Shape tool is not as good as before
Shape tool has become worse than goodnotes 6. Earlier we could draw any shape by drawing and holding the shape but now it converts every weird shape into a perfect shape line like square, rectangle or star
Just make it as flexible as goodnotes 6 shape tool12 votes -
Theme Customization
Please introduce a theme customization feature in Goodnotes.
It would be great if users could personalize the app by selecting their own colors or applying themes from a theme store.
In addition to light and dark mode, please allow customization of the writing UI, menu colors, and background styles as well.3 votes -
Permanent tab bar
When I have a document open, the tab bar shows a tab for each open document. Also, the Home tab appears on the left in the tab bar. When I click on it, the tab bar with the open documents disappears. To get back to the open documents, I then have to open a document again.
It would be easier if in the Home view (a) the tab bar remained permanently at the top (so that the Home view is just another tab), or (b) there was a shortcut called “Open documents” on the left.

searchable sticky notes
the sticky notes are searchable while expanded...but the instant you collapse them the content can't be searched..Also image addition to the sticky notes should be feature. And the text in the added images(screenshots) should be searchable as well.

Option to Hide undo/redo button
While writing down reference details of the contents being written in the notes, the undo/redo button often comes above it in the top right/left. Hiding it while using the gestures for undo/redo is a better option in this case.

Grid spacing and ruler should follow standard measurements (2 squares = 1 cm)
I would like to suggest aligning the grid spacing and the ruler in GoodNotes with common measurement standards.
In many countries (for example in Europe), squared paper follows a standardized pattern where two squares equal exactly 1 cm. This standard is widely used in schools, universities, and technical work.
Currently in GoodNotes, however, two squares correspond to about 1.12 cm when measured with the built-in ruler. Because of this mismatch, the ruler becomes difficult to use for precise measurements or technical sketches. Lines drawn using the grid do not correspond correctly to real-world measurements.
This can be especially inconvenient for…5 votes -
Reinstitute object selection toggle
Please put the object selection toggle back. When a writing tool, I do not want to select an image without purposely using the lasso tool. It makes writing on images difficult.

Rotate page when writing
Can you please make it to where we can rotate the page or turn it to the side slightly when writing like you would in procreate or on a regular piece of paper? I find myself having to turn my iPad to the side or my body just to get comfortable when writing. That would be a cool idea to implement.

Floatingbar
Please consider adding an option to switch between a fixed and floating toolbar. The floating toolbar is distracting during long study sessions and slows down workflow. A fixed toolbar was much more efficient and comfortable to use. Having both options would greatly improve the user experience.

[Audio Recording] Allow Manual Scrolling While Live Transcript Is Running
As a college student who uses audio recordings in lectures to ensure I can write exactly what the professor says, it is frustrating that I cannot scroll up while a live transcript is going. Each time I try to scroll up, it automatically pulls you back down to what is currently being transcribed. I would like to be able to scroll up, it keeps my place, and click a button when you want to resume current transcript.

[GIPHY] Ability to crop GIFs inserted
Now, Goodnotes allows to insert GIFs natively from the stickers tool, powered by GIPHY, but i would like to have the ability to crop them, some times there are GIFs that i only want part of it to adjust around my text or to shape them a bit... it would be nice to have the option just like we have with other selections

Add right margin to PDF for annotations
This option adds a 2,5 inch margin at the right side of the document for annotating. The margin is collapsible afterwards or can be kept open permanently. This way one can annotate on PDFs with tiny margins without having to compress all the info.

[Audio Recording] Allow recorded audio to be attached next to handwritten notes
音楽の授業で、先生のお手本のフレーズをメモするために録音機能を使っています。手書きのメモの横に録音した素材を貼り付けることが出来たら、振り返りがもっと簡単になるのになぁと思っています。
In music class, I use the recording function to write down the teacher's sample phrases. If you could paste the recorded material next to the handwritten memo, it would be easier to look back.12 votes -
Set default font type and size for typing in sticky notes
I really appreciate that you can set a default font type and size for text boxes. It's really helped me streamline my notes when needed. I also really love the sticky note feature, but it's quite time consuming to change the font type and size when typing on sticky notes.
It would be amazing if a future update would give you the option of setting a default font type and size for typing in sticky notes! Thanks!

[Fountain Pen] Lock Nib Angle
When using the fountain pen with Apple Pencil rotation enabled, users must constantly re-adjust their grip to keep the nib horizontal. Locking rotation forces a fixed default angle that often looks unnatural for a fountain pen.
Please add the option to lock the nib at a user-defined angle, for example by letting the user set the angle with a slider so the pen hits the page the same way every time. See image for example. This would greatly improve writing flow, style and comfort.

Horizontal Highlighting Feature for Improved PDF Annotation
Good morning,
I am leaving this comment because I believe it could help improve the user experience of the application. I am a student, and I use it daily for reading, highlighting PDFs, and taking notes, especially on texts.
One of the main issues I encounter when studying on a tablet is that, when using the stylus with the highlighter function, my hand is not very steady, and the lines I draw are usually uneven. I know that by holding the stroke at the end it automatically straightens, but in many cases my stroke is so irregular that the correction…

High resolution JPEG image export for Whiteboard
I love the new whiteboard feature, but it seems that it has been built without exporting in mind with the only option to export still being a PDF file. This makes it impossible to export most whiteboards without losing quality, and making large whiteboards unreadable. Similar to Microsoft whiteboard, it would be fantastic if there was the option for a high resolution JPEG image export feature to complement the new update. Thank you!

Create tabs on the side for easier access to the page/content
In Nursing school, we take a lot of notes. I'm sure other subjects else too. But I wish I didn't have to scroll through dozens of pages to find something. I wish I was able to add a little tab on the side, color code it and name it. I know you can "flag" It but it's not very helpful because I have to open the side and then try to find the one page I flagged.
For example. If I download a book - I have to scroll through all the pages to look for the chapters. If the…4 votes -
Formatting updates broke note consistency
How about you stop changing the layout/form or how thing work. You make it impossible for me. Always changing how tu bullet points are laced out, the padding, saving the default text. Now half my notes are laced out differently and worse form the other half. Genuinely inconsiderate. Making so many unnecessary changes.

Improve GoodNotes AI Performance
Currently, GoodNotes AI can only be used for basic document search (an advanced version of search) and asking questions within a document. Even when hints or correct answers exist in the document, it often responds with messages like, “The requested content cannot be found in the document. I will answer using general knowledge.”
In addition, I would like the AI to provide answers that directly address my questions, but instead it often gives summarized or reorganized responses, making it difficult to find the exact answer I am looking for.
For example, when I ask, “Is XX correct?”, the response usually…7 votes
