  2. Be able to autocorrect specific handwritten characters.

    You could create your own character, for example “z”, “/“, or an integral, and if Goodnotes recognizes your handwriting and “sees” that it’s similar, it gives you the option to replace it.
    Your “autocorrect” characters are handwritten.

    Additionally, being able to lasso “add” a character to this character autocorrect. As we all know, nicely written characters are usually made when you’re not trying.

    Possibly allow this feature to be a button so people can turn it on to read that specific page to reduce potential frustration with constant autocorrect suggestions.

  6. Hello Everyone!
    I write happily and motivated, because Goodnotes made my engineering studies better and more enjoyable.
    With this mindset, this thought also comes: Constrain objects to each other.
    E.g: I have a line, and I draw a circle. I want them to align tangentially. This would be awesome, since the shape recognition works amazing. Tangent is just one thing, it would be good to see other constraints, like perpendicular, parallel, concentric, midpoints, intersections, or maybe the option to define a distance between shapes/points. I know the app should remain a note taking app, but with the intro of math…

  7. I suggest adding a calculator feature to GoodNotes 6 to enhance its functionality and streamline user workflows. This feature could allow users to perform calculations directly within their notes, making it especially useful for students, professionals, and anyone working with numerical data. For example, a floating calculator tool could be integrated into the app, enabling users to perform quick calculations without leaving the workspace. Alternatively, a feature that allows handwritten equations to be converted into calculated results would align well with GoodNotes’ emphasis on handwriting recognition and natural note-taking. This addition would not only save time but also make GoodNotes…

  8. Hallo,
    ich bin Lehrkraft und nutze ihre App in der Schule an einem digitalem Board. Auf dem iPad kann ich die Toolbar nach unten setzen, das würde ich mir auch für MacOS wünschen. Leider habe ich die Option nicht gefunden.

    Im besten fall wäre es so, dass ich nur die Werkzeugleiste verschieben kann ohne die offenen Dokumente

  10. As the title suggests, I need more tape styles or more customizable tape styles. The current tape styles are too monochromatic and not very attractive. They are not smart or colorful enough, and they are not personalized or free. I hope that more support can be provided for this function as soon as possible, rather than getting stuck in AI text recognition and neglecting the construction of basic functions. Other note-taking software has had this feature for a while, as shown in the figure below.

  11. When there are many recordings available if you select one to play you have to go back and find the specific one so I would like for the specific recording that is being played to be highlighted so you can know which one is which when you want to select it.

  12. Students across the world use GoodNotes. They use it for reading and making notes. Some of those books and notes are so big that it seems impossible to read them again and again to memorise. It is helpful if we make notes out of it. Thet is the standard approach. But it is tedious and time consuming to do so.
    Wouldn’t it be easier to just select the text that you’re reading and paste it to a new document to make an entirely separate notebook with all the selected text. That way it would be faster to make notes and…

  13. Here’s the updated suggestion for GoodNotes:

    "I would like to have a mode where I can view all the text I’ve already written, and then highlight, circle, and mark specific sections as I read through it. This would help me easily identify key points while reviewing my notes. At the end, I should be able to revert all my markings to keep the original text intact."

  14. Right now, one can select text and press "mark". I want to perform the same action just by using the apple pencil without any effortful interim steps. Using the normal marker right now, I have to focus on drawing neatly to receive uniform marking results that are straight and neat.

  18. Instead of manually making flashcards, we should be able to upload our file and let it generate flash cards for us, it will be less time consuming. Also give different quiz options like filling in the blanks, multiple choice questions, and just writing out the answer
