Non-Deletable Handwriting
I need a feature in GoodNotes that allows certain handwritten text to remain undeletable, even when I use the page delete function.
When I solve the same workbook multiple times, I mark whether I got each question right or wrong. The problem is that when I use the page delete function to clear my messy work and keep only those markings, the previous right/wrong marks get deleted as well, which is inconvenient.

Add a Pin/Lock Option for the GoodNotes AI Floating Sidebar
Add a Pin/Lock Option for the GoodNotes AI Floating Sidebar
When the GoodNotes AI sidebar is set as a floating bar, I’d like to request an option to pin or lock it in place.
Currently, if I tap anywhere outside the chat—such as the page itself or another UI element—the AI chat UI disappears. This makes it difficult to read the answer I just received, or to quickly check the page while formulating a follow-up question. Often, the sidebar disappears before I can continue, which makes the purpose of the floating bar unclear.
It would be very helpful to have:

Passive and Selective Voice Recording
Add the option to have an active recording going on but not actively saving every bit of the recording. Only have the recording save when I click a specific button, and it will "catch" the last 1 minute of audio and record that on the page I'm currently on.
I often find myself in lectures wanting to catch the last 30 seconds to 1 minute of what my professor said, but it's too late; they've moved on, and I can't start recording now because I missed it in the first place.I got the idea from Steam gaming actually. Where…

Insert shapes into a sticky note
It would be great to be able to add shapes to a sticky note.

Auto-Capitalization BROKEN
This isn’t an idea, but a broken part of the app. Currently, when a text box is made and anything is handwritten into it, the text is not capitalized, even if there was no way to misinterpret the letter. For example, it is impossible to mix up an uppercase G with a lowercase g, yet anything typed with an uppercase G will be switched to lowercase, including the beginning of the sentence. Please fix this! It didn’t used to happen. I currently have to go into any text box I make and erase the first letter, pull up the keyboard,…

Add More Granular Range Options to Pen Sliders (Tip Sharpness ~ Pen Flatness)
Add More Granular Range Options to Pen Sliders (Tip Sharpness ~ Pen Flatness)
Currently, the pen settings provide only fixed percentage options for sliders such as:
Pen Tip Sharpness (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%)
Pressure Sensitivity (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%)
Pen Flatness (0%, 33%, 66%, 100%)
For example, pen tip sharpness can only be selected from preset values like 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100. However, I would like to set more precise values such as 65% or 80%.
This limitation is especially noticeable with pen flatness, where the selectable range jumps directly from 66% to 100%. I wish…

making new line with dotpoints
when I’m writing to convert to text, when tapping to make a new line when using dotpoints it converts to modern size 24 rather than remaining in the same font as i was previously using. this same issue does NOT occur when not using dotpoints. If this issue could be fixed i would love it

Drag and Drop from PDFs to notebook while removing background
While in split screen, it would be very useful if we were able to drag and drop images between windows as a PNG. For example, if I’m reading a neuroscience PDF textbook, i want to be able to click and hold a diagram, drag it to my notebook page, and drop it without the white background. Currently, you can only copy-paste screenshots. We should be able to remove the background. other apps can do this and I would rather it be in goodnotes.

Universal Object Menu / Quick Selection
Please make both of them optional.
I mainly use the lasso tool to move objects around and the "Universal Object Menu" that constantly pops up at random positions is so distracting. I keep hitting things I do not intend to while moving around objects.
Same goes for the Quick Selection. I regularly import screenshots or pictures with the intend of writing notes on them. I do not want them to be selected every time I accidentally tap on them while moving the view of my document. I was able to deactivate this feature before, why is this not possible anymore?

Small sticker option
When using stickers, I would like to make them small as they are then the right size if using them regularly, but the quality reduces so significantly this isn’t possible, and I have to resize them every time, which is time consuming, and the inconsistency in sizing is annoying. If there was a way to increase the quality it would be great.

Image lock failure
You completed the image lock. Yay!
Unfortunately once an image is locked, I cannot use the links programmed into the base document that are behind the image. Added links can be layered on top but the base document cannot be altered.1 vote -
page browsing by simple tapping instead of swiping
Swiping takes more time and effort for browsing through a document as compared to, e.g., tapping.
In many documents, I see an empty space to the left and right of the page. Couldn‘t this be used to allow tapping to effect immediate page browsing?

Goodnotes Page Separation
I love Goodnotes so much as a full time graduate student in chemistry. I can draw molecular structures, fill out pdf assignments with handwritten answers, and edit my work super easily.
I spend a lot of time uploading PDFs for homework assignments which allows me to write directly on them and export the pages into my grading platform. An idea that I have had (mostly for aesthetic purposes) is regarding the outline performance in a notebook; I add important pages to my outline, but its not necessarily a helpful tool until my notebook is over 50 pages or so. It…

New Document Import Screen
The new document import screen, such as when importing from safari, automatically pulls up the keyboard. It’s really annoying when you don’t need the keyboard to find the right folder.

Study Sets : Scratch sheet
When using a study set, you should be able to close and reopen scratch paper without saving it. For instance, if I want to use the same blank temporary paper for a different question, it will remain blank every time I reopen it, even if I save the file.

Vertical Auto Layout for PDF Import in Whiteboards
When importing a multi page PDF into a GoodNotes whiteboard, the pages are currently placed off to the right and arranged in a grid like layout. This forces users to manually reposition every page to create a readable top to bottom flow.
For large lecture PDFs or study materials, this manual reorganization is inefficient and time consuming.
A significant improvement would be an automatic vertical layout option where PDF pages are imported in a single straight column, stacked from top to bottom, similar to continuous scroll behavior. Ideally, this would be the default behavior, with an optional toggle to switch…

[New languages] Slovenian
Hello
We are using good notes in our company on IPAD machines. We only miss very important toll and this is ocr - handwriting recognition in language Slowenian (Contry in Europe - Slovenia). We miss this very much becouse we now implementig paperless work and if we dont have this language supported we have to switch to other program. We dont want this becouse goodnotes is great.
We dont need that the language of the program is in slovenian we need just the recognition language in slovenian.1 vote -
Diary function
Please refer to diary apps such as Day One.
・Since I use it for diary purposes, I would be happy if a notebook function specialized for diaries was added in the future. If a function like a map database is added, it would be great if there is a mechanism that can record location information.
・I want a function like an album by tagging notes and images.
・If there is a calendar function that can be checked back on a date basis, I think it will be very attractive as a diary.
・There are a ridiculous number of notebooks in…

study sets
Why can't I slide pages while using study sets? When I'm in reading or editing mode (rather than in learning or practicing mode), it's unable to swipe left to add new pages and to swipe right to check the previous one. That's never happened before and it's really frustrating. Hope to be solved asap.
