Enable to create links between pages
As the contents in the notebook keeps increasing over a period of time, I would like to have a link or connector to a previous page or a different book within the app to quickly navigate to the desired content instead if flipping through the pages.

Just started using GoodNotes... this is the first issue I've come up against that makes me wonder about investing more time in learning Goodnotes or whether I should keep looking....As others have said, this would be a game-changer.

Nothing from the developers despite thousands of requests, especially if you add together all the similar but slightly differently worded requests. Call me cynical, but are the developers holding back so that they can add an “upgrade” at a price? Or are they waiting to see how many users defect to another app which has the feature? Basic marketing practice but rather devious. Come on GoodNotes, at least respect your loyal users enough to make a comment even if it is “No chance” or “We can’t make it work after nearly ten years of requests”. Communication is also good basic marketing practice. Let’s all list the alternative apps (some free) that have had this basic feature for years. Notability, Flexcil, Apple Notes, over to you…

Any update on this from GoodNotes? Are they working or considering it?

Flexcil has this ability. It allows linking specific parts of a doc to another one.

It would be great to have the ability to create hyperlinks to other pages within the notebook. I hate having to use other apps to create a notebook with hyperlinks.

This would be a hugely helpful feature for me. I use goodNotes both for work and for fun. The ability to click on a hyper-linked note and have it immediately open the page and/or scroll to the relevant linked note without scrolling or searching would really be a game changer on multiple levels. Please do this!

Me, too, I would love to jump from one page to another page in a Goodnotes-document by a link and even from a note to another page or another note!

This would be a very welcome addition. Great request!

Am here to add my voice to this idea

C'mon... I'm sure this has some major implications on core elements or you would have already done it... but this would be a gamechanger for users.

Pleeaaasse 🥺 I’d love to link handwritten text to other GoodNotes documents and to specific pages, maybe even words or areas which will be highlighted like when using search 😍 this way I could for example link words to custom explanations, like for language learning 🥳

I am using goodnotes now for quite some time on my iPad for creating meeting notes, prepare talks and sketchnotes from conference talks. It is working out very well so far. What I am missing out is the ability to connect information from different programs like goodnotes and text from [Drafts](https://getdrafts.com/) or [iThoughts](https://www.toketaware.com/ithoughts-new-home/) mindmaps.
The ability to create links between pages and into notebooks would vastly improve my workflow.
I am using application uri schema like evernote://, https:// or e.g. drafts5://open?uuid=DE863D20-88AD-46F2-B988-8C327DE7335F to link different resources from different applications. Especially the support of the program [hook](https://hookproductivity.com/) would be an amazing time saver while connecting my research papers, ideas and notes in goodnotes. For me this approach is working well on iOS and macOS.Please consider the integration. To do so I have added a few links from the Hook website to start with.

Just realised this idea was posted in 2018, yet 3 years have past and this function is still not updated in the latest version.. we can only use the hyperlink function with imported PDFs which is very inconvenient as we still need to create a PDF document on laptop first, it would be great if we could just create the hyperlinks in goodnotes itself

Adding on to this, there should be a link tree that has connections to other documents based on the word or topic. Users should be allowed to choose which links can be created or not. Check out Obsidian's note-taking software where people can link and make connections with their notes.

Yes please add the ability to add hyperlinks to other pages, folders, different notebooks, etc.
As someone with ADHD it would be EXTREMELY helpful for keeping track of the growing number of notebooks and pages!
Without this feature it makes it hard to want to continuously use the app because it isn’t as organized as I need it to be. -

I am a dyslexic college student and I use goodnotes for everything in all of my classes! It is very helpful. I believe this feature really needs to be added though because so many of the things I am learning are online in various places (especially not that most classes are being fully taught online. it would also be helpful to have the ability to link to other pages to connect key words to a vocab list, etc.

I'd love to link a note to a page or a section of another page. Even small placable hyperlinks would suffice. GoodNotes would replace a bunch of other programs in my life in that case.

This absolutely needs to be added. It is a fantastic idea and would make Goodnotes a much more effective learning tool.
