  2. We should be able to add multiple elements or stickers and make them the same size with a precision sizing tool. If I put down 3 memo pad stickers and I want all 3 to be the same size, there shouldn’t be a constant resizing from the corner sizer. We could click on the sticker or element and put in a font size or pixel dimensions.
    Or an option as we are placing it to choose the size. Either way something to keep stickers and other elements consistent in size from page to page and even on the same page…

  3. PDF around the page, not very smooth, can you improve the page effect? I'm referring to the sensitivity of PDF page-turning, as I didn't have this problem with Notability

  5. When starting up the app on the Mac, the window always has the same size.
    So, always the first action is to resize it, so I can see my relevant folders.
    If the app would just keep the size across restarts, it would be a more fluent work experience.

  6. When arranging objects I would like to be able to send back and forward some items between items. If I have more than two overlapping objects, it’s a pain to place objects in the order I want. For example, there are apps the send the object completely to the back or front, but I can also send forward or backwards the object not entirely to the back. I don’t want to send back an object but then have to send front the other and the other to have them in the correct arrangement. This happens when working a collage or…

  8. Hello, I would like to transfer the passages in the text that I have marked with the highlighter into a summary. The summary should work in the same way as in the LiquidText or MargineNote 4 program.

  9. I would like the highlight tool to work as a copy select tool works. When moving the pen along page we will be able to highlight. As well as implementing tapping to remove highlights.

    Instead of having to lift pen to move down a row to highlight you just glide over the selected text you would like to highlight.

    It would be much more efficient this way. I noticed this inconvenience when switching to apples book reading tool and highlighting in there was much more seamless. Thank you for taking the time to read this if you did.

  12. I’ve been using the app extensively for note-taking and organization, and I believe that the addition of a toggle menu feature would be incredibly beneficial. This feature could streamline navigation and provide a more efficient way to access different sections within the app. By allowing users to toggle between various menus seamlessly, it would make the overall experience more intuitive and user-friendly.

  14. I’m loving the flashcard feature so far, but I have a friend that uses another app that let him to allocate photos and text in the same card and i thought this ideia would improve a lot my studies, and another suggestion that i have in mind is to allow the share feature in the flash cards, because i would like to have a group of studies with my colleagues, tks!

  17. Sometimes I find myself made mistakes about the written content on the card while in study mode, maybe just some spelling mistakes. I hope I can correct them, but I can’t find the option. Once I exit study mode, I can’t find the card any more when there are so many cards in one set. Hope there’ll be a solution for such situation.

  18. Presentation mode is helpful, and I like the laser pointer. However, I would truly appreciate it if we had a quick access 'clear page' that's available, especially in Presentation mode so that we can annotate while teaching and just quickly add notes ⇒ removing them instantly when done.

  19. As I do not need the reminder to learn old study sets of the past semester, I would really look forward to establishing the possibility to deactivate study sets with regards to smart learning. Otherwise I always have to delete my studysets to get no notification any more.

  20. I usually have multiple open documents. When I start GoodNotes on my iPad, it often starts in the files view. To go to my open documents, I need to open a new document (or one that is already open).

    Can you add a button to go from the files view to the documents view?
