  2. 5 Mar 2023, I was not able to find a text tool. And I was not able to copy text from a webpage and past it into a note page in GoodNotes. If I'm missing something I am sorry. Is this feature just missing right now or am I missing something? Currently I am only using mouse and keyboard input... I'll connect my Wacom Intuos tablet and try again.

    Thanks so much for sharing your feedback so we can make Goodnotes better.

    We're excited to share that this feature was released as part of our Textbox tool feature.

    Here's how you can do it:

    Copy text from an external page. Open your Goodnotes document and create a textbox from the toolbar. Paste the content in the textbox.

    If you like the feature, please consider leaving a good review and sharing the new feature with your friends.

    Thank you,

    Thank you for your feedback. The feature has been implemented and is now live.

    Users have the option to export their notes in pdf file format.

    Let us know if you'd have any other feedback or feature request to improve the app.

  6. On samsung devices you can add files(primarily images here) via drag and drop, like on windows, I wish it worked here as well.

  7. Especially now that importing pdfs is available, it would be very useful to be able to copy and paste pages and/or move them within the notebook or between notebooks. For files such as planners, digital pdf notebooks or other documents, I need to be able to copy and paste different page templates at the end of the notebook to the beginning or the other way around. I hope you will be able to incorporate this into the Beta Version of the app.

    Thank you for considering my suggestion.

    Hello, thanks for your contribution.

    It’s already live — you can now type notes in two ways:

    1. In Notebooks or Whiteboards

    Use text boxes, which let you insert movable typing areas anywhere on the page. Details

    2. In Text Documents

    A new format designed specifically for typing, available starting today. You can type freely across the page and organize your content using blocks. Details

    Make sure your app is updated to the latest version to access these features!

  14. Be able to export PDF's from good notes Beta for windows would be extremely helpful and a perfect next feature to add that way students in highschool can print or submit documents

    We're excited to introduce support for circle and oval shape recognition with draw and hold. Now you can draw a circle or oval shape freehand and GoodNotes will automatically convert it into a perfectly shaped object.

    To use this feature, simply enable draw and hold in your advanced pen settings. Then, draw your circle or oval shape and hold your pen in place for a moment. Voila! Your shape will be recognized and turned into a perfect circle or oval.

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

  16. The ability to move pages between notebooks would be great, especially because the beta is limited in how many notebooks one can have. It would also be nice to be able to select and copy/paste notes from one notebook into another.

  17. The lasso tool allows you to move whatever you've circled. But I think that there could be a bit more use for the lasso, in my Journal Application that I use I'm able to Lasso tool and change them. Aside from moving the circled parts, I can also rotate and adjust the size of the words. If I zoom in or out the words would change sizes too. I think that this will help people write words and adjust them how ever they want to better fit the paper versus constantly rewriting words and hoping it will fit right.
