    Thank you for your feedback and patience.


    We have now introduced Auto-Deselect feature in the eraser.

    Once you erase your strokes, you'd be switched back to the previous tool.


    We have also released Scribble to Erase feature, using which you would be able to erase your strokes even more efficiently.


    Do give it a try!


    You can learn about the upcoming features here:

  4. Ability to drag and drop from Google/Gallery images into pages

    In samsung devices this is already a feature in Samsung Notes, adding it to the app will greatly help me in my note taking.

    On samsung devices you can add files(primarily images here) via drag and drop, like on windows, I wish it worked here as well.

    Thank you for your feedback! You can already do this in our Windows app. Click on the three dot menu (•••) under each page to see an option to clear the page content.

  9. Scroll to add page

    Replicate the iOS function where dragging in your scroll direction adds a page to the notebook.

  10. Ability to rotate the page in order to write at an angle.

    I learned to write with a slight angle as it makes handwriting look better. I would like to be able to tilt my page instead of my device.

    Thanks you for your feedback! GoodNotes for Windows already supports rotating of individual pages. You can rotate a page by heading into sidebar > pages > more (•••) menu.

  11. Improvements on the Lasso Tool

    The lasso tool allows you to move whatever you've circled. But I think that there could be a bit more use for the lasso, in my Journal Application that I use I'm able to Lasso tool and change them. Aside from moving the circled parts, I can also rotate and adjust the size of the words. If I zoom in or out the words would change sizes too. I think that this will help people write words and adjust them how ever they want to better fit the paper versus constantly rewriting words and hoping it will fit right.

    Thank you for your feedback! The page thumbnail feature already supports this action. Click on the button to the left of the document name and you can show or hide page thumbnails.


  13. Effacer des traits

    Au lieu d'effacer une zone, il serait intéressant que l'application propose une fonction permettant d'effacer un trait complet dès lors qu'il y a contact avec la gomme.

  15. [BETA] Web Sharing: Bug: Firefox on Windows does not show text, only pen marks

    I am not yet part of the GoodNotes on Windows beta. This is just in regards to the beta websharing option.

    I created a new notebook to see if it would work for my upcoming Inorganic Chemistry lab. One thing I noticed right away is that the text blocks were not showing up in my browser, but the handwritten (not converted) blocks were.

    I tried refreshing the browser, and that did not help.
    Interestingly, the text blocks do show up in the thumbnails.

    (Also note: I tried turning off AdGuard and that did not help.)

    I tried switching to Chrome…

    Thank you for your feedback! We've fixed this issue now. You should be able to view text on your notebook on Firefox browser. Please let us know if otherwise.


    If you run into any other issues, we recommend using a Chromium based browser to view your notes.
