  2. I selected A3 checkered paper and it kind of bugged. The lining on one part of the paper is more light than the other and it's laggy.

  4. Hi Goodnotes Team,

    I am using Goodnotes on a Samsung Galaxy Tablet. While I appreciate the expansion to Android, two major issues severely limit the experience compared to iPadOS:

    Missing Study Sets: It is very frustrating that Study Sets / Flashcards cannot be imported, created, or used on Android. This feature is essential for my daily studying.

    Need for a Native App instead of a Web Application: The current Android version feels like a stripped-down Web App (PWA). We as Samsung / Android users need a true, native Android application with full feature parity to the iPad version, reliable offline…

  7. it is so insanely distracting when i try to work and really ruins the otherwise aesthetic look of the app. and the neon cyan logo has the same affect. ive seen so many other people with the same complaint, i dont really understand why nothing has been done to change this when it seems like a pretty simple change and would really please so many of your users and thats what this page is for?

  8. On the iPad version, the OS share menu is displayed, allowing actions like copying and pasting into a note, but currently the web version only allows downloading.

    Therefore, I would like you to implement a button to copy to the clipboard and a share button using the Web Share API.

  10. When I launch Goodnotes for Windows, the window always opens in the default position.

    Ideally, I would like it to start maximized on my secondary monitor. However, even if I move it there, maximize it, and then close the application, the next time I launch it, it still opens as a small window on my primary monitor.

    Having to rearrange the window every time I start the app has become quite frustrating. As a result, I am currently using Goodnotes for Web installed through Vivaldi's PWA feature instead. However, I would prefer to use Goodnotes for Windows.

    To make that…

  11. Hello Goodnotes Team,

    I’ve encountered an issue in the Android version of Goodnotes that affects writing usability. The top toolbar permanently overlaps the upper part of the page, making it impossible to write on the top line or in the uppermost area of the document.

    In the iPad version, this is solved elegantly: the page automatically shifts downward whenever the toolbar is placed at the top, ensuring that no content is hidden and the full writing area remains accessible.

    On Android, however, the page does not adjust its position, so the toolbar covers part of the canvas. This makes precise…

  12. Please add the ability to choose the app theme independently from the system.

    Right now, Goodnotes on Windows follows the system theme, but many users may want a different theme inside the app (for example: dark system, light notes for better readability).

  13. Support for Video and Document Files in Folders

    Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I would like to suggest a feature that I believe would greatly improve the usability of your application.

    It would be extremely helpful if users could import and store video files, as well as document formats such as Word and Excel, directly within folders in GoodNotes. Currently, the app is excellent for notes and PDFs, but adding support for these file types would make it a much more complete professional tool.

    In my case, I work as a carpenter, and I often need to present full project information to…

  14. I study with GoodNotes 6 on my Windows PC.

    To highlight with a mouse is not fast if you wanna be accurate. Moroever, if it's a short word, that increases the difficulty.
    When I try it, maybe 30% of times pop up a menu with the options: paste and add comment. It's extremely annoying, and it makes me waste time every day.

    You should configure the option to disable it. Or at least, give us the option to modify the time the mouse click is held down, because right now it's crazy short.

    Thank you

  15. 私が勤務する高校でGoodnotes Educationを導入しました。授業で使用する書類の整理等をWindows/Web版で行おうとしましたが、クラスフォルダへ授業プリントを入れることができませんでした。今後、WindowsPCで準備をしやすくしてもらえると嬉しいです。現在は、PCにある授業プリントを、Googleドライブに入れ、それをiPadでGoodnotesに移すという作業を行っていますが、少し面倒です :(

  17. There shouldn't be a character limit for outline titles. For example, I can't use "Comparison of Linear and Angular Motion with Constant Acceleration" as an outline title due to the character limit.

  18. I just recently started using Goodnotes as a way to take notes while listening to live lectures. Due to the live nature of this, it requires a lot of shorthand note-taking. Specifically, I shorten the word "Number" to "#", which is a regular shorthand for many people. However, when I type "# " (specifically, # with a space after), the Text Document auto formats and creates a new line with a much larger font that has been made bold. This regularly breaks up my flow when note-taking. From my research, Goodnotes does not allow for Custom Formatting. But I also…

  19. Goodnotes offers a great digital note-taking experience, especially with the ability to annotate directly on books and documents. This feature is highly valuable for students and professionals who want to keep their study or work materials organized and accessible.

    However, there are some limitations that affect the overall usability. One significant drawback is that Goodnotes does not allow writing in a fully formatted document style like a traditional word processor. This makes it challenging to keep notes tidy, symmetrical, and well-formatted, which can be frustrating for users who prefer a more structured layout when organizing their notes.

    Another area of…

  20. Can yall pretty please make a feature to where we can choose a default color for the text box that isn’t the black one. I hate having to change my text box to the color I want each time I make a new text box.
