Goodnotes uses on-device AI to recognize your handwriting and let you know when you have misspelt something. You can then correct your spelling while still keeping your own handwriting.

Use Spellcheck as you write

  1. Write down a word.

  2. If you have misspelt something, you will see a red line appear underneath the word.

  3. Finger-tap on the underlined word to bring up suggestions.

  4. Choose the correct spelling.

  5. Your word will change to the correct spelling while maintaining your handwriting style.

<aside> 💡 Please note that Goodnotes will use AI to generate and match your handwriting style based on the handwriting on the page you are working on. Because of this, pages with more information will produce more accurate results and results may vary across different pages in a notebook or in notebooks shared with other users.
