Implement a splitscreen option.
The splitscreens option allows the user to see two pages of one document at once. With this option the user can open an informative pdf on the one side while taking notes on a different sheet on the other side.

We’re excited to announce that we have completed this feature. It is now available in the update GoodNotes 5.3 for iPadOS (13.1).
With the update, we added full support for iPadOS’ multiple windows. It lets you do much more than viewing two documents side by side. To read everything you need to know about opening multiple documents, please visit goodnotes.com/ipad-os.
How to open a new window:
You can now open GoodNotes in multiple windows to view two documents side by side, view two pages of the same document in Split View, or pair it with other apps in spaces across your entire system. To open a new window, drag any of the elements listed below to the side of your screen:
- the app icon from the dock
- documents from the library
- folders from the library
- individual pages from the document thumbnail view
- tabs from the tab-bar
You can also use the buttons in the library action menu or from the tab-bar to open a new window.

Dear GoodnotesTeam!
Isn‘t there an API from the Apple Notes-App you may can utilize for that? -

I would love this so that I can take notes in a separate notebook from my annotated lecture notes. My lecturers send us slide before the lecture, and I write on these during the lecture. I would then like to create a new notebook to write my final notes and organize them. Having a split view of the two notebooks would allow me to do so.

this could be nice especially if there was integration with the MacOS app and in conjunction with the DUET app.

It would be really great to be able to at least views different pages of the same note at the same time.

This is so natural for any note book to be able to see left side of page when writing on right. Having a prior page open is must feature when writing notes for sake of continuity

Oh for god’s sake...YES, please! This is so anoying. I’m writing and then things start disappearing because someone thought it was a good idea to lock the undo button right under your palm.

I would like this too! It would be really nice to be able to read and highlight a document and take notes in a separate notebook simultaneously.

Yes, it is a much needed feature. I missed right away after installing GoodNotes on my Mac.

I do this with my iPad Pro by opening the book in a PDF reader and multitasking.

Two pages side by side would be so useful, as I need to take notes on the left page while referencing the right.
