  2. 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. When I enable Read-Only Mode, a small down-arrow button appears at the top-left corner of the page (as shown in the attached screenshot).
    I understand that this is a navigation/UI control, but while reading or revising my notes, this button becomes a visual distraction.

    More importantly, the button overlaps with the content of my notes. As a result, some parts of my notes underneath or near the button are partially hidden and are not clearly visible. This becomes particularly inconvenient when I am trying to read or revise the notes.

    Could you please consider adding an option in Settings to…

  6. Feature Idea: Quick Page Linking & Navigation

    I would love to see an easier way to link one page in a Goodnotes notebook to another page.

    Currently, if I want to link to a specific page—especially in a large notebook with hundreds of pages—it can be difficult and time-consuming to find the exact page I want.

    My idea: Add an additional drop-down menu or page-selection box when creating a link. Instead of having to scroll through hundreds of pages to find the destination page, the user could simply:

    1. Select “Link to Page.”
    2. Open a drop-down/search box.
    3. Type the page number,…

  7. Diverse Question Formats: Teachers can design drop-down menus, multiple-choice options, drag-and-drop elements, and spoken-response fields. 



    Instant Formative Feedback: Students receive automated, real-time grading, and teachers get instant performance metrics to diagnose learning gaps immediately.

  8. I really like the whiteboard feature as it enables others and me to collaborate cross-platform on the same infinite canvas like on Freeform, where only Apple users can collaborate.

    But I miss the background options you get with ordinary.

    I also miss scenes from Freeform, which can serve as keynote slides, table of contents and a general outline of the whole mind-map.

    For me as a math and it student, this would be much appreciated.

  9. Goodnotes AI – Get Answers Using External AI Provider APIs

    Goodnotes currently has its own AI model, but I was wondering if it would be possible to also receive answers using AI APIs from external providers instead of being limited to the Goodnotes AI model.

    I previously suggested something similar, but I found a better example that demonstrates what I mean.

    Goodnotes AI

    • Goodnotes AI is included depending on the user's Goodnotes subscription plan.
    • In addition to the Goodnotes model, users can also use models such as GPT, Gemini, Claude, and others.

    Let users connect the AI services they already

  10. 이미지를 첨부하고 위에 필기를 쓰려고 하면 자꾸 이미지 선택이 돼서 불편해요. 고정 기능을 켜도 움직이는 것만 막지, 선택이 안 되게 막는 방법은 아무리 찾아도 없어요. 전에 문서 설정에서 이미지 객체 무슨 기능 있었던 것 같은데, 그게 없어진건지, 이제는 안 보이네요? 다시 넣어주세요 please ㅜㅜ

  12. Hello! i know the whiteboard already exists, but i feel they are quite limited in file size, as well as can get overwhelming for certain purposes. i think it would be great to ADDITIONALLY have an infinite scrolling note, but not infinite sideways, only downwards. This is a great in between for many purposes, and it is quite similar to a common format found throughout many apps such as apple notes, upnote, etc... having a goodnotes version of this would definitely be amazing!
    of course one thing to keep in mind is to add the ability to lasso "under a…

  13. Being able to select multiple text boxes and change their font, size, or colour all at once.
    = Streamline formatting and save time
    Especially when working with longer documents or needing to make quick adjustments after a lecture.

    When sharing my notes with friends, they may not like my font, so if i could just multi select and change it in seconds, it would be so useful!

    Please please add this feature!

  15. I want Goodnotes to let me permanently zoom the page/canvas out to a much smaller percentage (like 20%) and keep it at that zoom level, like Noteful does. With the ability to zoom it back to 100%.

  16. Implement Dual-Page and Quad-Page View Modes in GoodNotes(like the following fig)
    Dear GoodNotes Development Team,
    I am a dedicated user of GoodNotes and would like to express my appreciation for the excellent note-taking and PDF annotation features your app offers. As someone who heavily relies on GoodNotes for academic research, document organization, and creative projects, I have found the app to be indispensable. However, I would like to suggest a new feature that I believe could significantly enhance the app’s flexibility and productivity: the ability to display two-page or four-page views simultaneously.

  17. I and lots of my friends in Thailand use Goodnotes, it's an app that everybody that takes notes whether in school, work, or anywhere here will use or at least know what it is. If you could add Thai as a language in spellchecks, it will help us Thais a lot. Thank you for your consideration.

  19. Hi Goodnotes Team,

    I’m a medical student and have been using your wonderful app, including a paid subscription, for several years. Goodnotes has become one of my main study tools, and overall I’ve had a very positive experience with it.

    However, my main issue has always been the limited maximum zoom level.

    As a medical student, I often create very detailed pages containing multiple questions, explanations, diagrams, and summary tables all on one page. Because of this, some of the text can be quite small, and I often need to zoom in further to read it comfortably. Unfortunately, the current…

  20. I really love these flashcards, but some adjustments would be great

    1) if I were able to quickly edit a flashcard when in learning mode that would make things a lot easier, I can delete or add something that I just realised it needed.

    2) If they could make it so you can have a preset background colour for your flashcards, rather than having to change the background colour every time you make a new study set.
