  2. 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.

  3. Please give windows users on-device transcripts. It's incredibly unfair and outrageous that only apple users can have unlimited on-device transcriptions while windows users have to pay extra for cloud transcriptions. This is so deeply upsetting that I'm considering switching to a different service.

  4. 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…

  5. On the iPad version, the OS share menu is displayed, allowing actions like copying and pasting into a note, but currently the web version only allows downloading.

    Therefore, I would like you to implement a button to copy to the clipboard and a share button using the Web Share API.

  6. I would like to request basic image editing tools in Text Files.
    Currently, when pasting images, there is no way to modify them (for example, crop or adjust them) directly inside the document as it works on iOS.

    Having the same functionality on Windows and Web would greatly improve the workflow.

  7. I would like to request the ability to export audio recordings on Windows.
    Currently, it is possible to record audio in Goodnotes, but there is no way to export these recordings outside the app on these platforms.
    This is a limitation, especially for students who rely on lecture recordings for studying and review.

  8. Typing in Text Files on Windows is not responsive.

    There is a delay when writing or deleting text, especially in longer notes, which makes it hard to keep up during lectures.

    This likely comes from the current WebView-based editor.

    It would help to improve performance, for example by optimizing rendering or reducing the load on large documents, so typing feels immediate even in long notes.

  9. 안드로이드 버전에도, IOS처럼 화면 상단에 열려 있는 문서 제목들이 써져 있어 빠르게 전환이 가능한 탭 바가 적용되었으면 좋겠습니다.
    다른 문서를 열려면 기존 문서에서 나가 열고 싶은 다른 문서를 찾아야 하는데, 이 과정이 너무 번거롭네요.
    두 문서 혹은 그 이상의 문서를 동시에 작엄해야 하는 경우에는 더욱 불편합니다.
    이 부분이 개선된다면 정말 효율적이고 편리한 이용이 가능해질 것 같습니다!!
    PLZZZZZZ!!!

  10. Hello Goodnotes Team,

    I’ve encountered an issue in the Android version of Goodnotes that affects writing usability. The top toolbar permanently overlaps the upper part of the page, making it impossible to write on the top line or in the uppermost area of the document.

    In the iPad version, this is solved elegantly: the page automatically shifts downward whenever the toolbar is placed at the top, ensuring that no content is hidden and the full writing area remains accessible.

    On Android, however, the page does not adjust its position, so the toolbar covers part of the canvas. This makes precise…

  13. 私が勤務する高校でGoodnotes Educationを導入しました。授業で使用する書類の整理等をWindows/Web版で行おうとしましたが、クラスフォルダへ授業プリントを入れることができませんでした。今後、WindowsPCで準備をしやすくしてもらえると嬉しいです。現在は、PCにある授業プリントを、Googleドライブに入れ、それをiPadでGoodnotesに移すという作業を行っていますが、少し面倒です :(

  14. I just recently started using Goodnotes as a way to take notes while listening to live lectures. Due to the live nature of this, it requires a lot of shorthand note-taking. Specifically, I shorten the word "Number" to "#", which is a regular shorthand for many people. However, when I type "# " (specifically, # with a space after), the Text Document auto formats and creates a new line with a much larger font that has been made bold. This regularly breaks up my flow when note-taking. From my research, Goodnotes does not allow for Custom Formatting. But I also…

  16. The time keeper tool allows users to track how long they have been working within certain documents, and overall, the work hours during the week. Would be great for productivity and a confidence boost for those of us feeling like we aren't working enough.

  17. it could be very useful and efficient if we could make the page full screen. So we could close the window where we see all the pages and have a full-screen white page. I have attached an example
