Thanks for the report and sorry to hear about the issue you’re experiencing. We’d love to help you with it but would need some more information. What is happening when you’re touch the homebar? Are you using an Apple Pencil? Perhaps the palm rejection is not working correctly in GoodNotes. Usually, the homebar should be ignored while writing. It would be fantastic if you could send us a video where we can have a closer look at the problem by opening a support ticket with us here: https://support.goodnotes.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

    I get that frequently as well and it's a bit frustrating. It happens when you first place your hand on the iPad to start writing and your palm sometimes lands on the home bar at the bottom and moves everything around.

    Apple said that developers can write some codes to hide the home bar.

    During writing, when my hand palm touchs the home bar, it makes the page moving right left right left......

    I want to disable the home bar to keep the page stably.

    I'll set an example in the files attached, I already tried automatic screen lock it does not change everything (I tried every setting ever and do not find the one)
