  1. It's a bit annoying, to see the cursor of the pencil while writing. Otherwise there seems to be a short delay between input and output while writing with the pencil.

  2. I have a Galaxy Tab S7. When pressing its stylus button, instead of changing to eraser mode, it starts drawing (It draws even if I'm only hovering the stylus over the screen)

  3. 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…

  5. Backup to other clouds then Dropbox should be possible, e.g. via WebDAV, for privacy reasons and for entertaining bigger databases of notes and documents in goodnotes.

  7. When I open a document and scroll with one finger it draws. When I tap with my stylus (spen) on the paper and then use my finger to scroll, it works and doesn't draw anymore.
    So basically to get palm rejection I need to tap my stylus on the paper.

    Maybe it's better to have a dedicated palm rejection button in a settings menu.

  9. A pencil effect and the ability to change the opacity of a tool would allow for better diagram drawing.

  11. It'd be great if we could use an email account, like we do on the IOS versión with icloud, to sync our notebooks (and folders) throughout all our devices, for example a google acount.
    It would be even better if we could use the same acount on IOS so that we could sync our non apple laptops with our ipads.

  12. Ich fand es richtig cool, dass es endlich GoodNotes für Windows gibt und habe mich sehr gefreut. Für den Anfang ist es ein passabler Start, aber mit viel Luft nach oben, vor allem wenn man GoodNotes schon von Apple Geräten kennt.
    Was ich sehr schade finde und was dringend benötigt wird, ist die Funktion, dass man seine Aufschriebe auch als PDF speichern kann. Das ist vor allem für Studenten wichtig, denn wenn man Aufgabenblätter abgeben muss, muss man diese auch speichern können.
    Außerdem gibt es weder die Funktion, dass es Linien, Kreise und andere Formen erkennt, noch dass man sowas…

  13. My cursor covers up half of the word I'm writing. Would be nice to have the option to hide the cursor, or at the very least have something like Microsoft OneNote where they change the cursor to a little dot.

  17. Improve the handwriting recognition speed. Currently the pen feature will lag behind writing unless you write slowly, and this leads to very messy handwriting.

  18. It would be great to be able to work together on a notebook, document or memo. This makes it easier in school and university to write down the content of a group work, because everyone can work on the document. So once everyone can participate and secondly, afterwards everyone has the document, so you don't have to upload it somewhere else to share.

  19. You could make an embedding on every page or even on every notebook. Or an empty embedding, such as for Notion, so that you can also use GoodNotes well in Notion.
