Improve textbox toolbar - remove floating toolbar
When using a text box the toolbar will drop down to the text box instead of staying by the stationary/fixed toolbar, which results in the toolbar covering the textbox, sometimes not showing up, and sometimes I must manually close the keyboard (I don’t have a separate keyboard for my IPad so I type on the screen) to access the toolbar options. In the next update please let the textbox tools stay at the stationary toolbar, and add the previous textbox menu (with only some choices such as delete and copy/cut/paste etc.) to end corner of the textbox. And when marking…

[Palm Gestures] Disable Palm Gestures
Please introduce the possibility of palm gesture removal since the palm detection doesn't work properly when the iPad is used horizontally.
When we write on an imported picture, every time the palm touches the screen, GoodNotes switches to the lasso tool, and it's kinda annoying.
This feature is always on even if the iPad settings say to ignore the palm.126 votes -
Grading Instructor-uploading
I think it is critical that an instructor upload version be provided for grading important paper exams. The instructor would upload a PDF with batches of exams. Based upon a template, the batched PDF would be split into submissions. Then each submission would be sorted to the appropriate students and go through the grading process.
This would be useful in cases where students don't have easy access to iPads/styli. Or, where teachers are giving paper exams and don't want students to handle the submission process.

Vertical or Floating Toolbar Option
Hi, I would like to leave a suggestion that is very important to me. If possible, could you please add an option to move the Goodnotes toolbar? Currently, it is only available at the top in a horizontal layout, but it would be great to have the choice to position it vertically or even as a floating menu.
This feature would make it much easier to reach tools with the stylus, especially on large tablets where we often write in portrait mode (with the short side at the top and the long side on the side).
I hope you will…

Streamen einer Hälfte eines Splitscreens
Mit dem neuen Betriebssystem iPadOS 26 kann man nicht mehr, wie bisher, die linke Seite des Splitscreens (Goodnotes-Fenster) über den Beamer synchronisieren und auf der rechten Seite eine andere App als Goodnotes öffnen, die nicht gestreamt wird. Für Personen, die diese Funktion im alten Betriebssystem nutzen mussten, ist das sehr ärgerlich. Deshalb die Bitte an das Team von Goodnotes: Macht das wieder möglich!

Drop down arrow for color palette
Instead of having the colors set up like Option 1, where we have to scroll left and right to find our colors, can y’all make a feature like the example in Option 2? In this version, the color we’re using would be selected, and if we want to see all our colors or change the color, all we have to do is click the drop-down arrow and the rest of our colors will appear. That way, we can have as many color options as we want without having to scroll left and right to find them.

Can Not View Pages or Outlines
Need to fix the issue of not being able to view pages or outlines when using the window view while recording audio. This was not an issue in goodnotes 6 and is very annoying especially while working on notes in class. You have to switch to the sidebar view to be able to go back to see pages. Very inefficient!

Mark which pages have handwriting.
A new option has been added to mark pages in a document that contain handwriting, making them easier to find when reviewing notes.
This is a current feature of Notability.

Allow .apkg(anki) file for import in study set
Hey goodnotes
I have a problem that please make available .apkg format to import for study set(flashcards)
Because it is 2nd most priority of study that is active recall and
Majority of medical scholar student uses already formed anki(.apkg) flashcards
That is actual too much time taking and also anki community has already made cards of very vast range of subjects and also from many sources so it is more efficient and beneficial to direct import readymade flashcards
And also most of medical student using ipad
And anki for ipad is for 30$

Basic keyboard shortcuts for closing tabs, creating new files/folders, etc.
I would like to see some basic keyboard shortcuts implemented, examples are in the title. Most annoyingly Cmd + W doesn't close a tab but rather exits the document and leaves it open.
Below are some suggestions for shortcuts (shortcuts marked with '*' can be considered extra):
Window/Tab management:
- Cmd + W: closes the current tab
- *Cmd + Opt + W: closes all tabs
- Cmd + Shift + Esc: exits document view
- Cmd + Opt + Left/Right: Go to previous/next tabFile management:
- Cmd + Opt + N: Creates new File
- Cmd + Opt…1 voteAdminGoodnotes (Moderator, GoodNotes) responded

Full support for keyboard navigation using Tab and Shift+Tab on MacOS
I use keyboard shortcuts quite extensively and would like to see some better support on keyboard navigation, especially in the documents view. So opening, renaming, etc. files can be done without a mouse/trackpad. Maybe implement a toggle for this option, so regular users are not affected by default.

Easier Text Coloring in Txt-Doc.
In a Txt-Doc there should be more tools in the toolbar for important actions like setting the background color of selected Text to a color by just clicking on the color symbol.

margins
Please make the templates editable. For example I like a margin but I find it's too wide. I'd like the templates to be editable such that you can have a smaller or larger margin as needed.

Sim links in file explorer
Have the ability to create simlinks to documents in other folders. Due to the number of folder I have, I occasionally want to have access to note in two separate folders. The only way to do this now is to make a copy which takes up double the space and doesn’t sync any hand written notes on the page.

Align and space shapes
Love the new shapes tool but it would very useful if shapes (or in a broader sense also all other objects like images, text, stickers, etc.) could be aligned and spaced out evenly to make notes look more professional.
Also the option to eg. center elements on the page via an x/y axis. There could be an option to turn automatic snapping/ guidelines on or off.
It is very difficult to eyeball objects to be consistently spaced and aligned and often results in pages not looking consistent.

Flashcard Improvement Suggestion
Enable the full toolbar on flashcards
Allow users to use the same tools as on regular pages: highlighting in color, underlining, bold text, and free writing/drawing. This would make it much easier to emphasize important content and quickly add notes or markings.Support combined text and images on a single flashcard
Make it possible to place both images and text together on one flashcard for better visual learning and more flexible study methods.Detect and indicate duplicate flashcards:
Show a clear warning or indicator when a flashcard is created twice, to avoid unnecessary duplicates and keep decks organized.

rotate and resize text with two fingers
When I am using the lasso tool I would like to rotate the handwritten text with my fingers or pencil and resize it as well but it seems very restricted at the moment. When I use two fingers it duplicates which there is no need for as there is a copy and paste function and the only way to rotate is the box icon which is very restricted and not free as in like free motion.

Number notebooks automatically/ Index
The option to add page numbers to the notebook in a selected font/size and to also add an Index/ Table of Contents that shows up within the document. Similar to how it is in word or other word processing Programs, just a bit simplified.
Basically the option to add the "outline" as a "table of contents page" within the note book and to show numbers on each page correspondingly.

Text Doc Improvements
Love the new text doc feature, but it needs improvements.
Option to hyperlink to Text Docs. Right now it is greyed out when trying to link to them. Very inconvenient. It should have the option to link to the entire document and also Headings/ Subheadings within it.
Option to use drawing tools within the text doc.
More exporting features. Especially exporting as word document or actual text document. This is super important when trying to share editable writing with someone who doesn't use goodnotes.
WORD COUNT. Please, as a writer having a word count is super important. I would also…

Import PDF as a study set
There are multiple ways of doing this:
(A) Chop each page in half: top half becomes the ‘image’ for question, bottom half becomes the ‘image’ for answer.
(B) Two pages per flashcard, one for question and one for answer (maybe do this if pdf is in landscape mode).This would be immensely helpful as currently you can only import text, which is an issue if your flash cards have diagrams or render LaTeX.
