  1. When inserting a new page and rotating it, if you write something and you wish to move it, the lasso does select the text but when trying to move it, it moves it in the opposite diagonal direction. And when you want to rescale the text, you just can't the anchor cannot be grabbed.

  5. It would be great if we can copy and paste the selected elements by lasso select. Also, there is something I didn't like about the lasso select which is that every time I enable it by the stylus button it stays on and if you want to change it you will have to select the pen or something else manually, and I think it should be off automatically like OneNote and other apps.

    Custom Template feature is live and available to all Goodnotes for Android, Windows, and Web users.


    Kindly go to Setting -> Manage Notebook templates -> Edit at the top right corner to add your custom covers and notebook templates.

  7. A shape tool should be added just like the one in the iPad. (When you hold at the end of the stroke it crates the shape)

    🎉 NEW FEATURE ALERT! 🎉

    GoodNotes for Windows and Android just got even better! We're thrilled to introduce a brand new dedicated shape tool in the toolbar that will make drawing shapes a breeze. As you draw GoodNotes will convert your drawn line into a shape automatically!


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

  8. 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.

    You can tap the Eraser tool twice to access its settings: 


    • Standard: The tool erases a small segment of a continuous stroke.
    • Stroke: The tool erases an entire continuous stroke.
  11. It would be great if things such as pen thickness/type, colour etc, could be changed when you circle handwriting with the lasso tool, like you can with OneNote

    Thank you for your feedback and patience.


    We have now introduced Auto-Deselect feature in the eraser.

    Once you erase your strokes, you'd be switched back to the previous tool.


    We have also released Scribble to Erase feature, using which you would be able to erase your strokes even more efficiently.


    Do give it a try!
