Swipeable Menus
To making changing between the different menus (i. e. between pen settings, eraser settings) easier and less of a reach, being able to swipe between tool menus to choose different settings would be convenient. For instance, assuming the menu is on the left of the screen and we’re currently on the eraser menu, swiping left from the menu to the edge of the screen (1A) would go to the pen menu(1B). Alternatively swiping right from the edge of the screen to the menu from the eraser settings (2A) would go to text menu (2B). I’ve attached screenshots with arrows for…

Feature Request: Add Text in Text Box to Handwriting Conversion
Feature Request: Add Text Box to Handwriting Conversion
I would like to request a feature that converts typed text into handwriting, similar to Apple’s Markup functionality.It would be great if GoodNotes could analyze the user’s existing handwritten notes within documents and use that handwriting style to convert typed text into personalized handwriting.
If no handwriting data is available, the app could prompt the user to provide handwriting samples for analysis and learning.This feature would allow typed text to blend naturally with handwritten notes, improving consistency and the overall note-taking experience in GoodNotes.

Feature Request: Display Thinking and Reference Steps in GoodNotes AI Responses
Feature Request: Display Thinking and Reference Steps in GoodNotes AI Responses
When asking questions to GoodNotes AI, I noticed that during the beta version, the AI appeared to show a visible thinking or preparation process while generating answers. However, in the official release, it only displays “Preparing answer…”.I would like to request that, similar to the beta version, the AI shows more detailed thinking and reference steps, such as what it is referencing and what it is preparing, during the response generation process.
Having visibility into the AI’s reasoning and preparation process would improve transparency, trust, and the overall…

Request to Improve Lasso Tool Visibility and Selection Feedback
Request to Improve Lasso Tool Visibility and Selection Feedback
As shown in the attached images, it would be beneficial to add a movement or animated effect to the Lasso tool so that users can more clearly recognize its motion while selecting an area.
Additionally, similar to the Lasso tool in Photoshop, I would like to request a feature that allows users to visually confirm exactly which handwritten content has been selected when using the Lasso tool. When selecting handwritten notes, it is sometimes unclear which parts are included in the selection.
For example, as illustrated in the images, it would…

Request to Add Tip Sharpness, Pressure Sensitivity, and Tip Flatness Options to the Highlighter
Request to Add Tip Sharpness, Pressure Sensitivity, and Tip Flatness Options to the Highlighter
I would like to request the addition of tip sharpness, pressure sensitivity, and tip flatness options to the highlighter tool.
With these features, the shape of the highlighter stroke could change depending on the tilt of the pen tip, and setting the tip flatness to 100% could produce a more angular, chisel-like highlighter shape rather than a rounded one.
These controls are essential for achieving more precise, realistic, and professional highlighting behavior, and they would significantly enhance the flexibility and usability of the highlighter tool.

Request for Improved Pencil Writing Feel (Adding Jitter Control and Grit Control Options)
As shown in the attached image, a pencil thickness of approximately 0.3–0.35 mm provides the most comfortable writing experience. When the thickness is set above or below this range, the jitter either becomes too weak or too strong, which significantly reduces writing satisfaction.
For this reason, I would like to request the addition of adjustable jitter control and grit (texture) control options.
Additionally, the current pencil tool lacks advanced customization options. To enhance professional writing and drawing experiences, I propose separating the pencil tool into distinct categories, such as pencil and mechanical pencil. Furthermore, similar to real pencils (e.g., 2B,…

Central task list on user workstation for all ‘selected’ workbooks
I sometimes work with several workbooks in parallel, for example, several projects. I maintain one workbook per project.
It would be great if there were a task function (task type, task, task description, responsible person, deadline, status, task category, relevance indicator in the central task register) that would converge centrally on a user workstation, regardless of which workbook it is in. This would make work much easier. It would allow to-dos recorded in meetings to be managed more effectively without losing track of the big picture.
If it were also possible to synchronise by task type (calendar entry, task entry)…

Make the pop-up menu that has the font size, color, format a floating menue.
Make the pop-up menu for font color, size, and format float. Whenever I want to adjust or edit a text, the menu box pops up and gets in my way of what I want to change. I flip my screen to try to get around it but the menu is still in the way. I can’t drag it to move it.

Smoother typing experience please!
Text tool feels clunky compared to Google Docs
Issue: Copy/paste, selecting text, and typing across pages doesn’t feel smooth or reliable.
Why it’s annoying: The friction breaks flow and makes typed notes feel like a worse experience than handwriting.
Request: Improve the text tool to behave more like Google Docs:Auto-add pages as text grows (no manual page management)
Smoother transitions across pages when selecting/typing/erasing
More reliable copy/paste behavior

Shape Adjusters (circles) are too big
When selecting shapes, there are circles along the borders which can be dragged to adjust the size and shape. When zoomed out, the circle adjusters are a good size, but when zoomed in, they’re way too big. They should be a consistent size depending on the zoom, so that when you zoom in, they shrink to be easier to see what’s under the borders.

Make tape feature accessible across all versions
Make tape feature available across all versions, considering this app is primarily used by students who utilize active recall, and several users have already paid a one-time purchase fee for earlier versions. Yearly subscription is subpar compared to competing developers who either require a one-time purchase fee with numerous features that are not available on Goodnotes or offer these same features at reduced pricing. Greed gets you nowhere but forgotten.

AI powered Autocomplete
Similar to math ai, auto-complete or suggest answers using handwritten notes as the experience.
For Example if I write
Valentines Date:then show a suggestion to fill in the date. or show icon that can prompt the user to trigger ai. and provide suggested answers.If I wrote
github is athen it could provide a suggestion autocomplete similar to google search. It doesn't even have to always leverage heavy token based LLM.But it can provide better answers using llm, websearch and better understanding of content/ context window.
A second phases of this could be to replace content by…

Option for Static Text Editor Bar rather than Moving with Text Box
The text editor bar now moves with the text when you type with the new update. This is very distracting due to the constant shifting of the items on the bar while trying to type and blocks the other information on the page. PLEASE FIX URGENTLY.

Permanent tab bar
When I have a document open, the tab bar shows a tab for each open document. Also, the Home tab appears on the left in the tab bar. When I click on it, the tab bar with the open documents disappears. To get back to the open documents, I then have to open a document again.
It would be easier if in the Home view (a) the tab bar remained permanently at the top (so that the Home view is just another tab), or (b) there was a shortcut called “Open documents” on the left.

Proposal to Improve the Template Change Feature (+ Add “Replace Page” and “Replace File” Functions)
Proposal to Improve the Template Change Feature (+ Add “Replace Page” and “Replace File” Functions)
Currently, Goodnotes does not offer a feature that allows users to replace pages in the same way as a “Change PDF” function. While there is a template change feature, it is limited to Goodnotes’ built-in templates and note-style formats, and requires importing content into Goodnotes first.
In many cases, there are situations where a page needs to be replaced—for example, when a lecture material contains typos or when an updated version of the file is provided. Therefore, it would be highly useful to have a…

Add security to protect our documents against your AI
Your AI is very obviously scanning and learning from our documents, sketches, etc. This is a huge breach of trust.
One huge use of Goodnotes for me and I am sure many others is to have a place to sketch out ideas. I cannot continue to do this in the knowledge that you are very obviously scanning and training your AI off of our ideas.
Without that foundation of trust there is no way I would recommend this application to anybody anymore.
Please rethink your AI integration. Apply AI only with consent and respect that "no means no".

Add a way to close file navigator and return to document tabs
There are two view modes in Goodnotes:
- File navigation
- Documents tabs (the documents already open)
We can switch from 2 to 1.
But for some baffling reason there is no way to simply switch from 1 to 2. Instead there is only the contrived way of having to open any file in order to return to 2.
I do not know why Goodnote's UI/UX team has been thinking all these years that that be an okay solution. No other programme does this and it is counterintuitive.
Could you please add this? It's so easy to do. E.g. you could add…
