  1. Do add other payment options. It is not possible for all students to have access to credit cards. Add options like UPI, Net banking, Auto payment enablement (Like the one Netflix uses) etc.

  2. The marketplace available in Goodnotes 6 doesn’t appear to be searchable, so instead of scrolling dozens of planners it would be good to search “travel” for example and find content that matches.

  5. I’ve been using Goodnotes for two years now for school and love the app, but there is no way I’m going to pay for an app. I’m gone already on just update it.

  6. nella modalità scrittura con tastiera, bisogna aggiungere la possibilità di aggiungere anche immagini, creando dei margini automatici che si spostano, e si modellano col testo circostante: bisogna renderla simile ad altre app competitor specializzate solo nella scrittura con tastiera come pages o word. al momento infatti goodnotes dal punto di vista della scrittura a mano libera/ con apple pencil a mio avviso è l'app migliore ma dal punto di vista della scrittura con tastiera c'è ancora strada da fare (al momento ci sono app dedicate: pages, word, ...) che fanno questo lavoro meglio.....

  7. GoodNotes 6 has an annoying quirk: I'll be writing along and suddenly a word will vanish as I write it. IT's not any one word, nor any combination of strokes in particular. I would call it intermittent, but it happens with aggravating regularity. It's only begun since upgrading to 6; I'm writing the same way I did in GoodNotes 5 and it never did this. Am I alone in experiencing this issue?

  12. It’d be really nice if we had the option to move one Audio clip from one journal to another, I know we can import an existing .Goodnotes file with audio into a journal, but it would be nice to be able to just move the audio itself, and none of the pages.

    or copy and move that audio file from one journal to another. Sometimes when learning complex processes that relate to each other but are in separate classes, it’s nice to have the audio clip that references from another subject next to the second subject in the same journal…

  14. I use many different types of devices such as Mac computer, Windows PC, iPad, Android. I know this seems weird but I do use them daily. And I need an app/program other than One Note from Microsoft. If my notes can be synchronized and loaded from all the different types of devices I would appreciate so much. Since there are not many that supports Mac/Windows/iOS/iPad OS/Android and you are one of the few, I really hope to see you supporting this feature. Thank you.

  15. When you circle an object with the pen and hold on the circle, the circle turns into a selection. You can then move the object around. Once you are done moving the selection disappears and you can automatically keep writing with the pen.

    I would prefer if the selection did not disappear after you are done moving the object. Because you often need to zoom out or in and let go of the selection in order to place it where you want to. Using the "Circle to Lasso" feature does not work well with that in mind. Thus it would…

  16. TLDR: I would like to have an"Included Folders/File Names" option so I can backup only a small selection of notes.

    I use Auto Backup to access notes from my computer (running Linux). I usually only want to automatically backup some folders and notes so I can reference them, e.g. via Google Drive link, in other note-taking apps, in my case Joplin.

    As of now, there is an Auto Backup option named "Excluded Folders/File Names". But using this is very tedious since I have add practically all my notes to the excluded list.

    @devs please consider adding this feature.

    @fellow_users please…

  17. We often use GoodNotes to add additional content to GeoPDFs (drawings). Unfortunately, when the PDFs are exported from GoodNotes, they lose the referencing. It would be a very useful feature if the already existing referencing in a GeoPDF would still be present after editing in GoodNotes and would remain in the file when exporting.

  18. A thing I'm missing is a faster way for shapes, like some other apps added a feature if you draw a (not so good) circle and you touch the screen with your non-writing hand while your Apple Pencil is not yet lifted, the software automatically detects a figure and makes the circle perfect. It's a faster way than the way it's now. (Like in Procreate)

  19. I know it’s a new feature, but I’d love to see a wishlist or save option for the shop. Also maybe a shop on the website or off of the app also. Ultimately some way to see and be able to compare certain items before you buy them based on what you are looking for

  20. The interactive comment annotation feature has recently been made available in GoodNotes. However, it is currently only possible to type comments with the keyboard. It would be nice to be given the possibility to add hand-written interactive comment annotations.
