Insert New Pens/Markers
Allow users to insert new brushes similar to the procreate app. That way we can completely customize our notebooks with calligraphy and other word art.

Why did I pay for this App when it doesnt even offer a single pencil like the free apple notes

Please add this it could really enhance our Goodnotes experience and I also think it would give a lot of new incentives for different use cases and people of various work backgrounds to switch to the app. Not only does it make writing on an iPad so much more paperlike but it'll also diversity the available customizability options and make traditional paper and pencil less sought after. This would definitely be a game changer.

I agree. Please add a pencil tool.

Personally I need bigger range for pen/highlighter/eraser thickness.
2ptt is really too little. Thank you -

If it’s possible you should add a pencil style pen in GoodNotes, Apple notes has it and it’s amazing. Here is an example of my notes from Apple files, they have the same set of pens that Apple notes have and I used the pencil feature.

Can we please, please get this added? I really love GoodNotes but, like many others, am struggling with the decision to stick with it because the graphite pencil in Apple Notes is just so much better looking/feeling than the pen tools in GoodNotes.

Also add adjustable tips/edges because I want straight edged highlights, not rounded

Marten commented
Yes that would make Goodnotes " draw-able" finally

Marta commented
look at my suggestion. I think it's good for all of us who use GoodNotes 5.

It would be hard since Procreate brushes are pixel-based, but some of the Procreate features (e.g., “StreamLine”) would be nice for existing pens in GoodNotes!

I bought GoodNotes and used it for a long time, but recently I started using Apple Notes and the Pencil tool and now I don't want to come back to GoodNotes and cannot bring myself to recommend it without the pencil tool, it's too important for me. Kinda regret paying for GoodNotes.

Adjust your hand position.
Adjust the Sensitivity. https://www.talktowendys.ltd/
Find a pen style that is close to your preferred writing utensil.
Play around with line thickness.
Try adding lines or grid lines while you write.
Try changing the position or angle of your iPad.
Zoom in! -

the appearance options of the available pen tools. The fact I have a greater texture variety available using just the standard notes tool doesn't really incentivize me to want to really do anything with goodnotes and it seems like it's fast falling behind other tools that are offering greater ability to customize the visual texture and simulated stationary. I really keep hoping each new update might see the release of a pencil.

Graphite pencils and a ruler are the two missing features of GoodNotes.
