  2. It's just annoying to have to scroll with the mouse on windows. I don't have a touch screen, at least add the option to hold the spacebar and drag the page like every other app. I love good notes but not having this is just like making my money not worth it. I pay for goodnotes but have to struggle every 15 seconds to rearange the page with the scroll sliders that disapear after 2 seconds.

  4. The typing experience in general needs to be better, it needs to be closer to Word. We have to be able to choose the size of the fonts, the margins of the page, the interline space, etc…
    The pointed list need to be better, now it can’t change the number if we want to and it starts back to 1.
    If we’re able to better the typing feature to be more consistent and interchangeable with the pen writing, it would be an almost perfect app. As in now I need to switch to Word for some important features that I…

  5. Refining Handwriting.

    Now that Apple has introduced Smart Script, it is now the most appealing reason for someone who doesn’t have great penmanship to start writing notes again. I see that others have also brought this feedback. I hope Goodnotes will implement something similar or better. It will be the only reason for me to upgrade.

  7. Goodnotes can implement iOS 18's calculator AI into the app to calculate when the user types mathematical formulas, including advanced calculation formulas, something we can't do with iOS/iPadOS 18's calculator.

  10. Goodnotes autoformats email addresses to links whether I want it to or not, and it displays links with dotted underlines. When I export a file to an image, it's not going to preserve the link (it's an image) but the ugly dotted underline is still there. Going through the links one by one and declaring them to be non-links is extremely tedious. Please, return to the clean default text formatting when exporting!

  12. Responsiveness, sleekness, simplicity, is what goodnotes is know for please keep that as highest priority. It’s starting to feel very choppy after each update, friendof mine has Goodnotes 5 currently, in comparison there seems to be a big Fps or Responsive Gab, please fix priorities and not just add irrelevance for such experience.

  13. Hi Goodnotes community,
    I would like to ask if could be possible to add an extension of lasso tool, that I would refer to as a "Lasso linker". I think this would be certainly helpful for note taking of STEM subjects, but I'm pretty confident other people would benefit of this tool as well. The way I intend for this tool to work is simply by selecting the "Lasso linker" from the toolbar and then one would just need to select the first and second item in order to create an internal link between the two items (or an internal…

  14. It would be really usefull for language learners to be able to use the flashcards in both ways. That means that we could change the settings and get questioned by the answers.
    Example: I have a flashcard. As a question i put in „How are you?“ and as an answer I put in „Wie geht es dir?“ (German). Now I could use it the regular way and i see the english side first and have to find the german out and then there could be the second way (the idea) where i change the setting and see the german sentence…

  15. Bildschirmausschnitte und Bilder sollten nicht nur Zugeschnitten sondern auch GESPIEGELT werden können, bei meinen Skizzen ist dies immer wieder notwendig - oder ein Shortlink zu einem Malprogramm.
    Optimal wäre natürlich auch die Funktion VERZERREN!

  17. Please allow text that reaches the end of the page to automatically transfer over to the next instead of manually transferring it. the manual transfer doesn't work well for me in the first place, but instead is just annoying for me.

    Please also make it easier for bullet pointed lists to have easier subsections/indentations. For example, in google docs I can easily create new indentations by doing "cmd ]" or "cmd [" for the bullet point, open bullet point, etc. this would be LIFE changing for me as a student. These are the two main gripes I have with this…

  19. I hope the Lasso tool could change the thickness of the writing. Currently we could change the color, but at times we need the thickness to separate titles from body text that we couldn't do when we are busy taking notes. This could help the note review process slightly more efficient.

  20. I really hope it will be possible to use 'Draw and Hold' feature when using 'Tape tool'.

    You know, 'Draw and Hold' means, it allows the pen tool to draw any shapes by holding stylus at the end of a stroke.

    In Goodnotes, we can already use this function when using 'pen tool' or else, except 'Tape tool'.

    When using Tape tool, we can just draw a line and cannot draw any shapes by holding stylus at the end of a stroke..

    I added some picture that can explain what I said. These are pictures that I took when using…
