  1. Have GoodNotes auto sync into iCloud drive similar to how it can sync for Google Drive. I'd like for my notes to be accessible through the apple files app, since it's so commonly used when using Apple devices.

  2. We really need to provide an online image feature similar to the one shown in the picture. It needs to be like a GIF, and it's very much needed.

  4. Why can't GoodNotes find certain words from inserted images when I use the search feature? The goodnotes team should really implement an optical character recognition feature, like the ones that one note and notability has. It is so disappointing that we are unable to search for words in a document with images, which would help a lot of students studying in med professions.

  5. Now that graphs are an option, I would like to see this being improved and features being added. I use GoodNotes for maths a lot and I would want to add two graphs in one graph view, set an interval to a graph, recolor the graphs, display intersections with other graphs or the x-axis, support for calculus and equation solving algorithms to find parameters for a polynomial, for instance. That would be beneficial.

  6. Ich finde GoodNotes wirklich toll, und tatsächlich sogar besser als One Note von Microsoft. Aber eine wichtige Funktion fehlt mir, das Einfügen von Musikdateien und Videos, oder die Implementierung von YouTube- Videos. Ich benötige als Lehrer dieses Funktion unbedingt. Dann ist das Arbeiten im Whiteboard wirklich eine angenehme Sache.

  7. Make the import og PowerPoint files better, most of the time all the design is ruined and some of the text is covered so its impossible to use

  8. I think it would be an excellent feature to have a seamless integration of numbers or excel with Goodnotes. Basically the idea would be to connect a spreadsheet with your notes in order to be able to insert Numbers' or Excel's tables and plots that can be dynamically updated every time you modify the spreadsheet.

  9. When taking handwritten notes or when reading a document, I will highlight important parts that I would like to come back to in the future. It would be very beneficial if there was an option to view all highlights in a document kind of like how when reading on a Kindle you can highlight quotes and then go back and review those quotes. This would make looking for specific information much more user-friendly.

  11. When I leave my iPad on Goodnotes it never closes by itself despite my iPad being on the 2 minute shut off time. On every other app it shuts down by itself but Goodnotes. Can we implement something that hinders this? It wastes a lot of battery

  12. I'm using Goodnotes on iPad mainly on stage as a guitarist. As I'm not using real sheet music but have my own note-taking scheme, Goodnotes is the perfect tool for me. On stage I'm also using a bluetooth foot-switch (Boss FS1-WL) which is sending HID commands such as "Right arrow" to turn the next page in Goodnotes and it's working well.
    However I have the need to select the next "Performance" on my Amp-Modeler (this can be any MIDI device) at the same time. As the Foot-switch is only able to either being in HID- OR MIDI-mode, this is not…

  13. Please add Logitech Muse support!

    Being able to write notes will make the Vision Pro's version of Goodnotes really helpful.

  14. Allow Notebooks from Goodnotes to be uploaded/shared (to Chatgpt/email/etc) directly from Goodnotes without needing to export it first, as it takes up double the space on the computer; plus it exports as a zip file when its more than 1 notebook, making bulk sharing/uploading very tedious

  15. Ability to sync using Google Drive rather than iCloud. Right now you can only backup to Google Drive. There should be seamless integration with Google Drive (similar to PDF Expert.)
