[Line Spacing] Restore precision adjustment to hundredths instead of whole numbers
Previously, line spacing was to the hundreths place (eg. 29.38) but is currently rounded to whole numbers (eg. 29). This prevents text from fitting on the lines in the in-app templates, even when adjusting font size, and essentially renders those templates useless.
Moreover, it's frustrating to see a clear break between previously typed notes neatly formatted to fit the templates and newly typed notes with spacing different than that of the lines on the pages (and previous text).
I cannot stress enough how much I appreciated the precision line spacing, it truly affects the entire app experience. Please please please…

[Audio Recording] Prevent full menu from opening when unpausing in mini player
Please make it so that every time you unpause a recording on the miniplayer, the whole menu does not automatically pop up (Video demonstration attached).
It takes up a large part of the screen and moves the whole note page so I need to readjust every time, and when I play and pause one segment repeatedly I need to close it every time. I really enjoyed how it was in the previous update, where the bar was simply at the top next to a play/pause button. The new UI is fine, I just really don't want the whole menu popping…2 votes -
[Toolbar] Consolidate duplicate tools in split screen
When the screen is split, the UI feels very intrusive. In particular, the recording icon appears on both screens and is quite large. The same goes for the Undo button. I think unused tools should be consolidated into one place, and the freed-up space could be used for tools that are actually needed. This idea aligns with your philosophy of being “all in one.”

[Sharing] Enable direct upload or sharing to ChatGPT and email
Allow Notebooks from Goodnotes to be uploaded/shared (to Chatgpt/email/etc) directly from Goodnotes without needing to export it first, as it takes up double the space on the computer; plus it exports as a zip file when its more than 1 notebook, making bulk sharing/uploading very tedious

[Audio Recording] Allow recorded audio to be attached next to handwritten notes
音楽の授業で、先生のお手本のフレーズをメモするために録音機能を使っています。手書きのメモの横に録音した素材を貼り付けることが出来たら、振り返りがもっと簡単になるのになぁと思っています。
In music class, I use the recording function to write down the teacher's sample phrases. If you could paste the recorded material next to the handwritten memo, it would be easier to look back.8 votes -
[Audio Recording] Fix issue where audio stops or disappears in split-screen mode
When using GoodNotes in split-screen mode, I record audio on one side so I can listen to it later, while studying for a test on the other side. However, if I close the screen I’m studying on, the recording disappears. The same thing happens when I try to open a different document on the study side — the recording stops and disappears.
This feature worked fine before the update and also in GoodNotes 5, so I really want this issue fixed immediately. It’s seriously affecting my test preparation, and I’m having a lot of trouble because of it. Please fix…

Font dropdown window
Currently, choosing a font is time-consuming, not efficient. There are so many steps to choose the font I need. The recent update made it worse.
Now, a tiny window pops up with the default chosen (never the one I need). I then select "Custom Fonts" and a larger window pops up. I go find say, Bodoni. Change my font. But I find I don't like that font. I have to highlight the word or words, the small window pops up again, I choose Custom Fonts again, then have to find another font from the beginning. I'd like it to default…

Favourites for fonts and line spacing
I would appreciate it if, similar to colours and font weights, it were possible to create "favourites" for fonts and line spacing, although the issue with line spacing not automatically being saved as I had specified should be resolved first.

Favoriten von Schriftarten und Zeilenabständen
Ich fände es gut, wenn man ähnlich wie bei Farben und Schriftdicken auch bei Schriftarten und Zeilenabständen „Favoriten“ anlegen könnte, wobei bei Zeilenabständen vorher der Fehler, dass diese bei mir nicht automatisch so sind, wie ich sie gespeichert habe behoben werden sollte.

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.

scan text from images and books for goodnotes AI
I import a lot of older books and text images from classes, but in order to use goodnotes AI, the words in the imported PDF need to be actual text.
MacOS does it well in preview, but I can't export it as embedded text from the image scan, so I'll have to resort to janky online tools that take forever to read the images then ultimately import it again to goodnotes.
I've seen some occassional messages from the AI sidebar asking if it can read it, but it never does and the message is sporatic anyway. How can goodnotes read…

Improved Pencil Tool Sensitivity and Shape
The pencil tool could benefit from the possibility of regulating sensitivity, stabilization, stroke streamlining, and CONCENTRATION allowing for smoother, more controlled lines when writing or sketching. At the moment, it feels a bit too dull and diluted, making precise work difficult. Additionally, it would be great if the pencil tip were round instead of flat, to better mimic the feel of a real pencil and produce more natural, consistent strokes.

Rescalable Templates
It would be great if GoodNotes allowed users to rescale existing paper templates. For example, when using an A4 template with a squared pattern, users could adjust the grid size (e.g., 4 mm, 5 mm, 1 cm, etc.) without changing the overall paper format. This flexibility would make it easier to customize templates for different needs—such as technical notes, sketches, or graphing—while maintaining a consistent page size and layout.

Improve highlighter
Make possible to draw a straight line but with different slants: when I take a picture of a text, sometimes the text is not perfectly straight, it’s abi tilted and it’s impossible to highlight it with the straight feature cause the highlight won’t correspond to the tilted text.

Improve text document beta
I’m currently using Goodnotes for handwritten notes and pages for typing ones. I’d love to do that all in Goodnotes. I think an improvement of the text document is well needed. For example, give the choice to visualise as one full page or divided in a4 pages, give more options tu personalise texts fonts, font size. All the features used in other apps.

Improve Text and Keyboard Features
I find writing with a keyboard more difficult since the last update. You have removed the keyboard function in the toolbar, and now I have to tap and hold to start writing in a regular notebook. This is useless.
Text documents are not a terrible thing, but you should add the possibility to highlight or write with a pen on them. Personally, I chose GoodNotes because it allowed me to both write with a keyboard and with a pen on the same file.
With text documents you can finally write without pages and the issues that come from it (having…1 vote -
Suggestion
Dear GoodNotes Developers,
I hope this doesn’t come across as too forward, but I have a suggestion I’d like to share.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could create a dedicated bug report channel here.
For example, when a Sticky Note is positioned at the center or bottom of the screen, the screen automatically moves whenever the keyboard is opened. I’ve reported this issue multiple times through the in-app bug reporting, but even after several updates over the past few days, the issue still hasn’t been addressed.
There are also other ongoing issues, such as scrolling glitches, pen input…2 votes -
