Password protect
It would be great if you had an option to password protect a selected notebook in case you have to create one that would contain sensitive information.

Introducing Password Protection for your documents
To lock a document, tap on the context menu for the document in the library view and set a password. Anytime you try to open, export, duplicate, or delete the document, Goodnotes will ask you for the set password. If you’re using a device that supports FaceID or TouchID, you can use these instead of your password to unlock a document. Please note that you can have only one password that will apply to all locked notebooks and that Password Protection is only available in Goodnotes 6. Learn more
Update to version 6.4.2 in App Store to use Password Protection.

I often use goodnotes for work, and some files are confidential. So I really need a option to lock some files and folders with a password.
I hope you can update update goodnotes with this function, just like what notability and UPAD had.

Really needs attention now (developers PLEASE do your job and take note the amount of people who have suggested the idea...consider goodnotes as ongoing alpha testing ;) )
I use the app with my jot script and it's perfect for my style of writing, proper posture and addition for left handed pros like us! I use goodnotes as my daily journal/diary, so you can see the need for a passcode (at least) for the sake of privacy.
It really is a no-brainer..

The function of secret folder with password which could protects user's private notes.
Not for all app, user could set the folders as secret folders or not separately.

Password protection is one of the top requested suggestions in this and the previous version and yet it's not even in the planning stage when other less voted suggestion are. It appears you don't care what your paying customers what to see the most or you would be making improvements based on the highest voted suggestion first. Do you have any plans at all to add password protection?

I use GoodNotes in my classroom and love it! However, I have 100 student that have to share 25 iPads. Middle schoolers greatly enjoy sabotaging each other's work. I'd greatly appreciate a password feature for each notebook...possibly with an override feature. Too much to ask? Not for the geniuses behind this awesome app! ;)

It would be kind if you could lock a single notebook or category with a short numeral password.
This could be usefull in order to defend delicate notes.Bye Bye

This is ESSENTIAL if you expect this to be used widely in the work environment. Please add this simple update to v.3 and v.4.
