Bad

Since the last update, the app has been malfunctioning. I am unable to create or edit any notes. Upon visiting your website, I received a message stating that the issue is with the iCloud server. Despite waiting for five days, the problem remains unresolved. Additionally, I have paid for your annual subscription. My experience with your application has been extremely negative. I would like a refund and will be switching to Notability.
More than Amazing Application

Great app, but missing vital features and easy to add
M Shemis
I got GoodNotes recently I liked the app so much but I noticed that there is some important features is missing which btw is easy to add to the app e.g : the drag scroll bar isn’t working in the app and that’s crucial to me because I’m reading tons of pdf with huge numbers of pages and can’t move between them freely and fast.Second : I can’t read my PDFs nor my notes into double page book like reading which saves me tons of time and make the experience of reading and editing more efficient and real . by far That’s what I noticed and missed after getting the app immediately and I hope u add those features soon to make ur app more efficient .
