  1. Tool to insert space between two lines afterwards

    It would be great if a tool could be created
    This is helpful when you make notes and want to add something afterwards, but the space is not available. So you can select everything that is below the place where you want to add something and move the selection down. If the page runs out, the content is not lost, but is visible on the next page. If there is already content on the next page, a page is optimally inserted in between so that no content is lost. Analogously, the other direction would be optimal, in which you can…

  2. Move selection to next page

    It would be great if you could move the selection directly to a next page and the selection does not disappear "behind" the next page. This is helpful when you make notes and want to add something afterwards, but the space is not available. This way you can select everything that is below where you want to add something and move the selection down. If the page runs out of space, the content will not be lost, but will be visible on the next page. If there is already content on the next page, it is best to insert a…

  3. Stop developing for Windows as a Web app

    Making GoodNotes for Windows a Web app by simply dumping it through Swift to WASM immediately makes the app use significantly more resources and hinders the overall experience and battery life, causing pen inputs to have a significant delay and require online connectivity, etc. This kind of experience is NOT what you would want your users on an ipad to use, so why Windows?

    Like you did for iOS, please make GoodNotes for Windows a native Windows App instead of a PWA. This mess is NOT the path your team should be going down.

  4. Füllfederhalter und Kugelschreibener

    der Unterschied zwischen den beiden könnte genauer sein. Ich persönlich sehe keinen Unterschied und damit auch keinen Vorteil für den ein oder andere Stift

  5. Passer au format UWP

    Bonjour,
    Good Notes fonctionne actuellement sur MS Edge. C'est une très mauvaise idée, sur Windows vous avez plusieurs possibilités :
    - sous la forme d'un programme classique (mais problème de mise à jour)
    - sous le format UWP (avantage des mises à jour automatiques via le Microsoft Store et d'une bonne stabilité)
    - sous le format APK avec Windows Android Sub System (sur le long terme plus rentable mais peut rencontrer quelques ralentissements)

    Pour moi, le choix UWP est le plus adapté. Avec MS Edge, en absence de connexion internet, il est impossible de faire une prise de note.
    Par…

  6. Page layouts to the left of the screen take up too much space

    I am using a surface go and it has a small screen about the size of a piece of paper. When I take handwritten notes I rotate the tablet and it turns the computer into tablet mode. In tablet mode, the section on the left, which displays the pages, is much too big and hides a good portion of the page. In landscape mode, laptop mode, I can see the full width of the page. I think the issue could be solved by minimizing this feature.

  7. Gestures

    For example, if you cross a handwritten word out, it deletes it automatically. Underlining words creates a headline. Or if you draw a star, it marks the position. This feature already exists in Microsoft Journal.

  8. Pen pressure

    When I'm writing on my convertible laptop with a pen I can't change the setting of the pressure. I would like to have the option to disable it so all of my letters would be the same thickness.

  9. Allow copy pasting of handwritten content from other hand writing apps

    I've been using Microsoft Whiteboard since it was released and wish to have a way of copying the handwritten content there in here!

  10. Visibility

    Being able to see the pages compared to the background of the notes, to have the option of changing the background colour so we are able to see white paper against the white background, or there be a clear border to denote when the page ends.

  12. Save the pen colors together with the worksheet

    Hello dear developers,
    I always work with different templates.
    When I work with the black template, I always have to laboriously switch the pen colors.
    Is it not possible to save the pen colors together with the worksheet?

    Furthermore, more sheet colors would be nice, e.g. gray, red and green.
    I am aware that I could create my own templates. But most of the time the grid does not fit.
    Why not do it the same way as with the pens, that the background color can also be chosen from a color table?
    Many greetings Ernst

  17. Ability to reject palm while writing with stylus pen (palm rejection)

    I've been used 'Drawboard PDF' application, but hand writing was almost unavailable because of the absence of palm rejection function.
    So, I think it will be profitable to add palm rejection function on GoodNotes' Window version.

    needs more information  ·  AdminGoodnotes (Moderator, GoodNotes) responded

    Hi there! We do currently support palm rejection feature. Have you experienced any circumstances where any of your palm touches were recorded as input? If so, please provide us with more details so that we can look into why it's not working/

  18. More tools would be amazing!

    Using stamps/emojis would be nice, along with having an option to use dot points to make note taking easier. A ruler would be a must have for myself as I like to structure my page a certain way when studying. Maybe adding a stabiliser tool to make lines stiffer when writing.

  19. Auto switch ink colors according to theme

    Switching between dark background/light pen to light background/dark pen when changing between Night and Day mode. OneNote has a similar function and it saves my eyes when taking notes
