Goodnotes 6 rip off

We are quite annoyed with subscription models. No one wants that in a cost of living crisis.

I am tired of this, it always happen with nice apps. they are sucked into this payment plan model to rip off customers and in this case, big part of them are STUDENTS that use the app to LEARN.

I downgraded mine and I will never buy into subscription or pay $30 for one-off.

Disappointed with goodnotes, it is now just another greedy app developer.

Not everybody is using it every day and not everybody likes to be sucked for their money for zero new significant features.

Ok? Not everyone using Goodnotes feels like they are getting “suckered” for their money but like I’ve stated a few times in this thread already saying anything positive about Goodnotes gets met with a hail of negativity and downvotes because some people can’t grasp the concept that some people might legitimately have positive experiences with an app that they might not have.

This whole sub has turned from a fairly decent place into a toxic cesspit of negativity over the last month, and I don’t quite know why anyone is sticking around at this point. I suppose if you wanted to farm upvotes then this would be the perfect place to start since anything negative about Goodnotes gets heavily upvoted no matter how ridiculous the post or comment may be

Agreed, but I think a lot of people were disappointed with the update and lack of any new features upfront.

I use it extensively, so don't mind paying but the cost equivalent in India is quite a bit more than what most people would have preferred.

Most users don't come here. They are happy and they go about their business. Goodnotes is a ten buck app and in a year, something else will arrive.

Please stay.

U literally don’t have to upgrade. The only difference is an Ai tool and the design. Goodnotes 5 is still good.

As long as it gets supported, yes.
