  3. I would like to have the option to easily switch between my dark template and close-to white font and a lighter background with a darker font.
    Could be integrated into the template side. Eg contrast colors.
    Or just with the shift from light to dark mode.

    → it is really hard to search for words in my texts while having a dark template. There just isn’t enough contrast to show me the highlighted words; thus, I always have to change template and color…

  7. Notes meet Calendar

    I love the feature in the Agenda app where you can assign a note to a particular upcoming meeting. would be very nice if i could not only have every page of my notes dated and timed but also if I could assign one or more pages to a meeting in my calendar. This would require seamless integration with calendar apps like exchange or fantastical or gmail, but if done right would be epic.

    picture this scenario:

    I work in a corporate job and I am in a strategy meeting with the CEO who gives me certain…

  9. When I am using the new feature audio recordings, I have to write over my work with a pen in order to see what I am referring to on the video. It would be nice to be able to use the existing laser pointer in the video and for it to come through on the video when I watch it later in time.

  11. Hi,

    Study set is a great fonctionality.
    I would love to use it to learn new languages.

    Currently, I am forced to write in question the word I would like to learn, in answer the answer in my native and do an other card with as question the word in native and as answer the word I want to learn.

    It is time consuming. Can it be a part of Study Set to be able to revert and learn it as well ?

    Thank you.

  12. It would be nice to edit drawn lines (line weight, pen type, line type) in addition to color.

    I often have to delete a line and redraw it if I need a more bold line.

  13. Display the thumbnails of the pages of the pdf of the left hand side on iPad. Like the Preview app. It would allow for easier page changes and going back and forth between pages.

  14. When I airdrop a Goodnotes 6 file or page to someone using GoodNotes 5, it crashes down and the folder to which the page has been added can‘t be opened any more. Especially at school this is a big problem - all our pupils use GoodNotes 5, some teacher use Goodnotes 6. And now I can only airdrop pdf files, which does not allow the children to move around bits of text. Please make the two versions compatible.

  15. Eu reparei que vocês tem um modelo de educação interativa para alguns vestibulares na plataforma de vocês. Procurei por provas como o Enem ou a Fuvest, mas infelizmente não encontrei. Gostaria de pedir para vocês implementarem exercícios para esses testes Brasileiros que são bastante populares! Mesmo que não fosse gratuito como os outros eu pagaria para ter acesso!

  16. Goodnotes 5 has been superb as a notetaking app. Goodnotes 6 is following the path of other apps to add features, change structures and increase file sizes with cosmetic changes that don’t improve efficiency or effectiveness. Microsoft OneNote has many features and much of what Goodnotes 6 offers. The extra features don’t improve navigation or effectiveness and make the app clunky. Rather than have one app that must DO everything, if you want to add features, create two. One that is great for notetaking and one that adds the frills, takes extra space and add “glitter”

    Goodnotes has been superb…

  17. Flashcards Zoom

    There are already a couple of hands full entries to the same subject “Zoom function” with Flashcards.

    Unfortunately each entry has some Thumbs - all together would be many!

    Actually Zoom is really important, is critical because often you can not read their cards because everything is to small.

  18. We can do that by opening an other doc, but it isn’t ergonomic.

    Having the option where you can choose one sheet of the bloc note and stick it to the side would be an improvement.

  19. Can you guys make it possible to edit and adjust the last modified date and time (similar to google photos) for notebooks it would be really helpful with keeping the notes sorted in order of last modified but also being able to make changes on the notes without them getting moved all the way to the start if we don't want them to be this would be an extremely helpful tool for university students especially it would be greatly appreciated if you could add this feature ASAP and also please include this on Goodnotes for Windows which I'm using and…
