It's my universal assistant
A.G. Farbitnik
Using GoodNotes as my main application at work as medical doctor. The best of everything I ever tried. It helped me to throw away all my paper textbooks and notebooks. Very thankfull to developers of this app. It would be glad to see more templates and especially with dark backgrounds.
New update for worst experience
CrazyPv
This new GN6 erases what I write far too often and I have no idea why does it happen. I use original Apple Pencil 2 on iPad Pro and almost every minute I have the GN erasing part of my writing so that I have to stop, come back and write again the same word. It gets even worse when you take notes live and it spoils all your attention. Bring back previous version or improve this one. Update from August 2024. Why for god's sake I HAVE TO upgrade to new version and pay yearly if I've already paid for your app when started using GN5? Leave your updates and give back the syncing! What's next, paying for each change? Put payments for new features, give me back what have already been paid for.
Problem with links
Pivoinesdansunvase
I really liked this app since it is a real helper for university studies. However, recently I’ve got a lot of problems with unintended links that appear in my words. For instance, I write my e-mail address, and then there is a link that impedes me. The main problem is that the button “remove the link” does not work! I kindly ask you to solve this problem, for I’ve bought the full version for note taking, and this link issue makes me think that maybe I should not have done this.
Quickly reset a page directly from the page menu in the sidebar with the new Clear Page action.
Quickly remove all content of a specific type at once with the new Delete Specific Items option from the more menu inside a Notebook.
Fixed an issue where strokes attached to a hidden tape stayed hidden after the tape was moved.
Goodnotes AI's Quiz Me now warns you if you enter an invalid number of questions, and pressing delete on selected text in the chat no longer sends the message unexpectedly.
General bug fixes and stability improvements.
