  1. Allow to recognize all the languages added. I usually combine Spanish and English notes in the same page. I can configure only one language by page.

  3. Hello,

    It would be convenient when looking through the document file browser, if there was an easy way to view the thumbnails of a document without opening the document. I have so many documents in goodnotes, and currently I have to open a document and then open the thumbnails view and then close the document each time i want to see whats inside a document.

    It would be a lot easier if there was a button in the file browser to open the thumbnail view, without opening the document. Then if i want to open the document, maybe there could…

  4. I want to be able to add pictures by copying and pasting (ctrlC+ctrlV) files from elsewhere into the notes, and be able to drag and drop picture files into notes. This is possible in Google Docs, and more convenient than the current feature, where you have to go click add a picture and then look for the picture.

  5. I want to use GoodNotes now in school, but if possible still in college. Is it possible to pay for GoodNotes for Windows only once forever?
    If not can you please do that. Your program is so good.

    Kind regards

  6. Since GN6, the pen size has been looped in with colors, and it would be great if this had its drop-down menu to change the size of your pen. Also, I switch between colors and pen sizes A LOT, and swiping between them has become my biggest pet peeve with the app. Also, if there was a drop-down menu, could we add more than three preset pen sizes?

  7. Using Apple or Google or other accounts to login to good notes is a terrible privacy practice. Why would I want to share my good notes data with those companies and why would I want to share my other data with Good Notes. Will not be upgrading so long as v6 requires account login without an email address option.

  9. It would be great if we could add a means to share or back up the slots themselves stored as pen color codes or type pen color codes. If you back up your iPad with iTunes, you can save the color code, but I think it's a function that you need when you want to reinstall and use the app.

  10. When importing a pdf into Goodnoes, they should by default go into the active folder, not into “Documents” root.
    You guys had it right in Goodnotes 5 but not in 6, I have had to revert back to 5 until this is solved. When it works properly, I can upgrade.

  12. This is what I primarily use the app for, this version is really disappointing for this reason, making students in my study group all purchase this makes me using his app useless, I’m going to look for another one with shareable flashcards features, it’s too bad I really liked this one

  13. Do add other payment options. It is not possible for all students to have access to credit cards. Add options like UPI, Net banking, Auto payment enablement (Like the one Netflix uses) etc.

  14. The marketplace available in Goodnotes 6 doesn’t appear to be searchable, so instead of scrolling dozens of planners it would be good to search “travel” for example and find content that matches.

  17. I’ve been using Goodnotes for two years now for school and love the app, but there is no way I’m going to pay for an app. I’m gone already on just update it.

  18. nella modalità scrittura con tastiera, bisogna aggiungere la possibilità di aggiungere anche immagini, creando dei margini automatici che si spostano, e si modellano col testo circostante: bisogna renderla simile ad altre app competitor specializzate solo nella scrittura con tastiera come pages o word. al momento infatti goodnotes dal punto di vista della scrittura a mano libera/ con apple pencil a mio avviso è l'app migliore ma dal punto di vista della scrittura con tastiera c'è ancora strada da fare (al momento ci sono app dedicate: pages, word, ...) che fanno questo lavoro meglio.....

  19. GoodNotes 6 has an annoying quirk: I'll be writing along and suddenly a word will vanish as I write it. IT's not any one word, nor any combination of strokes in particular. I would call it intermittent, but it happens with aggravating regularity. It's only begun since upgrading to 6; I'm writing the same way I did in GoodNotes 5 and it never did this. Am I alone in experiencing this issue?
