  2. Hello,

    I like GoodNotes concept of having multiple pages instead of one infinite one, but I find it too hard to quickly move text between pages.

    This is why I suggest adding a "Move to next page" button that pops up once I move part of the selection outside of the page's borders (see attached image for a demonstration of how this could work).

  3. Please consider making available on PC, there are very few note taking options for students aside from OneNote which is extremely glitchy. I've heard such great things and I'd love to be able to utilize it.

  4. Just by a slight movement, the line won’t be straight when I highlight some words in a text. Please make it possible to add a feature where we can select just do have completely straight highlighting lines or freestyle highlighting.

  5. The option inside the eraser itself is good, although it could be better if the eraser does not delete many pixel when it touch one pixel of pen.

  7. Erasing within a circles erases the circle itself. The tools should not do this and should be working like it does within other shapes.

  8. It would be great if the thickness of the pen can be automatically adjusted with respect to the zoom-in ratio, so that the pen thickness displayed on the screen stays the same.

  9. Please add more function on adjusting a space between paragraph line. When using pdf file, I can’t adjust the line spacing to make it fits to the line given in the file.

  11. As medical students, we get a lot of different files to annotate and study. Goodnotes is an awesome app and without it, I couldn't stay organized.

    However, I have noticed two big flaws, and fixing them would greatly grow user satisfaction.

    1st:
    It would be good to get an option for Goodnotes to Mac's share button like in iPadOS. It would be a quicker way to add content to Good note without dragging and importing separate documents.

    2nd:
    It would be awesome to be able to import .pdf files as well as Powerpoint and .docx files to document with and…

  12. When GoodNotes starts in the Documents Home view, I usually already have several notebooks open that I'm working in. In order to get to those notebooks (and the tabs displaying them) I have to go find and open a notebook that is already "open." From the Documents Home view, I would love to have a list of already open notebooks to go directly there upon app launch.

  14. When writing, I would love the option to duplicate whatever I wrote/drew using the lasso Tool directly (just moving the selected handwriting) like I can do with images. also for some reason it's possible when using split screen but not in the same page. I will attach a video of me duplicating something right away using split screen and then how it's possible to do with the same page ( it takes longer and not as efficient) I will be talking to explain further. thank you

  16. I like to use the draw and hold feature since it's more convenient than switching between the tools, but it would be great if the stroke thickness wouldn't change to the default setting.

  17. when i mark a flashcard as unknown it automatically re-shows it to me, which isn't very helpful considering i just saw it. it would be more beneficial if it was like quizlet and showed the unknown cards a few cards afterwards so that there's time to "forget it" and recall it again.

  18. Add option to change page template of entire document (pages) all at once.

    I use "squared paper" template when I write notes. It helps in maintaining a good hand writing experience. But to review/read, a white background feels much better to go through. Also while exporting it as pdf, blank background is better to read with. It very tiresome to change individual template of 200+ pages individually.
