  2. Dear Sir or Madam,

    I really enjoy goodnotes, especially to study.
    But there're things that would make it much more enjoyable.
    As an engineering student I write a lot of formulas, so I was wondering how nice it would be, if goodnotes would recognize my written formulas and change them into good-looking formulas.

    The other thing that would be nice, would be a flying or placeable color palette (maybe it flies near to the pencil or to a place where the user puts it)

    I hope my wishes finds you well. :)

    Kind regards

    Dominik Müller

  3. The largest highlighter option isn’t big enough and it would be nice to have an option that is double the size.

  4. I use the highlighter a lot to fill in diagrams and it would be so much easier if I didn't have to do it in one go. Sine it gets darker when it overlaps, the filled in color is only uniform if my pencil stays on the page the whole time.

  5. In main menu, add "custom" order for notebooks and folders. Add this where it says "name", "date", and "type" on the top of the main menu so you can keep the books in an order you prefer.

    Make folders more customizable, add option to change colors of folders or add designs or icons to folders, similar to notebooks so that it is easier to distinguish folders and find them with ease.

    Add a "folders" section to display only folders on the righthand side of the main menu page where it displays "documents" and "favorites". It would also be helpful to…

  7. Sometimes typing or writing out things from other documents or textbooks takes too long. I’d like to just snap a picture of text and have it converted into text that I can edit as necessary.

  10. Continually exporting my notes into pdf result in endless filenames, if the file already exists: „Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of filename.pdf“.

    To prevent this, a checkbox „overwrite, if file exists“ in the pdf-export-options would be very helpful.

  11. I would like to be able to use the select tool when writing with the Zoom window without having to exit this mode.

    I use this app every day and it would be quite helpful if you are able to add this feature :)

  14. When I have my lecture slides open and I create a snapshot from a picture, I always have to - share - copy to clipboard - paste. This is complicated and feels unnatural. Nice would be a simple copy and paste.

  15. After we got “Draw and Hold” mode for pencils to draw perfect shapes, putting an eraser with “Erase Entire Stroke” in the middle of the circle makes the circle be erased. This is quite uncomfortable when I have to edit inside the circle. I wish the circle would be erased only when the eraser touches the boundary.

  16. I like the non-linear note taking that an infinite canvas allows. Especially when doing a pdf paper review over zoom, it is useful to be able to break out to the side of the pdf page and draw illustrations of various points for discussion. When not presenting it can still be useful when note-taking to be able to add notes along side relevant pages/equations in a PDF. Otherwise you end up adding notes in pdfs just as you would in the paper version - constrained to small margin areas or writing over the text, instead of being able to write…

  17. The ability to link a GoodNote to Slack, Evernote, Things etc. Make GoodNote an embedded tool connected to the leading productivity apps ! And of course, the ability to quickly jump between connected notes in different folders/books.

  19. It would be nice to have the option to disable hold to zoom as this will often pop up when I am writing any dots, periods, or multiplication signs (I like to make them fairly visible).
    I'm fairly sure Notability has this, so it would be nice to have this option in this app as well.
