  1. It would be nice if you could update windows goodnote to be like the goodnote for IOS. It feels like goodnotes windows was just dropped and forgotten about while IOS got good notes 5.

  2. When scrolling the page with the mouse there is a very strong lag that makes it very annoying to use.

  3. Many digital planning users utilize PDFs with Goodnotes for planning. We at weekview offer digital planners, and the majority of our customers use Goodnotes. Apple users can enjoy the benefits of hyperlinks, but unfortunately, Android and Windows desktop users cannot yet. It would be extremely important for Android and Windows users to also be able to use hyperlinks with Goodnotes.

  6. Hi, thank you for allowing Windows users to test the Beta version. I like the rendering of the lasso tool; it moves very smoothly. I also like the varying options of the notebook covers and page choices.

    Below are 6 additions that will improve the current & future version's productivity & functionality:

    1. audio recording feature (+ audio following written or typed words written at that time when audio is played back)
      * good for students needing to relisten to specific parts of the lecture

    2. typing feature
      * allow ability to type AND draw rather than just drawing (this'll help take…

  8. Could the topics, pages or any item on the page, with some kind of address, or link. Same as Notion do. With this, we can refference some page or topic and create hiperlink to just click and go.

  9. It would be nice to have the ability to fill different shapes with an extra tool. This is a thing I also miss in samsung notes (and a reason for me to switch to GoodNotes if the app comes out in the full version).
    This tool should work for pen and marker.

  11. I'm using the goodnotes app on surface book 2 with surface pen. Compared to other apps like Onenote or “Concept” drawing app, there's a apparent input lag when I was writing.
    Wishing to be improved later.

  14. Please make it so that I can turn off the function where pressing and holding with my pen opens the menu to add a comment. I have turned press and hold off in my Windows system settings so I know it is something within the app itself

  16. For me this would be really useful especial because we don't have files for different subjects- My music teacher sends me scores every few weeks to annotate read off etc. so having the ability to organize this with ether files or PDF files put into pre-existing notebooks would be great.

  17. (I would also like this feature on Ipad). When you use a ruled line format and then type text, the text does not align with the lines after a few sentences. I would like a feature that allows you to have your text neatly written on the lines. Maybe even so that you can choose the distance between an upper and lower sentence so it can fit the lines. This feature will make it more appealing to also write some text without making it messy :)

  18. Ich fand es richtig cool, dass es endlich GoodNotes für Windows gibt und habe mich sehr gefreut. Für den Anfang ist es ein passabler Start, aber mit viel Luft nach oben, vor allem wenn man GoodNotes schon von Apple Geräten kennt.
    Was ich sehr schade finde und was dringend benötigt wird, ist die Funktion, dass man seine Aufschriebe auch als PDF speichern kann. Das ist vor allem für Studenten wichtig, denn wenn man Aufgabenblätter abgeben muss, muss man diese auch speichern können.
    Außerdem gibt es weder die Funktion, dass es Linien, Kreise und andere Formen erkennt, noch dass man sowas…

  19. After finished highlighting a pdf, and saving it, the saved document has the highlight in front of the text, instead of behind it as it was while editing the pdf. Hope I was clear, and the problem is an easy fix!

    Thanks so much for sharing your feedback so we can make Goodnotes better. 


    The feature is in our backlog! We would inform you once the feature is live. 

    Please continue sharing your brilliant ideas through our feature request portal.


    Thank you for being part of our community!

  20. Several note apps or pdf apps have supported using webdav for sync between devices. For those who have private file servers os NAS webdav is a better way to protect personal privacy and allow bigger storage.
