  1. At present, there are only fixed A4, A3 and other sizes, which cannot meet the needs of users. Even if the manuscript paper template is imported, the template can only be the built-in size of the software, so it is necessary to support the parameters of the custom manuscript paper, such as: size, upper, lower, left and right margins, background and line format and color, etc.

  5. Samsung notes has a nice feature, where I can select a pen-modifier and a color, and when drawing over existing text, this text will change it's color to the selected color, which was set for the pen-modifier. It's quite similar to the Lasso-tool, to edit the color, but the lasso tool can be quite painful to use. Especially, if you have a big formula and want the change the color of specific letters in it. Then you would currently need to select every single letter anywhere in the formula, and then change it's color. With this new tool, I would…

  6. I wish that the Audio continues to play in the background even if you aren't on the app (and even if your ipad is locked). It can get pretty annoying when you are listening and you have to go to another tab. Goodnotes also restarts the audio clip so you then have to hunt for the place where you just were. Notability and other apps have this feature so I wish this was integrated.

  7. Hello! I love using goodnotes. I have an iPad on which I use goodnotes and I love it. I also use it on my Windows computer, and its not as good as on the iPad. I wish we could have access to the Typing tool as on the ipad, where we can write as in a word document. And also, I wish we could justify the text!

    Thank you <3

  8. When using links and it comes to selecting page - we should be able to type in the page number instead of scrolling thru the whole document to select page.

  9. So we can know what page we want to delete as well as the organization of moving pages around as well as the ability to know where the next page will appear if i add it before or after the current page.

  11. It would be great if the time keeper feature had a sound effect after the timer ends or a popup window appeared. Because when I set the timer and hide it! I always forget I even had it set. :)

  12. It would be great if we have access to the same tools from the textbox in the full page writing, specifically access to fonts and text size.

  13. We have two gesture options, squeeze and double tap. I would love to be able to set squeeze to bring up/put away the eraser and double tap to switch between my two most recent tools, but ignore the eraser as an option. That way i can go back and forth between my pen a highlighter without having the erase override one. Example: highlight something, double tap to write with the pen, squeeze to erase a mistake, squeeze to return to pen, double tap to go to highlighter.The highlighter/pen sequence could be totally separate from the eraser function.

  15. I’d love to see spaced repetition integrated directly into the flashcard feature in GoodNotes.

    Currently, flashcards are static—you flip them manually without any learning algorithm behind them. If GoodNotes could implement a spaced repetition system (SRS) like Anki or RemNote, it would massively boost its usefulness for students, med students, language learners, and anyone prepping for exams.
    Why it matters:
    Spaced repetition is proven to improve long-term memory retention. Right now, users have to export their flashcards to other apps to use this method — integrating it natively would keep everything in GoodNotes and streamline the learning process.

  17. (Screenshot) Basically if I highlight/write on my iPad it won't show aligned on my computer but the stuff I do my computer will show correct on my computer only. Is very frustrating, it keeps happening and it happened on my friends goodnotes too!

  18. Subject: Suggestion: Option to disable auto-switch from eraser to pen

    Message:
    Hi team,
    Could you please add an option to turn off the auto-switch from eraser back to pen?
    It would make the workflow more flexible. Thanks!

  19. I am currently summarizing 400 pages of slides for my studies on Learn sets and learning with the smart learn. Unfortunately, I'm missing a mega important feature: I can't search my learning sets to see whether I've already recorded topics or questions or whether I still need to record them. A search function for the learning sets would be very essential here.
    Hopefully, this shouldn't be too much effort, so that I can search within my flashcards.

  20. I would like to suggest a setting option where I can customize the dark blue bar on top (has all of the tools and tabs). I would even be happy if I could switch it to just black or white.
