  1. Goodnotes offers a great digital note-taking experience, especially with the ability to annotate directly on books and documents. This feature is highly valuable for students and professionals who want to keep their study or work materials organized and accessible.

    However, there are some limitations that affect the overall usability. One significant drawback is that Goodnotes does not allow writing in a fully formatted document style like a traditional word processor. This makes it challenging to keep notes tidy, symmetrical, and well-formatted, which can be frustrating for users who prefer a more structured layout when organizing their notes.

  2. Can yall pretty please make a feature to where we can choose a default color for the text box that isn’t the black one. I hate having to change my text box to the color I want each time I make a new text box.

  3. At the moment, the interface feels noticeably static because most UI elements lack animations. This includes interactions such as opening menus, triggering pop‑ups, switching tools, or navigating between sections. The absence of motion feedback makes the app feel less polished and less responsive especially compared to the iPad and macOS versions.

    Introducing simple, consistent, and minimalistic animations across the UI would significantly improve the overall user experience. Even subtle transitions—such as smooth fades, slides, or scale effects—can make interactions feel more intuitive, modern, and cohesive. These animations don’t need to be complex; they just need to provide visual continuity and…

  4. Being able to open two windows (or more) from windows app would be great. I have to open in web mode if i wish to work on two notebooks at the same time.

  5. It would be really helpful to implement split screen/multiple good notes windows on windows/hp computers! This feature is available for IOS and would make note taking and the app much more helpful if this feature can be put in place.

  6. It now takes so much time for the app to start that I avoid using it. I tested it out and it took around 30 seconds to show my files or the last page opened. It does not seem a lot but during classes, presentations or explanations it can be very frustating

  7. 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 🤩

  8. A toggleable (on/off) grid would make writing on imported PDFs much easier.

    The Zoom Window helps only in small areas, and handwriting often becomes uneven when looking at the whole page.
    A page‑wide grid would keep both handwriting and shapes aligned.

    Additionally, a dot‑grid would be especially helpful because it guides writing without being too visible.

  9. I love the app but it would be much easier to study and do work for school if I was able to have multiple tabs open that I can switch between. My friends on iPads all can open multiple tabs and switch between them with ease and I have to close and open anew notebook every time i wanna compare something between lectures

  10. 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…

  13. It would be great if creating text boxes felt more flexible.
    For example, when holding a modifier key (such as Left Ctrl), it should be possible to draw a text box directly in any size by dragging.

    Additionally, if the text inside the box becomes too large to fit, the font size should automatically decrease so the text always stays within the fixed dimensions of the box.
    This would prevent the text box from resizing itself and keep the layout consistent.

  14. It would be great if entire folders could be pinned to the tab bar.
    This would allow quick access to frequently used collections of notebooks without having to open each document individually.

  15. It would be very helpful to rearrange the tabs of open notebooks via drag and drop.
    Right now, I sometimes open several notes in the wrong order and have to close and reopen them to get them sorted properly. Flexible tab ordering would remove this extra step and make working much easier.

  16. Estaria mas sencillo y tambien fluido poder mover la barra de herramienta de escritura a los lados de la pantalla (izquierda, derecha, abajo), tambien podrian agregar que para cambio de color sea presionando en un icono y despligue los colores que ya tienes en la barra de herramientas sin tener que abrir toda la barra, al igual que poder esconderlo para tener mayor visibilidad y espacio para escribir.

  17. I wish highlights would move with text when editing text in text box / main document as opposed to having to lasso the text section to keep the highlight with the text or having to delete the highlight, move the text and then highlight again. Makes my notes messy as I'm not able to edit my text as easily (keeping the highlight) as in apps like Word.

  18. When using a PC with a mouse and no touchscreen, navigating around a witheboard is difficult. I would suggest having a "hand" tool like you see in PDF readers and scrollbars like in Freeform.

  20. When I write, I use a lined template that helps me structure my text. However, when I want to print the document, I prefer to remove the template. Currently, I have to change it page by page, which is time-consuming. I would like a way to update the template for multiple pages at onc
