  1. Can you please expand the intelligent GoodNotes 6 AI handwriting Tools with additional tools, showed at Apples WWDC 24 in the Notes App (SmartScript). I would like to see these features in GoodNotes, such as:

    1. My favourite feature: An in GoodNotes integrated AI Model that automatically improves your hand writing style in your personal writing style, as you write with Apple Pencil in GoodNotes.

    2. Also very important for me: An AI Feature that can transform your typed text into your handwritten Notes in your own writing style, if you paste the typed text in GoodNotes.

    3. An feature that enables the…

  2. Remettre le bouton pour écrire du texte (au lieu de appui prolongé -> commencer à saisir, remettre le bouton qui permet de directement commencer à saisir)
    Ce serait un gain de temps énorme lors de la prise de note en cours, rédaction, etc

  3. As a student I very much miss some options for the study set feature:

    For example needed are features like…

    • overviewing ALL of the study sets
    • Moving cards from one study set to another/putting sets together
    • Changing layouts for flashcards
    • Import study sets in bulk from e.g. CSV files
    • Plan when which study set should be learned
    • Use tags in study sets and filter for them

    • Choose which study sets are currently interesting and a „pause“ function

  4. GoodNotes is great, and I really like the audio recording feature. However, right now, recordings are only displayed as a list within the note, and their names are set by default and cannot be customized. This makes it hard to associate specific recordings with the content of the notes. My lecture notes are often very long (over 300 pages), and after some time, I have no idea which recording corresponds to which section of the notes. I hope GoodNotes can support a feature where a recording can be dragged or inserted directly into the document and displayed as an icon…

    1. AI Text-to-Handwriting Transformation:
      It would be great to have an AI feature option that transforms typed text into your handwriting style when pasted into GoodNotes. This feature would ensure your notes look personalized and maintain a consistent handwriting style, even when using typed text.

    2. AI-Powered Handwriting Style Improvement:
      Another useful addition would be an AI model that improves your handwriting with AI in your writing style automatically as you write with the Apple Pencil. This feature would enhance legibility while keeping your unique handwriting style.

  5. I'm using the new beta version on my iPad and I need the writing option back– the option where you can write like in words. This feature is very useful for school and writing notes fast. It has do be added back in in the new beta version!

  7. Please create gestures for SHIFT, TAB, RETURN and CAPS LOCK for Apple Pencil in Scribble mode when using textbox.

    If one is trying to keep notes neat by using textbox instead of pen, this system becomes very clunky. If you want to abbreviate, make a list or write notes in an organized fashion on the fly, like in class lectures for instance, you have to use Apple Pencil with assistance from either an external hardware keyboard or the touch screen keyboard. It slows everything down. I sometimes miss valuable information fiddling around with these keyboards.

    I’ve tried using handwriting conversion…

  8. Der reine Tastaturmodus verschwindet in der Beta. Das ist schade weil die Mischung aus Tippen und schreiben immer sehr gut war. Den kann man drin lassen. Außerdem kann dieser Verbessert werden das er zum Beispiel mehr so ist wie Word

  9. If you like to use the lasso tool to move - let‘s say - only textboxes, then you have to deselect all other categories manually. When you are done moving textboxes, then you want to select every category, then you have to manually turn on everything.

    It would be great, if you can turn on/off all the categories. There should be a box called „all“ on top of all categories.

  10. For built in comments could you make a section where you could look at all the comments you made throughout the notes and when you click on the comment in the section, it takes you to that comment wherever it is located

  11. I wish the font menu could stay open as you preview your text or text box in various fonts, and also remember your place in the font list instead of going back to top of the custom fonts menu each time.

    Currently, the process goes as follows: select the box or the text > open the fonts menu > go to custom fonts > choose a font > font menu closes and you see what your text looks like in the selected font.

    Next, reopen the fonts menu > go to custom fonts > scroll back through the custom fonts…

  12. With the current iPad update (Liquid glass), it makes the split screen feature FAR more volatile (closes with hand touches when writing) and reduces space available to write in (as the middle part now takes up more). It also feels very visually unpleasing, as it doesn't fill up all corners..

    It would be nice if there were an inapp version to split documents that optimizes space. It would be even NICER if we could have the main toolbar stretch along the two documents.

  14. Currently you are unable to use scribble to erase in the zoom window. I love the scribble feature and I’ve become very reliant on it that I can’t use the feature of the zoom window. I would love to use it and be able to see my full page but it is annoying having to undo or use the eraser

  15. I use different colors and sizes to signify different things in my notes (ex. disease name, symptoms, risk factors, pathological findings...). I would like the option to have more presets in the toolbar rather than having to keep changing the presets because I have used all of the available ones already.

  16. I am an iPad user and frequently work with GoodNotes using an external mouse.

    However, I noticed that several tools in the app are not fully supported when using a mouse. In particular, the highlighter tool cannot be used properly with mouse input, which significantly limits productivity for users who prefer or rely on this type of interaction.

    I would like to suggest the implementation of full mouse support for the highlighter tool and other drawing features. Adding this functionality would greatly enhance the user experience and make GoodNotes even more versatile for those using the app in desktop-like workflows.

  18. I am a masters student who uses good notes to read and highlight all my articles. I think that adding a reference managing option, to keep all my notes, articles highlights and references will have a lot of value, especially when working on projects such as thesis or dissertation, where there are a lot of articles to read and manage. It will be great to manage my references in the same place

  19. Hello, I recently upgraded to GoodNotes 6 and encountered several usability regressions that are severely impacting my workflow. I would like to request clarification and support regarding the issues below.

    Issues
    1. The Text Box tool automatically switches back to the Lasso tool after one use.
    When inserting multiple text boxes consecutively, I must manually reselect the Text Box tool every time. This significantly disrupts productivity.
    2. Bulk font editing using the Lasso tool is no longer available.
    In previous versions, selecting multiple text items and changing their font at once was possible. This feature was essential for efficient editing,…
