Folder Sharing
Feature Request: Shared Folder Collaboration with Real-Time Updates
Dear GoodNotes Team,
I am a teacher who relies on GoodNotes daily for lesson planning, organizing resources, and collaborating with colleagues. While I truly appreciate the powerful tools GoodNotes offers for handwriting and annotation with the Apple Pencil, there is one feature that would greatly improve collaboration for educators:
The ability to share entire folders with colleagues so that multiple users can:
Add new documents to a shared folder.
Write on and annotate shared documents using the Apple Pencil.
View and access changes in real time, including edits, new notes, or added files.
Currently, we can share individual documents, but the inability to collaborate across entire folders makes it difficult to manage shared lesson plans, student resources, and collaborative projects efficiently.
Providing folder-level sharing with real-time updates would make GoodNotes an indispensable tool for teams of teachers who need to work together seamlessly. This feature would allow us to better serve our students and streamline collaboration across classrooms.
Thank you for considering this request. Many educators would greatly benefit from these enhancements, and we would be excited to see GoodNotes continue leading the way in digital learning tools.
Sincerely,
Desperate Teacher

Even if we can make a collaboration of the file now, we can't share a joint production of folder. But what if there are a lot of files that we want to collaborate?
Would we share the file one by one?It is necessary for collaboration function in the folder to get rid of such troublesome work.

Share folders (like a cloud)

PDFs are really large when exported -> Takes some effort to reduce their size -

I would like to have the option to share a whole folder with team members. All of the members should have the possibility to work in all notes inside the folder and to add new notes to the folder.
Also I would like to get notifications when someone changed or added things inside the shared folder/note. So that I can directly jump in and see the changes. It feels quite cumbersome that someone has to contact me outside the system to tell me that he worked inside the notes/added notes etc. -

I’d be great if we could share some notes with other GoodNotes customers. I don’t mean real-time edition, I mean only sharing and sync the changes, like sharing a folder or a PDF on Dropbox or Google Drive, the same walkthrough. Thanks
