  1. In addition to being transcribed into an editable document, you can add short text, forming notes with what you underline and what you add. You can see the document in a preview. Later, you can edit, convert to pdf and share the new document.

  3. I sometimes would like to know the amount of documents in one folder. It would be great if the number of documents would stand underneath the documents in the folder or e.g. next to the date of creation before opening the folder.

  4. This app will automatically download all files every time. My iPad storage is full. I hope you can add a function like Apple Books to delete and download a single file.

  5. It would be great if we could chose the format, which the scanned document should have. Those white bars are failing in its look. Another option would be to make a tool, you can crop your page with and where you can also chose a format. Please do this :)

  6. When more than three tabs are open, the fourth one always reloads when you tap on it. I can live with that, it’s fast, but the annoying thing is that it goes back to standard scale every time. Very annoying.

    I also think that todays iPads can fit more than three tabs in the memory.

  7. On iPad Pro connected to Apple Magic Keyboard, text editing is extremely buggy. It becomes uneditable, unmovable, and sometimes even text defaults aren’t applied.

  8. Along with being able to create in-document hyperlinks, please allow hyperlinks in template pages. E.g. to allow the author / reader to go back to (say) a contents page. For larger documents, the thumbnail feature is utterly useless.

  9. Stop changing the zoom level of the image when it’s being cropped. Many people design images to fit their templates but when brought into Goodnotes have to spend ages resizing.

  11. I have a music notebook and you already have staff paper for transcriptions in music notation. I like that a lot. I have some other apps like iGigBook and Musicnotes which accept commands from a Bluetooth page turner. It has two pedal switches; one for forward navigation, and the other for reverse navigation of a multi page score of music. I can play hands free without the need for a human page turner. Or having to stop at every page boundary to tap the screen for the next page. Can you please add this functionality? Thank you, and good work…

  13. When inserting screenshots in the flashcards function, they are blurred when queried, making it difficult to read. It would be great if this could be improved e.g. if the flashcards are displayed over the whole screen.

  15. Es wäre ganz hilfreich, wenn es bei den Geometrie-Objekte auch ein Objekt für fertige Koordinatensystem gäbe. Eventuell welche, die mit festen Abstand funktionieren oder sich an das karierte Batt anpassen.

  16. Please add an option to remotely delete documents when they have been compromised. As a medical student, I have my iPad often times stolen by classmates. It would be great to have some sort of a backup for such cases.

  18. New user, great app.
    Perhaps consider allowing for a/some window to be detachable and freely floating.
    A user might make a bunch of personal elements (bulletpoints, arrows,...) and have it be available. Currently there's only a non-modal thumbnail view available in the navigation bar.

    Making this modal, undockable would increase efficiency for those that use this item repeatedly.

  19. If we select some page on a page and do not deselect it, I cannot select text on another page. First, I have to go to the original page deselect the page by clicking elsewhere, and then select text on another page.
    I use GoodNotes on iPad when I want to write something, but for just reading and highlighting, and underlining I use the monitor. I feel the experience on the macOS app related to highlighting and underlining can be improved a lot.
