  2. Sometimes when I scroll through my pages, perhaps to search for one or take a quick look, the app jumps to a page selected earlier in the middle of writing. Sometimes it always jumps back to the first page and sometimes it happens only after scrolling many pages. This is the most annoying bug I've ever had and it drives me crazy. My classmates are effected by this bug too and we all use Goodnotes 5 on Ipad.

  4. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I would like to suggest adding a feature that displays the file path or folder location of a document when searching within the app.

    Currently, when I search for a document, I can see the title but not the folder it’s stored in. This becomes inconvenient when I have multiple documents with similar names across different folders. Being able to view the folder path directly in the search results would greatly improve file organization and navigation, especially for users who manage large numbers of documents.

    Thank you for considering this feature. I believe it would enhance the…

  5. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I’m writing to suggest a feature that I believe would greatly enhance the user experience within GoodNotes.

    It would be amazing if users could customize folder icons and covers in a way similar to how we can currently add custom paper templates or notebook covers. Specifically, I would love the ability to:
    • Import custom icons or images to use as folder icons.
    • Personalize folder covers with our own images or designs, making them visually distinct and tailored to individual preferences.
    • Choose from a wider range of default…

  7. When importing a PDF, when the window pops up that asks you if you want to import into the current document or make it a new document, you should be able to change the file name in that window when you switch from the default “import to current document” to “import as new document”. Currently, if you choose to import it as a new document, it won’t let you change the file name until after you import. Would be more streamlined to allow this at the import phase rather than after.

  10. Since the "Convert" feature was added to the Lasso tool in GoodNotes 5, the response time for the entire Lasso menu has become significantly slower, especially when a large amount of content is selected. I personally do not use the Convert feature, yet it affects overall performance. I would appreciate it if you could add an option to disable the Convert feature for users who don't need it.

  11. I love the new tape feature but I have A LOT of content that I need to tape over at a time! I would really love it if we had the option to make a box around what we want to tape and have the shape snap and fill in (like we have for the shape snap feature). My only other option currently is to make the pen as big as possible and color over an entire paragraph at once which has been very time consuming!

  13. Improve pencil drawing quality - currently too light to use and must be part of pen options rather than standalone as present.

  15. I have three requests.

    I would like to be able to sort folders and notebooks manually, instead of sorting by date, name, or type.

    Also, when I write slowly with a highlighter, the lines are automatically evened out.
    I would like to be able to turn that on and off in the settings.

    Also, when duplicating notes and combining them into one, I would like to be able to select and move them all at once, instead of moving them one at a time!

  16. In many exam settings, students are allowed to bring handwritten notes but not digitally written ones, even if created with a stylus on a tablet. To address this, I’m looking for a solution that makes digital notes look convincingly handwritten when printed.

    What I’m looking for:

    A pencil/brush tool with a slight grain, natural imperfections, and subtle color variation within a stroke — something that mimics real pencil or pen handwriting.

    Alternatively, a filter or export option that can be applied to a digital notebook (e.g., on an iPad) to make the final printout resemble authentic handwritten notes.

    The goal…

  20. It would be great if you could load templates and stickers purchased in the shop directly into the template option (not just one page but all items that were purchased). It would also be very useful for stickers if they would simply appear in the sticker menu.
