  2. I use Goodnotes on my iPad primarily and always keep tabs open for work to refer to at any time easily. I keep these open all the time because it's either a standard of procedure that I reference like my bible or documents pertinent to a project I'm working on over the course of a couple days, weeks, or so.

    I find that sometimes I will accidentally click to close a tab and not know what tab I closed. I would love for a setting to toggle hiding the close tab button to prevent this.

  3. I really love these flashcards, but some adjustments would be great

    1) if I were able to quickly edit a flashcard when in learning mode that would make things a lot easier, I can delete or add something that I just realised it needed.

    2) If they could make it so you can have a preset background colour for your flashcards, rather than having to change the background colour every time you make a new study set.

    • Search sometimes misses words that are already present in the document.
    • Add Match Case and Whole Words search options.
    • Navigate directly to the exact location of the searched word instead of only opening the page.
    • Preserve the current zoom level when jumping to search results.
    • Highlight the searched word after navigation.
    • This would be especially useful in Whiteboard mode, where the large canvas makes precise navigation essential.
    • A search experience similar to PDF Expert would greatly improve speed and productivity.

  4. For function like y=sin(x°), the range and domain are very different ( -1 to 1 vs 0 to 360). The graph displayed is too flat for any visual understanding.
    It would be great to be able to adjust the interval of x/y-axes seperately.

    In desmos, it is done by dragging the x/y-axes with two fingers.
    In Apple Notes, it is auto-adjusted with "centered"

  6. When I want to copy n paste words, it’s really annoying to ask me ‘agree’ everytime. Please add a ‘always agree’ message tickbox.

  7. Remember import destination when sharing PDFs

    When importing a PDF from another app (e.g. Nebo) into Goodnotes 6, the default is always “New Document”. In GoodNotes 5 my workflow was to append the PDF to the currently open notebook. Please add an option in Settings to choose the default import destination (“Current Document” or “New Document”), or simply remember the last selected option. This would save an extra tap on every import and greatly improve workflows for users who frequently import notes from other apps.

  8. It's a bit irritating that the entire image moves when I crop it, when I already have markings on it with the perfect positioning. I would prefer it, if it stays in the same place

  9. Currently, we can add preset colours to pens, highlighters, text, etc. but individually. I think it would be practical if the preset colours were added to every tool instead of having individual preset colours (example: I sometimes want my text to be the same colour as my pen, or my pen the same colour as my pencil, or my highlighter the same colour as my side notes, but I have to go fetch the colour again every time to add it to all the other tools)

    Also, for text boxes, the eye drop tool is not available for the background…

  10. It would be very practical to have the option to "link" to an outline instead of a page. Currently, if you add a link to a page (let’s say page 6) and you add a new page before, your page has become page 7, but the link still goes to page 6. The links don’t follow the content, only the page numbers so it is not practical at all to add internal links.

  12. Every time I erase something with "Erase Highlighter Only" enabled, I get a popup asking if I want to disable the setting. When I hit "ignore," the popup goes away, but then it comes back the next time I erase something! I do, in fact, sometimes want to erase highlighter only. The "ignore" button should prevent the popup from happening at all, maybe until the next time I change the setting

  13. The June 2026 update removed Undo and Redo from the Top Bar of GoodNotes 5 when in split screen. I use Undo constantly when taking notes. The option to customize the toolbar is disabled for me, so I can’t add Undo to the toolbar either.

    Please add Undo back to the top bar when running in split screen, or allow customizing the toolbar so that I can add it there.

  14. I want you to return it so that "Select" and "Select All" can be selected immediately when surrounding the text. It used to be possible, but now it's inconvenient because it can't be done. I look forward to working with you.

  15. Goodnotes for Academic Papers!
    I know a lot of researches who use Goodnotes for Papers these features would improve the experience immensely:
    - different identifier fields, not just title but Author(s), year, category
    - Endnote Plugin
    -Research rabbit plugin
    -ArXiv plugin

    And I said it before:
    I need to be able to search in a folder not search everything, everywhere, all at once

  16. Can you please make it to where we can rotate the page or turn it to the side slightly when writing like you would in procreate or on a regular piece of paper? I find myself having to turn my iPad to the side or my body just to get comfortable when writing. That would be a cool idea to implement.

  17. Now, Goodnotes allows to insert GIFs natively from the stickers tool, powered by GIPHY, but i would like to have the ability to crop them, some times there are GIFs that i only want part of it to adjust around my text or to shape them a bit... it would be nice to have the option just like we have with other selections

  18. I would like to justify my text so that everything is aligned please - to make proper revision notes and documents!!

    Maybe even drop versions with columns more intuitively as well!

  19. The floating text formatting toolbar covers content above the text box, making it difficult to read or present PDFs while typing. This is especially disruptive during screen sharing or teaching sessions. The user prefers the previous toolbar placement or an option to choose between the old and new layouts.
