning and note-taking, and I’ve noticed a frustrating inconsistency with shapes.
When I draw an oval using the Pen tool with “draw & hold” (auto-shape), it sometimes snaps into place at an angle. However, when I select it, there’s no rotate handle or rotate option—so I can’t straighten it without deleting and redrawing.
In contrast, an oval created with the Shape tool does include a rotate handle. This results in two shapes that look identical but behave very differently, which can be confusing during fast daily use.

Connect playback to what was drawn
You should be able to click a recording, and it take you the page where it was made, and say you went over different pages while make the recording and drew things on the different pages, as the recording is going, it should take you to those pages
Inversely, if you drew something while making a recording, there should be a view where you can easily see what things you drew during a a recording vs just drew normally
ALSO, crucially:
I might be reading a several hundred page book, and I have my thoughts on a certain paragraph that…1 vote -
Lock Lines in Shapes & Pen Tool/Pen Tool + Handwriting//Element Stickers
The new update with the lock feature for images and text is great. However, being able lock elements/stickers, handwriting from pen tool, and lines from both pen and shape tool is necessary for the lock feature to make a real difference in the functionality of the app.

Backwards and Forwards Buttons Unusable
Hello Goodnotes,
Currently the 5 seconds backwards and 5 seconds forwards buttons are unusable, since hitting them causes lag and they often don't work.

MiniPlayer Opens on All Windows causing Lag
Before, when using Goodnotes with stage manager, if I started audio playback then the app lagged badly if multiple windows with the same notebook were open.
Now, if multiple windows are open, the app lags to a stop. This is because starting playback on any notebook from a recording (required to address another bug) opens the miniplayer on EVERY Goodnotes window, which causes substantial lag. This is insufferable.
This behavior has continued ever since the introduction of the New Experience.

Fix Timeline Bugs
Since the introduction of the GoodNotes 6 New Experience, Audio Recording began exhibiting several workflow-breaking bugs.
Originally, upon starting playback in a note, the timeline would open. Now that does not happen, costing me minutes.
Originally, I could pause playback and then take notes, which would then be correlated to that moment in the playback. In other words, I could hold down on the new text and continue audio playback.
Now, whenever I write notes and audio is paused, the timeline jumps to 0:00.
Please fix this.

Squeeze Toolbar should always be on top
I think that the "Squeeze" Toolbar should always be on top layer of UI. Now that when you use the lasso tool it auto pops up the the UI bar. If I use squeeze since that was the last action I took that should be the UI element that I see.
Hopefully this is an easy fix.

Automatic Handwriting enhancement / Erase and Tags
Hello,
Would it be possible to add an automatic handwriting enhancement feature, similar to the one offered by Apple Note?
And also to be able to erase by long-pressing with the Apple Pencil, like in Notability, for example.
These two features would be a fantastic addition to Goodnotes!
Another thing: a tag system for finding files more efficiently.
Thank you in advance to the Goodnotes development team if they read this message.

Recent Issues with Textbox Typing + Toolbar + Lagging + Further suggestion
1 - the toolbar being on top of the textbox itself is terrible. It blocks seeing text around where I'm typing which is really bothersome.
2 - the pin-tool stops whenever I try editing the textbox length (which is very often since it doesn't automatically align with the length anymore) which makes the app think ive used a different tool and completely defeats the purpose of pinning the tool in the first place.
3 - I often need to restart the app mid lecture because it crashed mid-typing in textboxes . The app is unable to accommodate basic fast typing.…1 vote -
BRING BACK NORMAL TYPING
The new update on mac makes it so that you cant just tap on the screen and type based on the lines of the page, you have to go through so many steps just to start typing, this has made it extremely annoying to take notes quickly, I suggest bringing back normal typing and keeping the holding page for whole page typing as an add on for people who want it.

View-only Link Sharing
It would be really helpful to have „View only links“ as an alternative to collaboration. This would enable us to share information without giving permission to edit it. I would use this really often in a school and work context.

For the textbook allow us to have a default color for the words inside the text box that isn’t the black one. It is annoying have go back and choose the color I want to type that isn’t black each time I make a new text box.
