  1. It would be nice to be able to duplicate whiteboards. Currently this option is greyed out. You can duplicate notebooks, but you can't duplicate whiteboards.

  2. Please release out the goodnotes application for Android mobile phone. Especially for all people who haven't an Android tablet because of economic limitations. Like as flexcil and noteshelf applications, they have released out their application on Android mobile phone.

  3. I’ve been using Goodnotes across Android and Windows for a while, and I really appreciate how much the cross-platform experience has improved. I’d like to suggest a few features that I think would make the non-iOS versions feel even closer to the full Goodnotes experience:

    1. Lower pen latency and more responsive strokes
      On Android tablets (especially Samsung and Lenovo), the pen feels noticeably slower than on iPad. Even a small improvement in real-time stroke rendering would make handwriting feel much more natural.

    2. Full offline notebook support
      Right now, working offline can be inconsistent. It would be great if notebooks cached…

  4. Dear Goodnotes Team,

    My name is Praphul P, and I am from India. I am currently building an online educational platform that will launch in the next two months. During my research, I found Goodnotes to be the most powerful and suitable tool for conducting classes, mainly because of its smooth writing experience and excellent web interface.

    However, after the recent update, the interface—especially the new toolbar design—has become difficult to work with. Many of the tools and buttons are now positioned inside the canvas area, which was not the case earlier. This creates a major issue for educators like…

  5. Dear Goodnotes Team,

    I hope you are doing well. I am writing to share feedback regarding a recent change in the selection tool behavior in Goodnotes Web.

    After the latest update, whenever we select elements on the canvas, several options such as Copy, Cut, Transform, Change Color, etc., automatically appear directly on top of the selected content. This makes the canvas look cluttered and makes it harder for both teachers and students to clearly view or reposition the selected items.

    Earlier, the selection experience was much cleaner. When using the lasso selection tool, only the blue dots appeared around the…

  6. The new update introduced a new pen menu. Unfortunately, the menu covers the first line of the first page of my notes. It's not possible to write something in this line without moving it manually later on. Please correct this or make the menu movable.

  7. Using Goodnotes in class, it would be important to have a presentation mode as in the iOS version, where only the notes and no user interface is screen casted.

  9. Hi GoodNotes team,

    I’m using GoodNotes for Windows (version …).

    The laser pen becomes blurry only in Whiteboard mode, while it works fine on normal pages.

    My GPU: AMD Radeon R2 540

    OS: Windows 10/11

    Please check if this is related to hardware acceleration or GPU rendering.

  10. Since the latest update, the only pen option is the fountain pen, which I have found really annoying to use - not sure why the biro feature has disappeared?

  15. Many Planners and templates use the IOS Shortcuts app to link to calendars, notes, chatgpt, etc. but this does not work on android devices. I would like to see a functionality in goodnotes that can take operations of the shortcuts app and redirect those actions to the corresponding applications on Android devices.

  16. Please can we have the ability to have the same subscriptions from iOS to Android/windows. I would like to be able to use Goodnotes across my various electronics because I love it and use it constantly on my iPad. But right now due to having the "Special Edition" subscription that is apparently "Only available on Apple platforms" I can't use my favorite note taking app on my windows computer.

  17. Can we please have more customizations for folders, pens/pencil, templates, etc?! It may or may not make goodnotes even more enjoyable for users.

    I would like to see more updates for more settings of pens and pencil, especially for our handwriting. It can make our handwriting much more better.

  18. Ich nutze GoodNotes schon länger und war anfangs sehr zufrieden, aber seit dem letzten Update hat die App auf Android und Windows deutlich an Qualität verloren.

    Die Ladezeiten sind sehr lang, besonders bei größeren Notizbüchern. Teilweise müssen Seiten mehrmals geöffnet werden, bis die Aufschriebe überhaupt angezeigt werden. Außerdem ist es nicht möglich, mehrere Dokumente gleichzeitig zu öffnen, was das Arbeiten und Vergleichen von Notizen erschwert.

    Ein weiterer großer Nachteil: Die Synchronisierung zwischen den Geräten funktioniert seit dem letzten Update deutlich schlechter. Notizen werden verspätet oder gar nicht geladen, und manchmal erscheinen Änderungen erst nach mehrmaligem Neustart.

    Insgesamt schade, denn die…

  19. Hey, I'm looking for an app where i can actually import pdfs and highlight using both the pen or the mouse (with straight highlighting not freed hand or where i can both draw, add images and so on Grow a Garden).

    I thought about goodnotes but it seems it's not pretty good on these 2 platforms. Another alternative would be liquid text but it's expensive as well.

    Do you guys have any idea? thanks!

  20. The infinite whiteboards could also have pages, like tabs, so we could group several related ones into a single board.
