  1. Hi!

    My feature request would be the inclusion of a new pen style, that would be dotted lines. The idea is to be able to set the separation between each dot as well as the length and thickness of each drawed dott.

    I hope you guys consider this.

  2. Please allow imported PDF documents that have hyperlinks to transfer to Windows like it does Apple iOS.

    I have made a digital planner which works perfectly across my Apple devices but my friend using the planner on her Windows Surface Pro cannot use the hyperlinked tabs etc.

  3. I understand that not all Features are working on Windows / Web / Android already. But as long as these Features don't work, please don't (try to) sync them. When I use tapes on my iPad and want to edit or view the document on my PC or in the Web, I can see the Tape, so not the Text under the tape, and I cant make the tape invisible. So the document is basically useless, because I can't see what's under the tape. So maybe, as long as the feature is not supported on other platforms tha iOS, please…

  6. On Goodnotes for android/windows, Existing hyperlinks are either removed or disabled from imported pdfs. Please fix this issue as it's very discouraging since it works on Goodnotes for Apple .. I was happy after I bought a Samsung tablet to know I would be able to use Goodnotes sine iPad are a bit pricey..I like Goodnotes but with this issue I can't really use any of my digital planners that I imported

  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.

  9. Currently, when adding a new page it duplicates the style from the page before. I would love to see something similar to the IOS Version, where you can either add a new page instantly or add a different type.
    Happy Holidays btw :)

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your ideas — we really appreciate the thought and effort behind them 🙏

    To help us review and prioritize feedback more effectively, we’re going to close this idea for now, as some of the features already live. It currently includes multiple suggestions, which makes it harder for us (and other users) to discuss, vote on, and track each one properly.

    If you’d like, please feel free to submit each idea separately, or add your vote to existing ideas that match what you’re suggesting. That really helps us understand what matters most to the community.

    Thanks again for sharing and for helping make the forum better!

  13. It would be nice if you could choose a new style for each page that you add to the existing notebook. For example: You chose blank pages for your notebook in the beginning but you need lined pages later.

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

    During the notebook creation, users have the option to choose from Goodnotes Standard, A7, A6, A5, A4, A3, Letter and Tabloid size.

    The same size options are also available in the landscape mode.

  15. Completely customizable UI. Types of pens, colours. Having the oppurtunity to customize the toolbar like in office apps, and changing the layout to the right side of the screen, the bottom, left, wherever.
