[Toolbar] Bring back bookmark icon
Need a bookmark icon on the top menu to bookmark the page you are viewing with just one tap.

What took one click before - Add Bookmark - now takes two - click 3-dots, click Add to Favorites. And now you cannot see just by looking at the page if it's bookmarked or not, you have to open the Sidebar (another click), select between All Pages or Bookmarks Only (another click), then perhaps have to scroll to find the current page - which is so small that it's hard to know if the thumbnail is the current page (add ten seconds), and then keep the sidebar open which takes up a quarter of the screen on an ipad.
Who made this decision? The should be fired. They offer no explanation other than it's more "streamlined". It helps no one and hinders many. -

Please add favourite option near to add to page option as it was present in previous version because it is easy to hand for us . I have add image by that you will understand

Another plea to PLEASE bring back the bookmark icon SOMEWHERE easily seen. Even just seeing if the page was already bookmarked would be helpful. Something like the visual flag like Kindle or Google Books uses. Iām not fond of the extra clicks to bookmark a page, but not immediately seeing if the page is already bookmarked is ridiculous. PLEASE return this most helpful option ASAP.

this is the only feature that motivated me to use goodnotes. now that it is no longer available, I switched back to the official adobe pdf reader. it is free and I do not have to deal with all these flawed designs.

Seriouslyā¦why do you keep moving the bookmark icon? It needs to be in the main bar.

Bump to all other comments, and also to my puzzlement that the designers did EXACTLY THE SAME THING a few years ago (remove bookmark from toolbar) only to add it back in due to user feedback. But they have seemingly forgot that happened and removed it from the toolbar again. Crazy. Still love the app and company, but please!

Key feature lost. Slows me down significantly. Put the bookmark button back on the toolbar.

+1 to all the comments here. The bookmark icon needs to be in the toolbar.

Once again⦠PLEASE put the bookmark icon on the toolbar. Donāt hide it in a menu. Bookmarking pages should be easy to do and easy to see whether a page is already selected. Bookmarks and outlines are the only ways to easily manage large documents and access certain pages quickly. Or if nothing else, allow it to be customized on the home ribbon so people can have their favorite features front and center. Everyone uses Goodnotes differently. Let US decide the UI that works best for us.

Bring back the bookmark button on the home ribbon like it was before. It is really inconvenient to click the top right dots and then select the bookmark button when bookmarking multiple pages.

You did not fix anything. You were supposed to bring back the favorite button. There is one thing for sure. Fire the new guy you hired.

Please display the bookmark addition button permanently in the top-right corner so it can be accessed immediately from the left tabs.
Please revert to the previous UI.
It's hard to understand why the bookmark UI was hidden and the Tools tab made independent. Now we have to go out of our way to add bookmarks from the left tabs, and then open another tab just to review them. This is extremely inconvenient and frustrating.DeepLć§ēæ»čسćć¾ćć (https://dee.pl/app)

This is one of the worst GUI decisions for Goodnotes developers ever made. And in the left sidebar, combining the Page View and Bookmarks View into a pull-down menu was also a very poor decision. The GUI should place common tasks (add bookmark) to the front, not hide it.
What I would really like is the option to revert to version 6, in the same way that version 5 was available to v.6 users.
I never use the audio features. -

GN7 = Brutal. I add/remove bookmarks all the time while working with large PDFs. Now I have either keep the sidebar open (wasting a ton of screen space) or make multiple clicks. And the bookmarks are no longer visible when scrolling through the document. None of this is any sort of improvement.

Bring the bookmark icon back so itās visible all of the time, and so that you can filter all pages and only see those that are bookmarked. I use a PDF planner on Goodnotes and visible bookmarks and filtering by bookmarks are critical to navigating a PDF planner with hundreds of pages.

Please bring back the old toolbar and the ability to bookmark pages easily!! Your own FAQ page advises that I should bookmark pages I come back to all the time to make them easy to find, and now I need to go hunting for the button to do so? The new toolbar is terrible. Please, please just bring the old one back, or at least give us the option to revert back if we prefer the old format. I seriously would not have updated the app if I'd known I'd need to spend more than an hour today trying to figure out where everything is again.

Wow! This was already in goodnotes but it was removed for some reason, so add it back. There is no reason to remove this feature. Let is bookmark pages with just the toolbar without opening the pages tab or the more options menu

Please provide an option to dock the writing toolbar and the bookmark icon into the main top toolbar, similar to the previous version. Although Goodnotes 6 introduces many excellent and attractive new tools, the recent toolbar design changes have reduced my study efficiency.
For this reason, I have decided to downgrade and continue using the previous version. It seems that many other users are experiencing the same issue and requesting similar changes, as there are quite a lot of posts expressing the same opinion.
Would it be possible to make the great new features of Goodnotes 6 available with the previous, more user-friendly toolbar design? Restoring that familiar usability would greatly improve the overall experience for many of us.(Edited by admin) -

Please consider moving the "Add this page to Favorites" button back to the main toolbar. Additionally, in the page overview view, could the option to preview or manage favorited pages be placed directly in the long horizontal toolbarārather than buried in a secondary menu as it is now?
As a student, favoriting pages is by far the most frequently used feature for me in GoodNotes. Currently, I always need two steps to save a page to favorites, which significantly slows down my workflowāand honestly, even affects my ability to keep up during lectures. This change has made the app feel much less efficient and has noticeably degraded my overall experience, which is quite frustrating.
Iād really appreciate it if the team could prioritize making favoriting pages as quick and accessible as possible. Thank you so much for considering this suggestion!
