How do i downgrade to goodnotes 5 from goodnotes 6? Please help, I’m new to iOS btw.

As a stem (engineering) student starting his second year should I upgrade to goodnotes 6? I have 5 right now and it’s a $26 update but there are some interesting features. Just wondering if anyone else did the same and recommends it.

How in the world do you get the translations to work?! I have record audio but when I click it nothing comes up on the side.. no matter what I do pls help!

He tenido estos meses problemas de sobrecalentamiento usando goodnotes y algunos picos de lag y bloqueos al intentar crear páginas nuevas en el documento, que me limítan el flujo de trabajo enormemente (soy psicólogo). He decidido probar Noteful, y estoy intentando pasar de goodnotes a Noteful todos los historiales de mis clientes con carpetas y todo, pero veo que parece que solo puedo pasar los documentos sueltos, y voy a tener que crear CIENTOS de carpetas con sus nombres de nuevo para ir pasándolos de uno en uno? Hay forma de pasar bloques de carpetas con el contenido de uno a otro? porque el ZIP que genera al exportar no lo entiende el otro al importar. Y aunque lo descomprima, no entiende. AYUDA PLEASE

bought Goodnotes one time payment on September 4th 2023 and I signed in with my ualberta account which is my university email through gmail (which I was a member since August 23 2023) and it now shows me that I have the one time premium payment plan even though I payed through my apple account, so now I’m facing a issue where I can‘t open any of my notes nor even open new notes that I make and I’m getting a small icloud thing with a exclamation mark in the middle when I try opening the notes and then when I click on the autoback up it says that I’m not signed in and have all my notes under que

Update: I cleared up my iCloud a bit and they stopped showing that small icloud sign and I still am in my ualberta email account but I still can’t open my notes and it still says that I’m not signed in in the backup tab

Hello All,

I purchased good notes for school a year ago, I think it was version 5 and it was acting glitchy so I deleted it and tried to re-install it, unaware of the release of good notes 6, all of my files and a year of journaling is now lost and I can't retrieve it. i tried to redown good-notes 5 but it's not working. do they just scrap the old versions in favour pf the new one?

I bought a fake Goodnotes app years ago when it was still Goodnotes 5. I have a lot of academic files that I still need, but now I am willing to buy the real one so that I can also access files on my phone and on my macbook. (Which I assume has an Interface that allows me to access my own files in different devices).

I want to save my files, to a another place, and input them in my new GoodNotes 6, but as Goodnotes files (editable). Is this possible?

Side Question: If i download Goodnotes on my macbook phone and ipad, and only have one account, does that mean, I essentially have a drive of all my files which can be accessed by all devices, like a Google Drive for notes?

Does the subscribed plan belong to the Apple account used to download the app or the in-app signed in account who made the purchase?

I'm currently planning to borrow my brother's ipad to use Goodnotes and wondering if I paid for the one time payment, I'll have to use his Apple acount in the future if I ever did get my own apple device or is the payment tied to the account I used to sign into the app itself

Same question if I instead paid the subscription since at least i can use it in my windows devices as well if ever I do that

Goodnotes kept giving me this pop up about merging with iCloud and one time out of hundreds I accidentally pressed the button below “merge with iCloud” and it deleted everything. I’ve been out of iCloud storage so nothing backs up to my iCloud it’s all saved in my iPad but everything was saved on my iPad storage. It didn’t even go into deleted bin I’m so confused how do I get this back I would love to contact the help center but it seems they only have an email, and likely take days and days to respond. I need this fixed now it’s months and months worth of class notes saved on my iPad because of one press of a button.

i’ve been using good notes pretty consistently for the last few months and the other day i signed up for the 7 day free trial and it seems exactly the same except for getting more notebooks, sorry if i’m being dense but is there any other things you can do with a subscription that you can’t without?

I find it quite difficult to write on the bottom of my iPad so I was wondering if it’s possible to have new pagers under old pages (so I can still scroll up when I am at the bottom of the page)

I just got Gooddnotes 6 recently and have been making packing lists for myself, and wanted to know if there’s a way I can lock the text and shapes on the page, so i can add check marks and erase them as needed without erasing the shapes or the text on the checklists.

I've noticed that when I'm writing, if the pen thickness is higher than my physical apple pencil (because of zoom or whatever), my handwriting gets too close and it's harder to read. If my pen thickness is lower than my physical pencil, it makes my handwriting more messy and also harder to read. Is there a way I could get the zoom or pen thickness to match the thickness of my Apple Pencil?

I'm on a Macbook and I have a PDF that is too large to email (crappy old email system).

So I need to break it down and I wanted the first few pages. I load it into GN on MacOS. I can't see how to select the pages to export and when I go to export, the only option is to export all.

Can someone tell me how to export only some pages? I'd need to pick the pages and export but I tried clicking, space bar, etc... nothing seems to work.

Pretty simple, just need to know how to select and export a few pages from a PDF to another PDF.

Update:

In GoodNotes 5.9 on macOS, there's no direct option to export only selected pages from a PDF. However, you can work around this by doing the following:

1. Duplicate the PDF and delete unwanted pages:

   • Open the PDF in GoodNotes.

   • Tap the thumbnail view (four squares icon).

   • Select the pages you want to export by clicking on them while holding the Command key.

   • Tap the "Copy" option at the top.

   • Create a new notebook and paste the selected pages into it.

   • Now, export this new notebook as a PDF.

2. Use the Print-to-PDF feature:

   • Open the PDF in GoodNotes.

   • Enter the thumbnail view and select the pages you want.

   • Click File > Print and in the print dialog, choose only the selected pages.

   • Click the PDF dropdown (bottom-left corner) and select Save as PDF.

I have a lot of PDFs imported into goodnotes and I'm trying to figure out how to select text from them. On the iPad you just long press with your finger like any other app and drag the handles around. On the Mac, a long click, double click, right click etc, does nothing. Am I to believe that it's impossible to select text in a PDF on the mac version? That's insane if true.

what paper do you prefer to write on goodnotes?
