  1. Es wäre ganz fein wenn es ein Feld gäbe was man anklickt und es öffnet ein Unterschriftenfeld wo man geziehlt unterschreiben kann. Gegebenfalls mit zwei optionen, 1= Kundenunterschrift -> wird nicht gespeichert. 2= Unterschrift zum speichern...
    Vielen Dank

    It would be very nice if there was a field that you click on and it opens a signature field where you can sign it. If necessary with two options, 1 = customer signature -> is not saved. 2 = signature to save ...
    Thanks a lot
    Lg Markus

  2. This is not really a feature request, but rather a bug report. When switching pages in a document with the arrow keys on a keyboard, the bookmark icon does not change. It always remains on the state of the first, with touch gestures selected, page.

  3. When using „Auto Shape Tool“ it would be helpful to chose between regular full lines and dashed lines.

  4. The handwriting experience in GoodNotes is now perfect but texting is not. I suggest that users can select an area of the page and use markdown language (or Latex for academic purposes)to organize formal notes, including mathematical functions. Such feature would be even better if one day we can see a macOS GoodNotes app, cause handwriting is not the primary way we interact with laptop.

  6. “Open documents as new tabs” option is a great tool but i would preferred that instead of all documents being open as new tabs only documents or notes or pages within a Currently open document would open as new tabs so you could toggle within that folder faster while looking at folders within folders. The way it is now it’s a bit cluttered and confusing because you get confused and don’t know where those tabs belong in just by looking at the titles if that makes any sense, thank you.

  9. As a neat workaround for the lack of infinitely large docs - give me a (dot) grid that is zoomable. So I zoom in, and instead of loosing orientation because I have to write 4 lines within one element, I want to see a finer grid appear as i zoom in. That helps to put and structure a lot more content on one page. (See figma or others that do this)

  11. I'm considering buying an iPad Pro and I love the idea of using a Pencil to take notes. My problem is that my handwriting is awful and my printing isn't much better. Back in the day I owned a Palm PDA. The quick way to enter notes into the PDA was by the use of gestures. A portion of the bottom screen was dedicated to entering gestures using a stylus. Yes, you had to memorize gestures but, this was not to hard as every letter and number was close to the way letters and numbers are usually hand written with…

  12. 将搜索内容的功能加入正在阅读的pdf文件(在红圈标记的地方加入搜索功能)。而不是统一在所有文件中搜索想要搜索的内容
    adding search function in a particular document (adding it in the regions marked by red circle in the picture.) , rather than just search content in all of the documents.

  13. I would love the see an update that adds the option to make GoodNotes zoom into the page in such a way, that it represents the exact measures of a DINA4 page. I need this, because always if I get a task that includes measuring something, I have to print the page and then I can measure it. It would be great if I could just do that on my device.

  15. I would like to submit an idea that would greatly improve the organization and special features of the app for IPad users. I was thinking of an option in settings where you can write your “ideal” alphabet (you write each letter in your best handwriting) so that when you are writing your notes it identifies the letter/number and it automatically changes to that ideal handwriting. This can give ones notes and handwriting consistency and an atheistically neat and organized look

  18. The color and font and size of the word you enter should be preserved in a few ways like writing. instead of saving only one.

  20. When I copy a word from another app and want to paste it to GoodNotes, the text format I setted doesn’t work,it will go back to the format of the original app. That’s really annoying
