  1. I think that when lifting off the screen and starting again should be doable without the highlight overlapping & going darker.

  4. I ask you to add the locking function, each folder or file.
    I think it would be perfect if that function was added.
    Please consider it positively.

  5. With the recent update bringing the welcome change of more than 3 colors in the toolbar, and then the return of the 3 pen widths, the toolbar has become more crammed on the right side.

    There is some unused space on the left side of the toolbar, and now would be a great time to make use of that space for when the iPad is in horizontal mode and has more than enough space to accommodate all the regular icons

  6. On both the iPhone and iPad, when I scan a document (not necessarily multiple) and click "Save", it takes too long to import the document/s I scanned. Sometimes the time it takes exceeds a minute. I hope you release an update to expedite the importing time because when I scan documents with Apple Notes, it saves them instantly.

  7. It would be ideal to improve the ability of typing notes in GoodNotes. For instance while the ability to create bullet points is already there, being able to indent another type of bullet point underneath another like when using any Microsoft application would be much better. While i use GoodNotes i write out my notes about 90% of the time. But for the remaining 5% i would like to be able to type out my notes and have them be able to organized the way i like. Especially since purchasing a keyboard for my iPad i feel this would make…

  9. Would be great to be able to choose different types of strokes (discontinuous), to have wider pens (more than 2mm), and measurements ( a ruler so, if we want to print, know previously the scale)

  10. In other apps like Notability, the scrolling is quite fast and "normal". When I tried to switch to GoodNotes, the first thing I realized is the fairly slow scrolling. Please make the scrolling faster because it can get really annoying trying to scroll around finding notes but it takes too long.

  11. As a dedicated user of GoodNotes, I have been exploring the app's features and functionality, and I believe there is an opportunity to improve the app's highlighter and pen thickness options. Currently, the available thickness sizes are limited, and it can be challenging to find the ideal thickness size for specific note-taking situations. This can have a significant impact on the user experience, making it difficult to achieve the desired level of precision and accuracy.

    Therefore, I suggest that GoodNotes consider expanding the range of available thickness sizes for both highlighters and pens. Alternatively, it would be helpful to have…

  12. Wenn ich ein Dokument einscannen will und das Dokument in Querformat ist wird es im GoodNotes immer ein Hochvormat erstellt. Cool wäre, wenn das Vormat beim einscannen übernommen wird.

  13. I often use the automatic snap/straighten feature to straighten lines and attach them to circles.

    However I get mad every time because the snap feature attaches the line at odd positions on the circles. I would expect lines to be attached at points distanced by 30 or 45 degrees.

    What happens is that every time I have to edit manually the attach position of the line.

    You can see from the image and the short video that the straight line is tilted.

    Can this issue be fixed?

    I also attach the same example with two rectangles: there is no issue…

  14. When adding (pasting) pages to a existed document, it would be great if the width of the added page is adaptive to the width of the existing pages if all pages of the document are of the same size. If not all pages are of the same size, then allow users to choose the width, e.g. existing page width (A3/A4/…), same as preceding page, etc.

  16. I used to write with a fountain pen all the time but switched to iPad because I had so many notebooks it was getting a bit ridiculous trying to go back through my notes. One thing I miss so much is the way ink looks on a page, particularly inks with hi sheen and shading. Colours vary in intensity at different points on the page, some completely change depending on the amount of ink laid down and it really makes writing enjoyable and makes revising notes oddly satisfying. Please add some form of this to GoodNotes as an option when…

  18. I really like how on Super note to erase, you just hold two fingers on the screen and then start erasing anything you want. It is tiring to constantly double tap to erase one character, and it takes too long to tap the eraser icon to erase more than one character.

  20. I use a graphic tablet (Gaomon 1060 pro) with Goodnotes on macos. When i write fast, the "Paste, Add Comment" Box doesn't appear . However, if i write slowly, the box keeps showing and hides my writing. I find that the box is very annoying.
