Maiúsculas/ minúsculas
Ao utilizar a escrita para converter em texto, o app registrasse o tamanho da letra para diferenciar quando o utilizar deseja a letra maiúscula ou minúscula. Exemplo vou escrever uma palavra que desejo que todas as letras saiam maiúsculas, tenho que recorrer ao teclado, o mesmo se aplica quando desejo que só a inicial seja maiúscula.

Virtual shelf for binders and notebooks
Pls create visual ‘master 3ring binders’ that I can put on a ‘virtual bookshelf’ with custom labels on the spine. That I can drag left or right, top shelf or bottom shelf, Like in real life. I really need a ‘one screen bookshelf’. Or multiple bookshelves.
This visual organizes my thoughts so much more than swiping through notebook covers.

Avoid erasing subsequent contents when autofilling
When autofilling, GoodNote will erase the first word in the next line (specifically, the first word in a list on the following line). Please stop autofilling from eating contents on a different line.

Update the writing on the screen feature
I want to write on the screen and use it as Google Docs or Obsidian, Notion, etc. But it doesn't have any fonts and I want to take written notes on it because handwriting everything or using text boxes is tiring.

permanent inserted picture
Many times when inserting a picture I do it to write on it but I must be very careful because it tends to move with any finger resize or displacement. could you add an option to kind of make it permanent once I insert it.

code insert
Notion has a feature to insert code and choose which language you're using so that it automatically uses that language's formatting conventions. I am a computer science student who prefers taking most notes by hand which is why I don't typically use Notion, but Goodnotes makes it harder to insert code examples when I need them.

highlighter memorisation
I want to have a highlighter that blocks out whatever is highlighted when toggled on. Just like how you can block the words that are highlighted in red by green screen.
It will be useful when you are trying to remember keywords and equation.

Translate
Dear GoodNotes Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I’d like to suggest a feature that I believe would greatly enhance the user experience, especially for students and multilingual users.
Currently, the text selection menu includes useful options like “Copy,” “Highlight,” and “Comment.” It would be incredibly helpful to have a “Translate” option integrated directly into this menu. This would allow users to quickly understand unfamiliar terms or phrases without needing to switch between apps or use split-screen mode.
Such a feature would be especially valuable in academic and professional contexts, where users frequently engage with texts in multiple languages.
Thank you for continuously improving GoodNotes. It’s already a fantastic app, and this addition would make it even better.
Kind regards,

From Engineer’s Dream to Daily Frustration: What Happened to GoodNotes
I’ve been using GoodNotes for nearly five years, and this new update is by far the worst one I’ve ever experienced. It’s not just me — all of my fellow students are on the brink of a mental breakdown. Everything related to engineering drawings and technical plans used to work perfectly before. Now, it’s an absolute pain.
The “draw and hold” function is especially terrible. In the old version, you could draw a rectangular shape and edit it while still holding the pen. The resizing started from one corner of the shape, and you could make it bigger or smaller from that point. Now, when you draw a shape, it expands in all directions — it’s always too big, and you can’t make it smaller.
You also can’t extend a line anymore. If you try to draw a new line in addition to an old one, the new line doesn’t keep the same angle and is never aligned correctly.
If you activate shape filling with “draw and hold,” you can’t delete the filling. That’s really disappointing. I used to love this feature, but I can’t use it anymore because it fills areas even when you don’t want it to. Normally, you could just delete the filling and move on — but now, that doesn’t work.
Another big issue is with shape recognition. I draw a line, and GoodNotes turns it into an ellipse or some completely random shape.
And one more thing: if you want to write a quick note — in the old version, you just clicked the button and could immediately type with the keyboard on the whole page, like in a Word document. Now, you have to long-tap and select the function from a second menu. That’s three extra steps for something that used to take one. Why?
On top of that, you can’t rotate shapes anymore, and you can’t draw rectangular shapes unless they’re perfectly aligned with the page lines. That completely ruins flexibility for technical or engineering sketches.
This just goes on and on — it’s such a mess. I honestly don’t understand why they changed everything from a perfectly functional, engineering-friendly tool into this chaos. I’m so frustrated.

Pen settings
Please make the pen settings like tip sharpness, pressure, sensitivity, etc. Customised or tailored as per user choice.
Pen features in Freenotes app provide good handwriting and such should be incorporated in the Goodnotes app too for better user experience.
Please upgrade these features in the next update.

Word should attach to sticker
Words should be attached to stickers. I use Goodnotes mainly for studying readings, so I would highlight sentences and make some notes on stickers. However, when I move my stickers, the highlights and lines will move too! It really undermines the experience of using Goodnotes to study.

Font size adjustment function
Hi!
-I want the font size adjustment function to allow selecting the font size display position and entering the size you want to change instead of the slider which makes it very difficult to change
-Also, I keep changing the font size once but when I exit that area to create a new writing area, I have to drag the slider to adjust the font size again.

Total Time per Document & Overview Charts for All Notes
I'm genuinely impressed with the timer and stopwatch features. They've been instrumental in boosting my productivity and focus during study sessions by using time-based challenges.
However, to truly master my time management, I've identified a key missing piece: the ability to review my total time spent across all documents. This macro-level insight is crucial for making informed decisions about where to focus my efforts, allowing me to align my study time with my actual priorities.
An excellent example of this kind of analytics is found in Jibble. Integrating similar charts and graphs directly within Goodnotes—offering a visual breakdown of my study habits—would be an absolute game-changer. To my knowledge, this level of detailed time tracking analytics is currently absent in competing note-taking apps, positioning Goodnotes to become the undisputed leader in this space.
Thank you to the entire Goodnotes team for your continuous hard work and for building such a wonderful tool!

Added image text OCR functionality
If you import a document converted into PDF into GoodNote or add an image file as a GoodNote file document as an image file, all pages will be in images. At this time, the text file was converted into an image, so even if you want to select the text, the text will not be selected. Also, since the text is not selected, even if you ask GoodNote AI, the OCR function in the AI function does not seem to work well yet. I hope the OCR function is added when I import the PDF files I have imaged into GoodNote.

Keyboard Support for Math Equations
I'm genuinely surprised this feature hasn't been implemented yet—or perhaps I’ve missed something. As far as I can tell, there’s currently no way to input math equations directly using the keyboard. This is a significant limitation, especially for Mac users who don't have the option to handwrite equations.
It would be incredibly useful to have a way to insert math equations inline with text when typing, similar to how tools like Notion or Typora support LaTeX or KaTeX syntax—for example, by wrapping equations in $...$.
Given that Goodnotes already supports rendering math via handwriting recognition, the logic for equation parsing and rendering seems to be in place. It feels like this feature should be relatively straightforward to implement, and it would greatly enhance the experience for those who prefer or need to type their content.

Innovative Study Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Annotations (Killer Feature for Students)
Feature Suggestion for GoodNotes: Color-Based Review/Masking Mode
Subject: Innovative Study Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Annotations (Killer Feature for Students)
1. Background and User Need
I am a long-time user of iPhones and MacBooks, yet I prioritize using the Samsung Galaxy Tab because of its superior writing feel and the ability to instantly annotate PDFs. I am currently preparing for professional exams, which requires intensive review and memorization.To optimize my study routine, I use a physical method similar to a 'secret pen', where I hide the answers and solutions for efficient self-testing. Implementing this concept into GoodNotes would create a massive competitive advantage and drastically improve the learning efficiency for all students and test-takers.
- Proposed Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Ink I propose adding a 'Color-Based Masking/Review Toggle' feature to GoodNotes.
How it Works:
Setting: Introduce a dedicated setting (e.g., within the Pen Tool Palette or a separate menu) called 'Color Masking Mode'.
Toggle Action: The user selects specific pen colors (e.g., Red, Pink, Highlight Yellow) and designates them as 'Hidden' colors.
When the global 'Review Toggle' switch is activated (e.g., a simple button on the toolbar):
All annotations written in the designated 'Hidden' colors instantly disappear from the screen.
Toggling the switch again makes the hidden ink reappear immediately.
- Key Use Case (From a Test-Taker's Perspective) Preparation: Open a practice test PDF. Write the correct answers in Red and brief explanations in Pink.
Repeated Study: Activate the 'Review Toggle' to instantly make the Red and Pink ink disappear. This provides a clean, blank test paper for quick re-testing without the need to duplicate or erase the PDF.
Instant Check: After self-testing, toggle the switch off to re-display the Red answers and Pink explanations in 1 second, allowing for lightning-fast answer verification.
- Expected Benefits Maximized Learning Efficiency: Eliminates the need to duplicate $\text{PDF}$s or tediously erase and rewrite answers, saving significant study time.
Competitive Edge: This is a unique feature currently absent from major competitor note-taking apps. It would serve as a powerful 'Killer Feature' to attract the large and lucrative market of students and professional exam candidates to GoodNotes.
High User Satisfaction: This function addresses a core pain point for GoodNotes' primary user base, ensuring high practical utility and satisfaction.
This function has the potential to revolutionize digital note-taking for academic and professional preparation. Thank you for your time and consideration.
