  2. I exclusively use the web version on both Windows and iOS devices.
    However, the iPencil does not work while using my iPad while using the Web version.

    It would be extremely helpful to be able to use the iPencil in the Web version on an iPad

  5. I bought the Goodnotes 6 lifetime version, I would like to use my windows for typing long things but I'd have to delete my original account and then transfer everything over. That's not worth the small amount of tasks the web version allows you to do. I have no problem paying the extra $10/ year to add all platforms.

  6. I wish Goodnotes allowed automatic document importing. At the moment, my PDF files don’t appear in the list of files available for import. I have to use WPS Office to convert them into a format that Goodnotes can accept.

  7. I’ve been trying out the web version of Goodnotes for a while, and while I appreciate having access from any device, I feel that it’s still quite limited compared to the iOS/Android apps. For example, chiikawa puzzle features like handwriting search, pressure-sensitive pen input, and easier notebook management are missing.

    I think having at least basic support for these functions on the web would make Goodnotes much more practical for people who use different platforms daily. Right now, the web version feels more like a viewer than a real workspace.

    Just wanted to share my thoughts — I really enjoy…

  8. This can include a pdf format of all your files in one app, and can export or import or reorganize your documents from here. This would be in substitution to the traditional back up to google drive or Icloud, which takes quiet some time to update and back up documents.

  10. One time pay Goodnotes for Windows (just like for Apple).
    If you are developing this already, when can I buy the one-time version?

  11. I often import pdfs into Goodnotes. I do this for readings, which are often scanned in horizontally, so I end up rotating the page so that the words are oriented right side up. However, it would be great if I could rotate all pages of the notebook/pdf at once, so that I do not need to rotate each one individually.

  14. Make savable templates for fonts and subheadings, so you don't have to reformat each time you import text in.

  15. Hello GoodNotes Team,

    I really enjoy using GoodNotes on Android, but I miss one important feature that is available on Apple devices. On iPad, when you select the text tool (T) and write with the Apple Pencil, the handwriting is instantly turned into typed text in a chosen beautiful font — without using the keyboard.

    I would love to have the same feature on Android with the S Pen:

    Ability to write directly with the stylus in text mode, without opening the keyboard

    Instant conversion of handwriting to typed text while writing

    Option to choose from beautiful fonts or add…

  17. I have a feature suggestion that I believe would be really helpful for users like myself. It would be great if you could add a timer option for the laser pen tool that allows us to adjust the disappearance time of markings. Currently, once the laser pen is used, the marks disappear too quickly, and it would be beneficial to have more control over how long the marks stay visible.

    Having the ability to set a specific timer for how long the markings stay on the screen would help users better plan and communicate, especially during presentations or while explaining…

  18. Making GoodNotes for Windows a Web app by simply dumping it through Swift to WASM immediately makes the app use significantly more resources and hinders the overall experience and battery life, causing pen inputs to have a significant delay and require online connectivity, etc. This kind of experience is NOT what you would want your users on an ipad to use, so why Windows?

    Like you did for iOS, please make GoodNotes for Windows a native Windows App instead of a PWA. This mess is NOT the path your team should be going down.

  19. I really enjoy using Goodnotes, but the desktop version could use better mouse support. Here are a few suggestions:

    1. Text Selection with Mouse: It's hard to select text using a mouse right now. It would help to have a dedicated "text selection" tool for mouse users.

    2. Shape Drawing with Mouse Drag: Please consider allowing users to draw shapes (like arrows, circles, rectangles) by dragging with the mouse (just like in OneNote, Google Docs, Word, and Canva on desktop)

    3. Shift Key for Perfect Shapes: Support for holding Shift to draw straight lines (horizontal/vertical), perfect shapes (circle, square), and straight highlighter lines
