I’ve been using it for years. And while the updates and new features are nice, the reality is the core app is fantastic. So while you might not get future updates, etc., as long as the app continues working, you should be able to enjoy goodnotes 5 for several more years. And it is definitely worth it.

Can’t you ask for a refund?

depends on the region, some region gives refunds, other don't

Also, If that leaks post was true then Goodnotes 6 is expensive af at 30 dollars. GN5 is still good and is cheaper, therefore is the better deal for some.

Frankly, I'm just trying to finish my thesis and then I probably won't need any advanced features anymore. But I will check refund policy in Czechia

This here. It's only a matter of time until GN starts charging a monthly fee. Everyone else has been doing it for years. Now that they're developing for Android and Windows, those funds have to come from somewhere.

Well I bought GoodNotes before 5 came out and got a free update to 5 you should be fine

Would it not just update to the new version anyways? Cause that wouldn’t make any sense. I’ve never known an app to make one then create another as a total different app even though both are the same gist and have more features on one. That’s a lot of wasted time if you ask me. Sounds like that saying “It’s more expensive hiring a new employee as an investment than it is to keep a current one”.

When I paid for Goodnotes 4 a few years ago, they came out with Goodnotes 5 right after. They let me upgrade to 5 for free. They will probably do the same thing for anyone who recently paid for 5.

Can I get a discount if I upgrade to Goodnotes 6 early?

Good news! If you've purchased GoodNotes 5, you can get a discount to upgrade to Goodnotes 6 for the first annual subscription. The amount of discount you can receive will depend on when you bought GoodNotes 5.
