  1. You should be able to insert images into flashcards AND draw on them. Or insert an image AND add text. Or all three! I don't understand why you have to choose only one at a time.

  2. Different suggestion from the much needed sub-outlines (see the 600+ voted on suggestion by Daniel Wyatt “Sub-Outlines in Outline”) which would bring in a collapsible feature in Outline.

    This is about being able to assign, to different elements of the outline, headings which would be integrated into the Outline system. Right now the document may have different internal headings, but if I add these to the GoodNotes Outline, they are difficult to keep in their actual order.

    The suggestion is as follows :
    Include the most common and convenient method to add headings using the # (as is possible in…

  5. Hi, I love the new feature and I'm tankful for the GoodNotes team for working so hard to bring so many useful features to the app to help us study. I would have one request and that is to be able to move cards from one study sets to another. That would be tremendously useful.

  6. It would be great If you were able to write temporary notes in your flashcards while in learning mode.

    Like the whiteboard mode in Anki on Android devices (Not Apple)

    The notes shell disappear if you swipe to the next card.

    So you have the possibility to hide words in a graphic and write the term directly on the card.

  8. When favoriting a slide and then going to the document favorites tab, you should be able to scroll through all the favorites and not the whole document.

  9. Hey goodnotes,
    I'm using your program on windows and there are some performance issues especially when you import larger pdfs.
    Especially if you write something on it the performance is suboptimal.
    I also noticed that the written text seems kind of blurry when you zoom out that could also be improved.
    Also some more customizability in the home screen, like sorting your folders in the order you want, would be great.
    If you do a few fixes making your program more usable for all platforms you will probably dominate the market in a few years no matter if it’s an…

  10. Could you please bring back the UI that would not show the title of the book when there is just one book open? I usually have only one open, and the new UI that always shows the title takes up a lot of screen space.

  11. When you underline some text, you have to switch quickly of colour: it will bee great to have the possibility to use a command/tab shortcut to pass from one favorite colour to another...

    Best regards

  12. frustration regarding the synchronization between devices on your platform. As an iOS user, the current experience is incredibly disappointing. I recently purchased GoodNotes on my iPad, only to find that I cannot use it on my iPhone without making an additional purchase. Furthermore, accessing it on the web seems to require a separate payment.

    This situation has left me bewildered and questioning the company's policies. The impression I get is that users are required to make repeated purchases for the same application across different devices, which is not only inconvenient but also seems financially burdensome. I urge you to address…

  13. It would be great if there was the option to edit a flashcard while in practice/smart learn mode. Sometimes you spot errors while studying and when you do, at the moment you have to leave study mode and swipe through all your flashcards to fix it.

  15. It would be really great if you could add pages to the right, left, top and bottom. At the moment you can only add pages either top and bottom or right and left.

  18. Similar to the old school paper notebooks, I am having difficulty writing at the bottom of any page, as my hand is out of level from the notebook (iPad goodnotes) and I do not like leaving my pages half blank just because its a digital notebook.

    It will be very helpful to write with the same comfort level on the whole page if the bottom of the page can be pulled to the middle (at least while in Zoom) with non-writable blank space to put my palm on.

  19. my company is using goodnotes, we need to have an option to buy the app directly from appstore rather than creating the purchase after download (in app purchase).
    i mean a paid package that i can pay already through the app store.
    is is possible?
