  1. When the documents get to big and I need to scroll fast, most times I don't know the page number to jump to, I'd rather like to be able to scroll quickly.

  2. I really like the Ultimate Study Planner, though I haven't used it, as I really can't work with the Sunday-Monday-Tuesday-...-Saturday format. Any chance that you can adapt this planner (and maybe also others that include this format of weekdays) for those who use Monday-Tuesday-...-Saturday-Sunday format?

  3. Als Linkshänder kommt man immer mit der Hand auf die Toolleiste und verstellt das Werkzeug oder das Dokument. Es wäre extrem cool wenn man wählen könnte ob links oder rechts und die Toolleiste dann an den unteren Bildrand rutscht. Denn so macht arbeiten am iPad echt keinen Spaß. Danke

  4. It would be great if one could move/drag the page higher, so that the hand would still lie on the tablet when one wants to write at the very bottom of the page.

  5. It would be great to name and save Audioclips to a page. This way you can hear only the information on the page you are looking at without searching for the right audio or for the right Minute in the audio. The audio should stick right to a page where you need it.

  6. While we open a goodnotes shared link in browser tab (web), currently we have a plain title as "Goodnotes" for all the urls.

    It would be great if we set title as document name.

  7. indent feature
    - allow bulleted items to have multiple different horizontal start locations
    - "tab" key on keyboard asks like indent button
    - select / highlight bulleted items, click tab key or indent button --> goodnotes indents selected lines (instead of deleting them)
    - click tab key or indent button, type "- " to create a new bulleted item --> goodnotes begins a new list item indented one level inwards

    improved line spacing option
    - line spacing could automatically align with the lines on the default papers (like the graph paper)
    - input value instead of slider

    specific "list" feature…

  8. Bring back the bookmark button please. Or make it so we can edit the toolbar to add it back. The record feature is useless to me so I want the bookmark button back where it was.

  9. After the latest update which is the addition of voice recording into the toolbar, the brace cursor disappeared. I think the toolbar customization feature should be offered because the sidebar for the pages does not work effectively, especially for large pdf(s) (for ex. while I am looking at page 123 the sidebar stays at page 4). Thus, adding a brace for any page becomes frustrating.

  12. We need to be able to skip to the audio part that we need by clicking on the writing that has been written at that moment. The feature already exist on notability and collanote. Thank youuu

  14. Page Turner doesn't work when using iPad Pro 12.9 3rd Generation 4th Generation.

    I heard that it sometimes works on iPad Pro 11 inch, iPad Pro 12.9 inch 5th generation M1, but it doesn't work on iPad Pro 12.9 inch 3rd generation 4th generation. I thought it might be a compatibility problem with the page turner, so I tested 4 units for each different type of page turner, but it doesn't work. A typical example is that it does not work with iRig Blue Turn products.

  15. Now the goodnotes on windows beta can only create notes files but can not open the notes files created by ios or share the files to other equipments. Naturally, I know that now the beta version can not sync with iphone or mac, however, the functions I mentioned beyond is also very important.

  17. GoodNotes should have a widget option where we can pick a page of a document to be displayed. This would be so nice if we could see our to-do list or any other reminder on our home page.

  18. It has been a long time since the publication of the first request (2017). Still (2023) all of the listed languages: ( Polish / Czech / Ukrainian / Swedish / Danish / Norwegian ) do not have handwriting recognition support. We pay for the full version of the app and in return we don't get one of the most crucial features.

    Other apps that are alternatives to GoodNotes, such as Nebo or Notabillity offer this features.

  19. To import or export pdf files takes too many touches to perform. I would say Notability has mastered this.
    Being able to export to more than 1 apps. As of the moment to export a file, the file will compile all the pages and will only allow you to export to one applications, and if you want to export the same file with the compiled pages to another app you have to repeat the process and compile the pages again.
    - It would be great if you would keep the menu to export until we want to exit out of…

    1. Playback speeds at 1.25x 1.5x 1.75x 2x
      2. Option to delete our voice recording
      3. Option to split the voice recordings and edit them like cropping some segment of recording

          4. Option to enable Animated Preview of our recording, when    we would       
               click on the text the recording should play at that instant.
          5. Voice Boost and Equaliser
