How to add digital stickers in GoodNotes

When you download from HardPeach.com, you’ll typically find up to 2 different formats of digital stickers for the GoodNotes app. One format will end in .Goodnotes, while the other will be .Collections. Therefore, we’ll explain how to add each format of digital stickers in GoodNotes.

Adding .Goodnotes compressed folder

First, let’s explain how to add the digital stickers included in the .Goodnotes format that you’ll find in your HardPeach order. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Access your order made on HardPeach and locate the download link of the compressed folder for GoodNotes on your device.
2. Download this file. It’s a compressed folder with a name ending in .Goodnotes. Download it directly and do not open or decompress it.
3. Now, open the GoodNotes app. You should stay on the main screen of the app.
4. Select the icon that shows a page with a “+” sign inside (1). We’ve included an image of it below for reference.
5. After this, a new menu will open where you can find the “import” option (2), press this option.
6. Now, select the specific file of the stickers. Specifically, it will be the compressed folder .Goodnotes that you were looking to add, and you’re done.
7. After pressing on the corresponding file, the installation will begin to use the digital stickers in GoodNotes.
8. We have prepared an explanatory video to make the process of installing digital stickers in GoodNotes easier for you.

With these simple steps, you should now have the entire digital sticker notebook open in GoodNotes.

If you have successfully added the digital sticker file in GoodNotes as we explained, you can move, select, and edit the stickers using the lasso tool from the GoodNotes menu. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Select the lasso tool.
2. Encircle the center of the digital sticker.
3. Hold down and select the option you need: copy, resize, delete… In this tutorial, select “Copy”.
4. Now, go to the digital notebook, agenda, or wherever you want to place it.
5. Hold down and select paste.

Adding compressed folder .Collections

First of all, I want to mention that the new HardPeach stickers already come in a specific format to add them directly to collections in GoodNotes. The file you’ll find in the download is a compressed folder ending in .collections. This is a different format from the previous one, but they are still the same stickers.

To do this, you simply need to follow the following steps:

1. Access the download of your digital sticker order made on HardPeach.com.
2. Locate in the download itself the compressed file ending in “.Collection”.
3. Download this file without opening or decompressing it.
4. As it is, you should add it to GoodNotes in the Elements or Collections tool in the main menu. To do this, press on the star icon in GoodNotes, and then on the “+” sign that will appear inside the tool.
5. If you already have many collections created in the GoodNotes app, you’ll need to swipe them to the right until you reach the end. Here, in the bottom right corner, you’ll find the “+” sign to add a new collection of elements directly in GoodNotes.
6. By pressing on the “+” sign in the Collections tool of GoodNotes, you can add this .collections folder WITHOUT DECOMPRESSING it, just as it was downloaded.
7. By doing this, all the stickers will be added so you can freely select them in all your notes, annotations, or digital planning in GoodNotes 5 and GoodNotes 6.

With these simple steps, you should now have all the digital stickers open in GoodNotes in the Collections tool.

Common Errors When Adding Digital Stickers

Adding digital stickers is a relatively straightforward process, but this doesn’t mean that errors can’t occur along the way. If you encounter any issues with the steps explained above, check out these common errors and their solutions:

Common Error 1: When selecting a digital sticker with the lasso tool, only the option “Take Screenshot” appears. Reason: This error occurs because the wrong format has been added to GoodNotes.

Solution: You’ll need to remove it and return to your HardPeach download to download the file specified for the GoodNotes app. Make sure to check the title of the download to ensure it’s indeed the GoodNotes file. Reach out to us if you’re unable to locate it.

Common Error 2: Some pages of the .Goodnotes file come blank without stickers. Reason: This error happens when the internet connection is interrupted during the download.

Solution: Delete the file and re-download it. Reach out to us if you’re unable to do so.

Common Error 3: An error message appears for the .Goodnotes file saying it’s incompatible and cannot be imported. Reason: This error occurs when the file hasn’t been added but rather a direct access link to the download.

Solution: First, download the file to your device and then follow the installation steps. Reach out to us if you’re unable to do so.
