  1. I often organize, review, and make comments on multiple large documents that I have imported to Goodnotes. The new comments feature is a great addition, but its value is limited for my use because the pages with comments are not flagged in any way, nor am I able to view all comments. I am forced to either bookmark any page with a comment or add those pages to pdf outlines, which is redundant and crowds up the outlines and favorites.

    It would be very useful if all comments in a document could be viewed collectively in an outline format, with…

  2. Please add a setting to move the page to the left/right side of the display while using the editor so you don’t have to put your hand next to the device while writing.

  3. 1) Apple Pencil “Hover” Not Applied

    The apple pencil “hover” feature does NOT work when using the zoom box. The hover feature only works when writing directly in the main document, without the zoom box activated.

    2) Hold To Convert Does Not Register

    Holding to convert stroke does not register in zoom box or the blue highlighted box that progress page to create writing space.

    example: you’re using the zoom box to write -> the blue highlight box appears to alert you it’s time to progress the text line > you make your next stroke inside of the blue area,…

  7. 저는 아이패드와 서피스를 가지고 업무 및 학습을 하는 사람입니다.
    아이패드는 굿노트5를 무제한 일회성 결제를 해놔 메인 필기용으로 사용하고, 서피스는 무료버전이라 보조작업용으로만 사용해야 하여 불편함이 있습니다
    윈도우버전도 무제한 일회성 결제권 또는 동기화를 통하여 파일을 편하게 양쪽에서 사용하고 싶습니다

  11. Zoom minimum is 25%, I can't zoom out any further, despite still not being able to see the whole page. When I try, it snaps back to 25. I've tried the "add another bigger page" hack and I cannot make it work. Please change the zoom system so we can view an entire page at once.

  12. When using the selection tool, one can choose which type of objects should be selected or ignored with the toggles. This is not possible for shapes, either the ones drawn using the pen and snapping or the ones using the shape tool. Adding a toggle would make things a lot easier.

  14. Text formatting

    • (Some) Markdown support -- including the extended syntax
      • TeX and LaTeX support (like $\TeX or \LaTeX$)
      • Inline code and code blocks -- I'm not expecting syntax highlighting due to security reasons
      • Links
      • Footnotes [^*]

    Styling initial paragraphs

    Most of the time, I style the first sentence of my document as Paragraph, not as Heading.

    With the current unresponsive UI when using on macOS, I have to click Style & Formatting and change the style every single time. It would be great if the app could let me set my styling preference for new documents.

  15. Hi there,

    Being able to collaborate on a documents is excellent.

    I would love the ability to be able to callaborate over bluetooth though. Unfortunately we do not always have the internet available when we are collaborating, and even when we do, we would rather not use the data.
    I imagine this would also result in faster updates when editing a document.

    Thanks

  16. I REALLY REALLY need this feature because I used text boxes as headings in my notes and it wastes wayyyy too much time going in to change the colour each time

    It's such a simple feature I can't believe it hasn't been implemented yet T^T. I would pay ungodly amounts of money for this because it would seriously save me SO MUCH time for note taking

  19. The ability to preserve the links that are added to notebooks when exporting to PDF. This would help immensely to continue to be able to navigate the documents with the hyperlinks that were created in the Goodnotes app. Obviously this would only apply to URLs and the links within the same document, not links to other notebooks but it would still be a huge help!
