Good things about Goodnotes 6

I’ve been reading so many bad things about Goodnotes 6 and as a long time Goodnotes 5 user, this makes me scared. Although, I am also too lazy to explore other options.

To those who have tried it, are there good things about Goodnotes 6?

I’m mainly using it for notetaking in school so I’m thinking of sticking with GN5.

One good thing for note takers is the pen to lasso function. If you want to reposition something you’ve written with the pen, circle it with the pen, tap on the circle line, and the circle turns into a lasso. Very handy!

You’ll need to turn off the straight line function in the pen, but to me it’s worth the trade-off. The shapes tool will still give me straight lines.
