  1. Similarly to hearts, stars, and arrows, they should be recognized as distinct shapes, not merely geometric shapes.
    This principle applies to Apple Notes as well.

  2. I use the text tool many times on Mac, but the color keeps reverting to black. Even though I created my own preset and removed black from it, it still reverts to black. If the text tool could default to the first color in the preset like pen tool, it would be much more convenient.

  3. There is an issue with the usage of the Apple Pencil Pro.

    First, when using the pen with the hover feature is enabled, the writing experience feels significantly different compared to when it is disabled. Specifically, enabling the hover feature causes severe strokes or unintended extensions in the written text.

    Second, please fix the pencil experience. There is an issue with drawing curved shapes, where part of the shape turns into a dotted line. Additionally, the pencil tool appears too faint, leading to reduced visibility.

  4. Like previously can select the tasks then try to tracking their progress in a day so I can know what I achieved in the end of the day and while I’m on a task my other apps should be locked by good notes and can add expectations for important apps during different tasks

  5. Dear GoodNotes Support Team,

    I downloaded GoodNotes for Windows on my Microsoft device, signed in using my Apple ID, and purchased a Premium Upgrade to create multiple folders and documents.
    Recently, I purchased an iPad and downloaded GoodNotes on it. I signed in with the same Apple ID and successfully synchronized my documents.
    However, my Premium Upgrade was not synchronized, so l am unable to create folders or write on my iPad.
    Could you please help me by manually synchronizing my Premium Upgrade so that it is available on my iPad?
    Thank you for your assistance. Please let me know…

  7. pictures should be resizable easier and lock into the same size than an existing picture. there should be guidelines to make the setup and the size of the picture easier. make em all the same size and line em up nice is a pain. It should be as easy as in apple freeform app

  8. It would be cool if every document stores/saves the colors you used for it, so when you use diferent colours in some docs you don't have to research it. I think it would bea good detail.

  9. me and my friends have been using the flashcard feature and have been loving it! the only issue is that on iphone the cards or what is says on the card kinda like cuts and you can’t read it, and thus can’t respond properly. it’s not about the length of the text tho so i don’t know what would be the reason for this

  13. I feel comfortable writing at a very specific zoom level on the page. I would like to know exactly what this zoom level is and be able to go specifically back to that level of zoom. i.e., write some text, then zoom out to cut and paste, move things around, then when I am ready to start writing text again zoom exactly back to that specific zoom level.

  14. I would love for the old function to classify a flashcard into different categories once I’ve tested myself (easy, difficult, very difficult, didn’t get it). Goodnotes used to have this option but it doesn’t have it anymore. I want a better spaced repetition algorithm for the study set.
    When I use it right now, I have too many flash cards at once (the really easy one and the hard one all at once).

  15. The blue lines are very faint and hard for children with low vision. We recommend this app a lot in our clinic setting for children who are blind or have low vision. There being an option for black, bold, thicker and high contrast lines would be great.

  18. I recently learned about your experimental Audio Transcription feature, and I think it is an excellent tool for enhancing productivity and learning. However, I noticed that it currently does not support Chinese transcription. As a Chinese-speaking user, I believe adding Chinese support would significantly improve the accessibility and usability of this feature for a broader audience.

    For users like me, who frequently study in a multilingual environment, having Chinese transcription is essential. Many of my lectures, discussions, and study materials are conducted in Chinese, and the lack of this capability limits my ability to make full use of GoodNotes. Adding…

  20. Being able to download coloring books and being able to color. Even allow artist to upload their own color books to marketplace would enable to take notes in class but when waiting to color.
