  1. The option to view all of my pages (the 4 boxes icon) is only available when good notes is minimized to 1/3 of my screen. The option to export select pages from my notebook into a PDF is sadly not an option. I have an ASUS laptop with windows software.

  2. In a PDF book, usually I put my 10-inch Tablet landscape to have a better visual.

    Then, I zoom to discard left and right (usually) blank margins of the page I'm reading, to have the text as big as possible.

    In this situation, it would be great if I could lock the horizontal scroll so when I scroll down to read the next page, the page itself do not move horizontally.

    It is really hard to scroll down (or up) making a perfect straight movement with the finger, so the page always move horizontally during a vertical scroll and I…

  3. Se podría habilitar la opción de cambiar el grosor de los lápices y a su vez mejorar la sensibilidad de este ya que presenta retrasosa la hora de escribir y borrar, también que se puedan abrir pdfs o cuadernos digitales. Permitir la opción de que presionando el botón del Samsung pen se pueda borrar algún escrito o trazo realizado para que así sea más rápido y no tener que estar a cada segundo seleccionando la goma de borrar

  4. Firstly, I hope I can open the document by typing the sharing link into the Windows Goodnotes from iPad Goodnotes, which I made. This can connect the iPad documents from Goodnotes to one from Windows Goodnotes.
    Next, I hope you provide me with more varied versions of pen writing. You are giving us three options only, yet my handwriting is so ugly, I prefer writing to typing. Apple provides me pen writing version for handwriting, which I really fall into using. So could you make a similar one for Goodnotes, too? I would really appreciate it if you could make…

  5. What to add in the Andriod app:

    • an option for Apple users switching to Android, including taking the subscriptions with them

    If I had 5 in GoodNotes (on the iPad) you want to have that on the new device. You paid for it.

    Since there are GoodNotes 6, there is no way for Windows/Android users to make a life-time purchase. This is not at all sustainable to pay every year when Apple users can purchase GoodNotes for 30 EUR.

    On the functions:

    • lack of voice recording
    • the web-based program is very slow!
    • there is no possibility to share (from the…

  6. Like Notion can integrate coding spaces, you can do it too because your platform has a pencil writing feature which can be useful 2 things simultaneously and make a feature integrate web bookmarks or to link a webpage.

  7. After using the beta version for a bit I have a few thoughts on the things that could be fix or added. Firstly the fixes:

    1) Bugs related to notebook rendering (it sometimes doesn’t show the things I wrote when I scroll up to see them)
    2) Speeding it up a bit (other apps run smoothly on my tablet but in GoodNotes Beta the pen has a bit of a lag)
    3) Talking about bugs – when I change the color of the page it doesn’t show up in the notebook (it’s still white)

    And additions that would be great:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your ideas — we really appreciate the thought and effort behind them 🙏

    To help us review and prioritize feedback more effectively, we’re going to close this idea for now. It currently includes multiple suggestions and some of them already live, which makes it harder for us (and other users) to discuss, vote on, and track each one properly.

    If you’d like, please feel free to submit each idea separately, or add your vote to existing ideas that match what you’re suggesting. That really helps us understand what matters most to the community.

    Thanks again for sharing and for helping make the forum better!

  8. Many Planners and templates use the IOS Shortcuts app to link to calendars, notes, chatgpt, etc. but this does not work on android devices. I would like to see a functionality in goodnotes that can take operations of the shortcuts app and redirect those actions to the corresponding applications on Android devices.

  9. Thank you so much for adding a Windows app.

    It would be very nice to link it to my IOS account. I've gotten around this by sharing the workbooks through E-Mail, but I look forward to when I can work seamlessly across my personal intermixed ecosystem. Thank you for continuing to improve.

  15. Everything I typed on my iPad comes up with errors. I shared the link, so I can see the letters on the iPhone properly, but when I run it on the web with the Chrome browser on WINDOW, I get an error and I can't really recognize it. I added a file, so I have this problem, so I hope you can improve it as soon as possible. It's really urgent. It's impossible to collaborate. It's this week's assignment, so I really hope you can improve it quickly.
    To summarize the error, the text overlaps as the last part…

  16. Het zou handig zijn als ik de online versie van GoodNotes kan koppelen aan die op mijn Ipad, zodat alle bestanden van mijn iPad ook op mijn computer staan.

    Ook kan ik nu niet typen in de online versie, wat wel vervelend is.

    Als laatste kan ik geen geopende bestanden opslaan in online versie, waardoor ik elke keer de link naar het goodnotes bestand opnieuw moet zoeken en openen.

  17. ウィンドウズ版グッドノートで、キーボードを使用してテキスト入力をする際、ios版のようにカラーなどの書式設定が保存されるようにしてください。
    その機能がないことのみが理由でグッドノートを選択できません。edgeからpdfにテキストを入力していますが、写真も貼り付けられず毎日苦労しているので、是非グッドノートをより便利にしていただきたいです。

  18. I tried the Windows Beta today. Hit the download link and installed from the Windows Store. Was unpleasantly surprised to find that it's just an Edge-based web app. I prefer Chrome over edge but continued anyway. It changed my default browser to Edge without my permission. It took many tries to sign into my existing Microsoft account. I finally got a Goodnotes window but all that was displayed was a pulsating GN icon. I never got a UI at all.

  20. Lack of Android improvements - Samsung

    I recently bought my Samsung Tab 10 Plus, as I've never been an Apple fan.
    And GoodNotes was included in the benefits package, which is great for my new master's degree. The excitement quickly crumbled because when I started reading the app, it included a calendar, pomodoro, and GPT. What they never clarified is that this only works on iOS.
    I wish they'd take into account the basic improvements Apple already has.

    1. Being able to import templates, covers, spreadsheets, and stickers without having to copy them from a PDF; it's so exhausting. The…
