1. Slide Notes

   When uploading a powerpoint or PDF slides to goodnotes, it would be really nice if there was the option to make them slide notes. For example: there would be 3 slides per page on the left side then on the right side there would be empty lines to take notes on. Microsoft Powerpoint offers this as an option when printing slides. I believe this would be a great addition for students since most instructors teach off of slides, this way students can add notes without cluttering the slide or having to rewrite everything.

2. Reminders. Very specific

   Hi, I would love to see this update soon. No one is doing it and I think it would set you apart from the rest.

   We all use reminders every day for certain tasks, emails and or events. This is so common. But, when I am writing notes using my iPad I may have something in particular I'd like to come back too. How ever having to find it again, or create an anchor or something is a bit difficult at times to do on the fly.

   So, what would be awesome is this. Perhaps the lasso tool has an additional option to get a reminder about the selected segment in the notes. This reminder is a universal pop up, or email reminder perhaps.
   I can't tell you how many times I am taking notes during a conference call where I need to bring my attention back to a particular note.

   I am telling you that if you came up with this option, it would set you apart. Notes are one thing, but notes with reminders are a whole new dimension.

3. Don’t disable speech for selected text.

   I have a cognitive deficit and having the iPad read a PDF to me is key to allowing me to highlight and annotate. I can write all day long but can’t read large blocks of text. Hearing the text read while following along works best for me.

4. Shape stencil

   I think it would be nice to be able to add shapes. Especially being a college student, it’s hard to make the shapes all perfect especially with classes like organic. Or even a special area that is dedicated to various organic chemistry/math/science features (ie cyclohexane, benzene ring, wedges, dashes)

5. make the app available on other devices.

   I am getting a touchscreen Chromebook but since this app isn't available on the Chrome Web Store, I won't be able to use it. Having Goodnotes on my other devices would be extremely helpful because I take my laptop to school and use it for all of my assignments.

7. European cloud services

   Please add the possibility to synchronize the documents also with other clouds. In Europe we are forced to store our data on European Servers. So please add some European cloud services. My personal wish would be the MagentaCloud from Deutsche Telekom.
   Another nice Feature would be the synchronisation with private cloud services, e.g. the clouds of the universities.

8. Point to point line drawing mode

   I would like to be able to draw a series of precise, connected, straight lines segments by tapping a start point then having each subsequent tap define the end point of the next segment.

   It would also be nice to have an option to make the end points snap to a grid.

9. Single finger swipe feature is great, please add same functionality with eraser and lasso tools

   I love the new single finger swipe feature with Apple Pencil. It would be much improved if you could add the same functionality/behavior with eraser and lasso tools. With eraser or lasso tool selected, single finger swipe actually erases/selects instead of scrolling to new page. I am accustomed to using the Apple Pencil to erase or select with the lasso tool, and it would be more intuitive to allow the same single finger swipe behavior just as it does with pen/highlighter tool selected.

10. Ability to view PDF annotations from other PDF software when imported into GoodNotes

    Sometimes you highlight or add comments to a PDF using Preview or Adobe Reader on a computer. You then want to use GoodNotes to take additional notes; however, the previous annotations do not appear. This would be extremely helpful when taking notes.

11. Copy & Paste with Format

    I would like to suggest adding a “Copy Format / Paste Format” feature to GoodNotes.

    Currently, when adjusting text styles (font, size, color, spacing, etc.), users must manually change each element individually. A format copying tool—similar to the “Format Painter” in apps like Microsoft Word—would greatly improve efficiency and workflow.

    With this feature, users could:
    • Copy font style, size, and color
    • Copy text box formatting
    • Apply consistent formatting across multiple sections quickly
    • Maintain clean and uniform note layouts

    This would be especially helpful for students and professionals who rely on structured and visually consistent notes.

    Thank you for considering this feature.

13. Let us record normally without requiring “record and summarize”

    Can’t figure out a way to record without the dumb AI features. Unknowingly used all my credits in the span of an hour because I couldn’t just record audio and it forced me to do the ai summarize too. So annoying

    Fix Goodnotes Storage Management – This Is a Technical Disaster

    Goodnotes’ storage architecture is fundamentally broken. My actual library size is ~6 GB, yet the app is bloated to 27 GB on-device. This clearly indicates severe issues with cache invalidation, temporary file persistence, and orphaned/ghost data retention.

    Instead of performing routine garbage collection and data compaction, Goodnotes seems to endlessly accumulate redundant assets (thumbnails, partial syncs, stale caches). This is textbook storage leakage — exactly what happens when an app doesn’t properly implement lifecycle management for its local data.

    For an app marketed as a professional-grade productivity tool, this level of inefficiency is unacceptable. Users shouldn’t be forced into a delete-and-reinstall cycle just to reclaim wasted storage. Implement proper cache eviction policies, file system hygiene, and background storage optimization. Until then, Goodnotes is less of a note-taking tool and more of a storage black hole.

15. Chinese Support in Audio Transcription Feature

    I recently learned about your experimental Audio Transcription feature, and I think it is an excellent tool for enhancing productivity and learning. However, I noticed that it currently does not support Chinese transcription. As a Chinese-speaking user, I believe adding Chinese support would significantly improve the accessibility and usability of this feature for a broader audience.

    For users like me, who frequently study in a multilingual environment, having Chinese transcription is essential. Many of my lectures, discussions, and study materials are conducted in Chinese, and the lack of this capability limits my ability to make full use of GoodNotes. Adding this feature would not only streamline my note-taking process but also help me retain and organize information more effectively, which is crucial for my studies.

    I believe that implementing Chinese support would be beneficial for countless users who rely on GoodNotes for academic and professional purposes. I sincerely hope that your team considers prioritizing this enhancement in future updates. Pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

    2. Mathematical Function Recognition and Analysis:

       • Function Recognition: The AI Assistant should be capable of recognizing and analyzing all types of mathematical functions (algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, etc.).
       • Solutions and Explanations: For each recognized function or equation, the AI Assistant should offer step-by-step solutions, including a detailed explanation of the solution process.

    3. Integration with Personal PDFs:

       • Function Recognition on PDFs: Users should be able to upload their own PDFs, and the AI Assistant should recognize and analyze all mathematical functions and equations contained within them.

    4. Implementation of MathNotes-like Features from the iPadOS 18 Notes App in GoodNotes:

       • Equation Solving: Equations with an equal sign should be automatically solved by the AI using the user’s handwriting when activated.

    5. Advanced Features:

       • Graphical Representations: Capability to create and analyze graphs directly in GoodNotes based on the entered functions.
       • Statistical Analysis: Support for statistical calculations and data analyses.

    Advantages:
    - Enhanced Learning Experience: Integrating an AI Math Assistant greatly facilitates the learning and understanding of mathematics.
    - Time Savings: Automatic error detection and correction save time and increase efficiency.
    - Interactive Learning: The interactive nature of the assistant makes learning more dynamic and engaging.

17. hot

    I'm a big user of goodnotes, I've been taking notes with him since 4 years ago, it's a very good software to use, as you know, apple recently released ipad air 6 (13inch), I bought him and upgraded goodnotes 6 on this new ipad.
    I realized that from my previous device using goodnotes 5 there was no heating condition.
    But after about 20 minutes of writing on top of the new ipad, my ipad has been heating up really bad.
    I had to stop and let the ipad cool down a bit before I could continue writing. I hope the techs can resolve this heating issue that may be due to compatibility!

18. Option to Apply AI-Enhanced Handwriting to Correctly Spelled Words

    I would like to request the addition of a feature in Goodnotes 6 that allows users to apply the AI-enhanced handwriting to correctly spelled words, not just the misspelled ones that are automatically corrected by the current "Spellcheck" function. The existing AI-powered writing aid significantly improves legibility while maintaining the writer's unique style, but currently activates only when a spelling mistake is made. Introducing an opt-in setting to extend this AI-enhancement to all handwritten words, regardless of their spelling accuracy, would offer users the benefit of consistently legible and polished notes, thereby enriching the overall Goodnotes 6 experience.
