The best note taking app
Oliver0086
Goodnotes is updated with new features constantly Though there are tons of features this is what I like the most: Ability to draw, edit and connect curves E-mail address for receiving documents directly in Goodnotes Shape recognition Note sharing with others Customizable textboxes Flashcards for learning Write continuously in a special window that follows the input content. It would be nice if it would have Romanian as a language for text recognition and password locked notes.
money hungry sharks
Necropoleis
App was good initially, GN6 completely disappointed me. It’s a half-baked, featureless, sneakily pushed update that’s really only meant to pry more money out of you. You get nothing out of the deal. The features people were truly asking for have been pushed for future updates (even though we have been asking for the same things for years atp), meanwhile this supposedly “big” update gives you absolutely nothing. It presents spell check and handwritten math recognition (which was, by the way, only made possible by the kind users that took their time to develop the AI, probably not thinking the final product would be put behind a paywall). These features are completely useless for a lot of users. Colored folders do not justify this price. None of the “new features” do. In an effort to profit as much as possible from a very promising app and a very loyal community, you have ruined a good thing. I would’ve been fine paying for the update, if I was actually getting an updated app. This is, however, just a ridiculous cash grab.
A lot of bugs with the new version
WBlossomz
I bought this app the first time so I could study for university and take notes. It was great at that time. Now, I paid for the new version again, as another subscription and it has a lot of bugs. It’s loading really slow when i change the tools or move to other documents. At the same time. I keep writing and you still do not support Romanian language after such a long time, and there are a lot of Romanian users, so the text is always red underlined and it does not recognize my text. The worst of all is that lately, when I am handwriting, the app keeps drawing random lines on the page. I thought it’s my pen but no other apps have this problem. Please fix these problems ASAP, or you will start losing a lot of users if these issues continue.
