  3. Using a mouse wheel to scroll to the top of a paper, I frequently end up unintentionally adding copies of the first page. I think my record is something like 6 copies before I noticed and deleted them,.

  5. I am suggesting to add a setting to be able to more the undo and redo buttons to the magnifying screen for easier access. When writing notes in class it slows you down to have to go to the top of the screen to undo. I believe that this is just a apple pencil gen 1 problem since we do not have the double tap feature.

  6. It appears the Google Drive current integration is just for "My Drive" and not for Shared team drives. My organization uses shared drives heavily and it would be great to have access to them through GoodNotes. Currently, I have to copy the document from the shared drive to my drive in order to work on it in GoodNotes.

  7. Whenever I use the flashcards and I accidentally touch the grey area, the flashcard tab closes. It’s very unnecessary feature and frustrating.

  8. Please add memory of colour to tools. Switching from pen to shape tool, I’m stuck in the same colour used in “pen” , so I have to change the colour . Different tool should have different colour memory

  9. GoodNotes is a killer app for taking notes by hand but it’s really weak in the typing department.

    Things that would make GoodNotes perfect:
    - pre-set text formatting (title, headings, subheadings, normals text)
    - text alignment (right, left, center, etc.)
    - lists (bullet, number, checkbox)
    - toggles (like in Notion)

    GoodNotes is wonderful for annotating PDFs, pictures and books and for drawing diagrams. However, it’s impossible to write all my notes by hand so I have to use Notion for typing and just insert the pictures I annotated or diagrams I drew in GoodNotes into Notion. So I now use…

  10. Add a "glow" style to the pen types or color options, or the option to keep laser pointer markings permanently.

  12. Viele haben das Problem, dass die neuste Seite immer oben ist. Das ist allerdings sehr unpraktisch. Die Seiten manuell zu tauschen, dauert sehr lange bei Notizbüchern mit über 200 Seiten.
    Eine Funktion, die die Reihenfolge tauschen würde, sodass die oberste Seite zur Untersten wird, wäre ziemlich hilfreich.

  13. Dear GoodNotes

    Hi, I'm an university student who is using your application very often.

    It is a bit shameful to say but to be honest, my handwriting isn't that good.

    So I hope the good notes automatically change my handwriting into Text.

    If you apply deep learning system for each users, AI will understand and change someone's handwriting to Text even if his handwriting is barely understandable in human's view . And also, users can customize their own AI system.

    It must improve and reduce misconversion for each users.

    I hope you consider about it

    Best regards

  14. How about an extendable (in centimeters/ adjustable) section to the left/right of scanned documents where you can take notes (in line with opening a new tab but a little bit more streamlined). This way you could have annotations within the document and more real estate for actually writing within the document.

  16. Wenn ich mit dem Apple pen schreibe, bräuchte ich Linien.
    Bei GoodNotes musste ich bisher einzeln Linien zeichnen und darauf schreiben, damit ich einigermaßen gerade schreibe.
    (in notability gibt es beispielsweise die Funktion Haftnotitzen.
    Danke!

    My handwriting isn’t the best, so what I need is a note paper, where I can write on it.
    Notability already got this function...

  19. Ich bin von notability auf GoodNotes umgestiegen und bereue es gar nicht!
    Jedoch wäre ein Verbesserungsvorschlag: wenn ich mit dem Apple pen schreibe, bräuchte ich Linien
    (in notability gibt es beispielsweise die Funktion Haftnotitzen.

  20. Sometimes, when I’m handwriting with the page amplified, it comes back to the original size when I don’t want to.
