  2. I really love the new beta flashcards. I like that now studying takes up the whole page and that the cards seem to have more space to write on. However, I think it would be good if we didn’t have to tap to make the flashcard bigger in order to hardwrite, just like you don’t have to to type. It would be more efficient for the one making the flashcards. Also, there’s no option to easily scroll through the flashcards. In notebooks you can press the button with the squares and see all the pages quickly. I can’t use the…

  4. For dark paper notebooks, it would be nice if when you press to type, the text is automatically white instead of black, that way you don't have to go up and change it manually every time. Or even just when you change text to white, the next time you make a new text box, it is automatically the last color you used, so; white.

  6. 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…

  7. The folder organization will be better as expandable list structure like on MacOS or MS OneNote.
    So it would be possible to see folder and underfolder.

  8. If your like me, you want things a certain way. In my line of work, I have different pen colors for work, but I also want to use a different batch of colors on my planner. Same thing goes for my text boxes, I use different types of fonts on each document. Different documents that I use daily require their own set of tools and formats. I would like to be able to label my different presets under a folder or tab in the interface. I use this app for both work and pleasure daily.

  11. I prefer setting tool position on the bottom because it reduces moving distance of my hands. (I'm using apple pencil 1 gen.) In this case, UI for recording shows below the icon so that I can't see what's going on, and it shows on top of tool bar.
    I hope it gets better very soon.

  12. We can keep each page as its own individual file but make it so we can view our notebook/planner as a book. I would love to see that option so I can see two of my pages side by side like a physical book.

  13. For natural scientists it is necessary to be able to write text characters and numbers superscript / subscript. This could be done via the format selection.
    The ability to insert mathematical formulas and shapes would also be helpful. A text recognition of mathematical notation would be even better.

  14. Add the ability to have multiple saved text styles. Currently, you can only save one "default" text style, but I use multiple styles in different places, i.e. headlines and body text for note-taking in school.

    Also, allowing different default text styles per notebook would really be a nice feature. I'm sure many of us use different default depending on the notebook, and it gets cumbersome changing the settings each time.

  16. I'd like to see a donation option in settings or somewhere. I love this app, my life is this app (I wish I were being melodramatic). With that love comes fear, fear that this app will turn into a subscription model as it becomes more robust. I wouldn't mind donating what I can-when I can. I've purchased items from the shop in the iOS version, but I don't see another way offer my support. Finally, if there is a way to hide the tool bar on all versions it would make a big difference for people with small screens.

  17. Working on my ipad and taking all of my notes on it, these tend to take up lots of storage, which i don’t mind on my ipad and i want to be able to access every notes even without internet on it.
    However, on my iphone, goodnotes syncs every notes and downloads them locally on my iphone which is problematic because it can quickly take up a lot of storage on the device when you only consult a few documents on your iPhone.

    It would be great if GoodNotes had a syncing option just like the one that iCloud Photos…

  18. Having a version history function would also be helpful like how google docs have theirs. As far as I've seen there isn't a version history function yet, and I haven't seen anyone suggest this idea in this forum.

  19. Hi, it would be great if you could add the feature to customise colours for text too! Also to be able to change parts of the text block and not the whole block!

  20. I would like it so that when I zoom in, the space on the outside of the page is large enough that I can zoom into the place I want to write and it would be positioned on the right side of the page. Currently, if I zoom onto the left side of the page, I would have to reach my right hand over to write on the left side.
