  1. I really often change strokes depending on the situation.
    I need more variation for these.

  2. Hover seems to break handwriting in Goodnotes with Apple Pencil. My handwriting looks noticeably worse with hover enabled, it's as if there are tails coming out of my handwriting even after the pencil has been lifted off the screen. Other apps seem to have overcome this problem. Please fix this as this is a dealbreaker for an otherwise solid app.

  3. Please add Greek language in the application! It will be very useful for the Greeks.

  4. On goodnotes 5 the space between the dots on dotted paper were smaller, on the new version the space is bigger. Please bring the smaller one back <3

  5. When you select text, either with your finger or your tablet pen, along with the options, like “define”, “highlight”, “strikethrough” you would also have “tape” which would put tape over all of your selected text.
    Example is shown below.

  6. GoodNotes is fantastic for handwritten notes, but it lacks deeper organizational tools like the page hierarchies available in OneNote.

    Adding features such as pages, subpages, and sections would significantly improve the ability to manage complex projects, studies, or work materials.
    This would not only enhance productivity but also allow users to navigate their notes with greater clarity, all while preserving the joy of handwriting.

    Implementing this would provide users with better control and structure, making GoodNotes an even more powerful tool for both personal and professional use.

  7. I use Goodnotes for studying. So I thought that making a sheet of a study planner would work well. I can see my schedule within Goodnotes at once. I think it would be beneficial, instead of carrying study planner books instead.(= carrying studying books makes my bag heavier and also makes less room in my backpack to put more books in.)

  8. When typing and reaching the end of a page, the text does not automatically continue onto a new page. It would be very helpful if the app automatically opened a new page when the bottom of the current page is reached, similar to other programs like Word or Pages.

  9. It used to work like this, but now it is not. When I present something in AirPlay and want to search something in the Goodnotes file manager, I would like to see that the file manager is hidden and not presented on the screen.

  11. I have Goodnotes 5 and I am happy with it. I don't need Goodnotes 6. As I have bought this from you, you weren't supposed to show me any add about your new product! Please stop annoyingly showing Goodnotes 6 upgrade notification & features. Or you should add an option to stop viewing it.

  12. The new post it feature is great but i would love to have the option of making them see-through. I think it would be really useful for studying so you can put it over an image to label it and then minimise it to review. Or just to add extra notes without disrupting what’s under or if you’re taking notes of an already typed PDF file where you can’t change the text underneath.

    1. 질문 : 안드로이드, 애플 간 동기화 기능은 언제쯤 가능 예정인가요?
    2. 기능 제안 : 불러오기 기능을 할 경우 새로운 파일로 굿노트 상에 업데이트 되는 것이 아니라, 앱스토어 앱 중 pdf expert 앱처럼 저장되어 있는 파일을 그대로 불러와서 그 파일 내에 필기가 되는 기능이 있었으면 좋겠습니다. 그럼 해당 파일도 다른 파일과 바로 연동하기 쉽습니다.

  13. I would like to have the ability to print out PDFs so I can place them directly next to a picture, text or another PDF on the Canva. I know that OneNote for example already offers this and I used it very frequently.

  14. Allow the color pallet to be dragged away from its location at the top of the page, allowing for users to have quicker access to different pen colors anywhere they want on the page instead of being limited to just the top.

  15. says: Would you please send this up as a feature request? I’m making bird ID cards for a trip to Hawaii. For the answer, I would like the common name, the Hawaiian name and the scientific name (those are traditionally indicated by different italicized fonts). This is much easier to use than Anki, but flash card formatting is a bit limited. Bullets would be nice too (make another card with important field marks list.

    I would LOVE if there was a way to add audio file, so that the bird makes its noise when you look at it. It seems…

  18. ファイルをpdfに書き起こす際にファイル名とpdfの名前が同じになるようにしてほしいです。今はpdfの名前が、pdfに書き起こす際にファイル名に関係なく数字やアルファベットのられつのようになってしまっています。

  19. In a document like 400 pages long, you will need to know where you are in the entire document, then Outline window is necessary. Currently the outline window is not linked to the main window, that means when you open 113 page in the main window, the outline window when opened shows first few pages(not linked to the main). You will need to scroll the outline window down to 113 pages, this is not helpful and kills the usefulness of outline window function. The paper based note has power of “at a glance” recognition/grasp of entire document size, PDF need…
