    Thank you for the suggestion.

    This is in our roadmap. In the meantime, we recommend using the Copy & Paste page feature as a workaround to have a similar result.

    We understandable that this is not the most efficient solution, but please know we are working towards brining the "move" feature in our Android & Windows app.


    Thank you,

    The Goodnotes Team

  2. Hello,

    It would be nice when you could change the template of the study set flascards. Just like in a normal textbook with the same standard options, like the three colors and grid, lined and others.

    English is not my first language. Sorry for spelling or grammar mistakes. My mother tounge is german.

  3. iPadOS에는 이미 있는 기능인 프레젠테이션 모드가 안드로이드에도 왔으면 좋겠습니다. 저는 그것이 굿노트의 가장 핵심적인 기능이자 가장 많이 사용하고 가장 많이 사용될 기능이라고 생각합니다.

    /

    I wish the presentation mode, a feature already available on iPadOS, would come to Android as well. I think that is the most core feature of Goodnotes and the feature that is used and will be used the most

  7. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    as a user coming from iOS and switching to Android, I noticed many differences that make it significantly harder to maintain a consistent workflow. The most serious of these is the loading time when switching between pages or opening a large document imported from GoodNotes iOS.
    Switching from the web to a native app version of GoodNotes would of course be ideal, but doesn't seem to fit your current business strategy. However, the most logical alternative would be to implement an offline mode in which users can easily download documents locally — allowing instant switching between page…

  8. I would like to report an issue with spell check in Text Files.

    Currently, spell check does not work reliably: words are often incorrectly highlighted, suggestions are missing or inconsistent, and, in some environments (e.g. Chrome), spell check and extensions do not work at all.
    This makes it difficult to catch spelling mistakes while taking notes.
    This issue may be related to the current WebView-based editor.

  10. On Android, navigating between pages in a long document currently requires a two-finger swipe gesture. Across documents of 30–50+ pages, this becomes physically fatiguing and interrupts the writing/reading flow.

    Request: Add persistent on-screen buttons (next page / previous page) that allow single-tap navigation between pages. These should remain visible at all times during document view, without requiring the toolbar to be active. An optional toggle to show/hide them in Settings would also be useful for users who don't want the UI clutter.

  11. 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

  12. Moving documents between folders is a basic feature in any app for efficient sorting and management, the feature should have been in the basic build.

  13. 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 located

  14. The UI is becoming somewhat cluttered, and in particular, various AI controls (which I don't and will never use) are becoming somewhat intrusive. It would be great to have an option to disable these to clear the UI up a little.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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…

  18. When writing by hand in GoodNotes—especially while recording audio and taking notes at the same time—I frequently experience severe lag.

    Because of this lag, when I try to write quickly and draw curved strokes, the app does not follow my pen movement in real time. Instead, the handwriting is rendered as a straight line connecting the starting point and the ending point of the stroke, as if the curve information is lost.

    This behavior is very disruptive during fast note-taking, particularly in lectures or meetings where recording and handwriting must happen simultaneously. It breaks the natural flow of handwriting and…

  19. Like the Apple version.... True calendar integration. It is now common on other applications. What goes on Google Calendar shows on Good notes and vice versa.

  20. 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.
