  3. I wish the items inside the element windows were bigger.
    When you need to search for a sticker or a sentence, it is always very difficult to pick the right one straight away . Stickers should fit the window.
    Thank you

  6. Goodnotes orders our documents based on date, name, and type. Maybe there is a way we can order our documents however we would like as well.

  7. I like that we have three options of sorting, but honestly I would like to either manually sort the folders etc…or have it where inside different folders you can have a different option selected. To be honest having both would be awesome.

  8. Interactive buttons would be wonderful that delete when touched to reveal answers underneath. it would be awesome if some could make noise such as clapping or buzzer sounds to help make lessons more interactive. The sticky notes can be used to reveal but you have to move them and then they do that crazy copy feature and get smaller. it is very annoying and would greatly improve if a double tap or two finger touch could disappear them. Thank you

  9. When dragging symbolic links pointing to some PDF Files into the GN Window on the Mac, it simply does nothing, not even an error message. Dragging the PDF files works, but then they are imported with other names. Like other Unix-programs, GN should treat symbolic links the same as it does files.

  10. It seems small problem but changing pen directly from toolbar in one tap will be game changer .. changing colour is simple we know but changing ballpoint, brush and fountain pen directly is only imagination

  11. In the screenshot below I was linking the pages of my weekly readings for a class. I had the beginning of each week in the outline and wanted to access them by clicking on the text at the beginning like a table of contents. I had to link them by having the outline open on the side then scrolling to find the page on the other menu. I think it would be more efficient to just have the option to see bookmarked and outline drop a like and comment if you agree.

  13. It is INCREDIBLY frustrating to REPEATEDLY go through the processes of (1) complete the "Contributing Handwriting" feature multiple times, (2) add Custom Words to the Personal Dictionary, and (3) when a red line appears tapping on the redline then "More" --> "Add to Dictionary" --> then complete the "Add Custom Word" field AND THE RED LINE REMAINS after tapping Save. Please know this REPEATED experience has frustrated me to the point of looking at alternative handwriting recognition apps or go back to keeping a paper journal.
    I'm in a professional occupation where keeping a journal is essential, and repeatedly going…

  15. It would be fantastic to display other Apps ( for Schoolbooks. Pdf. , etc. ) on a second screen and open a document in goodnotes to make notes.

    The normal iOS note does it in this way.
    Goodnotes directly switches to presenter Mode if i open a document and hides my digital Schoolbooks.

    Should be like shown on the picture.

    IPad make notes
    Second screen display something

  16. Please add a setting to move the page to the left/right side of the display while using the editor so you don’t have to put your hand next to the device while writing.

  17. I use quicknotes for all of my notes in class, a separate document for each day of class. It would be nice if I could use the AI feature to ask questions about a whole folder because I don’t always remember what day of class I learned a specific subject.

  20. Hello GoodNotes Team,

    I’ve been experiencing significant issues with the audio recording feature after restoring my data using an iCloud backup. Since the restoration, my audio recordings no longer sync properly with my notes. For example, when I play recordings at 2x speed, only the audio accelerates while the notes remain at 1x speed, causing a mismatch between the two. Additionally, the app crashes frequently during playback.

    I’ve seen reports of similar issues from other users as well, so it seems to be a recurring problem. This issue is severely affecting my workflow, and I would appreciate it if this…
