  2. When I write my notes, I want to select for example a written action item and paste it with a link to the original note in my to-do list. When I then work from my to-do list, I want to simply click on the action item to take me back to the note and page where it originated.

    Many thanks!

  4. It would be great if the spell check feature could be expanded to identify when letters or numbers are written backwards. This would be very helpful for kids and students, especially those with dyslexia.

  6. not sure if this has been brought up but as a student, sometimes our notes have pages irrelevant to our revision but we can't delete it either. similar to Google Slides, maybe Goodnotes can add a function to allow you to hide pages so that it wont appear when you scroll through the document, but can still access in the pages menu maybe?

  7. When we write something an audio tape would be really helpful. It works like the tape function but an audio is played when tapped. It will really benefit language learners as they can add the pronunciation on it and listen to it back.

  9. 希望大綱與縮圖右上角可以新增一個圖釘📌,點了就可以讓所看到的縮圖大綱進度,跟著目前操作的頁面跑,不用每次都從頭往下找,尤其是在瀏覽數百頁的資料時。

  12. I love the tape feature, but it’s annoying that the PDF backups of my goodnotes files on google drive have tape on them. It’s useful if it’s in the app, but it’s not for backups. Goodnotes, please fix this! Give us an option to remove tape on backups and exports.

  13. I would be happy to purchase more allocated disk space! I use Goodnotes for my planner and I can't delete anything. I would pay $100 a year for satisfactory disk space.

  14. Hello,

    I work for a school IT Department, and an Issue I have is we use Apple School Manager to manage all of our Ipads that the teachers use, the issue we face is all of them love good notes and have collectively agreed that goodnotes 6 is the way forward, but I have at the moment had to say no as MDM software at this time does not allow you to make in-app purchases, Which is why I have come here to suggest that you make a separate paid for goodnotes app that comes with the full version of…

  15. Currently when you are highlighting or using the eraser , the tapes can not be toggled to be transparent and back again. You have to select the pen or tape tool to do that. It would be way easier if you could also toggle the tape on and off while using the highlighter and the eraser .please see if that could be done. Thanks.

  17. Imagine a button that you put near a definition and after click on it. Appears smaller page where you can write your own explanation or answer.

    For example you have homework. There is a question and not enough space to answer it. So you add this little button that opens extra smaller page where you can answer questions fully.

    When reviewing notes for test, you find similar question and because of stress you received you cannot understand the little answer u wrote between lines. With new possible feature you open this button and there’s a normal size font to read…

  18. I have an iPad Air 5th generation m1, I can’t use the pro palette function which really disgruntled me. I suggested a feature a while back suggesting an alternative optional wheel menu for the toolbar instead of the regular straight toolbar at the top or bottom, now I discover that this format is available but only for Apple Pencil pro compatible devices which is incredibly disappointing.

    I really suggest expanding the wheel/palette format to the entire toolbar, pencil pro users can keep the squeeze feature and people who don’t use Apple Pencil pro would also be able to enjoy the…

  19. I ALWAYS have my iPad in landscape orientation. So when trying to edit colors & hex codes, I have to turn my iPad in portrait to access the hex codes cause the pop up won’t scroll down. Very annoying.

  20. I wish the sidebar when looking at your documents, when using the iPad, could be permanently closed & only open when I decide to hit the icon. It’s really annoying when I open my app & this sidebar is taking up a quarter of my app, all my files shift when I close it.
    Don’t get me wrong it’ll stay closed for a while, but if I don’t use the app for a little bit & go back in, the sidebar is open again. This isn’t the worst thing, but when it does happen, it’s a neusance.
