Export audio option
Now that audio recording is available, you also need to add functionality to allow the audio to be exported out of the note as a separate mp3. I use this function on another note-taking program so that I can have the audio transcribed. I can't use Good Notes for my job until this is possible, so I'm staying tuned to see if this is added in the future. Not sure if other people are this specific. Adding this and voting for all the suggestions that are close to this idea.

I can’t believe the request is from 2023… come on guys! This is standard in Notability… and most other apps in 2025

Use Case for Audio Export:
1. Transcription in Unsupported Languages:
• Currently, Good Nodes does not support transcription in all languages. I often record audio notes in a language not available for transcription within Good Nodes, and I’d like to send those audio clips to a third-party service or app that can handle that specific language.
2. Sharing Audio Excerpts Easily:
• When collaborating on projects or discussing ideas, I often want to share just the recorded audio (without text or other node content). This allows me to easily send a short note to someone via WhatsApp or iMessage without needing the entire node’s details.
3. Versatile Reuse of Audio Files:
• Audio files could be reused in presentations, included in podcasts, or archived in external storage solutions. By allowing direct export, we could seamlessly integrate Good Nodes audio in other workflows.Proposed Implementation Details:
• Add an Export Audio Only button or menu option within the node’s settings or context menu.
• Allow export in common formats (e.g., MP3, M4A, WAV) so that external transcription services and messaging apps can easily handle the file.
• (Optional) Provide basic audio trimming or labeling before export, so users can extract only the relevant clip.Thank you for considering this feature request. Being able to export audio-only files would improve flexibility, collaboration, and overall workflow for many users.

if this would be added, would it be added to goodnotes 5 (the version i have), or just to gooodnotes 6?

Exactly! I expected that the UI where you click the waveform icon to see all the audio recordings within your document is where you can swipe left and get a button to export and a button to delete the audio. Instead we only have a delete button, why!?!?
