  1. Since the latest update, the only pen option is the fountain pen, which I have found really annoying to use - not sure why the biro feature has disappeared?

  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. A lot of people talked about changing font, so I won't discuss it besides saying I personally hate the current font because I think it's kinda ugly, and that there should be a default font setting.

    These features should be for ALL users to access for free.

    1. Ability to deselect pens and things so you can swipe through pages easier.

    2. Custom handwriting font tool: being able to set up a personal alphabet font to freely use.

    3. Free shopping options in market.

    4. Save/import from Google Drive/selected apps & Websites.

    5. Increase free editable notebook limit: Only 3? C'mon, be real. Some don't…

  10. Please can we have the ability to have the same subscriptions from iOS to Android/windows. I would like to be able to use Goodnotes across my various electronics because I love it and use it constantly on my iPad. But right now due to having the "Special Edition" subscription that is apparently "Only available on Apple platforms" I can't use my favorite note taking app on my windows computer.

  11. Can we please have more customizations for folders, pens/pencil, templates, etc?! It may or may not make goodnotes even more enjoyable for users.

    I would like to see more updates for more settings of pens and pencil, especially for our handwriting. It can make our handwriting much more better.

  12. Ich nutze GoodNotes schon länger und war anfangs sehr zufrieden, aber seit dem letzten Update hat die App auf Android und Windows deutlich an Qualität verloren.

    Die Ladezeiten sind sehr lang, besonders bei größeren Notizbüchern. Teilweise müssen Seiten mehrmals geöffnet werden, bis die Aufschriebe überhaupt angezeigt werden. Außerdem ist es nicht möglich, mehrere Dokumente gleichzeitig zu öffnen, was das Arbeiten und Vergleichen von Notizen erschwert.

    Ein weiterer großer Nachteil: Die Synchronisierung zwischen den Geräten funktioniert seit dem letzten Update deutlich schlechter. Notizen werden verspätet oder gar nicht geladen, und manchmal erscheinen Änderungen erst nach mehrmaligem Neustart.

    Insgesamt schade, denn die…

  13. Hey, I'm looking for an app where i can actually import pdfs and highlight using both the pen or the mouse (with straight highlighting not freed hand or where i can both draw, add images and so on Grow a Garden).

    I thought about goodnotes but it seems it's not pretty good on these 2 platforms. Another alternative would be liquid text but it's expensive as well.

    Do you guys have any idea? thanks!

  14. The infinite whiteboards could also have pages, like tabs, so we could group several related ones into a single board.

  15. From time to time, some shortcuts stop working, such as navigating sideways with the keyboard arrows and CTRL+Z. This way, I have to close the notebook/whiteboard and open it again for them to function again.

  16. Scrolling up and down with the mouse scroll wheel is too fast, at least for me. I often lose sight of my notes and have to close the notebook/whiteboard and open it again. When I lower the mouse scroll speed (which is the default setting), it becomes somewhat slow for the other programs.

  17. 以前のバージョンまで塗りつぶしされた図形の枠線に触れる、もしくは、1つ前に戻るコマンドで、図形の枠線のみを消し、塗りつぶしの枠がない状態を作れていました。
    アップデートにより、それができなくなってしまったのが非常に残念です。
    (数学の立体図形の面を示す場合など非常に有用なツールでした。)

  18. Can we please have more settings for all of the pens and pencil? I notice that there is a difference between how your hand is positioned when using a fountain pen. When I am positioning my hand sideways, it looks so much better than when it's not sideways (I may be the only one to tell the difference). Can we also get a mechanical pencil setting too?

    If not, Someone could possibly help me achieve the settings I would like to have with the fountain and ballpoint pen.

    Also I am fine with the new update. I do feel as…

  19. On Windows/Android at this moment you can export your document only as "PDF".
    Please extend the export function with the file types ".goodnotes" and ".png" like on IOS.

  20. I am a user who subscribed to the Goodnotes Essential plan a few days ago. I was looking into why my Goodnotes library won't sync between Windows and iOS, and I found the following text:

    'If you purchased this plan before September 23, 2025, you are eligible for Goodnotes Cloud. If you purchased this plan after September 23, 2025, you will need to upgrade to the Goodnotes Pro plan to use Goodnotes Cloud.'

    When will cross-platform sync be supported for the Essential plan? I subscribed to this plan because the pricing clearly indicated that the Essential plan also supports cross-platform…
