riting beyond the current page boundaries
In my daily use, I often find the need to jot down quick drafts, make side notes, or add annotations. Currently, these actions require frequent page adjustments or erasing, which can disrupt the flow of my main notes.
I propose adding an option to allow writing beyond the current page boundaries. This feature would enable users to continue writing in adjacent areas without affecting the main content, facilitating smoother note-taking and enhancing flexibility.
Having the ability to toggle this feature on or off would cater to different user preferences and scenarios. I believe this enhancement would significantly improve…

search bar on windows
Can we get a bloody search bar on Windows goodnotes. That is literally the most basic function of an app, yet you guys only have it for IOS. Why do I have to scroll through my many notes on the app just to find one, when I should just be able to find it from the search bar. You keep updating everything but that. Why am I paying for premium if I literally do not have a search bar for my notes on Windows. WHAT IS THE POINT!!!!!!!

Arrow Presets
I’m loving the new arrows, as they’re great for things like mind mapping. As a chemistry student, adding presets for equilibrium and retrosythesis arrows would save my life :)

Greater selection items for drawing
When we draw something or write something I believe we should be able to go back and alter not just the color but the thickness of the stroke, change the line used (straight line, dashed line, dotted line etc).

Grouping Elements
In addition to locking elements we should be able to use the lasso tool to select and group multiple items into one element so when we move on the whole element moves

Folder overview / hierarchy (like Noteful, Onenote etc.) PLEASE
There’s one thing that really limits my productivity: the folder navigation. It’s currently very time-consuming and confusing to navigate between nested folders or PDFs.
You always have to click multiple times to move between documents if they are stored in different subfolders. This becomes extremely inefficient, especially when managing complex hierarchies (like for studies or work).
Please take a look at Noteful or OneNote — they have an excellent folder overview / hierarchy structure that shows all folders and subfolders clearly on one screen (like a sidebar or tab structure).
That way, users can easily switch between documents without losing…4 votes -

Recent Change to GoodNotes and Implications for Projections
Hello GoodNotes.
Love the product and use it on both an IPad and Windows device.
There seems to have been an update recently to include a pen menu in its own little area. On the Windows device this new pen menu appears on top of the document and obscures the top part of the page.
I use both types of device for conducting classes and project Goodnotes on to a screen. With the new update the bottom 5-10mm of the document is no longer displayed by the projector. Is there a work around for this or will I need to…

Merge the two UI bars at the top back to one
All the new split does for me is to take space away from my screen to read or write on. Also the second bar being loose/movable and black in contrast to the white page is distracting me.

Broken “Report an Issue” button in the app
The “Report an Issue” button in the app is broken. All the other buttons to external links work, but instead I had to search for a separate feedback tool online. Very inconvenient and not at all easy site to find. And I had to make a new account.
But of course the “Rate on App Store” button works perfectly.

Options Bar Update (October 2025)
Every time I select anything on screen with the lasso tool the options bar pops up BELOW my selection. Once I go to click out of my selection, the trash button is in the way and deletes my writing. Why on earth would the options bar pop up below when holding down on the selected area results in ANOTHER bar popping up on top of the selection. Super annoying and frustrating when the new position of the tool bar makes me delete everything I select with the lasso tool.

revert back to the old version before the update
The new update is so inefficient, you split up the tool bar which takes up more space, and it makes me feel like there's always a visual barrier at the top which is extremely distracting. listen to the feedback from many of the unsatisfied users, and quickly implement a change. Or, have options for some users to try the new update, or revert back to the old version if they don't like it. Don't just keep the new update simply because your company spent too much time or money on it and you don't want it to go all to…

Please revise the shape snap after latest update and the new arrow feature
So I don't hate the new update, but there are some things that could be a little better. Then new tool bar is taking a bit to get used to, but I genuinely like it. One of my biggest problems is the updated snap to shape. I would like to Goodnotes to snap into shape, but I would like it closer to what I am trying to draw. For example, Goodnotes will not snap into a hexagon to draw organic molecules.
On another note, I see real potential with the arrows for the new shape update. I really like the…

Please bring back our peaceful everyday lives!!! Why the latest update is so bad.
I’ve been using Goodnotes every single day for years. I truly appreciated its clean interface and powerful features that supported my workflow. But the most recent update has drastically changed that, in all the wrong ways.
I kept telling myself, “This update must be useful. I just need to give it time and get used to it.”
So I patiently tried using it for several days, but in the end, I came to the conclusion that this update is harming my mental well-being.Let me outline a few reasons why this update has made the experience worse:

Allow deleting outlines on shapes
With the new update my shapes have to be equipped with an outline. I preferred using the transparent filler colour as a decent highlight for my study notes, which I got by either erasing the outline with a stroke eraser or by pressing "back" once. Please bring back this feature or add the option of "no-outline" when creating a shape.
I'd also love to have my colour presets in the auto-shape menu. It isn't useful to me, when it doesn't align with the colour scheme I use.
