With a modern look, Goodnotes 6 aims to make it easier to access and use all of the tools you love, and the new ones you’ll discover. This guide will help you get familiar with the main interface.
The Library View is home to your own documents and those shared with you. When you launch Goodnotes for the very first time, it's the first thing you see. Initially, it's empty, but as you start creating your notes, your creations will appear here. The Library View provides tools to manage your documents, search them, and get new items to enrich your library.
The Document View is where you can let your creativity flow! It's the view where you can take notes, using several editing tools at your disposal. This is what you see when you tap to open a document from the Library View.
From the Document View, you can get to the Library View simply by pressing the Back icon in the top left-hand corner.
The Back icon on the Nav Bar
Located at the top of the screen, the Document Tab Bar displays all of your open documents (by default). You can switch between documents and close them from here.
The Nav Bar is located right below the Document Tab Bar and provides quick access to different sections of the app, such as the Library, Favorites, and Settings as well as the core note-taking modes: Handwriting, Typing and Recording.
