Add tagging of documents and locations within documents
It would be a great deal, if it would be possible to tag all documents and (possibly) each position within each note with one or more tags. There should be a tag list for each shelf of notes, such that I can have different sets of tags for each shelf. It should then be possible to open the tag list for a shelf, click on a tag, and get a list of all usages of this tag with all documents and all locations within documents. Clicking on a usage should open the document (in case it is the tag of a whole document) or the document at the tagged position (if the tag is attached at a location within the document). The list of usages should be sorted according to the document names, and if there are more usages within a document, according to the page number. It should also be possible to jump from a tagged position within a note to the list of usages, and then to another usage, and so on.
To tag a note or a location within a note, one should be presented a list of available tags within this shelf. Then, one can select one or more tags, and possible also add one or more tags, which then can also be selected.
It would be ideal, if this approach was combined with folders (and subfolders ...) within each shelf, as is proposed in another feature request. One speciality of this request is, that these folders should be kept separately from shelves, in order that different tag groups can be maintained, one tag group for each shelf.
This feature, would make a great application, as GoodNotes already is, much more valuable. It would make GootNotes also a great knowledge management tool - with only little implementation effort. Looking forward for this feature being added! :-)

I would love to be able to add tags to my notebooks and use that to group them in various ways. Sure, you can use categories, but it's not the same - tags allow a notebook to "belong" in different groups (for example one note can both be "important" and "good idea").

It would be pretty trivial to change search so it can search for #tag. Then you’d have tag support!

It would also be great if each page would receive an automatic searchable time, date and location (using same place name system as Apple Maps) stamp. It is sometimes easier to find back notes this way in addition to tags. I often need to cross-reference notes: discussed topic A with counterpart X. In which notebook should I file it? A or X.

This is my top suggestions as well, so I'm happy to see it has been started. What is critical for me is to be able to tag locations within documents, not just the document as a whole. I take notes in many different settings and use the folder structure of Goodnotes extensively. Bookmarks are great for finding something within one documents. Now we need a tool to find something across ALL documents. Thanks for considering this and getting it underway.

Add a "tag" function. For example: I can "tag" a document with unlimited tags... I might add an employee name, department name, project, etc. After the document is completed, I can search by "tags". This will help to find documents or projects if the handwriting search isn't picked up. This function should work across all notebooks.

+1 for page tags (multiple per page)

Totally agree - link to notebooks and pages via a tag - great idea!

It would be great, if one could simply include a #hashtag in a note.
e.g. This is my #shoppinglist for #monday
GoodNotes should automatically extract all hashtags and show them in an overview. When selecting a identified hashtag, GoodNotes should automatically show all Notes sharing the same hashtag.

It is mandatory when you have hundreds of bloc notes and you are looking for a specific document.

This could work exactly like the bookmark feature and could nest in a tab right next to it (where thumnails, bookmarks and pdf table of contents are). "Plus" assigns new keyword to current page. The "tags"- tab should show a list of tags asigned to current page and an overall list of tags used in current notebook

Tagging would be a terrific feature to add. It is essential that tags will be then visible on the macbook.

TagNotate provides exactly this feature.

Implementation of this idea would bring a huge benefit. I have different books for different purposes (team meetings, client meetings, etc). In every book I have cross information (like team members, client names, project names, products etc). If I could tag pages or even sections of a page and could do a global search ..... awesome!!!!

Tags would be a phenomenal addition to Goodnotes. I've been tinkering around with the recently released Workflow App. It would open up endless possibilities for workflow improvement if Goodnotes and Workflow contained support for one another. Keep up the great work! Goodnotes it's my favorite App!

Tagging would be a great feature! There's no good tagging in any of the annotation apps and it's really important for organizing documents. Killer app like this needs killer tagging!

If I could use a variation of the highlighter tool to assign a searchable tag that would awesome. Thanks I use this app every day.

Tagging has become an essential search feature. Being able to tag pages would make good notes more functional.
