Customer Suggestions for Goodnotes (Apple)

Welcome to the Goodnotes idea-sharing space!

This space is dedicated to users on Apple devices (iPad, Mac, iPhone). If you’re using Goodnotes on Android, Windows, or Web, please visit this link.

Tips to make your suggestion visible and bring your idea to life:

  • Search existing threads. Your idea might already be under discussion. If so, feel free to add your input or vote on it. More votes = more visibility.
  • Create a new thread if it’s new. If your suggestion is unique, start a new thread. Write a short, clear headline that quickly conveys your main idea, and include context and details in the description.
  • Separate multiple ideas. If you have several suggestions, split them into individual topics so we can review (and others can vote on) each one more effectively.

  5. Please add the ability to redact (or black out) portions of text. I’d like to email documents to clients but there is often confidential information that needs to be removed.

  6. Please allow highlighter pdf option, which highlits the text itself without “leftovers”, like there may be found on pdf editing apps, not only marker option, as there is today.

    Thank you

  7. My PDF software (provided by my employer, I don't have a choice to not use it) cannot parse a JPG2000 file (photos taken WITHIN GoodNotes are saved as JPG2000.... if I take a picture with my ipad camera, SOMETIMES, GN will parse this as a regular JPG... but usually it does not.

    This is really frustrating when I export to PDF to share with others in my workgroup, and they cannot see the photograph that I carefully annotated to explain the thing we are working with...

  8. On mac version of goodnotes 5 - the highlighter is set to freehand. A highlighter with a straight line would be much better

  15. It would be great to be able to completely get rid of a cover in an existing notebook. I know you can change them, but it doesn't seem possible to remove them.

  16. I would love to be able to access my notes later on from desktop or web, in case I don't have my ipad or can't get enough screen real estate to easily review them on my phone.

  17. Currently, I can only add pictures from the Photos app. It would be awesome if I could add images from Dropbox, iCloud, or any other remote storage system.

    To add images from other sources, tap on the image tool in the toolbar and then tap anywhere on the page. This will bring up the image picker and at the bottom of the pop-up, you’ll see the option to “Insert from…”. This will enable you to choose from other sources.

  18. I have painstakingly imported each individual files into their respective folders in GoodNotes.

    I would like the option to sync or import full folders from Google Drive to prevent this time consuming process.

  19. Allow for editing handwriting (moving to different locations, deleting..) in Mac App or deleting pages in a handwritten document. Usefulness is like 50% without these features.
