    We’re excited to announce that we have completed this feature. It is now available in the update GoodNotes 5.3 for iPadOS (13.1).

    With the update, we added full support for iPadOS’ multiple windows. It lets you do much more than viewing two documents side by side. To read everything you need to know about opening multiple documents, please visit goodnotes.com/ipad-os.

    How to open a new window:

    You can now open GoodNotes in multiple windows to view two documents side by side, view two pages of the same document in Split View, or pair it with other apps in spaces across your entire system. To open a new window, drag any of the elements listed below to the side of your screen:

    *From the suggester of this feature*

    Three things:
    1) This is a super roundabout way of doing this and is not what I meant when I suggested this simple feature 6 years ago. If we can’t turn a page like we would when turning a page in a book, it defeats the purpose. Used by a musician on stage, they need to be able to turn both pages in view with one gesture or they will suddenly be caught without the right page. You haven’t added the feature I suggested.

    2) Good Notes 5 is behind yet *another* pay wall. Users who have been loyal to Good Notes since prior to version 4 will remember having to repurchase the app once already. The same is true of Good Notes 5. However, offering a $1.00 update bundle softens this downside.

    3) At this point, musicians or people serious about score study and fluid workflow should just go to ForScore. It may be $14, but you won’t be punished for being a loyal user by being charged for updates that don’t add significant features.
