  1. I have changed my Tablet from iPad to Lenovo Tap and I can't download it on the new tablet. I think, it is helpful if Goodnotes also support Android and not just ios

  2. I love being able to search for key words, both in text and my own written notes, but would love to be able to search for different types of annotations as well. For instance, I tend to highlight key terms in orange, so if I could search for all my orange highlights in a notebook, that would make it really easy to find all the key terms.

  3. It would be great to have a spline tool that allows multiple bending points.

    I my case, I would really benefit when plotting more complex functions.

  4. I have an older mac which runs on Catalina thus I cannot install the goodnote app on my imac. I would love to atleast have the iOS library sync to the web version so I can use it on universal device without needing to create a link for ease of use.

    (Just like android users)

  6. Infinte Page / Extra Space for notes when editing a PDF

    I'd LOVE to see this! Like, I use the vertical orientation when I take notes / edit a PDF and I think what would really elevate the App would be if there was the option to not only add pages below my last one but sidewise to every other page es well.

    Like right now you can do this:

    Page
    Page
    Page
    Page
    (swipe to add new page)

    And I really need the feature to add like "note pages" next to ever page like

    Main Page (swipe to add…

  7. The study set is a very nice feature, but it is not fully functional yet. One of the requests regarding the study set is the ability to display cards in a tiled or list format. If pairs of cards were lined up on the left and right, as in the image, and could be shown and hidden with a tap, it would greatly increase the efficiency of learning.

  8. a system that can identify the headlines of a slide. Then generates the first page of the index card with the headline and the back side of the index card consits of the whole slide.

  9. Currently, certain notebook pages can be added to the index. The possibility of inserting EXACT POINTS in our notebook into the index would be useful. For example, if in sheet1 there are Topic1 Topic2 and Topic3, it is convenient to insert an index that when I click on TopicIndex1 takes me directly to Topic1, when I click on TopicIndex3 it takes me directly TO THE LINE WHERE I INSERTED the fixed index, in this case TopicIndex3

  10. Hey team, I just wanted to suggest a new little feature that would benefit a lot of people, especially case users.
    I personally use a Logitech keyboard case with quite a thick lip around the screen of my iPad.
    I write with my right hand, and when getting to the right side, then it’s really uncomfortable and hard to write on the right edge of the page.
    My suggestion would be, to allow for the page to be able to be pulled into the screen, away from the edge. I know this wouldn’t be the most effective use of space,…

  11. Having the ability to delete or remove the default fonts to make more room for custom fonts. Or at least show the maximum number of custom fonts we can have in the app

  12. Liebe Entwickler,

    Ich fände es sehr hilfreich, wenn man bei Goodnotes die Schriftart und auch die Schriftgröße ändern könnte. Ich nutze das Magic Keyboard und dort gibt es nur eine Schriftart. Die Schriftarten lassen sich lediglich in dem Textfeld ändern.

    Außerdem fände ich es sehr hilfreich, wenn man den Text fließend schreiben könnte. Ist eine Seite voll muss man immer auf das blaue Symbol klicken, um eine Seite hinzuzufügen. Es wäre viel besser, wenn der überflüssige Text sich automatisch verschieben würde auf die nächste Seite oder nächstes Blatt.

    Vielen Dank für die Möglichkeit Feedback geben zu dürfen!

  13. I would like to have the option to easily switch between my dark template and close-to white font and a lighter background with a darker font.
    Could be integrated into the template side. Eg contrast colors.
    Or just with the shift from light to dark mode.

    → it is really hard to search for words in my texts while having a dark template. There just isn’t enough contrast to show me the highlighted words; thus, I always have to change template and color…

  14. When recording the Goodnotes app puts a date stamp but does not give the possibility to give a title to the recording. It would be critical for me to be able to name those recording. Further to this, it would be nice to be able to have the ablility to export recordings in mp3 or other format.

  16. Goodnotes 5 has been superb as a notetaking app. Goodnotes 6 is following the path of other apps to add features, change structures and increase file sizes with cosmetic changes that don’t improve efficiency or effectiveness. Microsoft OneNote has many features and much of what Goodnotes 6 offers. The extra features don’t improve navigation or effectiveness and make the app clunky. Rather than have one app that must DO everything, if you want to add features, create two. One that is great for notetaking and one that adds the frills, takes extra space and add “glitter”

    Goodnotes has been superb…
