  2. I selected A3 checkered paper and it kind of bugged. The lining on one part of the paper is more light than the other and it's laggy.

  5. 유료사용 중인데 안드로이드 스마트폰(ex : 갤럭시 S25, S26)에서는 편집 자체가 불가능합니다.
    안드로이스 탭 뿐만 아니라 스마트폰에서도 가능하게 가능하도록 바꿔 주시기 바랍니다.
    정말 좋은 앱을 사용하고 있었는데 이번에 안드로이드에서도 되는 줄 알고 폰을 변경했다가 편집이 안되는걸 알고 계속 구독을 해야 할 지 말아야할지를 고민하고 있습니다. 안드로이드 스마트폰 사용자까지 흡수하게 되면 정말 좋을것 같으니 꼭 가능하도록 변경 해 주세요.

  6. I noticed that although 'Handwriting Search' and 'Handwriting-to-Text' are listed as features on the Japanese version of the site, Japanese is not actually available in the settings. It feels a bit misleading to promote these features on a localized page if the language itself isn't supported.

  7. Add the ability to permanently change textbox format settings
    Ex: select font size, color.
    I am tired of having to open a new text and change it every time to a different font/color.

  8. I would like the ability to search across all documents, not just within a single file.
    For example, if I search for a specific word like “rockxgr” and I don’t know which document contains it, the system should return all document(s) where that text appears.
    In short, a global search feature that scans all documents and identifies where the specified word or phrase is located

  9. I know things autosave, but sometimes new things I write does not and then I lose all the things I wrote notes for my classes.

    To help be more precise for users to know for sure their new edits are saved before closing, add a "SAVE NOW" button!! to prevent any of these issues.

  11. Goodnotes offers a great digital note-taking experience, especially with the ability to annotate directly on books and documents. This feature is highly valuable for students and professionals who want to keep their study or work materials organized and accessible.

    However, there are some limitations that affect the overall usability. One significant drawback is that Goodnotes does not allow writing in a fully formatted document style like a traditional word processor. This makes it challenging to keep notes tidy, symmetrical, and well-formatted, which can be frustrating for users who prefer a more structured layout when organizing their notes.

  12. Can yall pretty please make a feature to where we can choose a default color for the text box that isn’t the black one. I hate having to change my text box to the color I want each time I make a new text box.

  13. A toggleable (on/off) grid would make writing on imported PDFs much easier.

    The Zoom Window helps only in small areas, and handwriting often becomes uneven when looking at the whole page.
    A page‑wide grid would keep both handwriting and shapes aligned.

    Additionally, a dot‑grid would be especially helpful because it guides writing without being too visible.

  15. It would be great if creating text boxes felt more flexible.
    For example, when holding a modifier key (such as Left Ctrl), it should be possible to draw a text box directly in any size by dragging.

    Additionally, if the text inside the box becomes too large to fit, the font size should automatically decrease so the text always stays within the fixed dimensions of the box.
    This would prevent the text box from resizing itself and keep the layout consistent.

  16. It would be great if entire folders could be pinned to the tab bar.
    This would allow quick access to frequently used collections of notebooks without having to open each document individually.

  17. Estaria mas sencillo y tambien fluido poder mover la barra de herramienta de escritura a los lados de la pantalla (izquierda, derecha, abajo), tambien podrian agregar que para cambio de color sea presionando en un icono y despligue los colores que ya tienes en la barra de herramientas sin tener que abrir toda la barra, al igual que poder esconderlo para tener mayor visibilidad y espacio para escribir.

  18. I wish highlights would move with text when editing text in text box / main document as opposed to having to lasso the text section to keep the highlight with the text or having to delete the highlight, move the text and then highlight again. Makes my notes messy as I'm not able to edit my text as easily (keeping the highlight) as in apps like Word.

  19. When using a PC with a mouse and no touchscreen, navigating around a witheboard is difficult. I would suggest having a "hand" tool like you see in PDF readers and scrollbars like in Freeform.

  20. I can pull up notebooks on the outer screen, but can't do anything with it. No options to create text boxes or draw with finger. Works decently on inter display.
