[Hyperlinks] Link other notebooks
please make a function to link another document within a document!!
I am making a short summary to study for my class final, I would love to be able to link a different document within my goodnotes folders to a specific word to have more detailed information
for example: my note says " - the sea is full of organisms", I then tap on the word "organism" and my notes on organisms I took during class pop up, because I was able to link them to my short summary
Hello,
Thank you for sharing your ideas! We’re happy to share that the option to create links to other documents within your Goodnotes account is already available.
You can currently add:
- Links to any external website
- Hyperlinks to any notebook or whiteboard from your files
You can add links to text in textboxes, stickers, and shapes to make your notes more interactive and organized.
For more details on how this works, you can find a step-by-step guide here.

Currently to create hyperlinks you need to use the text tool. As I use Goodnotes as a bullet journal it would be nice to be able to highlight my handwritten text and attach a hyperlink to it. For instance, sometimes I have tasks like "read article X", being able to add a link to that task which directs to the article (either in Goodnotes or on the Web) would be very useful.

Selecting hyperlinks require that you turn the pen-tool off, press on the hyperlink, then turn the pen-tool back on. Instead:
Allow a long-press on a hyperlink to activate it.
Alternatively, a double-touch on a hyperlink to activate it.
I can't tell you how many times I've pressed on a hyperlink and end up writing a dot. I have several people I have recruited to be GoodNotes users and this is a frequent problem when they begin using the program ("Hey, why don't hyperlinks work?")

Two things that would make this app even more amazing. First is the ability to hyperlink within the program. If you could link one note to another place anywhere in GoodNotes would be so useful. The other is to be able to add reminders. This would need to work with a hyperlink so a to-do task would notify you and then you could click and be taken right to where the reminder is referring to

I love the option of using pre-existing Hyperlinks (digital planners etc.) but I often feel the need to add hyperlinks while working on a document. While taking notes in a class, sometimes websites, videos or useful tools are being mentioned, that I would love to link directly to my notes!

It would be very helpful if you add hyperlink and adding shortcuts for the same folder or notes to easily navigate in the app
and to make many shortcuts of the same notes and put them to different folders -

I would like to see a feature that allows me to click on an Internal Link of a pdf document, and shows its result (which views a specific portion of a specific page on the same document) on the other Window of Split View (not the same opened one!).
It is so useful for reviewing Notes and Textbooks that contain internal hyperlinks without having to go back to the original page each time after view the hyperlink result (page view)

linking to another GoodNotes files when we click certain words , just like hyperlink but instead of going to a website it will open our particular GoodNotes. Since you have created hyperlink it won’t require major processing I suppose.

Along with being able to create in-document hyperlinks, please allow hyperlinks in template pages. E.g. to allow the author / reader to go back to (say) a contents page. For larger documents, the thumbnail feature is utterly useless.

We really need the ability to create hyperlinks in the document. There is a HUGE market for bullet journals but the methods available for making hyperlinked documents aren’t available to everyone (e.g. Indesign, Keynote, etc). You’re missing a huge trick here!

Please, it's 2021. We need this basic feature. The outline feature is not enough.

It would be so useful to have the possibility to create internal hyperlink in the same document or through more documents of goodnotes.
so if I clicked on the word of the hyperlink, I would go directly to the page of the hyperlink.
I hope you'll make up this feature -

The ability to link externally (ie to a URL, or to a pdf in my files) or internally (ie within GoodNotes) would make GN a lot more viable as a working tool.
I've just started a degree so have years of study ahead of me. Finding the right tool at the outset is vital, so that my notes will be consistent in terms of file type, cross-file compatibility etc. - with study notes I NEED to be able to link to research sources / related GN notes etc.
This is a reasonable expectation in 2021. The lack of this functionality (as well as other points re editing pen tool I've made separate suggestions for) has me questioning whether I continue using the app at all; GN currently does not strike me a serious tool. It looks nice but it's a box of crayons when I need something with a more grown up engine.

We should have the option to create/edit hyperlinks within Goodnotes. Pages get added and moved around and mess up the hyperlinks and we need the ability to fix them so the hyperlinks in our notebook or journal are still usable.

I agree, it is really useful to have links to access external documentation for example!
