  1. On the documents menu. Instead of pressing the down arrow to access submenu for move, copy and trash. Can this be replaced with left or right swipe to offer the same options.

    Instead of pressing the tick to open select all notes options Could this happen if you long press any note?

  2. I would like to be able to use the select tool when writing with the Zoom window without having to exit this mode.

    I use this app every day and it would be quite helpful if you are able to add this feature :)

  3. because all files are sync to the cloud (icloud/onedrove...) we should be able to desync some of them so they take less space but are still visible on the app. And re-download them when we need to

  5. Don't want to have to scroll all the way to a font I used somewhere else. A "recently used" section would be very helpful.

  7. I’d love to have a lab notebook mode where every page is automatically stamped with a date and time, and a locking button so that page can’t be written on after being locked, or can refer to that page by copying it, so as to meet lab notebook standards.

  8. I love being able to create notes on my iPad, but review them on my iMac desktop. Just like in Preview.app for the Mac, I would like to be able to select a single page view, two page view, continuous scroll view, etc. I'd like the window to just show one page at a time as I resize the window. Thanks!

  11. I think, especially after seeing the recent "favorites bar" on Notability, that we should be allowed to move the toolbar to the right hand side of the screen. As a lefty the bottom toolbar is not close to how useful I find the right handed mini-toolbar that I can throw around my screen in notability now. I'd love to see a more refined and better version of this feature on goodnotes for, not only left handed people, but everyone that doesn't want to reach to the top or bottom of the screen for small reasons

  15. Hi ,
    I have switched to your app after about 10 years of using other apps. This app is great, has lots of fantastic features that make it superior to others and is very convenient to use. But it also lacks some features too.

    Voice recording and importing is crucial, especially now that Samsung has added it to its app.
    Also other multimedia formats are cool to be added , like short video clips, gifs and etc...
    Please update, others already have , Samsung has added voice, folders, importing PDFs and a lot of features that they didn’t have, they…

  16. Renently, notability can draw a curve line.

    Need to improve pen tool to draw a curve line - also arrow line

    As a math teacher and 5-year goodnote user, need to draw a cartesian coordinate plane, or quadratic&cubic&quartic function.

    Please make four-dotted line -like vectornator or Illustrator- to draw that curve! Before I change to Notability!

  17. It will be great if legal or important documents could be permanently saved as read-only, preventing any future editing or inappropriate deletion.

  20. Email to GoodNotes is a pretty handy automation feature, but it is quite annoying to get all the files in the "Home" directory. It would be really nice if it was possible to add the option to use a relative path to the home directory like '/university/cs1' as subject of the mail.

    That way I could automatically import my scripts into GoodNotes and they would be there whenever I wanted to use them. Currently I have to search for the required script in the set of scripts forever, which costs me more time than downloading the scripts as soon as…
