  1. Save multiple text box presets
    Sometimes when text input is used.
    It's too troublesome to adjust the style, font size and color of the text box back and forth.
    For example, if you want to use the writing of headline, subtitle and body part, you can't switch quickly
    Now that you can save the style as the default, why not add more save fields.
    Switch quickly like a pen

  3. It takes lots of time to export large handwritten note files with images -- in editable pdf format -- goodnotes almost freezes for a minute. Need further updates to improve the processing of notes with images.

  4. Hello,

    I am a new Goodnotes user and have used Notability for 10+ years. I decided to get Goodnotes for digital planners and noticed that the colors preset on my iPad are not synching to other devices. In notability, the colors I have preset sync to my other devices and it makes the colors more efficient!

  6. The size settings of pen tool and shape tool should be kept independent of each other. Suppose I want pen tool with a setting of 0.3 and shape tool with some different setting everytime I need to change the setting

  7. Within the color selection, it would be very useful to have a pipett to select a color based on an already exiting color in the note.

  10. For scientists, students and others it is almost necessary to add subscript and superscript for many formulars and equotations.

    For my personal demand it‘ll be also awesome if you add blocktext to the text formatting settings :)

  11. When I am trying to use the “study flash cards” function, it’s often too small to see, even when I write really large on them. No matter whether I see it on a tablet or laptop. I want a function so i can expand the study flash card window because it presents my flash cards so small and I can’t make it bigger to see it more easily.

  12. This app can almost do anything. I find myself often sketching out schematics in it. If there were some simple CAD functions such as new lines snapping to an exiting line or junction, or being able to specify the size of the radius of a circle or length of a line so you could draw things to scale. Think of how AMAZING that would be!

  13. import a document and export it after editing is a working way, but a bit difficult/ long. it would be nice to open a document directly from an external folder (eg dropbox or box or iCloud) with a possibility to save it directly to this external folder without having to import and export it manually. maybe a way to integrate this is via an background temporary folder, as goodnotes imports and exports the document automatically

  14. Changing the color of all a specific color. An example being able to change all the color red on a page/throughout the notebook into blue. Having to lasso colors to change it can be a slow process, so it would be nice if we could do it with a few clicks.

  16. When I try to mark and annotate the imported image with details, I cannot just import the image itself, as this would make it impossible to draw or write in areas other than the image itself. However, when inserting long screenshots into a page, the image's resolution drops significantly compared to when importing the image directly as a page. Hopefully, an option can be added to decide if I want to compress the imported image.

  17. This feature would add automatic page numbering to documents. This feature will be enabled in the document settings and and exporting the document in any kind of way would keep the page numbers, unless disabled in export options. Everyone I ask is annoyed, that something like this doesn't exist, so adding this feature might actually increase ratings. I hope you add this feature because I really need it. Thanks in advance!

    Edit: The user should be able select where the page numbering should start (For Example: The page numbered first can actually be the third page)

  18. I am a teacher and it would be so great, if i could add links to external pdfs or other files to my handwritten lesson plannings and mindmaps. I dont want to import files. I just want to write for example „next chapter. hand out prepared sheet [link to sheet].“ and click on it. So I can use the idea later without the trouble remembering which sheet/file I need. Know what i mean?
    AND: Hyperlinks within goodnotes. Links to other pages within one document and links to other goodnotes documents. That would be just: wow.

  19. So your hold to draw feature is really great. But when I make circle and hold the pen instead of drawing a circle shape it returns a square or rectangular shape. Therefore, I request you to pls add a feature to draw circles when you hold the pen after drawing a rough shape
