  1. I am still using the Goodnotes 4 app because the pen thickness options are much better. In 5, the ball pen is either too thin, the smallest option, or too thick, the middle option and higher. None of the present options feel natural. In Goodnotes 4, I use the 3rd weight (2nd thickest) and there is no direct equivalent in 5. The variations between thicknesses in 5 is too great.

  3. A column view like on MacOS or the coming iPadOS. This increase the complete overview of all the documents. Adding some tags would also be nice.

  4. I find the conversions from handwriting to text very slow and annoying. I would love to have a faster way for the conversion. Please look at the sketches.

  8. nice to meet.

    I am using Good Note very well. There is a bug in ScrollView that works when converting fonts on iPhone X.
    Please refer to the video.

    Please contact us once it is confirmed.

  13. By integrating the search in spotlight, I can search for a word in all my files. For example for school I wanna know something about what I wrote down, but I don’t know anymore if I typed in GoodNotes or pages, I can find it within one search.

  16. Good morning,
    Please tell me, if there is any possibility to integrate the hyprtlink-function into goodnotes. With this tool ist should be possible to connect
    Notes within goodnotes to each other or to external documents.

    Kind regards,
    Wolfgang Kunz

  17. would be great to have a built-in cloud storage for all the notes, no need to rely on iCloud
    given that goodnotes 5 on iOS has an insanely powerful global search function, it would be convenient to have it's own cloud that allows you to search for the exact note

  19. So I have been using GoodNotes for about two weeks on my company device, and earlier this week I tried to sync my information in iCloud. Well after an hour of attempting to turn on iCloud Drive, I researched my company guidelines to see if there was something going on with my device. Come to find out, my job prohibits the use of any cloud services to be installed on our devices (google drive, iCloud, Dropbox, etc) as a cyber security effort to keep company information safe. This was a huge bummer. The two weeks I spent creating & organizing…

  20. Hard to explain...
    I use alot of screenshots, from textbooks and quizzes for studying..
    When i need to add those screenshots to a page, i lose track of which image ive already added when the thumbnails are all the same.

    Think of a way to keep an eye on recently used images..
    Maybe a check mark or weird highlight if the image is already used in the document.

    I really dont know, but being able to see which screenshot i just used in a pile of 25 nearly identical shots is rough.
