  1. I use Samsung S23 ultra and there is no goodnote available on such small device. When do you plan to launch it for smartphone with pen? I have it on my Samsung tablet and desktop win app and I m very confused that I cannot use goodnote on my smartphone too.

  4. I have been a Goodnotes user for over 5 years, and it is currently my primary note-taking app for my studies in medical school. I have recently noticed a small redundancy that I believe can make the user experience a lot smoother if a slight improvement is made. When accessing the outlines within a notebook composed of imported PDFs, there are both custom outlines and auto-imported PDF outlines. As is the case with many students, the PDF outlines are often cluttered and sometimes irrelevant, so custom outlines are instead used to divide the various subsections (eg. lectures) within a notebook.…

  5. Because there is no way to contact your company, I am putting my issue here.
    The newest version has an issue on my iPad that while handwriting with the apple pencil, portions of my writing erases without me changing pencil types. If I use the redo button, it will back up to what I just wrote. I have all the latest updates of the app and iPad installed.

  7. I like the dot grid because it’s more subtle than the squared grid, but unfortunately the dot grid is huge now and it sucks! I’d like to submit an idea to have the dot spacings be adjustable. This would be nice to have for the graphed and lined paper as well!

  8. Hello, good note developers.
    I'm a good note user of Windows.
    I'm currently using Surface Pro, and I'm using the third generation of Surface Pen. Currently, the Good Note for Windows supports the noose function with a side button. Please make it possible to customize the function of the side button. Side buttons can be customized with various functions such as changing an eraser, changing a pen type, and changing color, not a snare. I really like the ability to use the eraser on the back. If I can customize the side buttons I want, it will be a more…

  9. Recently accessed folders deserve to be put more noticeable. While sorting in alphabetical order and type do include folder, isn’t it great to get folders included? Especially if you work with folders a lot?

  10. Please add an option to open documents with “page width view” (just like what we have in Microsoft Word) to zoom the page so that the width of the page match the width of the screen (fit to page width).

    I use my iPad in landscape mode and whenever I open a document in Goodnotes, I have to double tap it to view the document in page width view. There should be an option to make this default. Notability opens documents in page width view without doing anything.

  15. have a great idea! Please implement this feature, i can imagine that many users have the same issues.

    I I am creating multiple cards in a learn set, Goodnotes will ask me at the next day to repeat every card. If you have written many card (like 50-70) it can be really hard to learn everything at just one day.
    My idea: the activation of cards. You can decide how many cards you want to activate. Only activated cards will be taken into account at the repetition. That would be super helpful!
    Thank you!

  17. 追加していただきたい機能の案です。フォルダを選択した際に、フォルダ内のファイル数が表示されると非常に使いやすくなると思います。仕事、プライベートともに毎日頻繁に使っているアプリですが、アップル純正のファイル・アプリのようにファイル数が表示されないので、その都度自分で数を数えなくてはいけないのがやや不便に感じています。将来のアップデート版でこの機能が搭載されることを願っています。

  18. One of the abilities that individuals in the digital age still possess is calligraphy, which was practiced in the classical era before the invention of the digital pen. Now that artificial intelligence is a tremendous aid and can assist humans, you must, in my opinion, add a feature to your software that allows users to compose elegantly. Present a pattern to them and use gamification in this way. It is beneficial, akin to taking a writing improvement course.

    1. Insert images for flash cards. That would help a lot with memorizing terms.

    2. Account login to be able to access notes everywhere rather than saving them on iCloud. Like Google Docs. You can login and access them anywhere.

  19. I have a Surface Pro and I am using good notes on it. One of my major complaints, and perhaps the only important one at the moment, is the missing option for handwriting recognition in windows. But this feature is supported on iPad. Would like it to be on Windows too, please!
