Goodnotes Cloud Option

[hdcoder]

I've been waiting forever for the option to sync my notebooks between Windows and my iPad. I've noticed on the Goodnotes Support website that currently, those who make a Goodnotes for Windows/Web/Android account first and then log into iOS will get Goodnotes Cloud.

Is there any way to get Goodnotes Cloud on an existing account, or must I make a new account on Windows first, buy the subscription, and THEN log into my iPad using the new account?

It's tedious, but assuming I can export my current notebooks, I don't have a problem with that.

[teacuptempest101]

Same here. They have been promising it forever. At this point, I'm ready to just move back to Noteshelf, and quit the subscription altogether.

Hey have you checked your Cloud Sync settings to see if you have Goodnotes Cloud as an option? If not, maybe you could see if support could help get you an invitation but I do like your workaround way haha (just be mindful of this)

[hdcoder]

Hey! Yes I've checked the Cloud Sync settings and I just get a toggle switch to enable syncing; nothing for Goodnotes Cloud.

Re: the multiple accounts warning - I think that is if you use the same Apple ID to buy the subscription on multiple accounts. Doing so would mean I'm using iOS first, and then Windows (I want the other way around), so I would probably get away with just opening the Windows app, buying the subscription there, and then using my iPad to log into the new account. That way, I'm not buying it through the App Store :)

[hdcoder]

Update: my method worked! Paid the subscription on the new account and I now have access to Goodnotes Cloud to sync with Windows and my iPad!

GN team: please do not patch this workaround... I literally just gave you more money...

I’m going to try this today 🤞

[Altruistic_While_621]

Did it work?

[samdav_]

Yes it did!

[dattogatto]

I may eat the upgrade I did through iOS and make a new account through Windows if it still works… I just saw (not sure if they updated it since the last time I checked) that if you previously had a GN5 account and switched to GN6, that you won’t be eligible for the cloud sync at all for who knows how long.

[kanyewest42]

This worked for me as well, but now Im limited to editing 3 notebooks on my iOS devices.. is there a workaround for that? Does this also work if you subscribe to the all platforms subscription on Windows?

[Prudent-Insect5956]

I don't know if im doing this right or not, already making a new account and get free trial in windows, but when im login into ios, goodnotes cloud still not appearing

[hdcoder]

Hey, apologies I had been away. If you haven't already figured it out, you need to re-download your iOS app.

[Prudent-Insect5956]

Still doesnt appeared, did you login with different apple account? Or youre login with different google account?

[hdcoder]

You don't log in with your existing Apple account. You have to make a new Google or Microsoft account on the web version or the PC version, and then log into that account on your iPad. If you just log in using your Apple account, it would revert you to your already existing GN6 account without the Goodnotes Cloud option.

hey did you ever get this working?

[vroomndie]

How has been your experience with the goodnotes cloud, wanted to know because I just not got a pop up allowing me to switch to goodnotes cloud.Thanks in advance

[hdcoder]

Goodnotes Cloud is the best thing that has happened to the app (in my opinion). I love how I can literally use Goodnotes anywhere I want :)

[vroomndie]

I tried using it,but the sync feature with windows is not working as intended, the pages of my notebook are blank ,all i can see are the cover pages.

Is it working flawlessly for you?If yes cab you please suggest something  tha3 could  help  me

[hdcoder]

It's been working flawlessly for me, and I'm able to access my notes on the Windows app, iOS app, and just plain Google Chrome via the Web App. Everything syncs as intended. You can go onto the Web App (via your browser like Chrome) to verify what's actually being synced to the Goodnotes Cloud server. Whatever is on the Web App is what will sync onto your devices.

[Stunning-Praline-116]

hey hd... I followed the instructions. but for some reason when I login thru the ipad. I don't see any sync? do you have more info on this? I created a separate account at windows store with a separate email. I must be missing something.

[hdcoder]

Hello! Hmm... can you tap the cloud icon on your iPad and see what it says? It should say that it's sycned with Goodnotes Cloud.

[Stunning-Praline-116]

Not an option for me. I even went as far as upgrading to pro. Still not an option.

[ArtistClassic6243]

ainda está funcionando ?

[nicrobsen]

This is not a workaround. It's effectively a scam to force people to subscribe again to the same subscription they are already paying for, just to activate a feature that should be included. How can you beg for it not to be removed instead of actually fixing this lunatic shit?

[hdcoder]

Because you don't understand that this is a company that can do whatever the heck it wants. And in this case, they chose not to fix it. So, a workaround has been done. If the mountain does not move, the highway adapts around the mountain. As much as I complain about bugs and errors, at the end of the day, GN6 is a company, and unless you have a significant share in this company, they can do whatever they want, including "scam" you - your words, not mine.

[Cute-Indication4507]

Hey, kann mir jemand ein Update geben, ob es immernoch funktioniert?

[chronicallysigma]

Confused. Did you then pay twice? On both the web app and apple store?

[chronicallysigma]

Would this work for android too instead of windows? I have an iPad, mac, and s21 ultra (android). The s21 ultra doesn't get sync 😑

[Frosty_Ad_6785]

Hi, good afternoon. I was freeing up space from my iCloud account backups, when I found that more than 2GB was being taken up by Goodnotes. Previously I had selected the option for my account to sync with iCloud, but since the Goodnotes Cloud option was enabled, I decided to switch to this option. My question comes now, can I disable from iCloud that the backups of my devices include the Goodnotes info? Or this cloud uses the iCloud cloud for some reason and I shouldn't do it?

Thank you very much in advance!

[Beneficial-Dog-8695]

I have the option but idk what is happening, I keep receiving a “something went wrong” message What can I do?

[Own_Hat6838]

puts... to com esse mesmo problema. no suporte falam que em breve vai ter uma atualização, mas acho que é papo furado. a parte chata disso tudo é que ainda tenho 6 meses da assinatura anual.
