  2. To better facilitate organization of various documents that may need to be simultaneously accessible, assigning opened documents' tabs a provisional color designation would prove useful (with an option to set said color designation as definitive for future instances).

  4. Ich wünschte mir eine Übersichtsfunktion bei dem Lernset, damit man eine Übersicht aller Karten hat ohne alle durchzuswipen zu müssen.

    Englisch:

    I would like to see an overview function on the learning set so that you have an overview of all the cards without having to swipe through them all.

  5. There is already a feature of tracking handwritings when replaying the audio recordings. But it is more useful to know which slides/pages you are looking at when the audio is recorded, especially for med school.

    That way, there is no need to write each intricate details that your lecturer has said. If you’re reviewing, and you found a page that is pretty confusing, you just need to replay the recording of that page. Right now, you still need to listen back minutes of recordings just to search for a short second long clip. It is pretty time consuming.

  6. Loving the new autocorrect, you should add one specifically for British ways of spelling English words Aswell as American. For example Colour vs Color

  7. Ich fände es gut, wenn die erstellten Gliederungspunkte nach den Aufzählungszeichen in die richtige Reihenfolge gebracht werden würden.

    Aktuell besteht das Problem, dass Good Notes willkürlich die Gliederungsebenen in der Reihenfolge ändert.

    Beispiel:

    II. p. 25
    A. p. 25
    I. p. 25
    III. p. 26

    statt

    A. p. 25
    I. p. 25
    II. p. 25
    III. p. 26

    Die Reihenfolge, die Goodnotes bestimmt, folgt anders als man denkt, nicht der Erstellungszeit.

    Eine Verbesserung an der Stelle wäre dringend nötig, da die Gliederung, ansonsten der Willkür des Programms ausgesetzt ist.

  9. Someone who's learning Japanese may face the same problem as me. Every time I need to write/insert the Furigana (pronunciation of Kanji) manually for the Kanji that I don't know how to read. It would be great if there's a button to do that automatically like MS Word and ios Pages.

  10. It would be great if we could add a means to share or back up the slots themselves stored as pen color codes or type pen color codes. If you back up your iPad with iTunes, you can save the color code, but I think it's a function that you need when you want to reinstall and use the app.

  11. It would be fantastic to be able to have a document with a password and change the name of the recordings and be able to share them, and to have an AI tool for voice transcription, and for the photographs to have a function where the text is not covered but moves

  13. I feel that the flashcards would be perfect if I was able to flip them and get tested on the "answer" side. when I'm studying a language, I want to be able to get tested on both languages. And if it's possible, it would be amazing to be able to mess with the setting and get a mix of either side of the flashcards in a study sesh. Also the ability to randomise flashcards would be great. In general, more customisation for how we want to be tested would be awesome. Other than that, I'm really happy with this flashcard…

  14. So, basically, I got .goodnotes file (digital planner imported from pdf) and when I make export file as pdf editable with annotations and background - it creates pdf file (yeey) but most part of hyperlinks are missing, or some layer of text is missing.
    For example - hyperlink to January, February will work, but April will not. Also I did re-check exported pdf into foxit reader - and it also shows that there is no particular hyperlinks but my main file do has. So it means, there is this annoying bug.

    Also, on iPad 9th gen Goodnotes 5 (last updated…

  15. I'd like to transition to using GoodNotes exclusively for studying because of its fantastic study set feature. However, I'm facing a challenge in exporting my flashcards from Anki to GoodNotes. The problem arises due to the presence of pictures and highlights in my flashcards. It would be greatly appreciated if a solution could be found to address this issue.

  17. A mini favorites toolbar to add our favorite colors for pens, highlighters, eraser, etc. would be nice to move around on the screen like in Notability!

  18. i have lots of notebooks, some use the same exact colors all the time and some vary each use. i’d love to be able to set a color palette to one notebook, like my planner, and be able to just always have those colors set aside and set as favorites when i switch into that notebook.

  19. Ability to insert both titles and photos to each comment. The only option today is an automatic serial number as a title and only typing text as a comment.

  20. I think these two text alignment buttons in apple notes- as shown in the attached image -give more freedom and more alignment degrees than the 3 buttons options in goodnotes which are less functioning( i.e. just extreme right , center , extreme left )
