Deleted my notes from class

It ended deleting my note that I took in class. Now I don’t know how to get them back. Also it would help if you could add audio while you write like in notability.

I love this app and took notes on it all through college. I’ve used it since there was just GoodNotes 3. I recently went back to school and downloaded the 5th version; however, there are somethings lacking in GoodNotes 5 that GoodNotes 4 has. I just bout a new fine point stylus that does NOT work with GoodNotes 5 but works with GoodNotes 4. This is really annoying because I don’t want to go back and forth and transfer files over that’s just annoying. I also with the delete/back button was on the same line as the return button so that when I make a mistake it’s easily accessible. I like how GoodNotes 4 has this. Where it is now feels far away and a hassle to reach quickly when trying to write fast. Lastly, when I import Power Points it cuts off the right side so text and images are interrupted. This is for both GoodNotes 4 & 5, though I remember this did not happening in an earlier version. Please fix this. Over all I love this app but there’s few tweaks would make it a 5 star rating.

Excellent app for notes

I’ve been using GoodNotes 4 for years and really like it for notes and technical sketches/designs. I just updated to 5 and tested it out before migrating all my notes, due to several reviews mentioning lag issues (I’m using an iPencil). I have not had any problems and really like the new interface. It makes certain functions easier to use, like switching between highlighter colors, which I do a lot. Overall, excellent app.

So far so good!

Just started using it for school and I can easily organize all the different subjects and even color code them.

Years ago

The idea of having all your to do lists, meeting note and other stuff all in one place and being able to write just like you would with a pen and paper has been around for a long time. I tried earlier versions of these products years ago with great disappointment, the technology was bad. But now with good notes, an iPad and the apple pen I am amazed at how real every thing works and feels. Being able to search words I have handwritten and finding information quickly, wow! Worth the money.

Love the app, but the STREAMLINE on the pens is ridiculous.

streamline??!

I like my handwriting... stop changing it slightly.

College Notes

This app is perfect for taking notes in class and great for creating notebooks for each class

Very Solid, Could be Better

I really love this app for it’s customizability and how powerful it is for the Apple Pencil. I just wish that it was as effective with the keyboard. When i try to type using the notebooks, the text boxes dont space evenly and it just isn’t intuitive.

Really good writing app for scientists

As a Data Scientists I have to write a lot of math equations, draw diagrams and even take general notes for study. This app is the best I can get. It would be awesome if the handwriting recognition can be improved but it is really great.

GoodNotes 4 is better

I tried GoodNotes 5 and there were so many glitches like the pen not writing when it was suppose to and sudden closing of the app. I think at one point I lost a good page of my notes in class due these glitches. I used GoodNotes 4 for all my science classes a few semesters ago and never had any issues. I’m going to stick with 4 until the new version becomes smoother.
