  1. Goodnotesにチャット機能(ChatGPTレベルのAIボット、主に使い方を教えてくれる)をつけると良いと思うのですが、いかがでしょうか? 日本語のappストアのレビューを見てみると、Goodnotesの上手な使い方や設定方法を知らない人が非常に多いな…と感じます。

  2. A two-way sync would allow me to synchronize the data over multiple devices.
    This means that a backup on Nextcloud can be restored without the need to import each document separately.

    Additionally, it allows the user to share documents with others and sync any changes made to the document.

    This would a huge productivity boost for
    - students in Germany
    - enterprise users

  4. Make it possible for the app to recognise a rhombus shape and enhance shape recognition in general. Sometimes when I make small circles it detects them as ovals or worse as squares. For my use case this problem is a huuge limitation.

  6. Allow the user to specify a default notebook for quick notes. If not specified, use a system default notebook. Never close an open notebook when starting a new quick note (open the specified default notebook or the system default notebook in a new tab if they are not already open)

  7. My most used goodnotes notebooks are drastically different page sizes. I often have to switch the font continuously or duplicate an existing text box in the destination notebook in order to have the proper sized font.

  8. Let a person who added a lock to a file or notebook at least be able to delete it since only one password is used for everything you lock. Especially if they’re trying to have a medical folder due to their HIPPA rights. I mean seriously I can’t even lock my medical information folder now.

  9. Assign tools to long press — e.g. long press to switch to eraser, release to go back to the previous tool. It’s faster and more reliable than double tap or the current long press toolbar (which isn’t that useful most of the time).

    A lot of students at my uni prefer Notability just for this feature — especially since scribble-to-erase isn't always accurate. also the scribble to erase is sometimes not precise enough or just does'nt work 100% of times so long press really is a deal breaker.

  10. While scribble to erase works with pen, it is not working with pencil. That option should be added.

  11. I would love it if we would be able to have notes on the side of our pages for easier annotating. Whenever I upload a PDF of some sort, I find it difficult to keep all my annotations spaced out on the page, especially with uploaded textbook pages where there is a lot of text and very small margins. Being able to add images and diagrams to the side for note taking would also be great, as sometimes I want to see it as a reference but don't actually want it on my page. The sticky note feature doesn't suit…

  13. Please add this! I love good notes so much but I use an iPad and Samsung phone. I really want to be a digital planner girlie but I don't want to bring my bulky iPad everywhere! I'm so jealous of the iPhone users!

  14. I have huge study sets (hundreds of flashcards). I would love to be able to set a limit for daily flashcards (e.g. 50 / day, similar to Anki), since I find it very demotivating to see a number like 150 flashcards due, especially, after I created new ones.

  16. The new Woodnotes 6 is packed with great functionality. For some people.

    as a user who primarily (99%) writes in my native Swedish language, the experience has actually gotten worse (GN6 interpret my Swedish as wrongfully written English and tries to change it).

    Why do I have to pay extra for a worse product?

    Please offer a version without the language-dependent features for a reduced cost. I have supported GN for a VERY long time, but this makes me feel scammed. Other features that are non-language dependent are making GN6 worth an upgrade, but it's not fair that I have…

  18. Do you know what the most frustrating thing about Goodnotes is? EXPORT TO PDF!!
    When you export to PDF the filename is hidden behind the IPad keyboard!!!
    Can you PLEASE for the love of God fix this? It was there in Goodnotes 5 and it's still there in Goodnotes 6

  19. I am silly and forgot my password, I can still access what I have locked using Touch ID but would really appreciate the ability to reset a forgotten password so I can continue using the feature for other notebooks!

  20. Right now it is only possible to add an entire page to the Custom Outline or create a link to an entire page.

    It would critically enhance productivity if users were able to select some parts of the notebook and add it as a section in the outline, or create a link to a specific section or line of text.

    It should be possible to for instance mark some content such as handwritten text, an image, an Element, a Textbox etc. and either add it to the outline with a customized name, or create a link to some content.

    Personally,…
