  1. If I am going to be able to use this daily, like I want to, I'll need two things: 1) Hyperlinks. 2) Ability to type text. Please, I'd love to actually make this useful, but the way it is right now is just... almost glorified paint, to be honest.

  2. I love the idea of having GoodNotes for PC/Windows Users. The Beta version is very limited and at the moment, I have very little use for it. Here are some improvements that I would like to see:

    • There is this zoom feature at the bottom that I cannot turn off and I don't like it.
    • Ability to use the text tool and all text tool editing features like bold, italic, underline, text alignment and text spacing between rows, custom fonts, different size fonts, change font colors.
    • Eraser tool - more user friendly if we can adjust it to our own…

  3. When using a large PDF, I have to find my current page again. Is there a way to make a page marker so that you can pick up where you left off?

  4. Palm rejection works well for making unwanted marks, but Palm movements that move the entire writing page are annoying. Thanks for seeking improvements on making an awesome app.

  5. I think we should be able to print out our edited files and notebooks. It would offer a vast variety of customization and flexibility

  6. To completely replace notability and draw me back to my Android tablet with Goodnotes forever, Goodnotes for Android would include:
    1) A ruler, rotatable with degree settings
    2) Auto arrows
    3) Dashed and dotted lines
    4) more eraser sizes than just the 3 given
    5) Syncing to all my tablets (ipad too) with Googledrive
    6) A choice between a rectangular selection tool and free-form selection tool

  7. folder tree helps to navigate easily (like an windows explorer address bar) and pdf tabs on top to switch between files just like ios app. it would also help if we could resize the pdf layout within the app instead of having multiple goodnote.exe open to work on multiple files simultaneously.

  8. While working with a pdf with a lot of pages, its uncomfortable to look for the last page i was working on. It would be great if a notebook opens up on the last edited page.

  9. There needs to be a lot of slow and steady improvements before we can arrive at full feature parity with the IOS version. But we first need a proper android version and not a half baked web app for the foundation.

    Hats off to the developers for the hard work. Hopefully we can have a full fledged android and windows application with syncing capabilities by fall, just in time for the next school year.

    PS : there is an application on the play store which is already very close to the IOS version of Goodnotes called Jnotes.

  10. Hello I think the toolbar where you can select pen colors and other things would benefit from being able to adjust the toolbar with a right-cick option to allow people to add more colors or more tools into that toolbar.

  11. In a document, when it’s a PDF with two columns, sometimes I need to take notes for each paragraph, so if I use a sticky note to summarise one paragraph, it takes up space over the next paragraph. If we had sticky notes which could be seen as symbols/ icons when not needed, and extended when clicked, it could save a ton of space while allowing us to take notes for each section.

  12. The Z Fold inner screen is nearly 8 inches and also it supports the S Pen which is a useful feature for Goodnotes.

    P.S. also, support for Galaxy S lineup? The Ultra also supports the S Pen, and iPhones support Goodnotes, so what's stopping it from being compatible with the Galaxy S lineup which has larger screens than most iPhones.

    P.P.S. Samsung phones (S and Z Fold/Flip) probably have a lot of users than the S Tab, so expanding Goodnotes compatibility to Samsung phones would potentially increase beta users.

  13. It would be incredible if I could add text boxes to my notes, especially when I'm on my laptop. While I have a touch screen, it doesn't write as easily as my iPad.

  16. see most of us drawn towards goodnotes because of ipad. we just want everything we have done till now on ipad in widows also. like our documents editing. seamless integration between ipad, iphone, windows laptop, imac too if its possible, for apple integration you use icloud. same way use icloud services for windows. in viewing documents or editing documents.

  17. Currently when I write using a pen tablet ( like Wacom/ XP-pen), it takes pen input (writing) and when I use mouse it takes scroll function ( drag and move the page).
    I want to scroll ( drag and move the page) using my pen tablet also because switching between mouse and pen again and again is very inconvenient.

    For that I request you to provide a hand tool, which on being selected drag and move the page. I have attached an image of open board which has similar tool.

  19. On iPad touch interface, there is no mouse pointer stuff.
    But on Windows, we have to see mouse pointer no matter what wacom pen you use.

    Writing with arrow pointer is annoying, GoodNotes on Windows needs to apply pointer by each pen just like MS Whiteboard on Windows version.
