  1. Goodnotes is an excellent note taking app, however the functionality on a Macbook is extremely limited. I bought the full version of Goodnotes just to use it for my Mac as I don't have an Ipad but it seems like the app is strictly only for Ipads. There are so many minor problems that I run into that it is really frustrating to use. Its obvious that the mac version is just a copy and paste of the Ipad version... so I suggest working on the usability of goodnotes for people that primarily use their laptops. This app is the…

  2. Please add a function so that we can embed audio and video files just like images into good notes. Or at least that we can link them, but embedding would way better. Thank you.

  3. Add a reading mode view for goodnotes for windows. Firstly I am very personally excited for it being available on windows and I cannot wait for it to reach detailed finishing. Also adding a feature to quickly add custom sticker packages is requested

  4. It would be great to have some way of changing all the handwriting or highlighting of a certain color to another color. This way, I can experiment with different color schemes on notes that I have already taken, without having to manually select every occurrence of a certain color with the lasso tool and changing the color.

  5. It is very useful while annotating or going through big pdf while revising so that we will know till which part we have revised.

  6. Font support please. I could not write Turkish letters in any way. (Letters work on windows, not on my tablet.) The delete key doesn't work either, I can't delete the text with the keyboard.
    Hyperlink support is also available. I can't scroll sideways in stickers. Not all of the stickers you add by default are visible.

  7. Improving the Access For Convince in terms of portability; Having the feature to scan through the flash cards on mobile phones would be the best for always on the go learners.

  8. Es wäre gut wenn man beim lernen mit den Lernkarten auch in die Karten reinzoomen könnte und so die Karten vergrößern könnte. Vor allem wenn man mal am iPhone lernen möchte oder einfach an einem kleineren Geräten.

  9. I want to add further information (audio recording) to already existing notes. So that it is possible to tap on a word to play the audio recording.

  10. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I am experiencing difficulties with pressing the "New ..." button in the Mac application, as GoodNotes only responds to my input occasionally. Kindly review and improve the user interaction to allow for seamless usability.

    Thank you.

    Best regards

  11. I desperately needed a brush switcher that could hover. Similar to this feature in notibility. This provides great convenience for brush switching when working in split screen.

  12. I'd like to transition to using GoodNotes exclusively for studying because of its fantastic study set feature. However, I'm facing a challenge in exporting my flashcards from Anki to GoodNotes. The problem arises due to the presence of pictures and highlights in my flashcards. It would be greatly appreciated if a solution could be found to address this issue.

  14. Linking the same page or document in one folder to a different folder or document. Basically, the ability to edit something in one document and have it updated in the linked document or page without having to copy it or do it twice.

  15. It would be good to be able to search in the flashcard document to make sure you don't have a duplicate flashcard.

    If you have flashcard documents for different topics of one subject you cannot duplicate these into one bigger document to learn the whole subject in one sitting. At the moment you need to type every card again if you want the same card in a new document

  16. There are quite a few preferences, that should be set and/or remembered „per document“ and “not app-wide” because they depend mainly upon the content and style of each notebook. Including:

    • scroll direction

    • auto advance of zoom window

    • last used size of zoom window

    • last used margins of zoom window

    • pen colour presets (we now have a 3rd tab for recently used colours, this should be a “document colour preset” or “recently used in THIS document” instead)

    • last used text style and text box style (and user style presets if we ever get them)

    • filter settings for paper template selection (format…

  17. Search by filtering stickers.
    I use the stickers to highlight important passages of the texts; it would be very useful to filter the pages where there are some stickers or, even better, being able to search and filter for a specific sticker.
    Thanks

  18. After writing down a paragraph in a specific color (lets say black), I would like the ability to select a tool (maybe one that looks like a lens) and would allow me to go back over the words I have already written and change their color to something else (such as blue or red). That way, I would no longer have to erase something and rewrite it in a new color. It is different from the highlight tool because I am not suggesting adding an additional color, rather I am suggesting the ability to change the color of these pen…

  20. It would be a critical feature for to have a global color palette that can be used in both handwriting and text. Otherwise, we will have to do double entry for every custom color that we want to use in different tools.
