  4. 每次打开goodnotes笔记本,会无限次的调起idm的下载界面,下载空白的pdf文件,猜测应该是idm检测到goodnotes的网页上有文件就开始下载,希望goodnotes能屏蔽掉idm的下载,否则会反复弹窗导致无法使用

  7. Bonjour,
    Good Notes fonctionne actuellement sur MS Edge. C'est une très mauvaise idée, sur Windows vous avez plusieurs possibilités :
    - sous la forme d'un programme classique (mais problème de mise à jour)
    - sous le format UWP (avantage des mises à jour automatiques via le Microsoft Store et d'une bonne stabilité)
    - sous le format APK avec Windows Android Sub System (sur le long terme plus rentable mais peut rencontrer quelques ralentissements)

    Pour moi, le choix UWP est le plus adapté. Avec MS Edge, en absence de connexion internet, il est impossible de faire une prise de note.
    Par…

  9. I selected A3 checkered paper and it kind of bugged. The lining on one part of the paper is more light than the other and it's laggy.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. 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…

  15. 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.

  16. 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

  17. 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.

  20. 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.
