  2. When making a card it would be nice to have all functions available, such as draw, type and pictures.

    One idea could be to have the classical top menu where the pen, eraser, hilighter, etc are found but also include a “Type” option that allows the user to type notes in the center of the card, just like it is in the current version. After that, the other tools can be used to add onto the text, such as hilighting or creating hand written annotations.

    It would also be useful to add both pictures and text to the same card.

  3. Hello! I love the new option to record notes, it's a game changer!

    Would it be possible for the app to remember the laser pointer when recording?

    So I could speak and record notes showing what I mean by the laser pointer as I speak before the laser pointer is recorded and displayed when the recording is played?

    Thank you:)

  5. I type or dictate my notes, so they are typed on my mac.
    It would be nice to be able to do an outline format for my notes.

    this is a pain in goodnotes and since I don't just use it as a planner but a notetaking app it is something that is critical.

    I've actually started checking out other apps for class and bsns notes.

  7. If you write a text and just want to move one word / sentence, you have to be very careful that your selection doesn’t touch other parts you don’t want to select.
    It would be great if GoodNotes could figure out, what you want to select. The Apple Notes App does this.

  8. Toggle Menu like the one in Notion would be a game changer for Goodnotes. It will help me as a medical student to recap and memorize my notes in an organized way, leave Notion and use only one app that has everythig i need.

  9. Currently in Windows 11 if you have a laptop that can work in portrait mode, GoodNotes only allows you to view notes only. It would be nice to be able to edit/create notes in portrait mode instead of only in landscape mode when using a windows tablet in portrait mode.

  10. It would be nice if you use a sticker of a sticky note (for example) and you write on it you can select this sticker with the writing on it without selecting the text underneath the sticker. Just like in real life, you write something on a sticky note, stick it in your notebook and then remove it again without removing what's in your notebook.

  12. We can edit what we want to do with the gesture. For example, a two-finger single tap can do something, and two fingers double taps can do something. For myself, I like to undo with two fingers single tap (I always forgot when I use different apps like procreate...)

  13. Instead of having to manually share a collaboration link notebook by notebook, have an option to share an entire folder at once for collaboration.

  14. Since the beginning it is only possible to have 3 colours for immediate access while writing. The field where they are would be big enough to host 5 colours, without making the section bigger. It makes the usage way more convenient to be able choosing 2 more colours without having to replace the others in the preselection.

  15. It would become much easier to create neat handwriting and notes that are functional and pleasing to look at. A feature in which you can adjust the stabilisation to your preferences and needs (similar to what Procreate offers) would be highly appreciated and helpful, especially to those who struggle with stable handwriting for medical reasons.

  17. I want to be able to use a dropper to take a color from an image and use it when writing notes for it. Colors help me a lot with memorization in note taking and I think it would help others too.

  19. As my (and other's) studying method requires a lot of colours, I would like to be able to change the highliter or pen colour faster. So, I'm suggesting something like a detachable grid for colour selection or an option which allows me to visualize more than 3 rapid colour choices in the main bar (for instance, hiding through the settings menu the unused tools to make room for the ones that I use more frequently).
    In other words, I would like to customize my tool bar and make it more efficient to meet my specific needs. Is this possible?
    Thank…

  20. I wish I could remove all the annotations in one document by ONE CLICK!

    I guess that is too much request...rather, simple feature other apps provide.
