Proposal to Improve the Template Change Feature (+ Add “Replace Page” and “Replace File” Functions)
Currently, Goodnotes does not offer a feature that allows users to replace pages in the same way as a “Change PDF” function. While there is a template change feature, it is limited to Goodnotes’ built-in templates and note-style formats, and requires importing content into Goodnotes first.
In many cases, there are situations where a page needs to be replaced—for example, when a lecture material contains typos or when an updated version of the file is provided. Therefore, it would be highly useful to have a feature that allows users to select a replacement file (from Google Drive, iCloud Drive, or other cloud storage services) and directly replace the existing page that contains errors or needs revision.
In addition, a “Replace File” feature would be valuable, allowing users to swap the entire document with an updated version while preserving existing annotations, structure, or page order where possible. Such functionality would greatly improve workflow efficiency, especially for students and professionals who frequently work with revised lecture materials or documents.
