  2. Please introduce the possibility of palm gesture removal since the palm detection doesn't work properly when the iPad is used horizontally.
    When we write on an imported picture, every time the palm touches the screen, GoodNotes switches to the lasso tool, and it's kinda annoying.
    This feature is always on even if the iPad settings say to ignore the palm.

  3. Hi GoodNotes team,

    I’m a heavy GoodNotes user on [iPad / Mac / iPhone] and I absolutely love using the app for studying and taking math/technical notes.

    I’ve noticed that GoodNotes currently doesn’t support inline LaTeX rendering in regular typed text (for example, writing $x^2 + y^2 = 1$ in a text box and having it render as nicely formatted math). I know you have great math / equation tools, but those generate separate equation objects rather than letting us mix math and normal text seamlessly in the same paragraph.

    For students and professionals in math, statistics, physics, engineering, and…

  4. While swiping for a new page, you always get the same page as before - chosing one standard layout would be very helpful. Thank you for consindering it!

  5. The comment pop-up should be resizeable like in Adobe Acrobat.. Also I'd like to be able to add pictures in the comments to make my notes decluttered. And the text should be editable (like in the regular ...bullet points, bold etc)

  6. the sticky notes are searchable while expanded...but the instant you collapse them the content can't be searched..Also image addition to the sticky notes should be feature. And the text in the added images(screenshots) should be searchable as well.

  7. How about you stop changing the layout/form or how thing work. You make it impossible for me. Always changing how tu bullet points are laced out, the padding, saving the default text. Now half my notes are laced out differently and worse form the other half. Genuinely inconsiderate. Making so many unnecessary changes.

  9. How can I undo this last version of Goodnotes 6? I liked it better when the recording symbol wasn’t this horribly obvious as a big orange square. and I like it better when the toolbar didn’t move. Is there a way I can undo this update and back to the previous version of Goodnotes 6?!

  10. currently with the new update, when you import a document to goodnotes, an annoying thing with the new update when you press
    location-> it automatically opens the keyboard to let you search for a folder or document you want to import your document to, but it’s really annoying as if you are on an ipad, using the large keyboard, it blocks half the folders. Of course you can get rid of the keyboard and click on the folder but it is slow and takes up a lot of time when you want to import multiple separate documents quickly from a…

  12. Add a pressure-sensitive eraser that lets users adjust the pressure level. Different pressure intensities determine when the eraser function is activated.

  14. I recently switched to a system in which I'm taking notes using a Rocketbook, then putting those PDF scans into Goodnotes to store and annotate into notebooks for each class. I would love if there was some features for that in particular.

    • The ability to use precision eraser directly on the PDF. (I want to erase this diagram I drew! Or erase it then resize! Having to cover it with a shape is way to finicky, it makes adding new content over the shape very difficult.
    • The ability to edit the color of text! I only use Black pens, so…

  15. Have the ability to anchor an image, text box or handwritten element to one specific part of the page. I often accidentally move something I did not intend to simply because the lasso tool touched it.

  16. The new split screen feature on an ipad is very annoying and difficult to use since the update. As I am using one side of my screen to see powerpoints and articles, and using the others to write notes on, it constantly changes sizes and makes me toggle back and forth and has been very frustrating to use. Please change it back to the 3 dots at the top and make it easier for all students to easily take notes.

  17. I’ve been dealing with a persistent issue for about 8 months now, and it’s becoming a dealbreaker. My iPad Air 11 gets excessively hot and the battery drains at an alarming rate whenever I’m using Goodnotes.

    This has been happening since the very first day I bought the iPad. I have already tried disabling the handwriting recognition and the dictionary/indexing features, but unfortunately, it didn't help at all.

    I am very concerned about the long-term impact on my device. Constant exposure to high temperatures is detrimental to battery health and can lead to permanent hardware degradation. It's disappointing that a…

  18. It would be awesome if we could skew images taken with the app by adjusting the four corners of the rectangular crop independently similar to how microsoft lens works (please see attached photos for example). As it stands I am using that app and then importing the images I take of whiteboards and documents.

  19. It is very frustrating when I want to see the page as a whole by zooming out, but then the page automatically snaps to the edge of the screen (or on top against the toolbar). I want to just see a small buffer space to help visualize each edge of the page. It’s not ideal that I have to add a page above to try and see a full page with its edges. I want to see it as a page view, not pageless.
