Note to Dropbox users: For minimal access to your Dropbox account, the auto-backup folder is set to be in /Apps/GoodNotes 5 and there isn't a way to set a backup folder anywhere outside this structure, for example in the root. For example: GoodNotes/backup… ( Don't use "/" at the end of the path.) If you want to back up to a subfolder of a folder, type in the path and separate the folders and subfolders using a slash (“/”). If no folder with that name exists yet, GoodNotes will create one. If you want to backup to a different folder, just type in the name of the folder into the field in the auto-backup settings.

You can see the auto-backup status by tapping the small icon under the "Documents" heading.īy default, the destination folder of the backup will be called “GoodNotes”. After that, only changed documents get backed up. Once you've enabled the feature for the first time, please keep the app visible on the screen until auto-backup finishes uploading your entire library.

Changes you make in the cloud storage won't affect your GoodNotes library. How it worksĪuto-backup is a one-way process, and so it doesn't sync your changes across your devices as iCloud does. Auto-backup is best used with iCloud sync to protect your notes so that you can always find them in the auto-backup folder in case something destructive occurs to your local library. Automatically upload your documents to Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive for safekeeping while you're working in GoodNotes.
