  1. One of the major issues in relation to using a digital file, compared to a traditional paper file is that in a paper file you can attach "post-its" to relevant pages which you can then refer to when you are using that file. This is an essential tool for lawyers, for example. So that, if you are referring to a bundle of files, you can have them in front of you where you can see the protruding tabs and refer to them immediately. The visualisation of the tabs – allows for easy access to the relevant page.

  2. The biggest pro of digital note taking is the boundaries of traditional one and paper that it breaks.
    Studies have shown that learning efficiency and understanding of a subject is increased by higher order learning and mind mapping. For these techniques, an infinite canvas is needed.

    It would be highly appreciated if this function would be added.

    Thank you.

  3. Other Android apps allow use of the physical eraser button of the stylus, but this does not work so far with S-Pen on Galaxy Tab. Selection eraser from the software menu is not very convenient and subpar to other notes apps.

  4. I’d love to see the nav bar color changed to a more neutral, less distracting color.

    You could probably consider this a purist request, but I’ve always found the navy blue navbar to be unappealing and distracting.

    I’m not too interested in offering exact solutions, because I trust that good developers will make good decisions regarding UI and implementation.

    But if I thought about it for a moment, potential solutions could be:

    ● Navbar colors that match the journal cover
    ● Simple user preference w/ preset colors and a custom color swatch option
    ● The ability to change the navbar…

  5. An AI Feature that can convert your typed text into your handwritten Notes in your own handwriting style, if you paste the typed text in Goodnotes and press the new button to convert it into handwriting (like in the picture), so it can seamlessly adapt to your other handwritten notes.

  6. Rectangle professional looking highlighter. Like in microsoft word, adobe acrobat reader or apple books.
    Current one looks unprofessional with business or legal documents.

  7. An AI model integrated within GoodNotes that enhances and refines users' handwriting in real-time, aligning it with their unique personal writing style as they write with the Apple Pencil.
    -Advantage: This would make handwritten notes look cleaner and more consistent, improving readability while retaining the user's individual writing characteristics.

  8. The rotate, resize objects is currently tied to together, therefore when I just want to rotate an object I can’t unless my hand is really steady otherwise it resizes the object as well - these two functions have to be separate.

  9. Add Zoom Percentage, please. The zoom affects the way we write and therefore if we'd like to keep our notes consistent in size and neatness. Adding a zoom percentage display would allow us to know what zoom size we prefer and always set our zoom percentages to that number.

  10. Please integrate the ios18 new notes app feature. The smart script will make me it faster and easier to write. It edits the users handwriting allowing to make it easier to read or add more and other things. Smart Script also maintains the look and feel of a user’s personal handwriting, automatically refining it in real time to be smoother, straighter, and more legible. Please I beg for this feature!!!

  11. I suggest an addition to the tape feature that would allow the user to cover/uncover all of the tape on the current page. This would be extremely useful in slides such as anatomical diagrams, which have many possible areas to cover and study. This feature would immediately remove the repetitiveness of having to go back through and individually re-cover names.

  14. Allow users to record a section in their notes, such as drawing out a diagram and its process, and be able to video playback it. It would be super resourceful since you wouldn't only see the end product, but you'd be able to see the process of how you got there. It can reduce copying and pasting of notes to demonstrate the process.

  15. 굿노트로 공동 작업을 하고 있습니다.
    그런데 멤버마다 선호하는 폰트가 다릅니다. 텍스트 상자에 적용되는 글꼴을 한번에 원하는 폰트로 바꾸는 기능이 있으면 좋겠습니다.
    pc버전에서라도 텍스트 상자 글꼴 바꾸는 버튼을 편집 기능에 넣거나, ctrl+클릭 등의 방법으로 텍스트 상자를 복수로 선택해서 폰트를 한 번에 바꿀 수 있게 부탁드립니다.

  16. I recently learned about your experimental Audio Transcription feature, and I think it is an excellent tool for enhancing productivity and learning. However, I noticed that it currently does not support Chinese transcription. As a Chinese-speaking user, I believe adding Chinese support would significantly improve the accessibility and usability of this feature for a broader audience.

    For users like me, who frequently study in a multilingual environment, having Chinese transcription is essential. Many of my lectures, discussions, and study materials are conducted in Chinese, and the lack of this capability limits my ability to make full use of GoodNotes. Adding…

  20. comment section in goodnotes is very limited
    Trust me majority of goodnotes users are medical students and they uses goodnotes for books mostle sometime for new notes
    so when you read and highlight premade books and pdf there is very little space for adding new points and pictures
    i want goodnotes team to upgrade the comment section so you can add pdf or pictures to the comment section and enable highlighting in comment section and when comment section popups on clicking on it it should be more larger windows so people can read the pdf/pictures/direct text with hightlights more easily…
