  3. I really loved the text document because it was similar to typing on Microsoft Word and more versatile for me to arrange my study texts. Please bring it back. The box is just too small and inconvenient.

  4. I would love to see a fountain pen added to Goodnotes, similar to the one available in the default iOS Notes app. It has a unique, smooth writing feel that would make handwriting more natural and enjoyable. I think having this option would give users more variety in their writing styles.
    Please add a fountain pen similar to the one available in the default iOS Notes app!

  5. As a college student who uses audio recordings in lectures to ensure I can write exactly what the professor says, it is frustrating that I cannot scroll up while a live transcript is going. Each time I try to scroll up, it automatically pulls you back down to what is currently being transcribed. I would like to be able to scroll up, it keeps my place, and click a button when you want to resume current transcript.

  6. 파일을 읽어올 때 현재 위치로 읽어오도록 기능을 구현하거나, 읽어올 위치를 사전에 등록할 수 있게 해주세요. 이전 버전에 비슷한 기능이 있었는데, 새 버전에 구현이 안돼 있습니다. 현재는 문서를 하나 읽어올 때마다 상위 폴더에서 원하는 하위 폴더까지 찾아가야 하는 번거로움이 있습니다. 빨리 개선해 주세요.

  7. I would love to see a wider variety of folder emoji options in GoodNotes.

    Currently, the limited selection makes it harder to visually organize folders in a way that reflects different subjects, moods, or purposes. Many users rely on visual cues for quick navigation, and expanding the emoji library would greatly improve usability and personalization.

    For example, adding more categories such as symbols, Exclusive color for emojis, objects, or even allowing custom emoji (including iOS emojis) would make the experience much more intuitive and enjoyable.

    This small change could significantly enhance folder organization and overall user satisfaction.

    Thank you for…

  8. It will be a big help for us, engineers, to flip/mirror a certain drawn object selected using lasso tool. Its a good feature for us since we always draw symmetrical figures.

  9. The universal selection tool, or maybe it’s the quick selection idek, is a constant battle for me. Every time I tap somewhere else while I’m writing, it selects whatever I just clicked on, which also moves me from the pen tool to the lasso tool. Which I also do constantly even out of habit to deselect something. And most of the time, I’m writing on an image, so when that gets selected it makes all my handwriting go behind it.

    I’m glad we got the lock image tool, but why doesn’t that prevent the image from being selected in the…

  10. Subject: "Mirror Presenter Page" shows wrong area when Goodnotes is in Split View

    Hello Goodnotes team,

    I mirror my iPad to an Apple TV via AirPlay and use "Mirror Presenter Page". When Goodnotes runs in Split View, the Apple TV does not show the same area that I see in the Goodnotes window on my iPad. It behaves as if the Goodnotes window were not in Split View, so the page and zoom on the TV are cut off or shifted.

    According to your help article, this mode should show the current page and zoom and only hide the other…

  11. In Nursing school, we take a lot of notes. I'm sure other subjects else too. But I wish I didn't have to scroll through dozens of pages to find something. I wish I was able to add a little tab on the side, color code it and name it. I know you can "flag" It but it's not very helpful because I have to open the side and then try to find the one page I flagged.
    For example. If I download a book - I have to scroll through all the pages to look for the chapters. If the…

  13. When I enable Read-Only Mode, a small down-arrow button appears at the top-left corner of the page (as shown in the attached screenshot).
    I understand that this is a navigation/UI control, but while reading or revising my notes, this button becomes a visual distraction.

    More importantly, the button overlaps with the content of my notes. As a result, some parts of my notes underneath or near the button are partially hidden and are not clearly visible. This becomes particularly inconvenient when I am trying to read or revise the notes.

    Could you please consider adding an option in Settings to…

  15. Please enable continuous horizontal scrolling on par with the vertical scrolling that currently exists. This would allow for creating two page spreads in bullet journaling.

  16. Feature Idea: Quick Page Linking & Navigation

    I would love to see an easier way to link one page in a Goodnotes notebook to another page.

    Currently, if I want to link to a specific page—especially in a large notebook with hundreds of pages—it can be difficult and time-consuming to find the exact page I want.

    My idea: Add an additional drop-down menu or page-selection box when creating a link. Instead of having to scroll through hundreds of pages to find the destination page, the user could simply:

    1. Select “Link to Page.”
    2. Open a drop-down/search box.
    3. Type the page number,…

  18. Goodnotes AI – Get Answers Using External AI Provider APIs

    Goodnotes currently has its own AI model, but I was wondering if it would be possible to also receive answers using AI APIs from external providers instead of being limited to the Goodnotes AI model.

    I previously suggested something similar, but I found a better example that demonstrates what I mean.

    Goodnotes AI

    • Goodnotes AI is included depending on the user's Goodnotes subscription plan.
    • In addition to the Goodnotes model, users can also use models such as GPT, Gemini, Claude, and others.

  19. Love the new text doc feature, but it needs improvements.

    1. Option to hyperlink to Text Docs. Right now it is greyed out when trying to link to them. Very inconvenient. It should have the option to link to the entire document and also Headings/ Subheadings within it.

    2. Option to use drawing tools within the text doc.

    3. More exporting features. Especially exporting as word document or actual text document. This is super important when trying to share editable writing with someone who doesn't use goodnotes.

    4. WORD COUNT. Please, as a writer having a word count is super important. I would also…
