Feature Request: Continuous Ink Across Pages

Feature Request: Continuous Ink Across Pages

I've been using GoodNotes for a long time, but recently I started trying other note-taking apps and came across Star Notes. One feature immediately stood out to me, and I think it would be a fantastic addition to GoodNotes.

In Star Notes, there is no visible gap between consecutive pages. Instead, the pages behave like a continuous vertical canvas. As a result, if you're drawing or writing across the bottom of one page, your ink stroke continues seamlessly onto the top of the next page without interruption.

In GoodNotes, however, there is a visible gap between pages. More importantly, pen strokes stop at the page boundary and cannot continue onto the next page. If you're drawing a long diagram, arrow, or any continuous stroke, you have to stop at the bottom of one page and manually redraw the continuation on the next page. This breaks the writing flow and feels less natural.

I would love to see GoodNotes introduce an optional continuous page mode, where pages remain separate for printing and exporting but behave like a single vertically scrolling canvas while writing. This would make long handwritten notes and diagrams much smoother and provide a much better writing experience.

I hope the developers consider adding this as an optional feature in a future update

Star Notes: Is there a way to disable or adjust the auto shape recognition?

I recently purchased the premium version of Star Notes and have been enjoying it overall, but I've run into one issue that's becoming quite frustrating.

While writing with my Apple Pencil, I sometimes naturally pause for a second without lifting the tip from the screen. Star Notes often interprets this as a shape gesture and automatically converts my stroke into a straight line or another shape.

At first, I thought I just needed to avoid pausing, but I've now noticed it occasionally happens even during normal handwriting. It almost feels like a bug or that the hold time is too short.

Is there any way to:

  • Turn off the automatic shape recognition feature?
  • Increase the delay before it recognizes a shape?
  • Or is this a known issue with the app?

I'd appreciate any suggestions or workarounds. Thanks!
