  1. Please introduce the ability to draw more variation of shapes, others than Lines, polygons, circles, ellipses and parabolas. Me as an engineering student would love to draw different curvy lines. I would recommend to add like 3,4,5… order polynomials and what really should be introduced is an easy and efficient way to draw sin and cosin.

  3. There should she a text selection tool for copying text

    Other apps have an underline or strike through tool, even a squiggly line underneath

    On the same notion, the highlight right now is draw and has to be paused in place to make a straight line but a new tool could be added that specifically highlights text only and is perfectly aligned with the text instead of overlayed

    It also you be nice to be able to create hyperlinks in the text so when you click on it, it jumps you to a certain page, and maybe include a return…

  4. Hello GoodNotes team,

    First of all, please excuse any language errors in this message.

    We wanted to share some feedback about the Math Conversion feature in GoodNotes, which we find overall very impressive. The ability to convert handwritten text, graphs, and mathematical equations is extremely useful. It is even possible to directly copy the LaTeX output to paste it elsewhere, which is a great feature.

    However, we have noticed one limitation: when converting mathematical equations, it is only possible to copy the LaTeX output line by line. This can be quite tedious when working with multi-line calculations.

    It would be…

  5. There much templates to choose from… but most of them I don’t use. How about choosing favorite templates which you can choose on the top. That might speed up the workflow.

  6. It seems like we can create stickers and stickers are kinda like stamps. I am hoping to create stickers for various typical items/issues I find while on an inspection so that I can just place the sticker as the annotation for what I saw at that location.

    What would be really awesome is if there could be a legend based on the stickers you choose and it would be really incredible if it would automatically count them.

    For example, I’m inspecting a house and I have a sticker that is for water stains. I go around the house and place…

  7. Being able to lock the orientation of the notebook or page you’re working on without having to lock it for the entire iPad.

    When I am marking up a floor plan, I have to lock the iPad so that I can orient the floor plan to match what I’m seeing. It would be better if I can lock this in Goodnotes instead of the iPad.

    Bonus would be if you can lock the page/notebook to the actual north direction. The phones already have a compass to where it knows where north is. If that could be linked to the page…

  9. Hi GoodNotes Team,
    I'm a student who uses GoodNotes daily for my lectures and note-taking. I had a creative idea that I think would make the writing experience much more fun and unique.
    Currently, the pen tool only writes in one solid color. What if there was an option for a "Multi-color" or "Bordered" pen? For example, a pen stroke that has one color in the center and a completely different color on the outer edges.
    I’ve attached a sketch I made to demonstrate the idea (a light blue stroke with red edges, and another with purple edges). I think…

  10. Subject: Issue with macOS Update and iCloud Synchronization

    I am experiencing an issue where my Mac is unable to update, citing incompatibility with the latest version. As a result, iCloud synchronization is not functioning.

    The system indicates that macOS 14.5 or higher is required. However, even though I am currently using macOS Tahoe 26.4, the update will not proceed.

    I would greatly appreciate a prompt resolution to this matter. Thank you.

  11. It would be very practical to be able to choose the tools that are associated with the double-tap function of the Apple Pencil. Simple yet very efficient feature for a smoother workflow while writing.

  12. Making the tabs bar condensed while writing so that there’s more room on the screen for the paper. This would also make the new toolbar more useful!

  13. Add the ability for the Shortcuts app on iPadOS to open multiple selected documents simultaneously in Split View.

    This feature would allow users to choose specific files and define them as a paired workspace within a Shortcut. When the Shortcut is run, the selected documents would automatically open side-by-side in Split View, eliminating the need to manually open and Split View for each file.

  14. Because many teachers speak quickly, the best way to take notes in class is to upload the PDF slides and annotate them directly. Most of the time, these slides are in landscape orientation (wider than they are tall). However, when you want to write your own summaries or do homework, it's much more convenient to use portrait orientation (taller than they are wide).
    Currently, every time I add a new page after the slides, I have to manually rotate it, which is very annoying. It would be so much quicker if I only had to rotate the first added page,…

  16. I recently started using Goodnotes in my classroom as a replacement for worksheets under a document camera. While Goodnotes works very well overall, I noticed a critical limitation for classroom use:
    When using a document camera, students can see my hand and the pen. This provides natural orientation: they immediately recognize when I start writing, where I am on the page, and when they should follow along.
    In Goodnotes, this orientation is missing. Students often do not immediately realize that writing has started.
    Students cannot clearly see where on the page I am currently writing or drawing. This is especially…

  17. 오랜시간동안 아이폰과 아이패드를 사용하면서 굿노트를 사용해 왔는데 최근 업무로 인해 안드로이드 스마트 폰을 구매 했습니다.

    굿노트를 안드로이드와 아이패드에서 동기화 해 사용하고 싶어 pro 버전 구독도 했지만 goodnotes cloud 사용이 불가능해 연동이 안됩니다.

    초대 링크도 받지 못해 사용할 수 없는데 대단히 불편합니다. 가능하다면 goodnotes cloud 링크를 보내주시거나 빨리 기능을 업데이트해 사용할 수 있게 된다면 좋겠습니다.

    I subscribed to the Pro version because I wanted to use GoodNotes on both my Android device and iPad with synchronization. However,…

  18. TextDoc

    I have been a GoodNotes user for several years throughout my undergraduate time and plan to continue using it through graduate school. I have fallen in love with the TextDoc option, but there are several issues. First, when exporting a TextDoc to a PDF, there is very little room on the "printed" PDF, especially if any headings are used, which is an integral feature for lengthy notes. If DevOps has any way to ensure the headings are kept while the overall size is altered when imported. This could be solved by changing the Text or Font size. Second, another…

  19. With every update, I feel like I’m losing out on convenience.
    Now the Lasso tool – one of my most-used tools – has been pushed even further down the context menu, in favour of other fancy tools that I never use.
    The Lasso tool must be right at the top of the list!

    As not all of us have the same needs: please let us customise the context menu so that everyone can adapt it to their personal requirements. Thank you very much!
