Text boxes cut off when switching the desktop app use; Feature Request – Auto-Expand Text Boxes in Desktop App
I’m a Pro user and have noticed that in the desktop app, text boxes often appear cut off until I click on each one. This can be quite time-consuming when reviewing notes with many text boxes.
I would love to see a feature that allows text boxes to automatically expand or fully display their content by default, without needing to click on each box individually.
This improvement would greatly enhance the user experience and help maintain note readability across devices.

Make updated tools optional
Allow us to use the old versions of tools, whether an option in settings or the tool itself. Tools like the line editing tool are now useless at smaller levels as the circle used to select the line can be massively larger than the line itself, making it impossible to actually see what you are doing, but in the past it used to scale with how zoomed in you were. Other tools like the shape tool also have been affected by this. I make many complex drawings and diagrams for physics and I can no longer do practically any of…

Magic Keyboard
Subject: Feedback on Text Tool Usability with Magic Keyboard (iPad)
Body:
Dear GoodNotes Team,
I am writing to share some feedback and suggestions based on my experience using GoodNotes on an iPad with a Magic Keyboard.
Difficulty Adding Text Over Images I frequently need to add text annotations on top of inserted images. However, even when I have disabled "Images" in the selection options, clicking or tapping on an image to add a text box often selects the image itself instead. This makes it difficult to type directly over images without unintended interruptions.
Unintuitive Text Box Anchoring When I click…

Vertical or Floating Toolbar Option
Hi, I would like to leave a suggestion that is very important to me. If possible, could you please add an option to move the Goodnotes toolbar? Currently, it is only available at the top in a horizontal layout, but it would be great to have the choice to position it vertically or even as a floating menu.
This feature would make it much easier to reach tools with the stylus, especially on large tablets where we often write in portrait mode (with the short side at the top and the long side on the side).
I hope you will…

Streamen einer Hälfte eines Splitscreens
Mit dem neuen Betriebssystem iPadOS 26 kann man nicht mehr, wie bisher, die linke Seite des Splitscreens (Goodnotes-Fenster) über den Beamer synchronisieren und auf der rechten Seite eine andere App als Goodnotes öffnen, die nicht gestreamt wird. Für Personen, die diese Funktion im alten Betriebssystem nutzen mussten, ist das sehr ärgerlich. Deshalb die Bitte an das Team von Goodnotes: Macht das wieder möglich!
Danke!1 vote -
Drop down arrow for color palette
Instead of having the colors set up like Option 1, where we have to scroll left and right to find our colors, can y’all make a feature like the example in Option 2? In this version, the color we’re using would be selected, and if we want to see all our colors or change the color, all we have to do is click the drop-down arrow and the rest of our colors will appear. That way, we can have as many color options as we want without having to scroll left and right to find them.

Can Not View Pages or Outlines
Need to fix the issue of not being able to view pages or outlines when using the window view while recording audio. This was not an issue in goodnotes 6 and is very annoying especially while working on notes in class. You have to switch to the sidebar view to be able to go back to see pages. Very inefficient!

Mark which pages have handwriting.
A new option has been added to mark pages in a document that contain handwriting, making them easier to find when reviewing notes.
This is a current feature of Notability.

Allow .apkg(anki) file for import in study set
Hey goodnotes
I have a problem that please make available .apkg format to import for study set(flashcards)
Because it is 2nd most priority of study that is active recall and
Majority of medical scholar student uses already formed anki(.apkg) flashcards
That is actual too much time taking and also anki community has already made cards of very vast range of subjects and also from many sources so it is more efficient and beneficial to direct import readymade flashcards
And also most of medical student using ipad
And anki for ipad is for 30$

Basic keyboard shortcuts for closing tabs, creating new files/folders, etc.
I would like to see some basic keyboard shortcuts implemented, examples are in the title. Most annoyingly Cmd + W doesn't close a tab but rather exits the document and leaves it open.
Below are some suggestions for shortcuts (shortcuts marked with '*' can be considered extra):
Window/Tab management:
- Cmd + W: closes the current tab
- *Cmd + Opt + W: closes all tabs
- Cmd + Shift + Esc: exits document view
- Cmd + Opt + Left/Right: Go to previous/next tabFile management:
- Cmd + Opt + N: Creates new File
- Cmd + Opt…1 voteAdminGoodnotes (Moderator, GoodNotes) responded

Full support for keyboard navigation using Tab and Shift+Tab on MacOS
I use keyboard shortcuts quite extensively and would like to see some better support on keyboard navigation, especially in the documents view. So opening, renaming, etc. files can be done without a mouse/trackpad. Maybe implement a toggle for this option, so regular users are not affected by default.

Easier Text Coloring in Txt-Doc.
In a Txt-Doc there should be more tools in the toolbar for important actions like setting the background color of selected Text to a color by just clicking on the color symbol.

margins
Please make the templates editable. For example I like a margin but I find it's too wide. I'd like the templates to be editable such that you can have a smaller or larger margin as needed.

Flashcard Improvement Suggestion
Enable the full toolbar on flashcards
Allow users to use the same tools as on regular pages: highlighting in color, underlining, bold text, and free writing/drawing. This would make it much easier to emphasize important content and quickly add notes or markings.Support combined text and images on a single flashcard
Make it possible to place both images and text together on one flashcard for better visual learning and more flexible study methods.Detect and indicate duplicate flashcards:
Show a clear warning or indicator when a flashcard is created twice, to avoid unnecessary duplicates and keep decks organized.

rotate and resize text with two fingers
When I am using the lasso tool I would like to rotate the handwritten text with my fingers or pencil and resize it as well but it seems very restricted at the moment. When I use two fingers it duplicates which there is no need for as there is a copy and paste function and the only way to rotate is the box icon which is very restricted and not free as in like free motion.

Import PDF as a study set
There are multiple ways of doing this:
(A) Chop each page in half: top half becomes the ‘image’ for question, bottom half becomes the ‘image’ for answer.
(B) Two pages per flashcard, one for question and one for answer (maybe do this if pdf is in landscape mode).This would be immensely helpful as currently you can only import text, which is an issue if your flash cards have diagrams or render LaTeX.

Converting Regular Documents into Text Documents
Request to Add a Feature for Converting Regular Documents into Text Documents
Currently, there is a feature that allows regular documents to be converted into whiteboard documents, but there is no option to convert them into text documents. I believe it would be very helpful to add a feature that allows regular documents to be converted directly into text documents.
For example, when working with scanned documents, some characters are not always correctly recognized by OCR. In such cases, it becomes difficult to search the content or effectively use AI features. If users could convert a regular document into a…

Request to Increase Page Limit When Converting Regular Documents to Whiteboard
Request to Increase Page Limit When Converting Regular Documents to Whiteboard
When converting a regular document to a whiteboard, the page limit is currently restricted to about 20–25 pages. However, these days many lecture materials exceed 100 pages, and in some cases—especially for law-related subjects—they can easily go beyond 300 pages. I strongly suggest increasing this page limit.
In addition, when a document is converted to a whiteboard, the content is currently transferred only as images. It would be much more useful if text recognition (OCR) were also applied during the conversion process, allowing the text to be selectable and…
