  1. Als Linkshänder kommt man immer mit der Hand auf die Toolleiste und verstellt das Werkzeug oder das Dokument. Es wäre extrem cool wenn man wählen könnte ob links oder rechts und die Toolleiste dann an den unteren Bildrand rutscht. Denn so macht arbeiten am iPad echt keinen Spaß. Danke

  2. It would be great if one could move/drag the page higher, so that the hand would still lie on the tablet when one wants to write at the very bottom of the page.

  3. It would be great to name and save Audioclips to a page. This way you can hear only the information on the page you are looking at without searching for the right audio or for the right Minute in the audio. The audio should stick right to a page where you need it.

  4. While we open a goodnotes shared link in browser tab (web), currently we have a plain title as "Goodnotes" for all the urls.

    It would be great if we set title as document name.

  5. After the latest update which is the addition of voice recording into the toolbar, the brace cursor disappeared. I think the toolbar customization feature should be offered because the sidebar for the pages does not work effectively, especially for large pdf(s) (for ex. while I am looking at page 123 the sidebar stays at page 4). Thus, adding a brace for any page becomes frustrating.

  7. We need to be able to skip to the audio part that we need by clicking on the writing that has been written at that moment. The feature already exist on notability and collanote. Thank youuu

  8. Page Turner doesn't work when using iPad Pro 12.9 3rd Generation 4th Generation.

    I heard that it sometimes works on iPad Pro 11 inch, iPad Pro 12.9 inch 5th generation M1, but it doesn't work on iPad Pro 12.9 inch 3rd generation 4th generation. I thought it might be a compatibility problem with the page turner, so I tested 4 units for each different type of page turner, but it doesn't work. A typical example is that it does not work with iRig Blue Turn products.

  9. Now the goodnotes on windows beta can only create notes files but can not open the notes files created by ios or share the files to other equipments. Naturally, I know that now the beta version can not sync with iphone or mac, however, the functions I mentioned beyond is also very important.

  11. To import or export pdf files takes too many touches to perform. I would say Notability has mastered this.
    Being able to export to more than 1 apps. As of the moment to export a file, the file will compile all the pages and will only allow you to export to one applications, and if you want to export the same file with the compiled pages to another app you have to repeat the process and compile the pages again.
    - It would be great if you would keep the menu to export until we want to exit out of…

  12. To make space for the microphone/recording icon (perhaps for the sake of symmetry) the bookmark icon was removed. There is now no visual feedback of for a page being bookmarked.

    One on hand, I use this feature with my planner to add the current week to favorites for a quick retrieval. On the other hand I will never use the recording feature.
    My dismay at this new development is self evident and so is my wish for a future positive resolution for my quandry.

  16. Currently when I search a keyword, it will show the search features of both my handwritten keywords + the typed keywords. But I want to search keywords quickly without showing the handwritten contents. In another words I can add some typed label for some sections header for clearer structure.

    Can the search function allow the options to search ONLY typed words?

  17. While writing, my palm touches the screen and most often the "Zoom | Add comment" option pops up. It would be great if this menu can be made optional.

  18. When jumping to a specific page, Good notes is using its own count of page numbers, which often differs from the count the document is using, especially for scientific literature. This leads to the reader having to write down two page numbers for reference, one for the scientific quote and one to actually find the quote again using the "jump to page" option. A great option would be to adjust this manually, e.g. telling good notes "this is Page 72", so the actual page numbers of the document can be used as reference.
