  3. We Need a lineal function to mess some kind of stuff on our pages. Would be really nice for Students in Math to have the exact measure data.

    Please add this in the near Future.

  4. My professors sometimes provide us with scans of documents to read. I like to annotate as I read. However because these can be scans with black edges from scanning, it is really hard to find a color that will show through. If I was able to put an opaque shape behind my text to make it easily viewable, that would be awesome. The current fill only allows for a see though fill and it doesn’t help at all. I also can’t chose white because it would not show on the white spaces and I don’t want to be changing pen…

  5. Ink to maths would be perfect, notability has added the feature via my script and it will be excellent if good notes could do the same

  6. Add schedule that can link my document to certain days like for example in Sunday I want to review my pharmacology notes and to complete another note, when I tap on the name of the note that is written on the schedule it takes me directly to the note page.

  7. As a student I have it iced myself flagging slides/pages for many reasons. It would be nice to have the ability to change the color of the flags. For example, so I can quickly see what items I need to review and what items I have favorited for reference.

  8. When copying/pasting a picture from my MacBook to my iPad, the size of the image is inconsistent. For instance, I could copy a certain image from a website and it'll paste as 400x200. Another image from the same site that's about the same size will paste as 800x400. It seems to depend on the amount I'm zoomed in when pasting, but the option to maintain the size would be awesome.

  9. Being able to move and edit documents within the app will greatly enhance the functionality and productivity.

    The Lasso Tool should be able to edit imported documents like it is with notes. This is also applicable to the text box function.

    Currently, editing imported documents in GoodNotes feels like using Snapchat. We should be able to move and edit the text as we like.

    I strongly believe this will make GoodNotes the best notes app out there and choosing it instead of Notability would become a no brainier.

  11. In the way that you can save your favorite brushes, meaning type, color and size, in other apps so you can quickly switch between the main brushes you use in a document, it would be nice if Goodnotes had a similar option as well. It would really speed up my note taking proces if I could quickly switch between different pens and highlighters.

  14. Currently to copy an element like a sticker, I have to lasso and then long-press, as if I just long-press on the sticker that option isn’t available. I can only zoom, edit, or paste. It seems like an unnecessary extra step, and I’d love for “copy” to be an option here.

  15. There’s times I’d like my highlighter to be more vivid without going over it multiple times, or times I’d even like it to be solid (e.g. to fill something with solid color since it’s larger brush size)

  19. For me it would be Pretty helpful when there would be an Option To categorize the Pages i have marked as favourites.
    In every Semester i have about 4 different courses and for each course an own folder with probably some sub folders and when there is a page I would like to mark for later I can only use the one favourite button but I would love to have an own collection of pages marked as favourites for every folder/ for every course.
    So in the end I could have an collection of all the marked pages for one…

  20. I am constantly taking screenshots when I do research and I'm looking to gather them together into a notebook. I want to quickly paste screenshots into the notebook and also be able to add my personal notes next to them or directly on them. I wish I could do this immediately after taking the screenshot without having to go to my gallery to upload the image into GoodNotes. This will allow me to maintain my train of thought better and it will be less tedious. It will make my workflow much more effective. Since right now I have to go…
