Upgrade GoodNotes 5
Hi!
I’m a student still using GoodNotes 5 and I really love it. ❤️
Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to upgrade to GoodNotes 6, so I kindly ask if you could add a few small updates to version 5 — like more pen settings or simple improvements. Nothing big, just small things to help students like me.
Thank you so much for your amazing app! 🙏✨3 votes -
Hint
I would love to see a hint option added to the study cards. I believe it would add to the effectiveness of the memorizing process for many of us. Sometimes I just need a word or two to get me pointed in the right direction.

Sticky Note templates
My idea would be to add sticky note templates, which are similar to normal page templates (ruled or squared for example). This would make it easier to use sticky notes in a wider range of use-cases. I for example use sticky notes for solving math questions without having to create a new page and stay on the same page. If there were an option to have squared sticky notes one could draw a diagram waaay easier or use a ruled template to write straighter.

In Goodnotes 5, I could disable image text selection in app setting, but this
In Goodnotes 5, I could disable image and text selection in app settings, but this feature is gone in Goodnotes 6. Was this international? It’s very inconvenient because objects are clicked by mistake while writing. Please bring back those toggle settings.

Turn off iPad screen when on Goodnotes
When I leave my iPad on Goodnotes it never closes by itself despite my iPad being on the 2 minute shut off time. On every other app it shuts down by itself but Goodnotes. Can we implement something that hinders this? It wastes a lot of battery

hoping for having a notebook of infinite canvases, so it’s easier to jump between canvases and that the organization is less disseminated compared to just folders, similar to onenote

[Keyboard] Restore Removed Text Formatting Hotkeys
There used to be loads of hotkeys that would make things so much quicker.
E.g.,
- Cmd + +/- when highlighting text would make it larger/smaller
- Cmd + \ would centre text ([ and ] to align left/right)Both of these hotkeys have been removed. Now, when i highlight text and use Cmd + -, it just zooms out. This paired with the terrible toolbar redesign (including the floating toolbar), everything takes so many clicks. These hotkeys have basically become muscle memory and they're slowly getting rid of all of them, won't be surprised if they decide to get…

Cross-Platform Sync (iOS to Web/Windows)
Dear Goodnotes Team,
I am a dedicated Goodnotes user and rely heavily on the app for exam preparation and daily study.
Cross-Platform Viewing
While I primarily use my iPad for handwriting notes, I often need to review materials on a Windows PC or in a web browser. The ability to seamlessly sync and view iOS Goodnotes content across platforms would be a game-changer.
Being able to reference notes on a larger monitor while typing or completing practice exams would significantly improve productivity for students and professionals alike.
Thank you for your continued work on such a valuable tool. I hope…

[Timer] Add -1 Minute Button to Timer
The timer features are so great, the small size, the set modes and the +1 min button are great.
It's quite hard to decrease the amount of time however.
A -1 min button would make it do everything I need it to do to quickly set timers for my classes.

Bring back the old pen
I really miss the consistent style of the pen before the most recent update, the new pen is thicker and thinner in different places and its honestly unusable for me. I also miss the feature that you guys had a little while ago with the magnified writing box, it really helped with writing long sentences and streamlining note taking :)

New Shape Tool: Ability to disable auto-connection of shapes
Please create the option to turn off auto connection of connector lines to pre-defined shapes drawn with the shape tool. I understand this was designed for diagramming but I am picky about my notes being neat, organized, and symmetrical so I really like using this tool to draw my own figures as well as perfect arrows/shapes. However, the auto connect makes it very frustrating and annoying to use because my lines are redirected to connect to nearby shapes and there is no way of detaching them to still draw the lines where I need them to go. They cannot even…

Request for restoration of the recording function
While attending class, I usually record the lecture and then study again at home by listening to the recording. However, after updating to version 7.0, the following inconveniences have arisen.
First, the recording bar takes up too much space on the screen. Before the update, it was fixed on the top bar, so it didn’t interfere with the slides. But now that it has changed into a bar form, it can’t be minimized, and it just floats around the screen, which is very inconvenient.
Second, every time I press the play button, a pop-up window appears on the left side,…

Recording
Would it be possible to move the recording thing back where it was with the other icons, it is hiding my courses and sometimes I touch it by mistake and stop recording my classes…

search option to select location
search option for selecting location! when moving a file-doc, I often will not know the location of the file or folder to which i want to move. it is too time-consuming to search by clicking on folders to find the location I’m looking for. it would be great if there was a search window within the select, a location window!

Dark Theme for Slide Show / Presentation Mode
I would love to see a dark theme option in Slide Show (Presentation Mode). Currently, presentations are displayed with a light background, which can be harsh on the eyes, especially in low-light environments such as lectures or bedside teaching.
Notability already offers a Dark Presentation Mode, and it’s extremely helpful for reducing eye strain and improving readability during night study sessions or when presenting in dim rooms.
Adding this feature in GoodNotes would:
Make presentations more comfortable on the eyes.
Improve usability for students, educators, and professionals who work at night.
Keep GoodNotes competitive with similar apps.
Suggested Implementation:

OCR for Inserted Images and Imported PDFs
It would be incredibly useful if Goodnotes could apply OCR to both inserted images and imported PDFs. This would allow users to search, highlight, and copy text from all types of study materials.

When using sticky notes, it is inconvenient that the user name is displayed automatically.
When using sticky notes, it is inconvenient that the user name is displayed automatically.
While showing names can be helpful during collaboration with two or more people on a shared document, it becomes distracting when the document is used individually. I often use sticky notes like Post-it notes for personal annotations and quick notes, and in this case, the automatic display of my name feels unnecessary and disruptive.
It would be very helpful to have an option to toggle the automatic display of names on or off, depending on whether the document is being used collaboratively or individually.

Add Auto-Snapback to Pen After Highlighting
Just how once you’re done erasing it goes right back to the pencil so I can write. I think this would also be useful if it did the same thing for highlighting. Every time I have to highlight and it doesn’t go back to the pencil I waste more time going back to erase what I highlighted on my page because i Though I was using the pen tool

[Audio Recording] Request to Enable Audio Playback Across Files and Improve Audio UI
1.As shown in IMG1457, when opening a file without an audio recording (on the right) alongside a file that has an audio recording (on the left), the audio cannot be played. However, as shown in IMG1458, if the opened file also contains an audio recording, the audio can be played normally.
- This creates a problem when taking notes or summarizing content. I would like to request that audio playback remain available regardless of whether the file opened side-by-side contains an audio recording or not.2.When playing audio, audio control panels appear on both sides of the screen,…
