  1. It would be really helpful if it was possible to stack pages, meaning that when scrolling through the notebook only the first page of that stack (for example a PDF or PowerPoint) would be visible and you would have to swipe left/right to see the rest. This way it would be easier to keep an overview and find notes more quickly without having to scroll to through dozens of pages, especially when you insert lots of multi-page documents/powerpoints.

  2. It would be great if you could do different things with different types of clicks and pressure with the Apple Pencil.

    In addition to a better distinction between the pencil and the finger, that if you touch a link with the finger it opens and with the pencil it does not do anything or it can be edited (it depends)

    Other useful things could be done with one, two or a hold click of the pencil and finger.

    For example, if you click (with Apple Pencil or finger) on the pen thicknesses, it will quickly change between the predefined thicknesses…

  5. Instead of searching indexed text, I want to be able to search with a handwritten phrase/drawing. The result would be whatever looks most similar in my handwriting. This would be a game changing feature.

  8. As a student I use my Goodnotes notes as a book and record each class, I love this feature but I would love to be able to organice the recording by date, and be able to see the Pages it belongs to. THANKS A LOT

  10. The pricing for the yearly version is pretty fair, but I would like the option to pay once for the current version of Goodnotes. It would also be good to have a discounted fee to upgrade to future versions of Goodnotes (e.x. moving from 5 to 6 when it comes out)

  12. There are TONS of default fonts I will NEVER use but I have also downloaded a lot from iFont. However, I constantly have to weed through all the system fonts to get to the ones I use regularly to see which font looks best for a particular section of text.

  13. Quand on arrive à la fin d’une page, une nouvelle doit suivre automatiquement.
    Possibilité de figer une image, que le texte passe directement à la ligne si une image est a côté,…

    Un bouton qui nous permet de scroller avec le pencil

    Pouvoir créer une flèche,… directement et parfaitement.

    Permettre de choisir la police et la taille lors de la saisie de texte.

    Pouvoir enregistrer des factures pour les copier/ coller plus tard.

  14. I think Goodnotes is the best note-taking application out there and offers more features and ability than any of its competition, which is why I think that Goodnotes should do more for IT-Students. A code tool as an option for text-fields, enabling syntax-highlighting, video and website embeds, as well as a code preview would be amazing. Also I had this idea of being able to make automations, since AI can now write in our handwriting. Such automations could look like this:
    1. On every 10th page, a variable called date is placed 10 px from the top and the left.…

  16. Why not use Microsoft Notes app feature where user can tap anywhere on the page or canvas and start typing to freely “drop/appear” text on any spot of the page? Apply this principle to Cornell page layout space - leftmost column (make sure text don’t get cut off by page lines - reduce readability).

  18. To make space for the microphone/recording icon (perhaps for the sake of symmetry) the bookmark icon was removed. There is now no visual feedback of for a page being bookmarked.

    One on hand, I use this feature with my planner to add the current week to favorites for a quick retrieval. On the other hand I will never use the recording feature.
    My dismay at this new development is self evident and so is my wish for a future positive resolution for my quandry.

  19. I hope you can also add a pen that automatically erases over time.
    I think it would be good to use it when it's cumbersome to erase one by one or erase the page at once when solving a problem.
