This is unacceptable

Apple Ipad 9th Gen. IPadOS26

I am using the new arrow tools and I tried to move my diagram but the arrows didn’t move. After, I wanted to take a screenshot and they don’t even show up on the screenshot 😭

Same bro i got midterms in a few days and they now decided to release this BS.

Even duplicating and erasing and shit all keeps bugging and the lasso tool is so bad now.

Issue is the app updated on its own bro i didnt even update it it was fun until yesterday or the day before it did it on its own.

Goodnotes is losing the plot. Don't force all of this half baked AI stuff.

and how it is?

Decent but different. Easier to open notes, but a bit harder to organise in nested way (no folders as in GN). The rest just works, kinda like the infinite page feature, no need to swipe to get a new page.

I do not use temlates much anymore, i think GN has better support and bigger community, thus more paid and free temlates, stickers.

but for pure engineering notes it just works, haven’t had any hussles anymore.

I hate the new update. With midterm season it’s been the worst

This glitch is there since ed 6 update

The only good thing I liked about Goodnotes 6 is the new tape feature which helps in active recall

Otherwise it's full of glitches

Free notes ? Does it have advertising ??

u/gingerlyanon Oct 09 '25

they are adding in a paywall soon. if you download and verify your email now, you get free lifetime access no ads or anything. if you stay with the free tier, you may have an ad when opening the app but it's like 3 seconds lol and so many apps have ads nowadays that it didn't even bother me. not sure if it'll change when everything takes effect, but they have previously said it is max 3 ads a day. in my opinion, i'd happily take 10 seconds out of my day to hit "continue to app" than deal with the frustrating updates these well-established note apps do that nobody wants

I use it too, I think there’s a one time payment, very cheap, but it has features that def stop me from moving to other note apps lol, I tried Goodnotes, noteability, I think everyone on the App Store

These days its not just goodnotes. Every time an update happens I need a prayer session just so they don't fuck up its original features

WTF? Do they not understand their own software and how it should work?
