Hello!

I love using GoodNotes, but there’s something that’s been bothering me. Could you please add a feature for two-page or multiple-page view? It’s such a basic and essential feature, yet this advanced app doesn’t have it! I know we can use Split View, but it’s not the same as having a dedicated two-page or multiple-page viewing feature. Please consider adding this in future updates.

Thank you!

please add the basic feature of viewing 2 pages a time on the screen side by side with vertical scrolling. this feature helps the reader get holistic view of the document easily.

i have attached screen recording for the same

It is literally so embarrassing for a company playing at note-taking monopoly to not have a feature as basic as two-page view.

I need to be able to see two pages at the same time. Not by opening in a new window because that’s just overly complicated for something that should be simple, i want to be able to see one page and then the next page side by side and when i scroll i want to see the next 2 pages side by side- the way you do when flipping pages in a book. This is a basic feature that Goodnotes needs to implement right away if they want to stay competitive with other note taking apps. See attached photo for example of what i mean, because this feature has been suggested for a while now and Goodnotes just doesnt seem to get it.

I’d like to be able to view multiple pages side by side, for example to compare 2 pages, or have refer back to one specific page while writing on a different one. I also wish that when zooming out i can position the page anywhere on my screen; right now its only in the center and when I’m taking notes on a video for example, it would be useful to still have the whole page available for writing instead of part of it behind the video.

Hello GoodNotes Team,

I use the GoodNotes app daily for studying and journaling, and I’d like to suggest a feature that could make the user experience even smoother.

Currently, to view two pages side-by-side, I need to enter split mode, which requires multiple steps: pressing the split mode button, selecting GoodNotes again, and reopening the file. While this works, it can be inconvenient, especially for frequent use.

I’d love to suggest a two-page view that automatically activates when the device is placed horizontally (landscape orientation) without needing additional steps or split mode. This adjustment would allow for a seamless experience and enhance productivity.

Thank you for considering this feature.

Best regards,

Absolutely - there needs to be a book view. Split screen is a clumsy work around for a fairly basic feature in a document viewing app.

Please include a feature where we can view two pages at once, resembling like a book. Thanks!

Can we please be able to have 2 pages side by side in landscape view.
On one side a text for example and on the other side : notes, drawings...etc the split screen feature makes the need of scrolling the 2 sides differently. Also if printed the pages face each other.
Very useful when we annotate a pdf document.
That feature exists for example on the app "Sriptation" that I often use.

Please make an option of having 2 pages view like a book. For example page 75 and page 76, or page 77 and page 78, just like a book view. And not a split view

you also need thumbs up/down button on official reply to see whether the reply was useful or not

cuz this solution is completely inadequate

Viewing two pages side by side is convenient for studying worksheets, as it feels like opening a book. Of course, you can use Split View or Stage Manager on an iPad to achieve a similar effect, but it would be great if GoodNotes had this feature built-in.

I want this function not only for windows, but also tablets.

Let us write, draw, etc.. over the page border when vertical scrolling. When in a pdf, the sum of the white space at the bottom and top of a page makes for very serviceable white space.

Add the ability to display 2 pages at once as if it were an open book.

It would be a massive advantage to read and annotate a 100+ page pdf, as information often continues from one page to the other and single page view is very limiting,

This is the only reason preventing me from using this otherwise great app.

please allow to view documents in 2 page view in landscape mode as it helps to build photographic memory making iPad and Goodnotes app a complete replacement to notebooks/ textbook

Yes! This would be so helpful, especially when taking notes on a pdf file. It would really help so much. Also, if you need to reference something while drawing, writing etc.

It's been over ten years (see link below)! It would be great to finally get this feature. Please

For everyone seeking for a solution, I found a trick how to go around the problem. :)

1. Open the pdf on Safari

2. Go to the sharing icon on the top right

3. Go to "Print"

4. Go to "Layout"

5. Go to "Pages per Sheet"

6. Select how many pages you want to see per sheet. In your case two.

7. Go to the sharing option again

8. Open document in GoodNotes.

Here is a also a screen recording on how to do it:

You can even merge several pdf as you wish through pdf online tools. :)

The suggestion to use two windows is such a joke that it's almost insulting. I want to be able to use the same toolbar on the same document and turn the pages with the same action. With such an otherwise wonderful app it's so strange that a basic feature is missing.
