Welcome to the Goodnotes idea-sharing space!

Tips to make your suggestion visible and bring your idea to life:

  • Search existing threads. Your idea might already be under discussion. If so, feel free to add your input or vote on it. More votes = more visibility.

  • Separate multiple ideas. If you have several suggestions, split them into individual topics so we can review (and others can vote on) each one more effectively.

  1. On lower end devices, GoodNotes for windows frequently maxes out the CPU or RAM. When using Google Chrome for the web version, this no longer happens. It is particularly bad when erasing. Implementing some form of low quality mode or some other way to reduce CPU and RAM load would be very nice.

  4. sometimes it's hard to write on the corner of the page, so would be cool if we could swipe a part of the page off the laptop screen

  5. After moving something with the lasso tool and tapping on the screen, I still have to press the center button of the Slim Pen 2 to go back to the stylus I had before. Please remove the last step where I have to press the middle button again.

  6. Instead of circling the whole area or letter that is needed to be moved or adjusted, it would be better if we could possibly just select the individual letter/area needing to be moved. Also, while selecting the area/letters, it would be nice to change the color or font type/size .

  7. There is a bug, where the pen input isn't put on the page for ca. 5 sec. on a certain part of the page. Also there is a bug where the page seems to scroll to the top of the page randomly. The performance is relatively slow and when moving the page the background becomes blurry and takes 1 sec. to render.

  8. So, instead of having just 3 options of width of the erasor :
    - adding a cursor of thikness, so that we can ourselves choose what we need
    - adding a cursor of opacity of the erasor
    - making it more pixel precise (currently, it is too rough)
    - possibility of creating, let's say, 3 different but PERSONALIZED erasers : like one small and at 100%, one medium but at 40% opacity etc...

    This will save us a lot of time ! Thanks

  9. In the windows Beta, in portrait view, there is a sort of enforced margin, in that you can't display the full page and can only start writing about an inch in. In landscape view this doesn't appear to be a problem but this isn't the most natural way to use a notebook for writing

  11. Double-clicking anywhere on a page automatically zooms in or out, but there is no setting to disable this gesture. It is frequently triggered accidentally while navigating or writing. Please add a toggle under document-editing or navigation settings that allows users to disable double-click/double-tap zoom without changing Windows-wide mouse settings.

  12. I just updated the Goodnotes app on Windows from the Microsoft Store, only to find another update waiting for me inside of the actual app.
    You might ask yourself "Hm, that's odd. Why would it do that?" - easy answer: the app is still a web app just hidden in a native Windows app's window, meaning while you do get the native Windows title bar for the app, the app is still the website.

    The team seriously needs to streamline this updating progress, and there are two ways to do that:

    1) Turn the app into a true native Windows…

  13. After creating a shape (such as a square) be able to highlight it with the lasso tool and have the option to centre it or position it in different parts of the page.

    I attached an image of how it could look below (png & jpg)

  14. Hello,

    It would be nice when you could change the template of the study set flascards. Just like in a normal textbook with the same standard options, like the three colors and grid, lined and others.

    English is not my first language. Sorry for spelling or grammar mistakes. My mother tounge is german.

  15. Hi goodnotes team,
    I really want to subscribe to essential plan but finger gestures are basically non existent on web version. Please bring such basic features to the web version.

  16. I would like to report an issue with spell check in Text Files.

    Currently, spell check does not work reliably: words are often incorrectly highlighted, suggestions are missing or inconsistent, and, in some environments (e.g. Chrome), spell check and extensions do not work at all.
    This makes it difficult to catch spelling mistakes while taking notes.
    This issue may be related to the current WebView-based editor.

  17. The UI is becoming somewhat cluttered, and in particular, various AI controls (which I don't and will never use) are becoming somewhat intrusive. It would be great to have an option to disable these to clear the UI up a little.

  18. When you delete multiple lines of text by holding the delete or backspace button, the text suddenly reappears, and the cursor bypasses all the text you "already" deleted.

  19. 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

  20. Option to hide the pen toolbar (writing tools) when taking notes (Android, PC and online version). It consumes precious space at the top of the page.
