More flexible zoom window and area
I use zoom window for all my writing. It allows me to keep my hand in one place and see most of the screen while writing. Currently zoom window is very rigid: it has a fixed aspect ration, limited zoom factor, fixed position and size at bottom of screen. Adding some features would make it a much better tool.
- Allow to choose both length and width of zoom window (flexible aspect ration) upto half half screen;
- Allow to zoom starting from 1x magnification;
- Make the border of zoom window 1 pixel wide to distract less from what is actually on…

Pen Stabilizer
A stabilizer setting for pens in GoodNotes!
Currently, when you go look on the GoodNotes App, on the Apple App Store, the previews show that you're able to easily draw these examples and diagrams for notes.. but it's VERY difficult to do in reality.
If you talk to any Digital Artist, they'll tell you a stabilizer one of the most important features to have in any drawing program.
I'm not trying to draw anything fancy, really. It's just really hard to draw remotely anything without the lines being jagged.
More flexibility with the brush settings, in general, would help users…

Add the ability to insert a PDF the same way you would a picture. (Resizing, cropping, moving around on page)
I would like to be able to manipulate a PDF in the same way you would a picture. I find that sometimes I want half of a page in my notes but don't want to insert a screen shot as it doesn't look nearly as nice.

Treat shapes separately from regular handwritings made by the pen tool!
Drawing shapes such as boxes or ovals around handwritings for highlighting certain words or phrases causes inaccurate handwritings recognition in GN5. The reason seems to be that GN5 treats shapes drawn by the shape tools just like regular handwritings made by the pen tool, unlike Notability.
The only workaround seems to be only using the highlighter tool for emphasizing certain text since GN5 doesn't consider highlighters as text to be recognized, but the highlighter tool doesn't offer precise thickness control unlike the pen tool.
Notability seems to treat both the highlighter and the shapes differently to the handwriting made by…

Integration into e-textbook apps like Kindle to allow notetaking
Most textbooks today are available electronically, but the MAJOR shortfall is the inability to easily annotate or take notes on them, specifically handwritten ones. Most readers are using not desktops/laptops, but tablets and phones with touch displays. Research shows better learning retention with handwritten over typed notes. If Goodnotes could truly allow this handwritten annotation function somehow, especially in Kindle app which we ALL have and use. Either a way to drag a Kindle book into the Goodnotes app, or an app extension for Kindle. Besides, what a better company to partner with like Amazon. Both companies would win as…

Make Goodnotes Flashcards good enough to Replace ANKI!
Would really appreciate if the flashcard feature becomes much more versatile like anki.
A few suggestions are
1. Show number of Flashcard left for the day
2. Integrate several files to form one Flashcard deck without hampering their current progress
3. SETTING A NEW CARD LIMIT PER DAY
4. Customising which cards I would like to see first.Basically a lot of anki inspired stuff that could help us replace anki cards with handwritten goodnotes cards. Thanks a lot!

Save preset custom text boxes
The ability to save custom text box styles and easily access them (using the text style icon) so that they can be re-used rather than changing the default each time.
It would be great to use when trying to type out different styles of notes such as for headers or key notes. Take for example creating agenda week headers using pretty fonts and fun colours vs text boxes to note key points during a lecture that must be done quickly and can easily be read. In this example, it would be valuable to be able to quickly switch between different…

Orange - look into further
Green - Note about dev tools

Use of Mardown to format texts
It would be really nice to be able to use/write/paste text that uses the Markdown format as it becomes the norm in most of the other apps. It would make it easier to import/copy text and have it rendered nicely.

close all open tabs option
On goodnotes 4 tabs would close when you restart the app. But on goodnotes 5 the tabs remain open and it is very annoying to have to close the tabs one by one. Please add an option to close all currently open tabs.
Also I agree with another feature someone else mentioned to have pinnable tabs like google chrome.

Notion integration

Ability to name bookmarks
My favourite feature from GoodNotes 4 (and the reason why I use GoodNotes more than Notability) was the ability to create my own document outline by adding named bookmarks.
Please bring back that feature!

Basic text formatting
GoodNotes has become my default note taking app. However, there are times when I need to work with text but typing directly onto the page. Please include basic text formatting (i.e., bold, italics, underline, bullet list, etc.) in the future.

have Word Count.
Word Count is important for writers because it lets them keep track of how much they wrote. Thus they can set-up goals and easily measure how much (or little) they have achieved.
Software-wise, to me as someone with no experience in programming - the easiest way would be to take the code that converts the handwriting to text, and somehow instead of converting, it counts the words.53 votes
