  1. Hallo,

    Ich nutze GoodNotes nun seit einiger Zeit und bin sehr davon angetan. Ich habe davor ein Jahr lang Notability getestet und muss sagen, dass das einzige was mich bei GoodNotes hält die Schnelltaste für Formen ist. Um Notability eine Nasenlänge voraus zu sein wären meiner Meinung nach folgende Verbesserungen Nötig:

    1. Es sollte möglich sein ausgeschnittene Textstücke,Bilder oder sonstiges von einer Seite auf die Nächste zu verschieben ohne die ausschnitte erst ausschneiden und dann wieder einfügen zu müssen. Wenn man mal schnell eine Seite umsortieren will stört dieser Vorgang den Workflow erheblich.

    2.Wenn man ausschnitte von einem Aufgabenblatt ausschneidet und…

  2. There is an app muse, who to tell you the truth is a bad app but has a very unique feature and that it has infinity amount of flashcards on it that they can become bigger and smaller and you can even add a card inside another

    What am asking for is simple a flashcard that you see its containt and can controle its size that when you want to use you can make it bigger, this flashcard has an infinitesimal size or at least the size of a typical page

    This feature is like a game-changer for most of…

  3. I use the app to teach mathematics and computer science lectures to college students in online mode. One very important feature that is missing at present is that students have to use their attention to determine WHERE on the slide or notebook I am presently writing (i.e. they need to determine where new writing is showing up). Whereas, in a physical classroom, it's easy to see where the professor is and where in the blackboard he/she is writing or modifying a diagram. It would be nice if one could have a big red arrow show up wherever I am writing…

  4. Love the app. I use it to teach computer science and mathematics subjects to college students in online mode. For the math course, at present I start with an empty white background and write on it. I was wondering if it would be possible, using your app, to recreate the experience of teaching on a blackboard by simulating the sound that the chalk makes on the blackboard, so that when I write on a black background template (with white color pen), if I enabled this option, then the students will hear a sound whenever my apple pencil is writing on…

  5. Your pdf sizes are too big, when I compare it other pdfs in terms of page numbers. That creates a big problem in iCloud free users and who have limited storage like 32 GB. Also, the program runs sometimes slow in notebooks with many pages.

  6. It would be tremendous to have the ability to launch the page organizer (with Thumbnails, Favorites, Outlines) via a keyboard shortcut. Furthermore, once in that window, it would be handy to be able to jump between the Thumbnails, Favorites, and Outlines views.

    I use all 3 of those organizational features in different ways within the same notebook, but navigation can get cumbersome. Having these navigational shortcuts would be a game changer.

  7. I would love to use a Goodnotes' planner, but there is one obstacle in the way for me, since reminders and events in those planners are not recognised by operating system.
    I would love to have the option to sync those event/reminder information within Calendar and Reminders apps. So when I plan something (maybe within a special text field) into my planner, the event/reminder would be mirrored in those apps.

    It would be even greater if it could go the other way as well - for the Reminders app: check in Reminders app = checks in Goodnotes but I am…

  9. I would find it very useful if GoodNotes would include support for the eraser end of the pen used in higher-end Wacom screens and tablets. Thanks!

  10. Double-tapping the erasure tool brings up some options. Add an objects switch to allow me to turn that off. This way I can hand-draw a quick chart and begin filling it with text. Now if I need to make changes I can simply turn off objects and not have to worry about erasing the cell borders.

  11. Currently flashcards aren't full screen so the answers look very tiny

    Also please add the ability to move the line dividing the Question and Answers up and down cause some answers are too big to fit in that small space

  12. A cross or small dot in the middle of (standard)shapes.

    It would be great to get an indicator for middlepoints of shapes - especially for circles.

  13. It would be very useful to insert a function that, after selecting an equation written by hand with the pen, using the lazo tool, recognizes this and calculates it automatically.

  14. Would be awesome to be able to draw curved lines with many curves (concave, convex). The feature should allow the user to draw the line roughly with the apple pencil and smooth out the curve to make it look good. This would be similar to the "free-form" feature in Microsoft Visio.

    An example of such lines is shown in the attached PDF.

    Thanks :)

  15. I used good notes for many different things, college note taking, filling in pdf documents, bullet journal. Please add an option to save more than one default text.
    The font i use for note taking sometimes is too small for the font required to fill in documents. And my bujo is dark themed so the font needs to be white. It gets tedious having to change it everytime i open a text box depending on the document i am working on

  16. Sometimes I copy text from Evernote into GoodNotes, but it's too long to fit on one page. Instead of continuing onto the next page, it disappears beneath it. Please make text boxes capable of spanning multiple pages.

  18. It would be nice if I could upload, say, a text document with one word or sentence on each line, and have Goodnotes automatically produce a deck of flashcards with blank space for the question and each line of text as the answer. (Or a two-column spreadsheet with one column of question text and one column of answer text.)

  20. When I complete flashcards, it says there is a time I should come back to review it again. Would be nice to have a notification to remind me on the day.
