  1. Add the capability to use pen gestures(i.e. scribble to erase) in the zoom window. This would make writing notes in the zoom window much more convenient as you can use both the quicker gestures without changing tools and be zoomed in!

  2. The function "word to formula" in goodnote 6 don't have a revert button. Normal undo button won't solve this since it's only work at that moment. If I go out and return to the document, undo won't work. So, I suggested that each formula should has their own undo button.

  3. You can scan documents for the template, but not for the photo tool. I think adding this feature to the tool would be very helpful in many cases.

  4. I would like to request the addition of a feature in Goodnotes 6 that allows users to apply the AI-enhanced handwriting to correctly spelled words, not just the misspelled ones that are automatically corrected by the current "Spellcheck" function. The existing AI-powered writing aid significantly improves legibility while maintaining the writer's unique style, but currently activates only when a spelling mistake is made. Introducing an opt-in setting to extend this AI-enhancement to all handwritten words, regardless of their spelling accuracy, would offer users the benefit of consistently legible and polished notes, thereby enriching the overall Goodnotes 6 experience.

  5. I would like the possibility to use continuous pages instead of a set size of a page. The width is okay, but the possibility to scroll down more or less endlessly would be nice. I think this way my notes are more structured because I can have one topic on a page and not over several pages. I know this concept from OneNote and this is the only function I really miss.

  6. Suggestion: Possibility to place the pen tool in a suspended position or choose its position throughout the application.

  8. Accessing the zoom function after the new update is now more inconvenient. It would be easier to access if one did not need to scroll to select the option :)

  9. I loved notability for this but I prefer Goodnotes for note taking, but we could adjust the spacing between the lines on lined paper. I find the spacing on Goodnotes narrow lined paper is too large for me and I’d love to be able to adjust it.

  12. To better facilitate organization of various documents that may need to be simultaneously accessible, assigning opened documents' tabs a provisional color designation would prove useful (with an option to set said color designation as definitive for future instances).

  13. Using Apple or Google or other accounts to login to good notes is a terrible privacy practice. Why would I want to share my good notes data with those companies and why would I want to share my other data with Good Notes. Will not be upgrading so long as v6 requires account login without an email address option.

  14. When I type too much text and it goes beyond the bottom of the page, the overflow text doesn't automatically get added to the next page - I need to manually add it.

    Could you make it so that when the text goes beyond the bottom of the page, it gets automatically added to the next page to prevent the need for manual intervention?

    This would allow for a smoother and faster note-taking experience.

  17. In the goodnotes 6 there is the scribble option, but when I am writing in attached lettres it confuses my writing for delete. It is really frustrating and i would like to turn it off, but not in my ipad settings, as it is useful in other apps. Also when i make a little drawing, it confuses it for delete as well sometimes.

  20. I want to request adding a "Select and Search" feature in GoodNotes. This feature would enable users to select a word or sentence within a PDF and click "Search" to initiate a search for that text throughout the document.

    This will be a huge time saver and more efficient, especially with study documents that have questions at the end; this will make it easy to look up and review the answers to those questions quickly. Otherwise, especially when I'm using my iPhone on the go, I'd waste time on repetitive unnecessary steps of clicking options, scrolling to find search, and…
