  1. Reorganisation. In notebooks you’re able to move pages around after creating them. You can’t do this for cards which seems weird. Would also be nice to create the same outlines with this feature.

  2. When working with numerous graphs, it is challenging to achieve curves that accurately capture the trends of my data or functions. It would be beneficial to have more freedom in drawing curves. Adding additional points beyond the standard three would take the app to the next level

  3. When hitting the return key for zoom window have it return to the next line under the first character of the previous written line. When taking hierarchical notes it’s annoying to have to constantly move the box manually and truly makes it unusable for taking notes this way. Adding a dotted reference to the start of the first character would also be helpful.

  5. The new GoodNotes 6 has an annoying habit of erasing random words as I write them. I'd love to send this to your support page, but it seems pretty one-way. There's no one word that erases, no set pattern that causes it. I didn't have this problem with the identical useage in GoodNotes 5.

  8. Add a sync button on the main bar to the different goodnotes platforms. I simultaneously work between goodnotes on my MacBook and iPad. It rarely auto syncs in real-time. I need back out of my current document in both platforms, go into settings, go into icloud settings, and then click use icloud. I toggle off in both then toggle on in both for my changes to sync real-time. It's a nuisance. I love goodnotes otherwise.

  11. The ability to create fast flashcards by using the lasso tool on notebooks.

    Currently, to study and get asked with the study mode we have to adapt our notes to flashcards mode.

    This is really annoying: we have to do all the notes of our notebooks in a Flashcard template, or we have to write again our notes in the flashcards in the Study set.

    Is really tedious and redundant to create notes and afterward to write again your notes in flashcards(my current situation)

    I believe we should add the next feature:

    • The availity in a notebook to create Questions/answers…

  12. In the new update you hided the thickness of the pen under the button. Its very uncomfortable. Can you please consider to let the person to change settings (tool panel) himself — those who need more colors, would be able to hide the thickness,,, and others will be able to hide more colors.

    Thank you!

  13. In the thumbnail view, in addition to displaying all pages, favourites and outlines (as at present), it would be really useful to have a further option of being able to view pages where notes, marks or highlights have been inserted- using the pen or highlighter. This is really useful when reviewing a long document, and being able to get to significant parts of it because they have been marked up.

  15. Hey

    I‘m studying philosophy and we have a lot of PDFs we have to read. While reading it is sometimes necessary to make notes beside the text, but often the PDF itself does not give enough space to properly write anything.

    Currently I use the MarginAdjuster app (on iPad) to extend the space left/right to each PDF page and THEN import it into GoodNotes.

    It would be awesome to have some similar functionality directly in the app itself.

    Thanks!

  16. On GoodNotes, I have different slide packets for classes, I have to open them one at a time by selecting one, going to back, then selecting another one. If there was a select button to open multiple documents at once, it would be great

  17. Add an option in settings where the pages flip over like a real book does. Like the iOS reading app does.

  18. Similar to bookmarks or outline, make it possible to see higlighted quotes / pages.
    For easier referencing and reading important - highlighted information.

  19. To set the thickness of the pen/highlighter, the manual line space (when you deactivate "Automatic") etc. you have to move a slider to the left/right.
    Left to the slider is a number showing the current setting. The number updates, when you move the slider or press on the "minus"/"plus" symbol next to it.

    It would be great, if you could add an additional feature, where I can just tap on the number left to the slider and change the value by typing in the desired number.

    This would save a lot of time. Specially when you want to set the…
