  1. Open file options

    I see “More Sort options in library” in the frequently requested features, not sure this will include the option of “most frequently used” and “Recently opened” options, wish they will be there. Thanks

  2. Import MS PPT with the original font and animatio

    When I try to import ppt created in MS PPT it seems changed the alignment of the texts, and the font changed to the default device font - but this works in PPT in the same device. and if there is an option to show the animations like in ppt it will be better. because as a teacher I use Goodnotes as presentation in my video class. and the laser tool is very use full for the students. and if there is the animation option also included it will be more use full and engaging. Thank you.

  3. Sticky notes

    It would be great to have the option to move a sticky note off to the side in the grey area. Some docs that I edit using goodnotes don’t allow enough space to add a sticky note sticker to the page and write on top of it.

  4. Landscape ppt page size auto adjust to rest of my a4 notes size.

    Please Goodnotes add a feature that will automatically adjust my class ppt file pages( which are mostly landscape sizes - not a4 which I love using) to rest of my a4 pages size. Or even vice verca ( a4 to landscape). In Freenotes I could have done that easily. I loved goodnotes writing experience so I had shifted here but now I have to entire convert first my class ppt pages online or in freenotes from and then add to goodnotes. What's the use of having a paid app. Please please add this feature, it's almost a basics feature needed.…

  5. Option to only download documents from the cloud when needed

    I feel like there should be an option to A) always keep documents on device & the cloud or B) just the cloud and only have Goodnotes fetch data when needed from the cloud. It's annoying how Goodnotes takes up 5GB of storage on my phone when it's not the main device I use to take notes on and only really use the app on my phone to review stuff for an exam - I don't even use most of my notebooks on my phone! If we'd have the option to only have Goodnotes download data from the cloud when…

  7. 增加個別文件持續關閉pdf大綱

    有時匯入的文件會有內建的pdf大綱，雖然可以勾選掉，但重新打開該文件又要去操作一次關閉pdf大綱，開開關關浪費很多時間。希望讓每個文件的顯示大綱能夠客製化，讓關掉pdf大綱之後下次打開是自己再去勾選顯示pdf大綱才會再顯示。

  9. TYPE IN PAGE NUMBERS TO LINK PAGES TOGETHER

    ALLOW END USERS TO TYPE IN PAGE NUMBERS WITHIN THE ADD LINK FEATURE.

    SCROLLING CAN BE VERY TIME CONSUMING WHEN YOU HAVE OVER 1000 PAGES.

    TYPING IN THE PAGE NUMBERS WOULD BE QUICK AND EFFICIENT.

  11. when typing in double column

    When typing in a double column, only the left column is used and the right column cannot be typed. Please improve the left column typing so that the right column typing can also be connected naturally.

  13. Use hand-drawn symbols such as stars etc to bookmark a region of pdf text.

    instead of interrupting reading workflow by requesting user to bookmark a whole page with extra clicks, allow user to use predefined handdrawn flags (stars, exclamation mark etc) to bookmark a region of page (or whole page). Provide a dedicated tab in preview to quick go to these areas.

  18. Element/ Sticker Search Bar

    A search bar when you select the “Element” tool so you can search for specific types of sticker. Ex: “Check mark” or “Red Book”. I have a few huge sticker packs and it takes forever trying to find a specific sticker.

  20. ‘Printout’ pages in imported PDFs as moveable images + embedded file icons

    Have the ‘printout’ function like in OneNote that automatically coverts the pdf pages into images lined up on your goodnotes page. This could also come with being able to embed larger files into the page as a single icon, rather than having all of the pages take up more space in your actual notes.
