  3. I LOVE this app. I use it daily and for so many things! It’s versatile, convenient, affordable, all the good things. One problem: I did the one-time purchase in 2023. Now, in 2025, I’d love to switch to the annual subscription so that I can access it on my PC as my projects have expanded. And I can’t. I’d have to delete my account, lose all of my stuff, and then re-enroll. Or find a way to back up all of my stuff (as PDFs, losing hyperlinks and all of the Goodnotes-ey features on them), delete my account, and re-enroll.…

  5. Can you please allow the search function to work with notes written with the pencil tool? I see the search function works for the pen, but I prefer the feel of the pencil when taking notes. Thank you.

  6. change the blue color of the main board to different one (of your own choice).
    It is a small change, but it would make it more comfortable to look at

  7. I love Flashcards. They could be so much better adding more options to make them more custom

  8. Since there is an audio record feature, why not add transcription feature and AI-based auto notes generation. This way we do not need to pay for multiple apps and stick to our beloved Goodnotes for everything.

  11. Is it possible to expand the Goodnotes cloud service to all users?
    I read the page ( Goodnotes Cloud on IOS Pilot Program).On this page, the Cloud is only eligible for Yearly plan members...That is pretty sad 😢 What I am concerned about is I already paid for other cloud services. For iCloud,I won't pay a subscription.

    Meanwhile, I saw there may be invitations to upgrade iCloud to goodnotes cloud...hope that I am not misunderstanding, cause two statements are a bit contradict.

    If this advice will be accepted in the future, It is convenience. Thank you.

  12. マスキング機能を追加頂きありがとうございます。
    もっとも、1冊の参考書だけでも数百にのぼるマスキングを付すことになるため、都度都度マスキングの表示/非表示を手作業で行うのは現実的ではありません。ぜひ、「マスキングの一括表示/非表示」機能をつけて下さい!
    (競合のノートアプリ、prodraftsのマスキング機能の仕様が優秀です。)

  14. i use text boxes for my planner, because i don’t particularly like my handwriting. i use the scribble function with my apple pencil, but when it converts my writing to text, it automatically capitalizes the first letter. i have this feature turned off in my settings, and i wish it transferred over into the app. i just feel like it looks more natural that way!

  15. What I take notes for I would like to listen to the recording multiple times to learn. To have a loop feature would be great to be able to loop the whole recording to play over and over, or ideally to choose to loop the whole recording or each piece individually for notes with multiple recordings.

  16. I would love to have the ability to change the spacing of the grids for the 'Square Paper' template and also set a default grid spacing size for all the different paper options for both portrait and landscape just like Notability does. So it doesn't matter which paper size you choose to have if it is either A3, A4 or A5 etc, the gird spacing size will stay the same.

  17. I heard that GoodNotes 6 allows collaborative editing of PDFs. After sharing a single PDF with each other, is it possible for both parties to write on the PDF in real-time?

  18. Under the settings tab, add the ability to customize your initial screen.
    Examples:
    Open to a specific document upon start of app. That way if it a diary, journal, calendar, ect. It's ready to use right away.
    Allow different ways to view documents in the start-up tab. List of projects, small projects icons, large icons, view side by side, ect.
    Ability to lock documents and unlock with password, passcode, fingerprint, ect.

  19. I think an if there is an option where we can record and it automatically changes it to live transcript (like plaud app) would save us students a lot of time from making notes. And also if it had an option to make charts would be amazing!

  20. I have OCD, so the only thing I ask for is the possibility to justify the paragraph when we use the text styling boxes. Goodnotes gives us 3 posibilities, to align the paragraph to the left, to align the paragraph to the right, and to indent the paragraph, so WHY NOT TO JUSTIFY IT?? So simple, people! Goodness I’m about to cry.
