  2. I would love a format that is similar to a word processor so when I add or delete a section on a page it automatically resizes the pages joining accordingly.

  3. If you press Clear page and quickly swipe, you actually clear the page you swiped to, and not the current page. This is very annoying, and almost never what you actually want. Can you make Clear page always clear the current page?

  5. Like the new Ask Goodnotes feature, AI may be used to generate properly formatted tests in app from multiple notebooks or folders. There can be various test modes like MCQ based, Subjective, True/False etc.

  7. It would help if one could move Cards between different decks. Merging multiple Card Decks into one session would also be helpful for the smart study Mode

  8. I've seen really mixed reviews—some people love it, while others say it's full of bugs and practically unusable. Is it still worth buying? Should I go for Goodnotes 5 instead? Or would another app be a better choice?

    For context, I'm in high school and plan to keep using it in snake game, where quick reflexes and a good appetite are all you need to dominate the leaderboard.

  9. As a high school teacher, it is important for us to let panel head acknowledge and check our markings on students' works. Also, collaborative work could not be done because each goodnotes classroom folder could not invite other teachers to edit or view content. This highly increases the inconvenience and decreases the possibility in transferring files to the other teachers concerned.

  10. Especially the highlighter - this is a standard Powerpoint document exported as a PDF and this is the largest highlighter size! It barely covers the title! Honestly having the maximum being absolutely huge would also be helpful if we may like to shade a whole background with a highlighter colour. Currently to get bigger highlighter regions I make a small rectangle with the highlighter and then select it as an object and enlarge it - I also wish we could adjust the width and height differently in that selection mode!

  13. I purchased a notebook that already has hyperlinks, but there are permanent edits I want to do to a couple pages. Which was require the merge layer function like in procreate. I would just take the page and edit in procreate as I have the app but then I would have to add all the hyperlinks back into the page or through out the whole notebook. That is too time consuming. So I would be nice to merge layers I create down to the notebook page so it’s a permanent part of the page. Same thing would be helpful if…

  14. A update for audio transcript for the 9th gen iPad should be made as other note taking apps allow you to do audio transcription on almost relatively new generations of iPads. No reason to pay for goodnotes and while only certain feature are only available to people who have certain iPads.

  15. Hello I really enjoy studyset feature.
    My only complaint is that the card is too small even in the landscape mode in ipad mini/pro.
    Could we make the interface like the one in the second screenshot?
    Also, it would be amazing if we can do pinch zoom in the studyset cards.

  16. When you answer math problems you always need double lines under the answer (at least in Norway), so in addition to dotted lines etc. add double lines as its own, if you try to make to automatic straight lines close to each other they just pull into each other and become one line instead of two

  18. If linked to the outline, the pages linked will guide me to the content I linked.
    Example for current situation:
    If I add one page before the content I wish to link on Document A, the current linked page will move to the next page from page 7 to page 8. And when I click on the link on Document B, it will still guide me to Document A, page 7. But the actual content has already moved to page 8 cause of adding a page.

  20. I like to use black background with white ink as primary ink (I believe it is good for my oled pixels).
    I like to use other colour inks here and there for emphasis.
    I would love a feature that turns things as follows

    Black background——————> White background
    White ink —————————> Black ink
    Other colour ink. ——————-> no change

    Because that would be the most ideal way to print something
    (Of course I can do these with existing features, but it will take a lot of time depending on amount of notes I make)
