  • Create a new thread if it’s new. If your suggestion is unique, start a new thread. Write a short, clear headline that quickly conveys your main idea, and include context and details in the description.
  • Separate multiple ideas. If you have several suggestions, split them into individual topics so we can review (and others can vote on) each one more effectively.

  1. Please enable the highlighter to form shapes like is done for the normal pen. I would love to draw rectangles or squares with the highlighter.

  3. It's lagging so much like each 3 minutes I have to re-open the app
    when I try to write using the pc pen the screen moves since it's so sensitive for finger touch

  4. I was so happy when I knew that goodnote5 is going to be available for Windows! The experience I have had in trying the app is good as a beta ver. and here are some suggestions I wish it will be added or improved soon:
    Change from eraser to pen automatically. When I erase by clicking on the button of my pen, it stays on the erasing option. While rushing in taking notes I sometimes forget to choose the pen after erasing so I erase by mistake other words.
    Converting shapes and lines drawn by hand to drawn shapes and…

  6. When using the surface pen you can use the other side to erase and that works perfectly fine, but I would love a setting where I can make it go back to using my pen tool when I flip my surface pen back over and start writing again. Right now it stays on the eraser tool, but would be nice if it automatically switched back to the pen tool

  7. When writing having haptic pen feedback would be super nice to have, even making the haptics differ from highlighter to pen would be great. Similar to onenote

  8. Having the possibility to upload documents as PDF files automatically once changes are done directly to a cloud service would be invaluable. Students studying abroad or frequent travelers would benefit most from this since it would allow access to documents from any device at any time.
    To complement this feature, offline editing would make GoodNotes perfect: editing a document offline, storing changes locally, then uploading updated versions once an internet connection is available.

  9. I know Samsung Tablet support is planned right now, however the existing Mi Pad 5 and 6, also the upcoming models are considered good notetaking tablets. I would wish for a support for pressure sensitivity and palm rejection for the Xiaomi Tablets & Pens. If it's possible, the ability to change the tools with the pens buttons would be nice too.

  10. Having the ability to type or handwrite then change into text (ink to text) would be very helpful and would make the notebooks neater. This function is available on IOS so why not windows?

  13. I can see the cursor slipping out and away from the nib of my pen as I write. Calibration is necessary so that marks appear where they are intended.

    When I zoom in I should be able to lock the page to that zoom level so that it doesn't change when I get a notification or place my palm on the page to continue writing.
