ToolBar Position and Online Teachers
Dear Goodnotes Team,
My name is Praphul P, and I am from India. I am currently building an online educational platform that will launch in the next two months. During my research, I found Goodnotes to be the most powerful and suitable tool for conducting classes, mainly because of its smooth writing experience and excellent web interface.
However, after the recent update, the interface—especially the new toolbar design—has become difficult to work with. Many of the tools and buttons are now positioned inside the canvas area, which was not the case earlier. This creates a major issue for educators like…

Split Screen
95% of the time I use this app I am in split screen mode. Just yesterday I was able to switch between pen colors and pen sizes with 1 tap. Now (even stripping my tool bar to the bare minimum) the pen sizes are consolidated and I need to tap a button then tap the pen size I want- even though there is extra space in the bar to expand the menu. This app is starting to feel clunky, I need to tap twice to change my pen size, I need to tap twice to book mark a page, it…

READ ONLY mode with tools enabled!!
I would like to KEEP the minimalistic look of the READ ONLY MODE ( w LIGHT GREY toolbar with the option to HIDE it COMPLETELY by a (double-) tap on the document with finger) BUT HAVE THE LAST TOOL ENABELD like PENCIL/ PEN, as well..
Mainly I want to EDIT my Document while in FULL SCREEN MODE without DISTRACTIONS!
The blue bar is soo unnecessary when in deep writing mode and talkes wayyy too much space and whose COLOUR is NOT CUSTOMIZABLE, AT ALL sadly still!!
WHY this HARD BLUE, all the time?!
Thanks!1 vote -
single colour pick selection/lasso
Colour picker to PICK ONE SPECIFIC COLOUR to SELECT ONLY!!
For example: only SELECT the grey pencil lines but DON'T SELECT the BLACK or RED PENCIL strokes nearby or on top!
That we we can ALTER those specific lines ONLY!! ( For example colour change them afterward, copy paste or change size or move them only)
Currently it's VERY TEDIOUS or IMPOSSIBLE to PICK SPECIFIC Lines when there are many..Would be GREAT for SKETCHING!! And that way we could SKETCH in ONE colour and draw in ANOTHER COLOUR on TOP and STILL be able to change the older lines below…1 vote -
Highlighter shapes
I think it would be very benefitial to be able to pick basic shapes for the highlighter. Even simply being able to choose the rounded edge or a straight edge. You offer a few options for the pen, so in the same vein, keeping a few options for the highlighter could be set up the same way! Being able to have sharp and exact edges could really make notes look alot cleaner, without all the overlap! Thanks so much!

shapes as sticky tool
- Could you add an option to make autoshape tool as sticky tool. I usuanly draw shapes, add connection to them, adjust size and position, then keep on drawing. After adjust shapes, it gets back to Lasso tool automatically, then I need to switch back manually every time I want to keep on next shape.
- Another thing is about the connector. Could you add a function so I can delete intermediate point on a connector. Too many relay points make the connector difficult to adjust.

Can’t change colors with split screen
With the new update tool bar you can’t change colors in split screen unless you move the tool bar to the side. This is so inconvenient and frustrating especially considering this was not an issue before the latest updates and change in the tool bar. With the old tool bar this was not an issue since you could scroll to select tools, size, or color.
This is another example of why the new tool bar is awful and inefficient when working! Please let us revert to the old update! Or at the very least the old tool bar!!

Improving Coloring Efficiency and Other Tools
GoodNotes can be limited when it comes to coloring. I wish we had a paint bucket tool to fill in areas faster, as well as a blending tool to avoid harsh lines when coloring. I often have to color for lab reports, and it's inconvenient to do that on GoodNotes. I also wish we could select things with the lasso without it dragging whatever is behind it. At times, I have to change a portion I colored, but it drags anything it overlaps with, making it difficult to select a specific area. The eraser tool can also have more sizing…

I want to invert white and black.
When filming live, white backgrounds are too bright and interfere with the live stream, so I want to invert white to black.
Leave other colors unchanged.1 vote -
New Shape Tool: Ability to disable auto-connection of shapes
Please create the option to turn off auto connection of connector lines to pre-defined shapes drawn with the shape tool. I understand this was designed for diagramming but I am picky about my notes being neat, organized, and symmetrical so I really like using this tool to draw my own figures as well as perfect arrows/shapes. However, the auto connect makes it very frustrating and annoying to use because my lines are redirected to connect to nearby shapes and there is no way of detaching them to still draw the lines where I need them to go. They cannot even…

Text Box Line Change
Please disable this automatic line changing or increase the limit of words for line change. It doubles the work as again we have to stretch the box to make while text appear in single line.

[Oct 2025 Update] - Geometric figures
Add the possibility of remove the object area that anchorages writing, forms to a form.
This new feature doesn't allow drawing over some figures and makes the drawing experience terrible on goodnotes.
Let the user choose in he needs the area or not.It would also be nice to be able to draw geometric shapes that are more similar to those drawn by hand.
For example, quarters and semicircles, which are currently transformed into parabolas.1 vote -
Hold and Fill Color, Deletion of the outlines
When you draw something and hold, there'll be a faded color of your pen inside the shape. The latest update make me couldn't delete the outline of the shape and that makes taking notes way worseee. I love those more than highlighting. PLEASE BRING IT BACKKKK I BEG.

links - improve usability
Goodnotes has implemented links to websites as well as internal pages for some time now. However, they are still incredibly cumbersome to use, especially for handwriters. I propose the following improvements:
1) Internal links
In most cases the page one wants to link to is already open in another tab or window side by side. But to create a link there we still have to navigate to this page again within the link creation dialogue.
It would be faster and more intuitive to have an additional entry in the document menu and page browser to simply copy a link to…1 vote -
Scribble to delete
Scribble to delete is a nice feature. Unfortunately if turned on, it accidentally deletes drawings. Would it be possible to delete by scribble only at FAST pencil movements?

Rundungen in Ecken deaktivieren
Seit dem letzten Windows Update werden bei der automatischen Linienführung Rundungen in den Ecken erstellt. Dies sollte deaktiviert werden können. Ich nutze Goodnotes im Unterricht um Elektroschemas und Elektrosymbole zu zeichnen. Goodnotes ist das einzige mir bekannte Programm, welches diese Funktion so gut beherrscht. Daher empfehle ich es jedem Lernenden und jeder Lehrperson weiter. Bitte mit dem nächsten Update die automatische Linienführung mit Ecken wieder möglich machen.
