  1. I would like to be able to choose what orientation the fountain draws. I would prefer it be flat like this “—“ rather than slanted “ / “ I have a pencil pro but I would rather it stay flat like this “—“ “than me have to rotate it everytime.

  4. I would love to see continuous numbering across pages in the numbered list format on the typing side of Goodnotes. It drives me a little bit crazy that my list numbers start over when I need to continue onto a new page and my list starts back at "1."!!!

  5. I would like to have an "AI Pencil Enhancement" option Pencil within the GoodNotes pencil bar. This feature would leverage AI to transform rough sketches into refined drawings with clean lines, consistent shapes, and enhanced details. Users could customize the level of refinement and choose from various drawing styles. Such as the Feature Apple presented from Apple Intelligence at WWDC 24.

  6. I use lasso tool to move parts of my diagrams. Until last update, it was selecting only shapes under selected area. I was able to select inner shape from a nested shape. Unfortunately now every time I select a nested shape, the outer shape also move along. This is happening when outer shape is perfect shape (with shape tool). Kindly disable this feature or provide mode to select option.

  7. I think it would be nice if there is a feature to join two markings/Highlight strokes together such that the overlap vanishes

  9. I use quicknotes for all of my notes in class, a separate document for each day of class. It would be nice if I could use the AI feature to ask questions about a whole folder because I don’t always remember what day of class I learned a specific subject.

  10. There could be an option to have text boxes saved in custom locations based on the template. I attached an example if some folks don't know what Cornell notes are, but like having text boxes ready to use in each section of a Cornell Note so there's no reason to click-to-create and resize a new text box on every single page or text boxes already cropped to size in the days/months boxes on a calendar.

    Also please add this even if it this rec doesn't get a ton of votes Goodnotes people because it would SIGNIFICANTLY reduce my studying time.

  11. Masking tapes with colorful patterns and the improvement of shapes such as a heart, star, cloud, conversation bubble like in a comic book, question mark, exclamation mark, brace sign, etc. - all this is offered by other applications

  12. Add GIFs and videos to documents that reproduce! Have a tab where you can write without modifying the original document, similar to "Ask Goodnotes," and allow this window to follow the text being written along with the audio (for example the "notes" option that is on canva). Improve how text boxes are displayed on Mac compared to iPad, as they currently shift position. Enhance the AI for studying to promote active recall (THEA is an excellent example for this). There should also be an option for Goodnotes to automatically generate flashcards from a document.

  14. I would like to ask the Ai to point and highlight specific sections in a PDF/Document based on my prompt. It would be great if it can directly take me to those references, the same way the search is implemented in a browser for specific words, but rather directly take me to those references in my document.

  15. I really like the app, but I think it would be even better with a feature to reverse flashcards. It would be great to switch the question and answer sides to practice both ways. This would help users memorize all aspects of the material more effectively.

  16. I want to keep the original data of the tape feature in GoodNotes, but I need to share it with my friends as a PDF. However, when exporting as a PDF, the tapes remain hidden, which causes problems. I would like a button added that allows me to “Delete all tapes and export” at the time of PDF export.

    Additionally, when using the lasso tool, images move together with the tapes. Therefore, I would like a button to be added that can “Reveal all hidden tapes.”

  17. Android version doesn't have a delete comment button. If there is a feature to add comments, isn't it normal to create a delete function.

  18. Add a justified text option. The centralized and the right/left are not the best ones to organize the text and leaves gaps. It's simple, easy and very experience-changer.

  19. I have 3 issues since the new update (1) Missing the Words: When you select an image, I miss having the words of “comment”, “resize”, “cut”, etc. It’s currently only images of comment box, box or scissors, etc. Which gets confusing because I’m not sure what action I’m about to select. (2) Images/stickers Issues: I can’t crop images/stickers. When I over lap them I can’t move them around individually. I can’t stretch them like I used to be able to either to change their shape. (3) When I draw a box then write in the box and I only want…
