Spell check on written documents
Currently when working with documents any spelling errors are highlighted however there is no option to quickly fix the errors without respelling the word. What I am suggesting is something similar to how spelling errors are handled in Word.

[Text Doc] Custom Formatting Breaks Flow
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…

wanted to use great features in japanese actually
I noticed that although 'Handwriting Search' and 'Handwriting-to-Text' are listed as features on the Japanese version of the site, Japanese is not actually available in the settings. It feels a bit misleading to promote these features on a localized page if the language itself isn't supported.

Save a default Text Box style
Add the ability to permanently change textbox format settings
Ex: select font size, color.
I am tired of having to open a new text and change it every time to a different font/color.1 vote -
Search for text from all documents
I would like the ability to search across all documents, not just within a single file.
For example, if I search for a specific word like “rockxgr” and I don’t know which document contains it, the system should return all document(s) where that text appears.
In short, a global search feature that scans all documents and identifies where the specified word or phrase is located0 votes -
Save Button
I know things autosave, but sometimes new things I write does not and then I lose all the things I wrote notes for my classes.
To help be more precise for users to know for sure their new edits are saved before closing, add a "SAVE NOW" button!! to prevent any of these issues.

Chapters within notebooks
Form uni I know that chapters are possible for IOS. Sadly I had to realize that they don't exist for the windows app which makes the notebooks less organized and you can't jump directly to the page. Hyperlinks within the notebooks would also be a nice feature.

Audio Transcription for Windows and Android
Please give windows users on-device transcripts. It's incredibly unfair and outrageous that only apple users can have unlimited on-device transcriptions while windows users have to pay extra for cloud transcriptions. This is so deeply upsetting that I'm considering switching to a different service.

Forced Trial Activation and Lack of Document Formatting Flexibility
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.

Add more and consistent Animations to the Goodnotes UI
At the moment, the interface feels noticeably static because most UI elements lack animations. This includes interactions such as opening menus, triggering pop‑ups, switching tools, or navigating between sections. The absence of motion feedback makes the app feel less polished and less responsive especially compared to the iPad and macOS versions.
Introducing simple, consistent, and minimalistic animations across the UI would significantly improve the overall user experience. Even subtle transitions—such as smooth fades, slides, or scale effects—can make interactions feel more intuitive, modern, and cohesive. These animations don’t need to be complex; they just need to provide visual continuity and…

No more trouble starting
It now takes so much time for the app to start that I avoid using it. I tested it out and it took around 30 seconds to show my files or the last page opened. It does not seem a lot but during classes, presentations or explanations it can be very frustating

New Features
I love the writing experience on Goodnotes! However, as a Math student on Android, I’m disappointed that we lack the math converter and custom font support available on iOS. It also feels unfair that we don’t have a one-time payment option. Please bring feature parity to Android so all users can enjoy the same professional experience. Keep up the good work 🤩

On/Off Grid
A toggleable (on/off) grid would make writing on imported PDFs much easier.
The Zoom Window helps only in small areas, and handwriting often becomes uneven when looking at the whole page.
A page‑wide grid would keep both handwriting and shapes aligned.Additionally, a dot‑grid would be especially helpful because it guides writing without being too visible.

Split screen on Android and Windows
Hello Goodnotes team,
I'm an Essential plan user on Goodnotes 6 for Android and I really appreciate your app. However, I would like to suggest adding a "split screen" feature to the Android app.
This feature would allow users to open and use two or more documents (from the same Goodnotes app) simultaneously on the same screen, which would greatly improve productivity, especially when taking notes and comparing documents.
Given that this feature of opening documents in a new window already exists on iPadOS, it would be fair to extend it to all users of the app.
Thank you in…

Resize text boxes more intuitively
It would be great if creating text boxes felt more flexible.
For example, when holding a modifier key (such as Left Ctrl), it should be possible to draw a text box directly in any size by dragging.Additionally, if the text inside the box becomes too large to fit, the font size should automatically decrease so the text always stays within the fixed dimensions of the box.
This would prevent the text box from resizing itself and keep the layout consistent.1 vote -
Pin folders as tabs
It would be great if entire folders could be pinned to the tab bar.
This would allow quick access to frequently used collections of notebooks without having to open each document individually.1 vote -
Ability to reorder tabs
It would be very helpful to rearrange the tabs of open notebooks via drag and drop.
Right now, I sometimes open several notes in the wrong order and have to close and reopen them to get them sorted properly. Flexible tab ordering would remove this extra step and make working much easier.2 votes
