  1. Since the latest GoodNotes 6 update, the text box tool has become a bit annoying to use. Before, I could select the text box tool once and keep adding multiple text boxes without having to click it again each time. Now, after I add one text box, the tool automatically deselects, and I have to tap the text box icon again to make a new one. It makes writing notes much slower and less convenient. I’d really prefer if the old behaviour came back or if there was an option to keep the text box tool active.

  2. Why can't I rotate shapes? This is a very basic function of all note taking apps.

    Why can't I make shapes smaller than an arbitrary vertical size threshold? You can make shapes as skinny as you want, but you cannot make them shorter than some random limit the team(?) decided was an appropriate size.

    Not being able to make small shapes and/or rotate shapes at all severely limits my ability to take notes and make diagrams in classes like biochemistry and biology (which is probably a significant portion of your users, btw!).

    This existed in 6... why would you remove…

  3. After the new update, the toolbar is:

    1: Intrusive - floats in the middle of your page.

    2: Convoluted - many more key presses required to access basic tools with many of them missing from the toolbar with no ability to add them / no idea where they went (zoom window).

    3: Non-customizable????????? Why can't I customize the toolbar? I never use the pencil. I never use tape. Why is the lasso not with the writing tools? At LEAST give me the option to change the order of tools not only on the tool bar, but on the tool palette…

  5. I opened the app today and suddenly the eholr app changed. I mean, the whiteboard and the new shapes (especially the arrows) are such a good idea but the new toolbar is really uncomfortable to work with… especially the text options and the font changing is really annoying. please bring the previos toolbar back!!! Or at least give an option to decide if we want the old or new designs

  7. Its a relatively new feature. I think it needs improvements. I am going to list some that i think needs to be changed:

    • We should be able to put passwords to files
    • Forgot password option via TouchID
    • Asking for password before sharing the locked documents (at least an option)
    • Not opening every single locked documents when I open just one (at least an option)
    • Locking the document immediately after I click the close button (not the home - button that leaves the doc open) (at least an option)

  8. With the new update - as soon as you insert a rectangle using the shape tool (love that you get a perfect rectangle every time by the way thanks for this!), it automatically assumes you want to add text. I NEVER do. I do want to resize it though. So I have to click off it to resize it. I would prefer to have the default option of rectangle without text and then, as it is now, to click in the middle of the rectangle to add text.
    Thanks!

  10. I recently switched to Cable TV for my home internet and TV services, and I have to say, it’s been a game-changer. Their packages, including Spectrum Internet, offer reliable speed for streaming, gaming, and working from home without interruptions One of the best things about Cable TV is the variety of options. Whether you need high-speed internet, a wide range of TV channels, or bundled services, they’ve got you covered. It’s convenient to manage everything under one provider.

  11. The new “Text Documents” feature is excellent and very well implemented. However, the removal of the option to type directly in classic notebooks reduces flexibility. Many users appreciate being able to switch freely between handwriting and typing on e.g. A4 pages. I suggest keeping the new “Text Documents” as they are, but reintroducing the ability to type directly in classic notebooks instead of being limited to separate text boxes.

  13. I’ve been hearing a lot about kpv peptide lately and its potential benefits for reducing inflammation, supporting gut health, and aiding recovery. What makes it unique is that it’s a naturally occurring fragment of the alpha-MSH hormone, known for its anti-inflammatory and protective properties This connects well with the mission of Dr Rogercenter, a brand that focuses on innovative health solutions and long-term wellness. Dr Rogercenter has always highlighted therapies that not only address symptoms but also improve the body’s resilience and balance. KPV peptide seems to align perfectly with that vision, offering a natural way to support healing and…

  14. Since the new update (7.0.3) and the introduction of the new toolbar, the textbox feature has become unusable. I need to write a lot of notes for my studies using the textbox, and in the old version, once you selected the textbox tool, it stayed active until you manually switched to another tool, such as the pencil. However, since the new update, every time I finish typing in a textbox, it automatically switches back to the lasso tool. This means I have to constantly reselect the textbox, which completely disrupts my workflow. It’s becoming so frustrating that I’m seriously considering…

  15. Feature Request:

    Dear Developers,

    I would like to request a built-in image quality enhancement feature for the note-taking app. Imported images often become blurry due to screenshotting or file transfer issues, which affects the reading and viewing experience in notes.

    This feature could include (but not be limited to) AI super-resolution technology—capable of sharpening blurry details, reducing pixelation, and improving overall clarity of imported images. It would greatly enhance the usability of the app when managing image-containing notes, especially for users who frequently add screenshots or transferred images.

    Thank you for considering this request!

  17. This update is ridiculous!!! Can’t even start typing unless you go to the textbox function and hold it down and click start typing… absolutely ridiculous and inconvenient. The old toolbar was MUCH better. Bring it back… a lot of people are unhappy

  18. Ireland's healthcare industry is changing very fast, requiring skilled professionals who are capable of providing outstanding patient care while coping with contemporary challenges. Professional healthcare staffing services in Ireland are vital in filling the gap by linking hospitals, clinics, and care centers with experienced medical professionals.

    These healthcare staffing services extend beyond hiring—these services make sure healthcare providers hire professionals who share their organization's culture, ethics, and service standards. Whether nurses, allied health professionals, or locum medical staff, Ireland's healthcare staffing agencies reduce the process of hiring with effective screening, credentialing, and compliance screening.

    To healthcare facilities, such solutions minimize…

  19. Notion like document editor. On which I can annotate with pencil. Code format text, colored text, checkbox, toggle and much more like in notion. The current text editor is too rigid. It must be made a bit more user friendly.
