  1. As a high school student and soon to be university student, i take a lot of notes, annotations, etc. sometimes, my teachers give us pdf’s to read or just a document of the information, rubric, etc. it would be so much easier to be able to attach a file to the page, like a picture, that you can click and it automatically opens it. i used onenote a lot in middle school, and that was an function that i loved from onenote. i only use goodnotes now and onenote if it’s really necessary, but i’d stop using onenote all together…

  2. Hello,
    I´m one of the new M1 Ipad Pro user´s and the new Ipad has 8GB of Ram (or 16) and the goodnotes app still can´t have 4 tabs loaded at the same time.

    If I have 3 Tabs open I can swap between them without them loading again but if I open a fourth tab every other tab needs to reload again and that shouldn´t be the case since the new Ipad has way more RAM and so goodnotes should make us of that

  3. Dear GoodNotes team,
    I really love your app. I’m a student who started using an iPad for school stuff during the pandemic. Since i started using GoodNotes i fell in love with the powerfull simplicity of the app. There is just one feature i would love to see added.
    I would really enjoy the option to create pages who are as long as I’d like them to be. My idea is a pages that can fit a whole topic and you never painfully have to tun pages during writing. Once you are done with the entry you can cut of…

  5. 我希望能夠在iPad橫向放置的時候,能夠一次顯示兩頁的資料。新增這個功能讓我們可以自行選擇及設定。
    這樣在瀏覽樂譜的時候將會方便很多!!!

  6. great, we can do it with pens and highlighting, why not fonts. i don't always have the greatest handwriting, so at times I like to type my notes, and would like to have the same creative freedom. at this point why would I not just use google docs? i got goodnotes for the creative and hands on freedom it offered but this is seriously annoying

  7. I like to start my header with a cute font that helps me differentiate between sections and navigate more easily to a topic when I review for exams. My process for extending the notes on section when I run out of space for a page entails a complicated ceremony of tapping on the “More Options” menu, then selecting “Copy Page”, then waiting a second or so for it to copy, then tapping on the “+” page button, then selecting “Paste Page”, and finally a brisk celebration knowing I didn’t have to copy a page by hand that I spent ten…

  10. I and anyone remotely teaching is in need of 16:9 aspect ratio size notebooks. There’s none supplied. The problem is with none 16:9 notebook sizes is the appearance of black frames from both sides.

    This is the only reason I have to use Notability instead.

  11. Seyes template or french school ruling template would be nice. It is possible though to copy one as a pdf and use it as a background, but this would be a nice add on.

  12. I use Goodnotes for idea generation for work and the one thing I miss from my previous app for this (Forge) is the ability to move pages around on a kind of pinboard grid, placing them wherever I want (in groups, solo, rows, columns, with space between them if desired). It would allow free-form placement of the pages on a grid perhaps 6 pages deep and as long as it needs to be, and would be an alternative mode to the traditional notebook sequential page style you currently have. Instead of opening up the sequential thumbnails view, it would open…

  13. In the app, there are two different menu points where you can change the option whether you want to fill in the shapes or not. But if I change it at the pen menu, the same change occurs at the shapes menu.
    But it would be cool to be able to draw not filled in shapes when the pen is selected an to be able to draw filled in shapes when you select the shapes menu. So that the two buttons are not connected together.

  14. Since the last update, if you want to copy or cut some text out and past it somewhere else, you first need to hold long onto the text, and then you need to switch to the menu to the right. Before the update you didn't need to switch to the right, this was better and faster.
    Maybe this is because me tablet language is in german and not English

  15. There is an app muse, who to tell you the truth is a bad app but has a very unique feature and that it has infinity amount of flashcards on it that they can become bigger and smaller and you can even add a card inside another

    What am asking for is simple a flashcard that you see its containt and can controle its size that when you want to use you can make it bigger, this flashcard has an infinitesimal size or at least the size of a typical page

    This feature is like a game-changer for most of…

  20. Continually exporting my notes into pdf result in endless filenames, if the file already exists: „Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of filename.pdf“.

    To prevent this, a checkbox „overwrite, if file exists“ in the pdf-export-options would be very helpful.
