Multi-color / Dual-color pen strokes
Hi GoodNotes Team,
I'm a student who uses GoodNotes daily for my lectures and note-taking. I had a creative idea that I think would make the writing experience much more fun and unique.
Currently, the pen tool only writes in one solid color. What if there was an option for a "Multi-color" or "Bordered" pen? For example, a pen stroke that has one color in the center and a completely different color on the outer edges.
I’ve attached a sketch I made to demonstrate the idea (a light blue stroke with red edges, and another with purple edges). I think…1 vote -
Apple Pencil shortcuts
It would be very practical to be able to choose the tools that are associated with the double-tap function of the Apple Pencil. Simple yet very efficient feature for a smoother workflow while writing.

TextDoc Formatting Features - Font Size & Aligning/Indenting
TextDoc
I have been a GoodNotes user for several years throughout my undergraduate time and plan to continue using it through graduate school. I have fallen in love with the TextDoc option, but there are several issues. First, when exporting a TextDoc to a PDF, there is very little room on the "printed" PDF, especially if any headings are used, which is an integral feature for lengthy notes. If DevOps has any way to ensure the headings are kept while the overall size is altered when imported. This could be solved by changing the Text or Font size. Second, another…

Use page names rather than page numbers when creating links
When we create a link to another page within our documents we currently have to specify by page number. For documents with many pages it's not helpful having to remember which page has what information.
All the pages can be renamed, so it would make sense if those names were displayed in addition to the page number.
That would allow a quick way of identifying and linking to a specific page.
The thumbnails that do show are often far too small to allow you to see the page's content.

Creating stable internal links
When a page that has a text link to another internal page is duplicated, the link in the new duplicated page does not work. This means that it is futile to create page templates because every time the page is duplicated, all the links need to be updated.
I understand that page order is the reason stable links are a challenge, but if the reference page to which the link is pointing is above the duplicated page, the order of the reference page has not changed. At least make this functionality possible, with the understanding that if the position of…1 vote -
Add backspace button in text box
It would be very helpful if there was a dedicated backspace button (similar to the enter button to start a new line) for the text box. When I’m writing and converting to text it would be easier to be able to backspace and delete certain letters or words or remove a line or indent I made by having a backspace button like when typing on a traditional keyboard.

Rounded corners on shapes
There should be an option to draw shapes with rounded corners added to the new stroke settings similar to the ability to draw dashed and dotted lines and arrows heads. This idea was posted 2 other times back in 2020 but has not been addressed or updated.

Suggestion about adding an widget option in side bar.
I suggest adding a widget/tool option in side bar . This could include tools like a browser, AI tools, graph creators, calculators, and even custom or local AI tools. Any output from these tools shouldbe directly importable into notes. Also give us an option where, users could create and publish tools, and others could use or buy them as needed. This would make GoodNotes a complete all-in-one productivity app.
Hey guys upvote it please .to have soon this feature.2 votes -
Shape autofill
I used to use the shape snap feature when writing notes. Previously the shape would automatically fill in with a less opaque colour, and I had the option to erase the filled colour using the erase tool, or leave it but change the colour(both of which I used on different occasions). In the new update I can't erase or change the filled in colour and my only options are to disable the autofill colour altogether, or to just ignore it. I don't understand why this feature was removed.

Variable Page Length
Allow pages to be variable length so that ideas and content can be organized and not limited to print sizes. I use the cornell notes template, and often use the que and summary section to cram in more notes of similar ideas to keep it all together, which is counterproductive in a digital format. Google Docs has pageless scrolling, which is similar, but I do like the notebook format of page breaks when I want a new concept/idea.

Add OCR and Live Text Features to GoodNotes
I often import lecture PDF files into GoodNotes to take notes and add annotations. In many cases, professors or instructors provide materials as text-based PDFs. However, there are also many situations where the files have been converted from PDF → image → PDF, making the text unselectable and turning the entire document into an image.
When a document is image-based, tasks such as translating the content, searching for unfamiliar terms on the web, or asking GoodNotes AI questions about specific text become difficult. Currently, GoodNotes AI’s OCR capabilities for image-based documents are quite limited, and it sometimes misrecognizes text or…

Half-Page Turn
I Guarantee you this will make your app 3x more appealing to performing musicians. I use Goodnotes for ALL my score studying but I always need to export to Piascore or Forscore for my performances just because of their half-page turn feature. I’ve been doing this for a couple of years now but the jumping between apps has becoming really tiring. I’m begging you, please add this feature to the read mode.

Drag and Drop from PDFs to notebook while removing background
While in split screen, it would be very useful if we were able to drag and drop images between windows as a PNG. For example, if I’m reading a neuroscience PDF textbook, i want to be able to click and hold a diagram, drag it to my notebook page, and drop it without the white background. Currently, you can only copy-paste screenshots. We should be able to remove the background. other apps can do this and I would rather it be in goodnotes.

Image lock failure
You completed the image lock. Yay!
Unfortunately once an image is locked, I cannot use the links programmed into the base document that are behind the image. Added links can be layered on top but the base document cannot be altered.1 vote -
Diary function
Please refer to diary apps such as Day One.
・Since I use it for diary purposes, I would be happy if a notebook function specialized for diaries was added in the future. If a function like a map database is added, it would be great if there is a mechanism that can record location information.
・I want a function like an album by tagging notes and images.
・If there is a calendar function that can be checked back on a date basis, I think it will be very attractive as a diary.
・There are a ridiculous number of notebooks in…
