1. Please add an option to disable the “Pull to Add Page” gesture.

   It often creates unwanted pages when flipping through study PDFs or filled notebooks — not blank ones — by duplicating the first or last page unnecessarily.

2. Drawing on text document

   Following the recent update which added the text document, I think that users should be able to have the option of writing, drawing and highlighting on the page. For me my study method is typing out my lecture notes in OneNote and then exporting to Goodnotes to highlight and annotate. However, if I was able to do this with the text document feature, it would make things so much easier. Not just for me but other users also.

3. Horizontal Toolbar Remove - apple pencil pro

   As a apple pencil pro user. The squeeze feature for openning the circle toolbar is self sufficient for changing tools so a settintgs that remove the horizontal toolbar when using apple pencil pro would be a great and easy way to get more space for notebook and usage of the squeeze feature on the pencil. Hope the idea seems great !

5. Image Borders, Shadows

   Just a simple toggle to add/remove a border from an image. A collage of screen caps and images looks very disorganized without defined edges. This is the single most important request, please implement as soon as possible thank you.

6. Bring back the draw and hold for the highlighter (apple)

   Before the update you used to have the option of draw and hold for the highlighter. No you can’t switch it on or off. And the „mandatory draw and hold“ that you provided the highlighter with now is bad. It doesn’t correct the actual wobbles and curves itself but just the last part that comes after the wobbles or nothing at all and it just makes the wobbles more appealing and aesthetically. But its nerve wracking if you mark things fast during lectures and have to fight with not straight lines that sometimes cover the lines below or under. I do understand that it’s great that you can finally highlight unstraight thing and its smoothes them out but for printed texts it’s a literally nightmare. Bring back draw and hold and maybe add options so you can choose on your own if you want the lines to be straight straight or somewhat straightened but keep the actual form and movements you did. The uploaded pics show kind of exaggerated what I mean the wobble would’ve been before corrected into a straight line, now it just gives you an angle or two straight lines that form the wobble.

8. shortcut for highlighter

9. After using lasso tool, put it back to pen tools.

   Currently, after using lasso tools, tapping with Apple Pencil will switch back to the eraser forcibly. It is so inconvenient that doesn’t revert to the tools I was using before, like pen or highlighters. Before the updates, it was used as usual. So please.

11. The worst update ever

    There are so many things that became inconvenient after this update. Here are just a few examples.

    1. The line spacing I saved as a default isn't applied when typing in a new text box.
    2. The toolbox sticks right next to the text box and blocks the background.
    3. Changing fonts or line spacing got much complicated.(especially line spacing, which now takes several steps.)
    4. After typing in a text box, it automatically deselects and switches to the lasso tool.

    These are only some of the issues. The previous UI was more efficient and comfortable to work with. Please fix the bugs and bring back the old UI.

12. Revert to old UI!!!

    Please go back to the most previous UI. This new UI though more simplified, is more tedious to work with. I like the implementation of when you copy a photo, it directly sizes it from a corner instead of proportionally sizing everything. However, once you click off that image, you have to go back to the pen which wastes time during fast lectures.
    The new text box interaction is also tedious since you have to hold down and click ‘start editing’ instead of just clicking a button to text on the whole page. And if you do just a small text box then tao out of it, it automates to the pencil again making you have to go back to the text box tool - yet another time wasting function.
    And most annoying: the voice recordings. It is incredibly tedious now to find and play your voice recordings - and the new UI which hovers over your page takes up too much space. It was more effective when it would just show up on the tools bar. I’ve had many instances where I’m listening, and then tap out and have to re-find it on this new UI.
    PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK

13. Lasso option to SELECT a SPECIFIC PENCIL and PEN color only!!

    I'm a STORYBOARD ARTIST and I REALLY LOVE GOODNOTE'S Pencil tool!
    But for a decent Workflow I need to make THUMBNAIL DRAWINGS in BLUE or RED first and then LATER INK THEM in BLACK on top.

    Therefore I would EITHER need a SELCTIVE COLOR ERASER, and/or a
    SELCTIVE COLOR LASSO..

    I then could ALTER the BUE SKETCH below , by either changing it to a different color, that'a not as visible ( a light GREY for example) OR erase /delete it ALLTOGETHER, with my BLACK Drawing intact!!

    That would be a GAME-CHANGER for my workflow and would imitate a more sophisticted drawing app like apple notes or even Procreate in THAT regard..

    But I really would like to do that INSIDE GOODNOTES! 🙏🏻👀 Thanks!

14. stoke colorizer / stroke fill tool

    How COOL would it be it you could take stokes that you had already made, and colorize them? so you wrote in white, but you want to make the stuff your pen stoke touches to be a blue color.

    I know right now the alternative is to select and then change color but for many situations this is a better user experience

    Think about it as a color fill tool.

15. Sending single pages into students classroom notebooks when they miss a lesson

    Add a feature that allows teachers to send single pages to individual students — for example, to share missed lesson notes directly in the classroom notebook, in the exact place where the original worksheet was worked on.

16. Selection Tool Copying for PDFs (like Notability)

    Please simplify the current "select -> screenshot -> share -> copy" function of the selection tool to simplify copy and paste parts of PDFs. Notability has this and it's MILES better than GoodNotes implementation which takes forever to copy a section of a PDF when I'm copying problems from my lecture slides to my notes.

    This will make my, and so many students, note-taking so much easier.

18. Lasso tool desktop app

    I think the lasso tool doesn't work properly on desktop and isn't natural to use.
    To select text is it fine, but if you want to move a shape or text you have to clic on it to select and then move it. There should be a way for it to recognize the object and move on the first clic. Also, on mac you are able to duplicate something by pressing option and dragging it somewhere else. Text options should allow us to put indexes and exponants, this would be great for math formulas and we need more options for formulas in general, take inspiration from the equation integration in word.

19. Please add 0°/90° snap options for Lines in the Shape tool.

    [KR]

    안녕하세요. Goodnotes 7.0.6 업데이트 이후 Shape(모양) 도구 사용 시 수평(0°) 스냅 밑줄이 생성되지 않습니다.
    • 문제 요약: Shape 도구로 직선을 그려도 이전처럼 정확히 0°로 스냅된 밑줄이 나오지 않음.
    • 재현 단계:
    1. 문서 열기 → 2) Shape 도구 선택 → 3) 텍스트 아래에 직선을 긋기 → 4) 결과: 수평 스냅이 적용되지 않음
    • 기대 동작: Shape 도구의 Line이 0°로 스냅되어 밑줄로 사용 가능
    • 실제 동작: 스냅이 적용되지 않아 미세한 기울기가 발생, 밑줄 대량 작업 시 정렬 품질/속도 저하
    • 영향도: 수업 진도 시 하루 수백~수천 개의 밑줄을 긋습니다. 현재는 Ruler(자) 도구만이 정확한 수평을 보장해, 자 배치/이동으로 인한 추가 조작이 크게 늘어납니다.
    • 우회책 시도:
    • Pen + Draw & Hold → hold해야 해서 필기 속도 저하
    • Ruler 0° 설정 → 수평 확보 가능하나 속도 저하(각도 설정·재배치 필요)
    • 요청 사항:
    • Shape의 Line에 0°/90° 스냅 옵션 제공(또는 축 고정 제스처)

    ⸻

    [EN]

    Hello, since the Goodnotes 7.0.6 update, using the Shape tool no longer produces a horizontally snapped (0°) underline.
    • Summary: Even when drawing a straight line with the Shape tool, it no longer creates a precisely 0°-snapped underline as before.
    • Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open a document → 2) Select the Shape tool → 3) Draw a straight line under text → 4) Result: There is no horizontal snap
    • Expected behavior: The Line from the Shape tool should snap to 0° so it can be used as an underline
    • Actual behavior: No snap is applied, causing a slight tilt; with high-volume underlining this degrades alignment and speed
    • Impact: During classes I draw hundreds to thousands of underlines per day. Currently, only the Ruler guarantees perfect horizontals, which adds extra handling (placement/movement of the ruler).
    • Workarounds tried:
    • Pen + Draw & Hold → requires a hold, which slows writing
    • Ruler at 0° → ensures horizontals but slows the workflow (angle setting/repositioning)
    • Request:
    • Please add 0°/90° snap options for Lines in the Shape tool (or a constrain-axis gesture).
