  2. Allow users to login on the website for desktop users to easily sync by logging in and being able to edit from anywhere. Kind of like what Microsoft did.

    1. default paper color
      At the moment we can choose one of two: white or strong yellow.
      In my opinion, the yellow one is too strong - of course, this is just my opinion, but adding the possibility to choose a paper with a slightly less yellow color would be something great.
      I think the way to have a cool yellow color is in Notability. There yellow seems to be nicer - better perceived by the eye.

    2. color of the application bar.
      Right now we have something like light navy blue - it's a bit sad and a very office color.…

  4. It would be super nice to have extra space to write sentences and phrases on the side or under imported PowerPoint instead of only being able to write on the slide. Writing on the slide helps highlight terms etc, but doesn't help any extra information a teacher/professor may say out loud, that's not a part of the slide.

  5. I have been using this app for nearly four years. Recently, I often use your "Add comments" function to make annotations, but there is no "search comments" function to make me confused, because there are 50 or 60 comments on a note, it is difficult to find the comments I want to see in a short time, I really hope to update the "Search comments" function as soon as possible. Best wishes for you.

  6. When I "add page" to a notebook, and then "scan documents", the document is scanned and the margins are good (right on the page edges). But, when that document is imported into a notebook, margins are added and cannot be cropped.

  9. After coping text from and pdf and pasting into GoodNotes there should be an option to return to the previous tool, such as the pen, to go straight to adding notes or drawing. Much like the eraser can automatically return to the pen.

  12. I would love to have a toggle to activate something like a "zen mode". If toggled, there should be nothing except for the paper and a floating toolbar with selected tools only. The user has complete control over which tools to use here. For example, I never use stickers, so this would not be in my toolbar. However, I regularly switch between a blue ballpoint, a black ballpoint, a green brush and a red brush pen. These alongside with the eraser and lasso tool would be in my "Zen Floating Toolbar".
    Additionally, it would be very helpful to customize the…

  13. Say I am on the eraser tab with the smallest off the 3 erasers pre-selected but I want to erase a large chunk of writing quick, as of now, I have to select the larger eraser, erase the content, then select the smallest eraser again! Wouldn’t it be better if I am on the smallest eraser, I touch and hold any of the other two sizes (with my non-dominant hand obviously) and it temporarily switches to the size I select till I lift my apple pencil up? Since lifting the pencil, it shall go back to the size it was…

  14. La télévision en ligne a révolutionné la façon dont nous regardons nos émissions préférées. De nos jours, il n'est plus nécessaire d'attendre une diffusion télévisée spécifique pour profiter de nos programmes favoris. En France, l'une des principales plateformes de télévision en ligne est tvendirect.net. Cette plateforme propose une large gamme de programmes, allant des séries aux documentaires, en passant par les émissions de divertissement. Ce qui distingue tvendirect.net des autres plateformes de streaming, c'est son accent sur les mots inspirants.

  15. Hello dear community!

    I wanted to tell you about my exciting experience with https://horbuchkostenlos.de/ and encourage you to try it yourself! In our busy world, I often found little time to relax and immerse myself in books. But since I discovered free audiobooks, that has changed!

    Thanks to various online platforms and apps, I was able to find a variety of audiobooks in different genres. From classics of world literature to exciting thrillers - the selection is huge! And best of all, it doesn't cost me a penny!

    Listening to audio books has really enriched my life. I can enjoy…

  16. I feel that the flashcards would be perfect if I was able to flip them and get tested on the "answer" side. when I'm studying a language, I want to be able to get tested on both languages. And if it's possible, it would be amazing to be able to mess with the setting and get a mix of either side of the flashcards in a study sesh. Also the ability to randomise flashcards would be great. In general, more customisation for how we want to be tested would be awesome. Other than that, I'm really happy with this flashcard…

  18. The current search function can only see the file, not the file path. For those who have created a folder in the wrong place, it is painful not to find this folder through the search function. I have to open each folder to check where the folder is, and the search function has no effect at this time. I want the search function to tell me where the file or folder is like the search function of the Windows system.
