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 use for work. People sign off on my worksheets and I email them once completed. But because HIPAA I need to haven password protection. Currently need to transfer to two other apps to get it done right.

As we use the good notes to record something important or private, we should keep it safe for us.

Yes, this is really important to me and may lead me back to another app if I can't code things like my Password list and journals.

I agree. There are certain notebooks that I would like to be able to password protect. This would make a great app even greater.

Kids use my iPad, really need a password protect so files don't get deleted please! Fantastic app but just a password to enter the app would be so great.

This is a simple feature with makes sense. Though the document should then be encrypted with the option to encrypt the PDF as well.

This is critical if you want to get the buy in of the work place!
I just bought the app as I love its simplicity and ease of use in the UI and navigation, but have only just realized that I cannot use it for its intended use of work notes.
