  1. There is no feature of changing page templates all together,we have to change separately,this is annoying.Another thing is that pdf quality can't be determined,if there will be option for changing quality of extracted pdf, it will be more good,
    And please add a calculator in the app.During extraction of pdf,page range should be added.

  4. add a feature of a "float-note"
    the note will catch small part of screen, and will stay no matter what document is in its background,
    and of course can be minimized when unnecessary.
    can be used for:
    1. common data that needs to be available while switching documents.
    2. reminders or data that are not related to any document and need to stay in eye site.
    3. a middle stop station from delivering data between document (for example if I want to collect information from one document and then transferre it to another- without going back and forth between them)

  5. There should she a text selection tool for copying text

    Other apps have an underline or strike through tool, even a squiggly line underneath

    On the same notion, the highlight right now is draw and has to be paused in place to make a straight line but a new tool could be added that specifically highlights text only and is perfectly aligned with the text instead of overlayed

    It also you be nice to be able to create hyperlinks in the text so when you click on it, it jumps you to a certain page, and maybe include a return…

  6. It seems like we can create stickers and stickers are kinda like stamps. I am hoping to create stickers for various typical items/issues I find while on an inspection so that I can just place the sticker as the annotation for what I saw at that location.

    What would be really awesome is if there could be a legend based on the stickers you choose and it would be really incredible if it would automatically count them.

    For example, I’m inspecting a house and I have a sticker that is for water stains. I go around the house and place…

  7. Being able to lock the orientation of the notebook or page you’re working on without having to lock it for the entire iPad.

    When I am marking up a floor plan, I have to lock the iPad so that I can orient the floor plan to match what I’m seeing. It would be better if I can lock this in Goodnotes instead of the iPad.

    Bonus would be if you can lock the page/notebook to the actual north direction. The phones already have a compass to where it knows where north is. If that could be linked to the page…

  9. Hi GoodNotes Team,
    I'm a student who uses GoodNotes daily for my lectures and note-taking. I had a creative idea that I think would make the writing experience much more fun and unique.
    Currently, the pen tool only writes in one solid color. What if there was an option for a "Multi-color" or "Bordered" pen? For example, a pen stroke that has one color in the center and a completely different color on the outer edges.
    I’ve attached a sketch I made to demonstrate the idea (a light blue stroke with red edges, and another with purple edges). I think…

  10. It would be very practical to be able to choose the tools that are associated with the double-tap function of the Apple Pencil. Simple yet very efficient feature for a smoother workflow while writing.

  11. Add the ability for the Shortcuts app on iPadOS to open multiple selected documents simultaneously in Split View.

    This feature would allow users to choose specific files and define them as a paired workspace within a Shortcut. When the Shortcut is run, the selected documents would automatically open side-by-side in Split View, eliminating the need to manually open and Split View for each file.

  13. TextDoc

    I have been a GoodNotes user for several years throughout my undergraduate time and plan to continue using it through graduate school. I have fallen in love with the TextDoc option, but there are several issues. First, when exporting a TextDoc to a PDF, there is very little room on the "printed" PDF, especially if any headings are used, which is an integral feature for lengthy notes. If DevOps has any way to ensure the headings are kept while the overall size is altered when imported. This could be solved by changing the Text or Font size. Second, another…

  16. I wish we could give the whiteboards covers instead of the zoomed out version of the whole whiteboard. It would make organizing my different boards so much easier.

  17. Currently, the app offers three pen stroke thicknesses (thin, medium, thick). It would be useful to allow users to add one or two additional stroke options for greater flexibility in note-taking and diagramming.

    I think a lot of students would benefit from this option especially students who zoom in to write on tiny organ pictures and re-zoom out for a different font size, like in my case.

    The idea is for those who want to add they can who don’t want then nothing changes.

    Best regards,
    Hasan ataba

  18. The current screenshot feature captures all notes on the page. I wish to add an option to capture only the background.

    Also, it would be easier to have an option like "screenshot and copy", the current workflow is too complex: screenshot, share, copy, and close the preview...

    So two features: "screenshot background", "screenshot and copy".

  19. This will either be a new document or a revised version of the whiteboard.

    It would be an amazing feature if there is an infinite whiteboard like space that you can navigate on by clicking and holding the middle mouse button making it easier to plan with Goodnotes.
