  1. Up until recently I was about to select my hand writing and shrink it down as small as possible. This feature was really helpful to add in small notes around my work. I have just gone to do this and realised that now you can’t shrink it beyond it’s original size, you can only make it bigger. Please can you bring back this feature, it was soooo useful!

  2. Many times we find ourselves asking: “Where did I write down that information?” or “Which notebooks contain notes on this topic?”
    A semantic index that analyzes the content of all notebooks would allow users to search across their entire library based on meaning and context—not just keywords or titles. This feature would be extremely helpful to locate related ideas, even when they are spread out across different notebooks and sessions.

  3. In a typical study routine, we watch lectures, take notes, attend classes, and often find that pieces of information from one source complement another. A diagram feature allowing us to create links between related topics would help us locate information more effectively—without needing to duplicate or copy notes between notebooks.

  4. When attending lectures, we often have both slides and personal notes. With AI integration, GoodNotes could automatically index titles to help us access topics more quickly. In the case of slides, this would be relatively simple, but for handwritten notes, it could detect titles based on pen stroke thickness, since we naturally tend to write headings with thicker lines.

  5. Please add scribble to erase and lasso to move as options to the pencil. For some reason the pencil seems to write more clearly than the fountain pen even with stroke stabilization, it’s just missing the scribble and lasso. Thanks.

  8. I want that when I insert images containing text, GoodNotes should be able to scan the text so that I can copy it and search the content more easily.

  9. The constant spell check nagging is going to drive me to remarkable. Spell check settings should be set at the user level not the notebook level. It especially should not be at the notebook level for each device.

  10. Hi Goodnotes Team,

    I’d like to request support for Wacom tablet integration in Goodnotes 6 on macOS — specifically for the Wacom Intuos Medium Bluetooth tablet. It would be incredibly helpful to have pen pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, and support for the ExpressKeys on macOS, similar to the seamless experience you’ve built for Apple Pencil on iPad.

    This would make the app significantly more usable for students, educators, and professionals who use drawing tablets for handwritten notes and diagrams on Mac.

    Thank you for considering this — I truly believe it would make Goodnotes even more powerful across platforms.

    Best…

  11. I am using goodnotes on mac with graphics tablet. It seems to me that adding hand tool would be really nice. It would let you scroll over your notes without touching mouse.
    P. S. Now I cant even use scrollbar, because it just doesn't appear after hovering your mouse

  12. I want the original document files on Google Drive to be accessible seamlessly from Windows and iOS. I don't want to use shared URLs or iCloud!

  15. 定規のようにオンオフができる手書き用グリッド線の表示機能をリスエストします!

    ノートの作成時は罫線やドットを選択できますが、PDFや読み込んだ画像には選択できません。
    表示のオンオフが可能かつノート自体のテンプレートには干渉しないグリッド線があれば、書き込みがさらに快適になると思います。
    ご検討のほど、よろしくお願いいたします!

  16. Make a sign here box that when applied to a template and I click it then it can bring up a window to sign on screen which is applied to the page. It would be helpful for business.

  17. I really enjoy using these flashcards for anatomy and the tape feature to cover diagrams. I wished I could send links to my friends so we can collaborate on flashcards like we can documents. We frequently are able to work on pre-labs together, but cant flash cards.

  20. Hello GoodNotes team,

    I’m running GoodNotes 6 on my iPad (latest version) and have purchased the “All Platforms – Yearly” subscription (renewal date: May 15, 2025) through my Google account. My Windows app correctly shows that I’m signed in with the same account and my subscription type.

    However, on the iPad under Settings ▶ Cloud & Backup, I only see the iCloud Sync toggle. I have:

    Disabled iCloud Sync

    Signed out and signed back in (using my Google account)

    Confirmed I’m on the latest GoodNotes 6 release

    …yet the GoodNotes Cloud option never appears. As a result, I cannot enable…
