Hi,
I recommend to fix the following three tips. I am a deeply user for GoodNotes 4.with Apple Pencil it make my life batter and more convient.
1.When Apple Pencil select lasso tool I need to using two fingers to swip pages. Could you replace it with one finger could swip when using Apple Pencil?
2.After using lasso tool get Screenshots I have to tap cancel to exit the share window, which makes me feel unconvincing. If we could tap anywhere else the share window to exit it, the producibility will be greatly boost.
3.When using WIFI-transfare we just only upload files one-by-one. I get it low productivity. Turn multi-files once via ftp or http is a good idea.I hope goodnotes become more and more successful.
Cheers

Hi,
I’m wondering if you can add a feature that disables the use of your finger as a pen. Every now and then when I’m using the pencil I go to swipe between pages and end up rubbing something out. I use GoodNotes every day with my Apple Pencil 2.0. I love your app.
This feature would make it perfectCheers

I don’t see a difference in darkness with pressure sensitive mode clicked on. It would be great if this could actually be the case along with enabling the tilt for the Apple Pencil

Please ignore the bellow comment. Just found out that switching to fountain pen gives the feature I was hoping for :-)
Althogh, the pressure gradient could be better set. You shouldn’t have to press really hard to make a slightly thicker line and that is the case right now. -

There is an option to use “pressure sensitivity” with Apple Pencil but I can’t see what difference it really makes.
Pressure sensitive writing would be really good. Why? Because when writing fast, it often gets messy when you get input from the lightest touch of the pen. Pressure sensitivity would make it more like writing with a real ball pen. I’m seeing this as one of the biggest shortcomings of GoodNotes after using extensively for almost two years. This makes me constantly considering to change app to Notability or OneNote to get better writing performance but I like the GUI of GoodNotes so I hope it could be fixed soon. -

MS OneNote has vector inking and pressure support. So this isn't impossible. OneNote does have a larger latency though. Not sure if this is the culprit.

Like others have hinted at, this won't happen. Lines are currently stored as vectors (there are no plans to change this). Instead they would have to be stored as bitmaps. Goodnotes and Notability have gone over this in discussions.

Apple Pencil Tilt support would allow shading with pen selected and highlight width when highlighter selected, and eraser width with eraser selected. If such a mode were implemented you could also simplify the interface to not show the various width selectors for eraser and highlighter. I've wanted this for quite some time and it's clear I'm not the only one. Thanks in advance.

I use Goodnotes on iPad Pro with the Pencil to take notes during lectures all the time. They are a good combination indeed, but I find it difficult having to change to highlighter tool when I want to hightlight something. It'd be perfect if there's a "Tilt to Hightlight" option added in the Apple Pencil stylus setting.

Agreed, having the ability to use tilt for highlights or even eraser would be a game changer. Your use of the Apple Pencil is still hands down better than Notability. (which I deleted after using Goodnotes 4) I've beta tested for them for a long time but I'm done, Goodnotes for here on!

This is the only thing holding me back from purchase. A Tilt responsive realistic pencil like the Apple Notes app. I know you're proud of your realistic vector ink, but pencil tilt would be great, though difficult because most of what you do is vector and it looks like Apple do it raster, I know it would be a huge selling point for you none the less. Please add it and I'm sold.

I have tried few others note-taking apps (penability, outline etc) for iPad Pro, and this is the MOST fantastic app. I completely replaced my need to have multiple note taking apps. Also, having the desktop version, which I can use as viewer for my notes from iPad is an AMAZING feature.
Please do add tilt features and perhaps addition of bookmarks / sections in each notebook. SImilar to how OneNote on Windows desktop does it!

Really missing feature is pencile. Being able to use pencile as it is in Apple notes would be just perfect.

It would be nice to have labels and stickers as well, similar to what is in Noteledge app. When you are planning a trip or creating a Travel log, stickers and labels will make if more colorful and fun. Another feature that is in Noteledge app is inserting or recording a video. Also they have in-app browser where you can search for pictures and crop out sections you want and place it in the app which is very cool. If you think my idea is going to be a great addition please vote for my idea "Insert Videos, Stickers, Internet Cropping tool"

Adding tilt support and a ruler would make this better than Apple Notes in *every* way.

This app is already the best note taking app available by far. I have tried many others and this is the easiest to use while giving excellent results - I have created different templates easily and it is a joy to use.
I now have an iPad Pro and the Apple Pencil and if GoodNotes was to add in the same drawing capabilities that are in the latest Apple Notes (including a pencil drawing option in addition to the two pen types), this would make GoodNotes the 'must have' note taking application for anyone with the Apple Pencil.
