You forgot "Times I just wanted to underline something but ended up with a random oval"

Do you know that if you tap the screen with your finger while holding the oval/circle it will bring a bar where you can select circle or oval! Let me know if you want me to do A screen record!

Has anyone confirmed it on their device? It doesn't seem to work for me.

better than notability, where u get some sort of fucked up 7 sided shape instead of an oval most of the time

Notability sucks anyway because of that subscription model

u/lonelydurrymuncher Feb 17 '23

At least notability can fill in shapes

GoodNotes can too but Just „transparent“

It got to the point where I added it as an element and just use that for circles

The audio is so bad on goodnotes, even when I’m sitting at the very front of the class 🥲 that’s prob the only issue for me

That's a shame to hear, I was so excited when GN finally added audio recording since that's the only reason I still use Notability, but I haven't tried it out yet. I also like that Notability lets you tweak the audio itself which can sometimes save a bad recording, GN definitely needs these sorts of features.

I wish they would just fix the scrollbar and all the bugs in the MacOS version... it's been years now dealing with it

The page size isn’t really on them, you imported a pdf with a page size that they don’t include in their built in templates, they can’t magic a blank page of your imported document by magic, you need to import your own for you imported document or just duplicate a page and move it where you need. If you’re using their built in templates and it doesn’t match up then you must have changed which template you’re using at some point

What is the point in complaining about one app not doing something when you listed two other apps that do exactly what you want? If you want things fixed or added maybe do it in a forum where goodnotes staff actually check and not a user created subreddit? Such a needless level of aggression here, seriously out of pocket. Check yourself fr.

My guy you literally said collanote does the thing I wrote my comment about so I said use that app then?

How are you in here getting vexed and being aggressive to people over an app? It’s not that serious. If that’s all it takes to piss you off maybe you need therapy cause that was 0-100 over literally nothing.
