  1. When I use keyboard typed-in mode, I found there is no way to adjust the fontsize because it's too small.

    But you can adjust the fontsize in iPad edition when you select the input words, it would pops out a toolbar

  3. The constant spell check nagging is going to drive me to remarkable. Spell check settings should be set at the user level not the notebook level. It especially should not be at the notebook level for each device.

  4. Hi Goodnotes Team,

    I’d like to request support for Wacom tablet integration in Goodnotes 6 on macOS — specifically for the Wacom Intuos Medium Bluetooth tablet. It would be incredibly helpful to have pen pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, and support for the ExpressKeys on macOS, similar to the seamless experience you’ve built for Apple Pencil on iPad.

    This would make the app significantly more usable for students, educators, and professionals who use drawing tablets for handwritten notes and diagrams on Mac.

    Thank you for considering this — I truly believe it would make Goodnotes even more powerful across platforms.

    Best…

  5. I am using goodnotes on mac with graphics tablet. It seems to me that adding hand tool would be really nice. It would let you scroll over your notes without touching mouse.
    P. S. Now I cant even use scrollbar, because it just doesn't appear after hovering your mouse

  8. Adding a dropdown menu for folders in the left toolbar, akin to Notability and OneNote's setup, would streamline navigation, especially for users juggling multiple categories of notes or documents

  9. Copy/Paste tool selection synchronization in split screen mode: when in split screen mode, using the copy/screenshot function tool in one document would automatically select the lasso tool in the other document, allowing easier copy and paste between split screens without having to select the lasso tool in both documents.

  10. When using the Zoom Window in addition the Auto Advance having the blue box on the left side of the screen is quite inefficient. I have been a long time of user (3 years+) and I have always thought that enabling the choice for the Blue Auto Advance Box to be either on the left or right would be HIGHLY useful!

  12. Currently, if I upload a PDF file that has links in it (for instance, the table of contents), when I press the link, it will automatically take me to the page I selected. However, there is no way for me to go back immediately to the previous page I was on; this is cumbersome, as I work with laws and often have to jump back and forth between addendums, and having to manually navigate back to the page (or try to remember what page number I was on) is less than ideal.

    Noteful has a system that works similar to…

  13. Many times I am comfortable in writing on squared paper template but when I have to print some particular notes on plain pages then I have to change template from squared paper to blank paper paper for each page which takes total of 4 steps. To do this for hundreds of pages is very difficult

  14. 定規のようにオンオフができる手書き用グリッド線の表示機能をリスエストします!

    ノートの作成時は罫線やドットを選択できますが、PDFや読み込んだ画像には選択できません。
    表示のオンオフが可能かつノート自体のテンプレートには干渉しないグリッド線があれば、書き込みがさらに快適になると思います。
    ご検討のほど、よろしくお願いいたします!

  15. I would love to be able to password protect folders that need to be kept private. I keep all my private information in folders so even if only the folders could be password or passcode protected it would be very helpful

  16. Why does the text box duplicate so easily. It’s aggravating. It should ONLY duplicate with a long press and then selecting the option.

    Every time I try to move these stupid boxes they duplicate. It’s wasted time.

  17. Hi team

    I use GoodNotes like a Trapper Keeper from the 80’s so I have a lot of notebooks with dividers.

    However, when I am looking at all my thumbnails (especially in Split View) they seem too small when i’m using my iPad Pro 11”. See the attachment.

    It would be really useful if there was a setting ora pinch to zoom feature so that the thumbnails could be made bigger.

    Thanks for considering this future feature.

  19. It would be great to have an option to convert typed text to handwritten notes in your writing style using AI. This could be available in the select bar above the text field when you press on it, with a button labeled Convert to Handwritten Notes.

  20. It would be great to have a feature where double-tapping on the pen thickness icon lets users seamlessly toggle between line styles, such as solid, dashed and dotted. Instead of having to open the context menu.
