  3. It could be useful to drag a part of text from a page to another one without having to cut and paste every time. It would make the note-taking faster.

  4. In my opinion, it would be great to have the option of exporting folders with all subfolders and the associated PDFs together. Currently it is very tedious to export folders of completed projects from Goodnotes. In my case, the projects don't get any smaller and so it takes longer and longer to prepare all the files for the backup. I think this function would be very useful.

  5. My handwriting is so messy that I write with a ruler in daily life. I tried it with the ruler on the screen, and it’s not possible.
    The words are ‘sucked’ like a magnet to the ruler and automatically draws a line.

    It would be soooooo nice to be able to have the ruler not be ‘magnetic’ and write on it.

    I can’t read my own handwriting without ruler and it looks very very stupid when I’m holding a real life ruler against my ipad screen in meetings…

  7. I want to use my note as a one session study. I mean I have mathematical equations to solve but I don’t want to copy paste them to another page or deleting my original solutions. So I want to study mode as when I press to that mode I can do whatever I want then when my studying session is over it can reverse everything I do.

  8. Ability to adjust opacity of objects. Stickers, photos, etc.
    There are many reasons I switched to Zinnia but this is the biggest selling point. It’s so basic I can’t wrap my head around why it’s not in GoodNotes.

  9. Please - urgently - change the link on the page! With more than 1000 pages, it is necessary to enter the page number, as scrolling is too cumbersome. 1001 thanks.

    Bitte - dringend - Link auf Seite ändern ! Bei über 1000 Seiten ist die Eingabe der Seitennummer notwendig, da scrollen zu umständlich ist. 1001 Dank.

  10. Currently, in the GoodNotes app, annotations made in other note-taking apps like Apple's native Notes app are embedded into the PDF upon import, making them uneditable within the app. I would greatly appreciate it if you could make it possible to recognize and edit annotations within PDFs.

  13. It is vital for me to see the date of the creation of my page. Some pages are memories from trips. Some notes are memories from a special event on a work day  . I would love to be able to see the date and time, and there may be more details about the specific page. I was so surprised to find that you cannot :)

  14. I use the Text Tool a lot but every time i want the text in another color it takes too much time. I would love to see the simple ability (as with the Pen tool) to put text color presets in the toolbar!

  15. The ability to handwrite or text annotation on a PDF with infinite space for those who do not have very tiny handwriting. Goodnotes uses the margins of the PDF for handwriting. Maybe adding the PDF to a page to allow for more handwriting space.

  16. Please create a subscription plan option for only Apple device support. I don't mind paying a subscription fee, but I don't want to pay $10 for platforms I don't use. Give me a $7 Apple only option like you have a Windows/Android only option.

  17. When searching handwritten notes, the word is highlighted is yellow colour which is visible in white or yellow paper but it is very difficult to clearly see the word on a dark paper. So highlighting it with a lighter colour will be easy to see.

  19. Similar to the study cards, it would be great if you could implement Research Index Cards to be used during the literature research when writing your Thesis. Ideally the set can be grouped and sorted in a flexible way. I have attached a sample how it could look like.
