  1. The upper toolbar, where we the share-button or the undo-button are sadly is in a dark grey colour. I would wish that the customer can choose an arbitrary colour or even theme for this upper toolbar. For example OneNote is purple and in Notability the theme of the background and the toolbar can be changed.
    Thanks in advance.

  3. This feature request suggests implementing in-place PDF editing functionality that allows users to edit PDF files directly from their file paths while preserving their personal file management preferences.

    With in-place PDF editing, users can seamlessly open PDFs in their original locations, make edits, and save modifications without creating duplicate copies. This streamlines the editing process and avoids disrupting established file management structures.

    This feature empowers users to store PDFs wherever they prefer, alongside related content, while retaining the file's original location. It respects users' organizational choices and eliminates the need for manual file rearrangement.

  4. Hello, I use the study kit option a lot and there are some features that I would like you to include.

    1° I would like to have the option of being able to change the order of the cards, when I am in thumbnail mode, in the same way, that I can modify the order of the pages in a notebook.

    2nd I would like to be able to move cards individually or by selecting several from one set to another.

    3rd In thumbnail mode I would like to see the names of the cards much larger, on the iPhone…

  5. Import and convert word documents with track changes to a PDF to take notes. Competing apps can do this. I'm a professional using this app to mark up changed documents sent by my team. These are exclusively word documents and being able to open them in GoodNotes on my iPad would be great.

  8. I am using Goodnotes on iPad, Samsung Tab S8 and Windows. So far when creating a notebook from a pdf on the iPad and sharing it I can open the notebook on all platforms.

    Today I tried making a notebook on Windows and share it. I can open the notebook on the Samsung tabelet without problems but on the iPad I get an error saying the link is not valid

  11. We PLEASE need a Widget! I don’t know any other important app that hasn’t got a widget for iOS.
    One where we can see our Books in a ‘library’, just one book at a time or a certain page of a book on our home screens. Please make this happen - it is really needed!!

  12. I use GoodNotes for my mechanical engineering studies. For this it would be nice if a few more features were added.

    I would find the following features important:

    -ruler with a scale and angle setting

    -Predefined shapes (arrow, semicolon line, square, circle, etc...)

    -Mathematical paper templates (graph paper, squared paper with 5mm boxes)

  13. First thank you for your priceless. application. It’s really enjoyable to take notes.
    As a researcher, I need to read and annotate lots of papers. I would appreciate it if you could add a feature that allows me to write out the outline. I show it in the attachment. It will help organize and make annotation more enjoyable. Also, it gives us more space to make a connection between different articles.

  14. Love the new voice memos feature, I wish that they were easier to use though. I would appreciate it if the names could be edited after recording, and if they could be linked to and played by a voice memo sticker on the page.

    • having the stats on how well you doing for Study mode flashcards
    • able to view all flashcards in small tabs like for the other notebooks, but add that feature to flashcard because having to edit the first flashcard you made, but you have 100+ total flashcards is soooo time consuming!

  15. It is very important that the application incorporates a widget for the home screen. A widget will make it easier to quickly enter recent notes or notes that the user has highlighted. The ideal shape is in all sizes with a bookcase style. I want to add that this addition would make the application a real rival to the speed presented by the native apple application. Thank you very much.

  18. GoodNotes automatically organizes documents by Date, Name or Type. Since I have so many documents, it can be hard to find what I'm looking for or what I use the most. For example, I would prefer to have my Planner as the #1 document, but it's not possible since I use other documents intermittently (Date), my planner is not first alphabetically (Name) and my folders always come first (Type). If I could just click and drag where I'd like my documents, I would be able to organize my space much better.

  19. I'm a therapist, in 3 jobs, if I had an option to open a binder, then I would have 3 one for each job and each separation from the binder a client, and every time the client comes back I already have the continuation in the binder and separation from him
