  1. I think this is already a feature on Goodnotes for Apple but can you guys make it possible to copy and paste from one notebook to another notebook on Goodnotes for Windows as well because right now it's only possible to copy and paste between pages within one notebook and the lasso tool is "refreshed" when you open a different notebook and doesn't remember what you copied on the previous one it would be really appreciated if you could make this feature ASAP thanks

  4. Regarding the "open document in web" option, I would like that instead of having to copy the link and paste it in the web browser (which for windows users is very annoying since they have to type the link in a random place to being able to paste it to the windows pc browser), being able to directly log in from the windows "goodnotes" web. So there is no need to copy or paste the link and it is more secure.

  5. when selected with lasso tool, we should also be able to edit the draw color along with just cut , copy, paste and resize.

    Please add this feature. That would put good notes in one of the top apps for note taking.

  6. When using GoodNotes for a planner function, a feature allowing us to jump from one page to another without having to scroll through every page would be ideal. Also along the same lines, the ability to set bookmarks on documents so we can easily jump to those pages.

  7. I'm having a little issue with constantly having to undo because the slightest touch creates pen marks or drawings. It would be nice to have the touch sensitivity feature that iOS does because I currently use a Microsoft surface pen to draw and not my finger or another similar stylus. I know you can use 2 fingers to move the screen, but in the iOS version, it isn't necessary. I would love to see this update included!

    Happy to announce that we've introduce a new toggle under advanced pen options to connect or disconnect stylus. This will ignore finger touch as drawing input when connected to stylus. Give it a try and let us know if it solves the issue that you faced.


    Thank you for your feedback and keep em coming. We are actively monitoring this forum to know what to work on next.

  8. The ability to create custom page templates to use in the notebooks. Also, need to be able to change templates to accommodate what we want with out changing ones we already have in notebooks.

    Custom Template feature is live and available to all Goodnotes for Android, Windows, and Web users.


    Kindly go to Setting -> Manage Notebook templates -> Edit at the top right corner to add your custom covers and notebook templates.

  9. When inserting a new page and rotating it, if you write something and you wish to move it, the lasso does select the text but when trying to move it, it moves it in the opposite diagonal direction. And when you want to rescale the text, you just can't the anchor cannot be grabbed.

  12. It would be great if we can copy and paste the selected elements by lasso select. Also, there is something I didn't like about the lasso select which is that every time I enable it by the stylus button it stays on and if you want to change it you will have to select the pen or something else manually, and I think it should be off automatically like OneNote and other apps.

    🎉 NEW FEATURE ALERT! 🎉

    GoodNotes for Windows and Android just got even better! We're thrilled to introduce a brand new dedicated shape tool in the toolbar that will make drawing shapes a breeze. As you draw GoodNotes will convert your drawn line into a shape automatically!


    We're gradually rolling out the update.  Refresh your GoodNotes for Windows app or restart your Goodnotes for Android app to today.

  15. Please this is important for digital planner, it's inconvenient to have only the vertical scrolling of the pages :/

    Thanks for submitting the feedack! Stroke eraser is already supported. 


    You can tap the Eraser tool twice to access its settings: 


    • Standard: The tool erases a small segment of a continuous stroke.
    • Stroke: The tool erases an entire continuous stroke.
  17. It would be great if things such as pen thickness/type, colour etc, could be changed when you circle handwriting with the lasso tool, like you can with OneNote

    Thank you for your feedback and patience.


    We have now introduced Auto-Deselect feature in the eraser.

    Once you erase your strokes, you'd be switched back to the previous tool.


    We have also released Scribble to Erase feature, using which you would be able to erase your strokes even more efficiently.


    Do give it a try!
