drag images/text between pages!!
On Android, if you want to insert something between your handwritten notes — for example, to add a new paragraph or image you can’t select and drag your notes to the next page like you can on the iPad version. This makes rearranging or adding content in the middle of a page quite difficult. It would be great if the Android version supported the same smooth page movement and selection features as the iPad app.

Native App for Samsung/Android
Turn Goodnotes for Android to an full on native app, same as on the Ipad where it performs smooth, not like that cheap web version on Android, I'm really happy you guys moved your app also to Android but you can't say that web thing is good, we need a real app, a native app and I hope that's what you guys are working on.

Fix surface pen support
Up until this "overhaul update" the surface pen worked like it was supposed to. Using the pencil tip would use whatever tool you select and using the eraser side would temporary activate the eraser until you go back to using the pencil tip. Now when you use the eraser, it switches to the eraser tool but stays on it until you reselect the pen tool. This is extremely irritating and I do not want to have to switch platforms when it was literally just working a day ago.

text size
with the new Essential update (on Windows) i've lost the abillity to quickly type notes in class because i have to reset the size of the text every time i open a new text box. It's also quite annoying it keeps jumping to the lasso function after every text box i make.
I'd like to just keep being in the text function and have an overall font size for the entire document like i could before the update.
The rest of the updates are really good!

moving pages and items
i think you should be able to move items and pages from one file to another
43 votesThank you for the suggestion.
This is in our roadmap. In the meantime, we recommend using the Copy & Paste page feature as a workaround to have a similar result.
We understandable that this is not the most efficient solution, but please know we are working towards brining the "move" feature in our Android & Windows app.
Thank you,
The Goodnotes Team

Lock images for touchscreen users on Windows
It would be incredibly helpful if Goodnotes for Windows included a feature to lock images on the page. This would prevent accidental touch interactions, especially when working on top of screenshots to solve problems or annotate content.

Make the Android version equivalent to the IOS version of GoodNotes
The current Android versionof GoodNotes relies on Chrome for execution and presents recurring issues with PDF export, even for a simple notebooks. This dependency compromises stability and usability, creating a significant gap compared to the native IOS experience.
The proposal is to develop a truly native Android version, aligned withthe IOS app, eliminating browser dependency and ensuring reliable document export. This would improve performance, reduce errors and provide a consistent cross-platform experience, strengthening user trust and the app's reputation.8 votes -
Add PDF imports / printouts to whiteboards
Please add a feature to import PDFs onto a whiteboard.
This would create the ability to write next to the pages (or slides), reorder the pages, etc.
A currently available workaround would be to convert the PDF to multiple images and add them individually below one another, which can get annoying pretty quickly.9 votes -

Text input with default color
It would be helpful to be able to choose a default color for text input so that we wouldn't have to change it after every entry. I have a student who uses Goodnotes on Windows 11, and this option isn't available, even though it exists on the iPad.

Improvement suggestions
- Please allow adding multiple spell-check languages at the same time. Currently, text in other languages is marked as incorrect even though it’s valid.
- Please add an option to add custom words to the dictionary, so they won’t be flagged as mistakes in the future.
- When drawing shapes (like straight lines or rectangles), the next stroke often jumps to the bottom of the page. This makes it hard to draw anything that requires more than one line.
- In text documents it’s possible to insert tables. It would be great if tables could also be added in all other document types.

Text boxes, shapes, multiple tabs, lagging, make it an app
Here are some improvements I would very much like to see happen (some of which we had but were taken away in the latest updates):
Text boxes:
Normally you could adjust the size of the text next to the 'T' symbol which would then stay the same for the entire document, now I have to adjust the sizes with every text box I make (it always goes back to size 24) = see screenshot
We used to be able to stay in the text function, now every time i close a text box it goes to the lasso function, every…

Fix the lag on android please!!
What the title say. The user experience on android is very bad with horrible lag. It makes the app border line useless for writing, an activity which requires immediate feedback.
How you can release this as a product and have the gall to charge money for it is beyond me
