  1. On MacOS and iOS, GoodNotes is very effective with the quirks that come with both platforms. However, the Windows platform has a plethora of quirks that can make a Windows GoodNotes as good as the one on iOS. Here is a quick list I came up with that would enhance GoodNotes on the Windows platform:

    Integration with Windows apps: Integrating with other Windows apps such as OneNote, Microsoft To-Do, or Microsoft Office would make GoodNotes more useful and provide a better user experience.

    Cloud integration: Windows users often rely on Microsoft's cloud services like OneDrive or SharePoint. Integrating GoodNotes with…

  2. This feature exists in every notes app.
    When a photo is imported you should be able to crop the part you are interested in (using a lasso tool, rectangle selector and many other selectors), and drag it as if it were a new photo.
    This is used for example when an assignment is given in a PDF file, and the user would want to crop out each question and place them at the top of each page.

  3. I am loving that Goodnotes has an experimental typing function. I would love to see this open up a little more by letting us be able to do everything that we can the write to text function. This includes being able to change font styles and size.

    Also, we need to be able to use the typing function along with the writing function. What do I mean? I mean that if we have something written down, I'd like to be able to sometimes switch to typing out things without the typing overlaying the already written text when I already have…

  5. There's a slow pen response while writing. After a few seconds, letters or strokes starts appearing, and even sometimes, all of the gestures aren't recognized.

  7. I have a planner that comes with Goodnotes files format that are basically stickers and pictures. When I import, it does not work. I get unsupported file format. Can we have the ability to read all types of files, especially Goodnotes files?

  9. It would be nice to add typing system + ability to choose wether it will be a text box which you can plase wherever you want or it will work as typing in MS Word documents (just straight text with an ability to format)

  10. Hello, GoodNotes Developers

    I’m glad that I can use GoodNotes in Android.

    GoodNotes, which works on web app, will not create the experience of using GoodNotes on iPad. That's why you have to make it work as a native app.

    The limitations of web app are clear. For example, latency.

    To compete with Samsung Note (Free to download!!), you need to provide a better experience.

    I understand that it is a beta version now, but I hope it becomes a native app when it is released as an official version.

  12. It's a bit annoying, to see the cursor of the pencil while writing. Otherwise there seems to be a short delay between input and output while writing with the pencil.

  15. As a user of the app Samsung notes, I would really like to see some of the best and most convenient features come to life in Goodnotes.

    For example, the ability to change the template of one page individually or the template of the whole document at the same time, or the ability to export just one page of the document or the whole notebook.
    Another really useful feature Samsung notes has is the ability to align any handwritten stroke or element.
    The shape tool is great, but it would be really nice if we could change the width or…

  18. Hi, thank you for allowing Windows users to test the Beta version. I like the rendering of the lasso tool; it moves very smoothly. I also like the varying options of the notebook covers and page choices.

    Below are 6 additions that will improve the current & future version's productivity & functionality:

    1. audio recording feature (+ audio following written or typed words written at that time when audio is played back)
      * good for students needing to relisten to specific parts of the lecture

    2. typing feature
      * allow ability to type AND draw rather than just drawing (this'll help take…

  19. Many digital planning users utilize PDFs with Goodnotes for planning. We at weekview offer digital planners, and the majority of our customers use Goodnotes. Apple users can enjoy the benefits of hyperlinks, but unfortunately, Android and Windows desktop users cannot yet. It would be extremely important for Android and Windows users to also be able to use hyperlinks with Goodnotes.
