    I’ve been using Goodnotes for two years now for school and love the app, but there is no way I’m going to pay for an app. I’m gone already on just update it.

  4. Fix word erasure issue

    GoodNotes 6 has an annoying quirk: I'll be writing along and suddenly a word will vanish as I write it. IT's not any one word, nor any combination of strokes in particular. I would call it intermittent, but it happens with aggravating regularity. It's only begun since upgrading to 6; I'm writing the same way I did in GoodNotes 5 and it never did this. Am I alone in experiencing this issue?

  5. Checklists and text formatting

    For handwritten notes, there's nothing better. But at the moment, the app is geared too heavily towards the iPad, rather than cross-platform.

    I picked up my phone to type a quite to-do list this morning, (to keep everything in one place, rather than using the Apple Notes app), and the text was tiny. Creating a bulleted list was more difficult than it should've been. There was no option to properly format a bullet point list/add indents. And no checklist feature, to add tickable to-dos when you're using a keyboard (rather than an Apple pencil).

    Cross-compatibility for this kind of thing…

  10. Can you support universal sync among different platforms and OS?

    I use many different types of devices such as Mac computer, Windows PC, iPad, Android. I know this seems weird but I do use them daily. And I need an app/program other than One Note from Microsoft. If my notes can be synchronized and loaded from all the different types of devices I would appreciate so much. Since there are not many that supports Mac/Windows/iOS/iPad OS/Android and you are one of the few, I really hope to see you supporting this feature. Thank you.

  12. Pen Gestures - Circle to Lasso

    When you circle an object with the pen and hold on the circle, the circle turns into a selection. You can then move the object around. Once you are done moving the selection disappears and you can automatically keep writing with the pen.

    I would prefer if the selection did not disappear after you are done moving the object. Because you often need to zoom out or in and let go of the selection in order to place it where you want to. Using the "Circle to Lasso" feature does not work well with that in mind. Thus it would…

  13. More customising of folders in Goodnotes 6

    Can we have even more colours for the folders, ie dark blue for instance. Can we also have more icons for the folders, suggestions such as a movie icon, different sports (balls etc), travel (i.e aeroplane, train, car, bicycle etc), domestic appliances, nature symbols (trees etc). Thanks.

  14. GeoPDF

    We often use GoodNotes to add additional content to GeoPDFs (drawings). Unfortunately, when the PDFs are exported from GoodNotes, they lose the referencing. It would be a very useful feature if the already existing referencing in a GeoPDF would still be present after editing in GoodNotes and would remain in the file when exporting.

  15. Quicker Shapes

    A thing I'm missing is a faster way for shapes, like some other apps added a feature if you draw a (not so good) circle and you touch the screen with your non-writing hand while your Apple Pencil is not yet lifted, the software automatically detects a figure and makes the circle perfect. It's a faster way than the way it's now. (Like in Procreate)

  17. Wishlist/Save and Search for Shop

    I know it’s a new feature, but I’d love to see a wishlist or save option for the shop. Also maybe a shop on the website or off of the app also. Ultimately some way to see and be able to compare certain items before you buy them based on what you are looking for

  18. Hand-written interactive comment annotations

    The interactive comment annotation feature has recently been made available in GoodNotes. However, it is currently only possible to type comments with the keyboard. It would be nice to be given the possibility to add hand-written interactive comment annotations.

  19. Please fix this problem

    When I write something on the picture I pasted, my palm always unintentionally touch the picture and the picture suddenly move. This happens in all devices. So it’s a system problem. Please fix this problem.

  20. About staedtler S pen

    Make a note using staedtler S-pen, turn the pen upside down, and use the eraser to move on to the eraser function. However, if you turn the pen upside down again and try to make a note, the eraser function will continue and you will have to press the pen function again every time.
