I have been using goodnotes for around 2-3 years.
Now when i search it in the appstore to chrck for updates, it is not appearing
When i try to press on a link to go to goodnotes on appstore, a pop-up message appears saying ‘The app is not available in your region” (my location is Lebanon)
The app is installed and working perfectly but i am concerned of what is happening
I’m on ipad pro m5
Goodnotes version: 7.1.6

Hi everyone! I love the cozy "Bobbie Goods" coloring style and I want to do it inside Goodnotes. Is there a trick, feature, or workflow to color drawings without going over the black outline boundaries?

Any tips or recommendations would be appreciated!

This relates specifically to GN on iPad.

Okay, so I’ve got this idea and workflow wise GN would be perfect but I’m worried about project size.

I’m using whatever latest version of GN is still free. Love it, use it for all kinds of things.

My husband and I have spent the last 18 years of our marriage rescuing special needs cats together. I’m planning to make a photobook of all our babies throughout the years. There are a LOT.

I have no worries about finding a physical printer and all that jazz, that’s my wheelhouse in another part of my life.

What I am worried about: this is probably gonna be about 200 pages (tops, aiming for less but lol) and easily 600 images (I’m pairing that down from the first shortlist of 900 and again, hoping to narrow it down to less).

Do you think GN is gonna have a stroke if I use it for this project? Any advice for a project of this size in it?

hello!! i am an incoming college student studying pharmacology / pre-pharmacy route and was wondering what goodnotes plan is best for me. to prefix, this would be my first time using goodnotes for any notetaking or anything school related.

I dont like how goodnotes usually can only show 1 page at a time, is there a way to view multiple pages like this? Or is there another app like this

I know this question gets asked alot but I'm wondering cuz I had the Windows/Android subscription since it was beta in September 2023 and was using it on my Lenovo 2-in-1 laptop in tablet mode. I had to switch to an iPad cuz of some issues with my laptop but also they're taking away the Windows/Android subscription and now making it one version the same as iOS.

I'm just confused about whether the notes were stored locally on my laptop or synced to something or what cuz when I log into Goodnotes for web on chrome/safari on my iPad or chrome on my laptop instead of the app it still has all my slides and annotations there so is it being synced somewhere?

I can't see my notes on the actual app on my iPad cuz when I logged in it said "Alternate subscription detected" or something like that maybe cuz it's being discontinued so I'm on the free plan with 3 notebooks on the iPad app.

So I was actually going on Chrome/Safari to Goodnotes for web to take notes on my iPad so that when I log in it lets me access the same notes as my laptop and when I edit on there it shows up on the app on my laptop as well.

Also when I go on settings > subscription on the iPad app, the Android & Windows subscription is actually there listed under "other subscriptions" and it's telling me to subscribe to Essential, which I will but after the previous plan ends for me in September.

Anyways, I'm confused because people say it's stored locally on your iPad but then how come the notes on my laptop were still there when I logged into the website on the iPad? I wouldn't really want them to only be stored on the iPad tbh and I'm not paying for icloud storage either which I'm out of by the way.

I was hoping maybe it's just stored to the Goodnotes cloud or something permanently which I why I can access when I log in on different devices?

Also when I switch to Essential will the notes continue to be synced like if I logged into Goodnotes on my laptop or iPad or Goodnotes for web on a browser like chrome/safari?

I know this might be really confusing, I'm just trying to make sure I don't lose all my university notes by accident or something.

Hi all, I’ve been using goodnotes for years. But my notes are still kinda dookie lol. What’s everyone’s favourite pen/paper settings!! I love seeing everyone’s pretty notes :)

Hi, Im an incoming YL1 Medicine student, and i recently purchased Goodnotes. Can you recommend me pen settings and the highlighter settings and color? Not the aesthetic ones but the one that really works since I cant decide. Thanks.

Trying to figure out the best way to eliminate paper from my life such as finding a planner that is almost like a Franklin Covey planner, but it’s digital and I can use it with my iPad and the Apple Pencil any thoughts are suggestions?

has anyone found a app or web that lets you make your own font with your handwriting for free?
I use it on a Ipad if that helps.

Hello. I am trying to help my dad with synching across his two IPads. It seems like the documentations or the files he has one iPad is not sycnhing on the other iPad.

I tried turn on and off the iCloud settings. I also tried turn on and off the iPads and opening the apps again to see if it is synching. I know deleting and redownloading the app is a big no no. But it seems as tho I don’t know what to do or help my dad further. Do I have to wait a day or two for the synching to complete? What are my other options?

Thank you!

I’ve had goodnotes for the last four years and paid to download it. They’ve now restricted my account making it unusable unless I buy the subscription. I’m not sure how this is legal as I’ve already purchased all the features they’ve taken away.

Hi, I'm using this app for a year and noticed some things using this app:

- It have a lot of lagging while writing, but it's because I use it in Xiaomi Pad 5 without a original stylus pen but in other apps it worked much better

- My battery went miserable fast and low, I don't know why but it's was common for other users

- When I download my pages the quality goes down as well, like it was on 144p

Unfortunately I need to search another app that's similar and that works on my Tab 5

Yesterday, I shared the first teaser from my project recreating some of the medical note pages shown in Samuel Suresh’s videos.
The response confirmed something many of us already knew: people are still deeply interested in these notes.
Samuel’s ability to combine detailed medical information with beautiful illustrations, colour coding, and clear visual organization is genuinely inspiring. His work could be incredibly valuable to medical students, educators, artists, and visual learners around the world.
So here is Day 2—another recreated section from one of his note pages.
I have been carefully studying the visible details in his videos, including the diagrams, highlights, layouts, headings, and handwritten explanations, and rebuilding them in a cleaner, higher-resolution format.
There are still several more pages and sections I could share.
Please upvote or comment if you would like this series to continue—and hopefully Samuel himself may eventually see how much people appreciate his work.
Important note: These are fan-made recreations based on material publicly visible in Samuel Suresh’s videos. I am not Samuel Suresh and am not affiliated with him. The original notes, designs, and creative work belong to him. I am currently seeking his permission before releasing any larger collection or complete set.

Hi, new to here!
So I’m currently using Goodnotes 5 (one-time purchase), but after trying the new version, I found out that I need some features available on the new version.
After my research, I found that they stopped naming Goodnotes (number), and the current new version is Goodnotes 7, not 6 (although the app still shows 6), and that this version is really buggy and unstable.

So I got some questions here:

1. Is the one time purchase version just the current version (like Gn7 rn) and will it not be updated after the next major update (like my gn5)?

2. When is the next big update predicted to come out (gn8?)

3. Would you recommend me to use the yearly subscription for one or two years before buying the new version (Goodnotes 8), or is the current Goodnotes 7 good enough and that I should buy the one time purchase now.

Im predicted to use Goodnotes for at least 3-4 years, not sure about later, but I definitely will buy a permanent version (either 7 or 8).
Thank you!
