Keyboard typing synchronization during audio recording playback
English: Hello! I would love to suggest a feature improvement based on an issue I've run into. When I used my Apple Pencil to take notes while recording audio, I loved how the playback showed my handwriting stroke by stroke in sync with the audio. Since I switched to typing with my keyboard a few months ago, I noticed it only displays the entire paragraph at once once you finish typing. It would be amazing if the keyboard typing could also sync up and display word-by-word or letter-by-letter in real time during audio playback, just like the Apple Pencil.

Change Record back to how it looked in Goodnotes 6
The floating record numbers are extremely distracting and take up valuable space. Please revert it back to how it looked in Goodnotes 6 - a small unobtrusive icon on the toolbar.

[GIPHY] Ability to crop GIFs inserted
Now, Goodnotes allows to insert GIFs natively from the stickers tool, powered by GIPHY, but i would like to have the ability to crop them, some times there are GIFs that i only want part of it to adjust around my text or to shape them a bit... it would be nice to have the option just like we have with other selections

Permanent tab bar
When I have a document open, the tab bar shows a tab for each open document. Also, the Home tab appears on the left in the tab bar. When I click on it, the tab bar with the open documents disappears. To get back to the open documents, I then have to open a document again.
It would be easier if in the Home view (a) the tab bar remained permanently at the top (so that the Home view is just another tab), or (b) there was a shortcut called “Open documents” on the left.

[AI Connectivity] External AI Use MCP or API
Would it be possible to allow students to use their own personal AI subscription in GoodNotes? While you have a decent and well-integrated system going right now, myself and many others would benefit from a quick and easy way of giving an external AI like Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini the context of the documents in GoodNotes. I'm not saying to ditch your own AI, I'm just asking to see if you can give Agents context through MCP or API or something.

- Tap anywhere on screen and the elements dropdown shows
- tap on an element to paste it onto the page in the location that was originally tapped
- if more elements are needed, continue to tap in screen where you would like the element then select the element from the dropdown.2 votes -
Where is my "copy" option when using the lasso tool?
Oh... that's where the copy tool is! Buried behind the ( . . . ) menu, so now in layer two of the context menu when I have circled content I want to copy and move.
Why?
And I do realize there is a Duplicate option but I don't want to drag my content around behind me, I want to have the copied content ready to be pasted multiple times over without it visibly overlaying other content which Duplicate does.
But maybe I am just super old fashioned and want to copy and paste content all the time and therefore…

Make it quicker again
Goodnotes has become more cumbersome and slower with the latest update. I now need two clicks to switch between pens and the laser pointer. When I have images, there is now always a white border at the top of the projection, and I first have to switch to read-only mode to display the image in full screen.
The fold-out toolbox also takes up space on the screen.
Adding to favorites also requires one more click.
The updates have only increased the amount of work involved and represent a deterioration. On the other hand, I don't need AI or sound recordings.…14 votes -

Crop selection
Where is my crop selection. It used to be right there on the first selection menu. In the picture mode why would I need to paste and match style? I’ve selected a picture, why would I need to paste?

Revert shape tool to Goodnotes 6 Version
Ever since the new update to Goodnotes 7, the shape tool is a lot less flexible and very strict and jerky when drawing shapes, and is very frustrating to work with. The previous version was much more user friendly and I have no idea why anyone thought messing with something that was working just fine was a good idea. Please change it back to the previous version or at least provide a toggle so we can choose which version we want to use instead of forcing this downgrade on everyone. Thanks!

Add Opacity Control to Pen Tools
I would like to suggest adding an opacity control (0–100%) to pen tools such as the fountain pen, ballpoint pen, brush pen, pencil, highlighter, and tape pen.
This feature would allow for greater flexibility and precision in note-taking, highlighting, and creative work.

[Audio Recording] Fix issue where audio stops or disappears in split-screen mode
When using GoodNotes in split-screen mode, I record audio on one side so I can listen to it later, while studying for a test on the other side. However, if I close the screen I’m studying on, the recording disappears. The same thing happens when I try to open a different document on the study side — the recording stops and disappears.
This feature worked fine before the update and also in GoodNotes 5, so I really want this issue fixed immediately. It’s seriously affecting my test preparation, and I’m having a lot of trouble because of it. Please fix…

Elevating Goodnotes to the Big Screen: Proposal for Interactive Smartboard Optimization (Senses, ViewSonic)
Dear Goodnotes Product & Support Team,
First, thank you for continuously pushing the boundaries of digital note-taking. Goodnotes is undeniably the gold standard on personal devices, but there is a massive, untapped frontier waiting for you: Interactive Smartboards in Education and Enterprise.
Every day, thousands of educators, presenters, and teams use high-end interactive displays like Senses, ViewSonic ViewBoard, and SMART displays. However, the default whiteboard software on these panels pales in comparison to the fluid experience, organizational depth, and ink engine of Goodnotes.
Bringing an optimized "Goodnotes for Smartboards" edition (or dedicated display mode) to these platforms would completely revolutionize…

Support Right-to-Left Page Turning / Right-Bound Notebooks for Japanese Vertical Writing
I would like to request an option to reverse the page-turning direction of notebooks and PDF documents.
Currently, Goodnotes is primarily designed around left-bound documents, where pages progress from left to right. However, traditional Japanese documents that use vertical writing are generally right-bound, with pages progressing from right to left.
This is not limited to books, manga, or traditional publishing. It is also an important issue for professional users in the Japanese animation industry.
Japanese Animation Production Scripts
In Japanese anime production, scripts used for voice recording and audio production are traditionally formatted with vertical Japanese text and right-to-left page…

smart pen
I really enjoy using GoodNotes and I’m very happy with the app.
One feature I’d love to see is support for a smart pen made for GoodNotes, whether developed by your team or through a partnership.
Sometimes it’s easier to quickly write ideas on paper. If those handwritten notes could be transferred directly into GoodNotes while preserving the natural feel of handwriting, it would create a great bridge between analog and digital note-taking.

Custom Page Names Instead of Only Page Numbers
Custom Page Names Instead of Only Page Numbers
I would love to have the option to assign custom names to individual pages, instead of displaying only page numbers.
Currently, pages can only be identified by their numbers, which makes it difficult to quickly find specific notes in larger notebooks. It would be much more convenient if users could give each page a custom title, such as “Meeting Notes”, “Chapter 3”, “Ideas”, or “To-Do”.
This feature would make navigation much faster and improve organization, especially for notebooks with many pages. It could work similarly to naming tabs or sections, while still…
