Goodnotes 6 App Reviews

Great app, love it and using it every day.

ths one is my favorite note taking app. I use it for everything in my life! I love how I can save soemthing on my phone and seconds later I can open it on my ipad to modify. The syncing feature is flawless. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I wish it had password protection. Using it as a journal would be amazing. I refuse to use anything as a journal that I can't password protect. I have seen people asking for years to have that featute added.

All I really have to say is…… I LOVEEE THIS APP SOO MUCH. it’s so useful, and I’ve only been using for a couple days, great for note taking, designing, word thought, journaling, school, work. In general it’s just a PERFECT APP!❤️❤️❤️

Best app to use for my company can send can send multiple files and pictures in one pdf file best app in the App Store

I love this app and the organization it allows me to do. One thing I would like added (but is not a hinder to my experience) are lines on the Flashcard page. Almost like the flashcards my mom used to buy me for middle and high school. Other than that, I love it! Thank you.

I love the app just needs new items such as maybe align and lock button.

I have used this app for college, personal life, learning Chinese and creating storyboards for filmmaking. You can organize your notebooks, the templates for the pages are amazing, the features you can use on your Apple Pencil are just magical. I’m not kidding, I recommend this app to all my friends from collage. I haven’t owned a physical notebook since I bought this app. This is a game changer, specially if you have an iPad. ⭐️

The new flashcards stack system is perfect. Thank you 🙏. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I love this and suggest it to all my friends, though I do wish the way pages scrolled could be saved by document. I have a notebook I use for work but the pages scrolling messed me up so I set it on horizontally flipping. Yet a couple journaling books I have it’s easier to keep reading and writing if it scrolls vertically. I’m between both several times daily and I have to keep changing it back and forth.

The app is overall great and I’ve been using it for years. However, not a fan of the newest selecting feature. I take notes over text box a lot, and recently found it difficult. When I’m trying to write on top of text box, the text got selected and moved. And for some reason undo will not move the text back to its original place. Then I have to zoom out and try to move and align with previous handwritten notes. This isn’t really user friendly. Can we have a switch to turn off this selecting fe

This app makes my life so much easier. It is so convenient and it makes me a much more organized person.

Learning to use it instead of other note taking apps I’ve tried. Thank you for creating this!

its crazy how much easier school is because of this app

Excellent App I love it. I can type or write with my Apple Pencil. heart ♥️ What do I use to hand write ✍️ on my phone? Apple Pencil works only on iPad.

App works well but make sure that your notes are being backed up regularly. The app crashes from time to time and everything will erase permanently if they're not backed up through iCloud or in your files.

If you use this app to import lecture notes, then make text boxes, paste images etc.. prepare for it to crash multiple times per day. Thankfully the document seems to save progress but simply pasting an imagine can become a 2 minute ordeal with no rhyme or reason. Sometimes you create a text box and it appears but you type and nothing happens. Sometimes you paste and an image doesn't appear, or appears on another page, and may be the size of your nail or the size of half the page.

Is a good app for taking notes and planning diy projects.

I use Goodnotes for literally everything productive and digitized. I have tried every other app, and they do not compare to Goodnotes and its features.

This is a great app to use for note taking; however, if you accidently cut/ delete something on your notes there's not really a way to undo it(on mac)

十分希望能有录音功能

I have only been using this app for like 30 min and I absolutely love it ! I like how you can customize your color and add pics from your iPhone to your notes. I am very pleased with this app and I usually do not leave a review but this app deserves a review! I will definitely will be using this in nursing school.

Embedded hyperlinks in a pdf do not work with GoodNotes 6 on an iPad.

Hi GoodNotes Team, I love the app. There is one feature that I would like to request. A way to browse through files and folder without going all the way back and leaving the document that I am currently working on. This is because once I go back - I have to either open the same file or a different file to be able to start working again. An optional side panel to browse through folders and files would be immensely helpful.

I paid for both the mobile & desktop versions so I could easily switch but they are RARELY in sync. I waste a lot of time trying to get my notes from one device to show up on the other. Frustrating. Otherwise it's great.

I have 2 requests to make this app even better. Being able to type in a notebook page as you would a Word document. Sometimes, text-boxes can be awkward. Having up to 3 text styling defaults. I color-code & font-size code my notes by what I hear the lecturer say while in class & what I read from the book. I have to constantly change colors and make that the default for separate slides. Being able to view pages side-by-side, two to a slide for more efficient annotation. Thanks!

I've had no problems with goodnotes on my iPad in the 4 years I've been using it daily. I love the searchable handwriting, the ability to erase highlighting without erasing writing, and how easy it is to import PDFs as new documents or as add-ons to existing ones. On my MacBook though, it's glitchy and extremely slow. It's typically about 10 mins of decent use before I have to quit and restart the app on MacBook.

Excellent markup for highlighting documents and pictures.

Something goes wrong since last update. I can’t see all my files, and I just got stuck with one folder.

PROS: 1. No subscription fees! This is a one-time purchase software. 2. You can annotate PDF: Write notes, highlight, and draw. 3. Excellent for writing notes with the apple pencil or some other third party pencil (for iPad) CONS: 1. Developer does not offer any ability to encrypt notes. This is a huge disadvantage, and limits the use, in work that deals with PII.

Please add a password protect feature! No one wants sensitive data exposed. It would be great if you could lock the application or lock individual notebooks. This is a must for some of us!

I LOVE IT DOES EVERYTHING!I wish i knew about sooner!

I pad pro 2021,系统iPadOS 15.0,经常问退，以前一周闪退3-5次，刚才连续闪退2次，平时使用挺好用的，现在闪退有点频繁了，望解决

I really like the app but it doesn’t Support Arabic

This saves up my storage so much thanks for creating Dropbox🙏

GoodNotes provides one of the best UI and greatly enhances my digital note-taking experience :D

I use this app daily. I don’t have anything bad to say about it. In fact, I came to Apple specifically for this app!

After working intensely on my iPhone 12, iPad Pro and also on the MacBook versions of a file in GoodNotes the iPhone 12 and iPad Pro versions of the app work very good. A MacBook one works good but does occasionally crash. Overall a very very useful app.

My buttt is I would give 5 stars if there was a lock feature. Will there be a lock feature any time soon?

Your application is very beautiful and we hope that you will add the audio recording feature because it is very important in our studies. Thank you

I don't know why goodnotes is taking so long. This feature has been requested by many and seems easy to add. Please I keep a lot of sensitive information that I would not like others to access

Common issue after updates is that when trying to copy and paste, it cannot copy and the app stays on a loading screen for ages unless you close and reopen the app.

So I wanted to digital scrapbook but every DECENT note taking app was for money!but good notes 5?YES?it’s free,and well,why are you reading this?what are you waiting for?!USE THIS APP NOW!!too underrated!!!

Works for anything and everything you need. Worth the 8 bucks for unlimited everything. This changed my IPad experience.

These crashes are really getting annoying. Eventhough I always use the latest versions of this app, still lots of bugs and crashes keep coming.

I love this app and overall think it is grat, however, it is not friendly when it comes to text. Please make it easier to type, create charts, etc. and transfer words over.
