  1. Hello,
    I have an idea on how to promote Goodnotes 6 more through social media. This would allow us to engage a wider audience of students and their parents. I am a chemical technology engineer and have been tutoring math online for 15 years. I have been using the Goodnotes app for tutoring for several years and have been very satisfied. I have recently started recording short tutorial videos in maths, chemistry and science which I create exclusively in the Goodnotes app6. The videos would be suitable to promote Goodnotes on TikTok or Instagram or Facebook. I think that in…

  2. Please add scribble to erase and lasso to move as options to the pencil. For some reason the pencil seems to write more clearly than the fountain pen even with stroke stabilization, it’s just missing the scribble and lasso. Thanks.

  5. I want that when I insert images containing text, GoodNotes should be able to scan the text so that I can copy it and search the content more easily.

  6. The constant spell check nagging is going to drive me to remarkable. Spell check settings should be set at the user level not the notebook level. It especially should not be at the notebook level for each device.

  7. Hi Goodnotes Team,

    I’d like to request support for Wacom tablet integration in Goodnotes 6 on macOS — specifically for the Wacom Intuos Medium Bluetooth tablet. It would be incredibly helpful to have pen pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, and support for the ExpressKeys on macOS, similar to the seamless experience you’ve built for Apple Pencil on iPad.

    This would make the app significantly more usable for students, educators, and professionals who use drawing tablets for handwritten notes and diagrams on Mac.

    Thank you for considering this — I truly believe it would make Goodnotes even more powerful across platforms.

    Best…

  8. I am using goodnotes on mac with graphics tablet. It seems to me that adding hand tool would be really nice. It would let you scroll over your notes without touching mouse.
    P. S. Now I cant even use scrollbar, because it just doesn't appear after hovering your mouse

  12. 定規のようにオンオフができる手書き用グリッド線の表示機能をリスエストします!

    ノートの作成時は罫線やドットを選択できますが、PDFや読み込んだ画像には選択できません。
    表示のオンオフが可能かつノート自体のテンプレートには干渉しないグリッド線があれば、書き込みがさらに快適になると思います。
    ご検討のほど、よろしくお願いいたします!

  13. Make a sign here box that when applied to a template and I click it then it can bring up a window to sign on screen which is applied to the page. It would be helpful for business.

  14. I really enjoy using these flashcards for anatomy and the tape feature to cover diagrams. I wished I could send links to my friends so we can collaborate on flashcards like we can documents. We frequently are able to work on pre-labs together, but cant flash cards.

  17. Hello GoodNotes team,

    I’m running GoodNotes 6 on my iPad (latest version) and have purchased the “All Platforms – Yearly” subscription (renewal date: May 15, 2025) through my Google account. My Windows app correctly shows that I’m signed in with the same account and my subscription type.

    However, on the iPad under Settings ▶ Cloud & Backup, I only see the iCloud Sync toggle. I have:

    Disabled iCloud Sync

    Signed out and signed back in (using my Google account)

    Confirmed I’m on the latest GoodNotes 6 release

    …yet the GoodNotes Cloud option never appears. As a result, I cannot enable…

  18. 'm a paid GoodNotes user and generally enjoy using it, but there are a few usability issues that make the experience less efficient.

    There's no way to undo with a single two-finger tap, so quickly erasing even a couple of strokes takes multiple steps. Double-tapping the Apple Pencil always switches to the eraser instead of toggling between tools, and these gestures can't be customized, which limits flexibility.

    Accidental finger touches sometimes delete notes or trigger the paste popup while writing, which breaks the flow. Also, with the Apple Pencil Pro, using the squeeze gesture to access the lasso tool isn’t…

  19. 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.

  20. Funktioniert überhaupt nicht... es ist extrem anstrengend, nervig und störend. Man versucht einen Text, ein Protokoll zu schreiben und ständig wird alles auf eine solch penetrante Art und Weise auto-korrigiert. Es ist teilweise sogar richtig Aufwendig dann den Text schreiben zu dürfen, den man eben schreiben will. Und ich habe meine Sprachen die ich nutze richtig eingestellt. Aber das funktioniert mal überhaupt nicht. Bin ansonsten sehr zufrieden. Deswegen Zahl ich ja dafür. Aber das ist extrem nervig und unglaublich schlecht gelöst !!!!!!!!!!
