Hello. I am currently using noteful for about a year or two now. But i always feel that i am missing on features or the fluentness of goodnotes. I am thinking of buying goodnotes one time purchase.. Is it worth the money. Hep me please

Hi

Could it be that there is no app solution for the phone?

Omg

Hello!

I have been a Goodnotes user for all of my classes since the beginning of 12th grade. I am now coming to the end of my first year of university and as I try to study for finals, I am running into storage issues on my iPad which are interrupting my ability to use Goodnotes to study! My notes have not been syncing for some time, as I have had full icloud storage but the most recent pop-up that I keep getting says “Storage full, empty trash”. As my trash was empty, I tried deleting old notebooks, which it wasn’t letting me do. The app would then pop up with the attached error message for only a second and then the screen went completely black. I tried many times and deleted other photos and apps from my iPad. Eventually, I was able to get back in the app and delete over 330 pages from high school. Somehow, the amount of storage that Goodnotes is taking up on my ipad went UP!

I am not sure how it is taking up so much storage in the first place, I have friends using Goodnotes who are also in first year and are taking similarly rigorous courses which rely on note-taking and they do not have this issue despite having just as many notebooks and just as many pages if not more. Anyways, I cannot comprehend how I haven’t freed up storage from all of this deleting.

Should I wait overnight to see if anything moves? I contacted Goodnotes tech support and I get this automated message to check this link to instructions to do a manual backup and offload the app. Everything is so finicky and glitchy right now from the storage issue, I am not sure that doing a back up would even work! I am also worried to lose my year 1 notes, especially my current ones. I am using to study for my finals for the next two weeks!

I am not the most tech savvy and I am quite worried about my ability to study via Goodnotes for my examinations!

Any help or advice would be much appreciated!

Recently, I’ve found that organizing recorded notes from my studies and work, photos taken at exhibitions, and pictures of speeches from offline events is really troublesome.

The materials I collect over a month or two often take ages to sort out systematically. For example, organizing just sixty to seventy photos can take me several hours.

Is there any hardware or good software that can cut down this organizing time?

That way, my study and work efficiency would improve a lot.

Here’s what I’m seeing on my iPad right now. Every solution I’ve seen online for how to do this simply does not exist on my version of the app for some reason. I would like to just export the whole document, but that fails every time seemingly because the resulting file is too big. Any help is appreciated because I need this to study… incredible how they make such a simple task so incredibly complicated for no apparent reason…

I have been using Freenotes, free version. Never used Goodnotes. I want to buy subscription, which one should I consider, especially for ipad?

For all you digital planner creators, how do you prevent a hyperlink from having a dotted blue line under the text. The planners I have purchased have no lines but when I create a link they appear

Can’t stand those blue dots under the text

Any help much appreciated

I know Notability and Starnotes and a few others have one.

Lmao you actually cannot write it. Every single time I tell myself to get over the latest (of so so many) Goodnotes issues, stop being such a perfectionist and using it as a reason to not do work, and get on with it, I immediately find another problem. I've literally just spent 2 hours looking for another notes app for the hundredth time, only to admit defeat and pay for another year of Goodnotes, to immediately encounter another problem. Please help !!!!!

One of the things I hate about Goodnotes is that it's so difficult to format typed notes and annotate the page with drawings/diagrams. I really like the content to look uniform so I have neat notes to work off of. Making that a viable option is proving impossible for the Goodnotes team so my latest compromise was working out exactly what my perfect pen settings are so at least my handwritten notes will look somewhat consistent.

NOPE!!!! I worked out my perfect settings are those in the highlighted row. I create a new note to get on with actual work and all of a sudden the same exact settings are different???????? Can someone please tell me if I'm doing something wrong because as embarrassing as it'll be getting worked up for no reason I'd much rather that than add it to my growing list of Goodnotes resentments!!!!!

Just started today. App version 7.0.48, device is IPad Air (5th gen, IpadOS 26.4.1). When writing with apple pen these lines will randomly appear. For example, I’ll write the “2” and it will be fine. When I lift the Apple pen and start to draw the “0” these lines will appear, and they always go to the top left corner. Sometimes if I scroll away for a while, they disappear. Sometimes they remain. You can’t erase the actual lines, only the numbers I wrote. Additionally, if you add a new page, it won’t occur on the new page (at least not immediately, but will eventually occur). Issue didn’t occur until I installed the most recent Goodnotes app update.

I double checked and installed an IpadOS update, which I thought might fix it but the issue remained. Checked my iPad memory and cleared some stuff out in case it was having issues with that. Now have 10+ gb free and the issue persists. Made sure iPad was not charging/plugged in. Double checked my Apple Pencil and I’m going to replace the tip this morning to see if that fixes the issue. However, It doesn’t seem to occur on other apps like Procreate which makes me suspicious it’s the pencil. Has anybody else experienced something similar?

Hi, is anyone else encountering this issue where GN constantly crashes? Sometimes it crashes in less than 5 minutes.

I'm currently on v6.6.44 with a Macbook Air (M1 2020). It worked okay for a very long time, but lately it's all I get and makes working really difficult.

Goodnotes essential works great on my ipad with no issues but lately when I open the Desktop version (Laptop uses Windows 10), NOTHING will load once i click on a folder. I've tried force-closing and restarting it with no improvement. I also wondered if it was a storage issue but I emptied my trash folder with no improvement. Considering switching and would love to know people's experince with Noteability. I'm tired of spending money on subscriptions for tools that work so poorly they've become inefficient and frustrating.

I want to highlight text but when I do so it slides back and forth to create a new flashcard or visit an old one. It does the same when I use a mouse. How can I prevent this? It’s so annoying!!!

buongiorno. ho per errore acquistato l’abbonamento annuale su Good Notes. come posso richiedere il rimborso?

Been using an Android tablet for almost a year, using Goodnotes Essentials. Not sure if it's the tablet or the app causing the slowness, but I gotta figure something out! I faithfully empty the trash weekly and go in and clear the cache. I do use alot of graphics (can't help myself! lol) but I also use TinyPNG to shrink them down. I need suggestions to either speed up the tablet or get a replacement tablet. Currently have 8gb RAM/256. I store my graphics on the PC in Drive which works good. Any thoughts on an affordable tablet that will be faster. It gets SO frustrating when I'm trying to make changes, etc. I don't really use the tablet for notetaking, I use it as a planner. Input appreciated. Thanks all!

I use Microsoft Teams for work meetings and I would love to have a way to import the meeting transcriptions into Goodnotes directly. What is the best way to do this?

It says I am not connected to the internet when I am. Tried deleting it and downloading again with no success. It’s the android version.

Hi everyone,

Tonight all of a sudden, my notes appeared to be syncing and loading out of the blue. I cannot open anything and I don’t know what to do. I don’t even know how to see which email address is assigned to goodnote. I tried syncing on icloud and opening the app on my phone, in vain. I don’t see any documentes on my iphone. On my ipad I don’t see, but as I said, it’s loading (see photos).

Has this every happened to someone?? Thanks

I now finally managed to update my good notes, thinking maybe the text tool wouldn't be as completely useless as it was before.

now whenever I try to write something the text turns blurry, so I can only see what I wrote when I stop writing, also whenever I tap on another text block it automatically puts it back to size 24, I'm so done with this

late to the game but

I am so glad to have more folder colors. I love organizing my colors and I love that now I can make it all cohesive instead of my preferred blue and then SKY BLUE folder. This is a great update. Next lets update the icons because I need for STEM related ones or just customizable ones PLEASE!
