Split screen on Android and Windows
Hello Goodnotes team,
I'm an Essential plan user on Goodnotes 6 for Android and I really appreciate your app. However, I would like to suggest adding a "split screen" feature to the Android app.
This feature would allow users to open and use two or more documents (from the same Goodnotes app) simultaneously on the same screen, which would greatly improve productivity, especially when taking notes and comparing documents.
Given that this feature of opening documents in a new window already exists on iPadOS, it would be fair to extend it to all users of the app.
Thank you in…

Remember the page where you left off
When I open a PDF document, I have to scroll back to the page where I left off. If it's a big document, like a book, I will hardly remember the page number. It would be nice if the app remembered the page where I left off.

Make the Android version equivalent to the IOS version of GoodNotes
The current Android versionof GoodNotes relies on Chrome for execution and presents recurring issues with PDF export, even for a simple notebooks. This dependency compromises stability and usability, creating a significant gap compared to the native IOS experience.
The proposal is to develop a truly native Android version, aligned withthe IOS app, eliminating browser dependency and ensuring reliable document export. This would improve performance, reduce errors and provide a consistent cross-platform experience, strengthening user trust and the app's reputation.117 votes -
Export to PDF using vector format
Currently, PDF exports on Windows and Android are rasterized rather than vector-based. As a result, when zooming in, especially on small text, the content becomes pixelated and difficult to read (see attached image).
Vector-based PDF exports would preserve quality at any zoom level, eliminating pixelation and significantly improving readability and usability.
Since the iPad version of GoodNotes already supports high-quality vector PDF exports, it would be greatly appreciated to have the same functionality on Windows and Android. This feature would bring platform parity and substantially enhance the app’s value for users on these platforms.

Hello,
Thank you so much for sharing your suggestions! Great news! Choosing a PDF format — editable or flattened — is currently in progress and will go live soon.
Coming soon to Android, Windows, and Web: when you export a PDF, you'll be able to choose between an editable file that keeps your notes and annotations open for further editing, or a flattened version that's locked in and ready to share — so your PDF arrives exactly the way you intended.
We'll keep you updated as things move forward, and we'd love to hear your thoughts or any additional feedback you'd like to share in the meantime.

drag images/text between pages!!
On Android, if you want to insert something between your handwritten notes — for example, to add a new paragraph or image you can’t select and drag your notes to the next page like you can on the iPad version. This makes rearranging or adding content in the middle of a page quite difficult. It would be great if the Android version supported the same smooth page movement and selection features as the iPad app.

Make the android version an own app and not running in web!
Hello there,
I am using an oneplus Pad 3 and I am having many difficulties using Goodnotes on it. I think I can speak for the most.
People want an good App, Not an Web Version/running in Chrome.
For example, pen vibrations dont Work for me(because its in the web). Also Double Tap gestures dont Work too.
Can you please implement an real App for Android or give Out the Code for the people/Open source it so we can make our own?
I wont really pay for the App as Long as it Doesnt have the Same Features as on…

Fix the lag on android please!!
What the title say. The user experience on android is very bad with horrible lag. It makes the app border line useless for writing, an activity which requires immediate feedback.
How you can release this as a product and have the gall to charge money for it is beyond me

Make the Android/Win/Web version faster
When I open Goodnotes it takes up to two minutes to load the page, open my folders and load the document. When switching between documents through the tabblad function it needs to load (it does not on the apple version). It's so annoying, that I stopped using Goodnotes for taking notes in classes, which is a shame since I do pay for this 'app' to actually work. As many others on this page have already told you, this problem would probably be solved if you make this an actual app instead of a webpage...

Please bring a full Windows app for Goodnotes!
I think I can speak for many Windows users when I say that a proper Goodnotes app for Windows would be one of the biggest improvements you could make.
A dedicated Windows app would have so many advantages. It would allow users to work offline, write more smoothly with a stylus, and avoid lag when handwriting, scrolling through pages, or navigating large notebooks. A native app could also make better use of the performance and hardware of Windows devices, which would make the overall experience much faster and more reliable.
Many students use Windows laptops and 2-in-1 devices for school,…

text size
with the new Essential update (on Windows) i've lost the abillity to quickly type notes in class because i have to reset the size of the text every time i open a new text box. It's also quite annoying it keeps jumping to the lasso function after every text box i make.
I'd like to just keep being in the text function and have an overall font size for the entire document like i could before the update.
The rest of the updates are really good!

New Features
I love the writing experience on Goodnotes! However, as a Math student on Android, I’m disappointed that we lack the math converter and custom font support available on iOS. It also feels unfair that we don’t have a one-time payment option. Please bring feature parity to Android so all users can enjoy the same professional experience. Keep up the good work 🤩

Fix surface pen support
Up until this "overhaul update" the surface pen worked like it was supposed to. Using the pencil tip would use whatever tool you select and using the eraser side would temporary activate the eraser until you go back to using the pencil tip. Now when you use the eraser, it switches to the eraser tool but stays on it until you reselect the pen tool. This is extremely irritating and I do not want to have to switch platforms when it was literally just working a day ago.

Allow removing colors from the color picker grid.
I have added colors to my pen color grid, but unlike the toolbar colors I am unable to remove them, creating an ever growing mess of colors. Please I would like to remove them.
Also can we get an actual color picker/eye dropper tool?

Make the windows version a real programm. Its currently still a web-app which is kinda annoying considering its not that big of a deal to just make it a normal program.

Disappointed by the lack of features Ios have but Androids dont...
Hello Goodnotes Team,
I am writing to you because I truly love your app and want to support you, which is why I am happily paying for Goodnotes 6. I know you started on iOS, but it feels deeply frustrating that paying Android users receive a downgraded version with missing basic features—like font customization.
We shouldn't feel forced to buy an iPad just to get a standard tool like fonts. It honestly hurts to pay the same price but feel like a secondary priority. I love what you do, but please, treat the Android community with the same care as…

Text input with default color
It would be helpful to be able to choose a default color for text input so that we wouldn't have to change it after every entry. I have a student who uses Goodnotes on Windows 11, and this option isn't available, even though it exists on the iPad.
