  1. It is almost impossible to use a planner using Goodnotes through windows as there is no way to jump around your document using hyperlinks. It is really frustrating and I am really not sure why it isn't a feature but working hyperlinks need to be added to the windows version of Goodnotes

  2. Because the functionality is so incredibly limited, I'm guessing the beta was released just to see what the interest level was.

    I would suggest adding far more features so that we can really get excited about having the full version, just like the iOS one. You could set up pre-orders even!

    The beta does not give me any incentive to want to switch from my current pdf markup app. From what I've seen others do with the iOS version though, I would switch in a heartbeat if this version were anything like that.

    Give us something to get excited about…

  3. We can now import documents into Goodnotes which is AMAZING, but now I think it is more crucial than ever to be able to have text recognition, select texts, highlight texts, and add comments that are linked to the highlighted text. This probably also goes in line with being able to type text with a keyboard.

  8. On the one hand, I would find importing files very important. In addition, I lack the function to insert my own pictures or pdf's as a booklet template. There are too many differences in the thickness of the pins. The smallest step is too thin compared to medium, which is already very thick. Otherwise, maybe text fields or similar for typing with a keyboard. In addition, of course, sharing or exporting would be very helpful. Maybe just have a look on some functions of Goodnotes 5.

  9. Similarly to IOS it would be great to have a "pressure pen" that varies in thickness depending on the pressure

  11. Allow the eraser option to either remove by stroke or just the way it is
    Making our own pallete (this would include a colour picker)
    Allow the users to have the ability to control their pen stabiliser (similar to that of digital drawing softwe)
    Making our own page templates or importing from the web
    Pinning pens with different colours
    Most windows styli has two buttons it would be great to allow the user to change commands between those two buttons
    Zooming in and out is a bit laggy as well as writing very quickly
    Costumising page size
    Brush imports or…

  12. A PDF file that I imported has tabs across the top linked to other pages in the same pdf. The links don't work though. It does nothing when I click them. This is a crucial need for those who use GoodNotes as a Calendar/Journal. Also, importing our own custom PDF files to be used as templates is extremely important to most users. I can't find anywhere to set pressure sensitivity or turn off pressure sensitivity for the pen either. Writing doesn't feel as natural and smooth as it does on the iPad either.

  15. I'm really happy to be able to import pdfs. One thing that I wish we had is the ability to add new blank pages onto pdfs we imported. So if I run our of apace, I can just add a new blank page between the pdf pages.

  16. Unlike tablets, PC screens are large and horizontally long, so if you only display one page, there will be a lot of gaps on the screen.

    Therefore, I would like to have a mode that allows me to display pages in two-page spreads and view multiple pages at once.

  17. Hello, I am a first time user to GoodNotes. When I heard that GoodNotes Beta was available on Windows, I immediatley grabbed my chance to try it out.

    As a student, PDFs are one of the most abundant resources for University materials. It would be very nice to be able to both edit PDF pages and add whole/speicific PDF pages either in between some pages in the notebooks or anywhere else in the notebook.
