Ratings and Reviews
Editors’ Notes
This digital notepad and PDF markup tool covers all the bases. Create notes with your keyboard or Apple Pencil: the app transforms your hand-drawn shapes into perfect ones, and can even convert your handwriting to text.
The best app for college students
I'm so glad i left notability for GoodNotes 5 !
Not only GoodNotes 5 is only one time purchase(and not a subscription, this so important for me because as student I’m on a tight budget) .. the customisability is sooooo amazing! You can customise anything you can think of, and you can hide the status bar and the previous notes you opened for more screen size and for me it prevents me from looking at the time every time I’m studying 😂
I only hope Google drive syncing and an actual black paper instead of grey
Best of luck to whoever working on this app
Need an Option to Hide the Tab Bar for a Cleaner Workspace
GoodNotes is a powerful app for note-taking, but there’s one major drawback that disrupts an otherwise smooth experience: the fixed tab bar at the top of the screen. The blue tab area, which shows open documents and navigation options, takes up valuable screen space, especially on smaller devices. When I’m working, all I really need are the essential tools—the pen, highlighter, and eraser. However, there’s currently no way to hide or minimize the tab bar without sacrificing my ability to edit.
A simple option to collapse or hide the tab bar would make a big difference in usability. For those of us focused on creating notes without distraction, having a clean, minimalistic workspace is essential. Adding a feature to toggle the tab bar’s visibility, while still keeping editing tools accessible, would really enhance the experience and improve workflow efficiency.
GoodNotes is fantastic in many ways, but the lack of flexibility with the tab bar significantly impacts the overall user experience. I hope the development team considers this feedback for future updates. It’s a small change that would greatly enhance the functionality of an already powerful app.
