  3. 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.

  4. 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.
    The costumer can still change things , if needed.

  5. 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

  6. Dashed lines
    It would be so useful to add the dashed line tool for writing and geometric mode!
    For mathematic, physics and scientific note it is essential having a tool like this!
    Thanks

  7. It would be great if I could select multiple pages and add to one outline, rather than having to copy and paste the outline title into each page.

  8. Hello,
    I love the ruler which comes with the latest update.
    I use the checkered sheet template in Din A4. Normally one box is 0.5cm long. The template from Goodnotes is a bit bigger. That's good, because I'm a teacher and so the students see a little better via the beamer, because just everything is a little bigger what I write. However, the ruler doesn't fit with it, of course. The students are used to 2 boxes being 1cm. But you offer your ruler only in cm and inch. Would it be possible to also add an option that fits…

  9. Hey!

    GoodNotes 6 recently added the option to rename audio clips but I can’t figure out (because GN never tells you how) how to do it. I tried long pressing on the audio clip or sliding to either sides but the only option I get is to delete it. Please GN: Whenever a new feature becomes available, add a small splash screen tutorial explaining or showing how to make use of the feature.

    Thanks for the reply.

  10. Hello GoodNotes Team,

    I am writing to share some feedback that I believe could significantly enhance the user experience of your application on Windows.

    Customizable Keyboard and Mouse Shortcuts:

    It would be immensely helpful if users were granted the ability to customize their own keyboard and mouse shortcuts. This personalization would allow for a smoother workflow and could cater to the individual preferences and habits of each user.

    Default Cursor Tool:

    I have noticed that the app currently requires users to manually select the cursor or image tool to perform basic actions like selecting elements or moving images. For an…

  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. When opening any document, especially with PDFs but also with my own notes, it would be great to have the possibility to have a separate page on the side to take notes on WITHOUT activating Split View, so all important notes are directly next to the page. Like in the picture but with more space for notes. In the settings you could choose which kind of paper you want to write on and which side the notes should appear on.

  13. 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!

  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.

  15. I wish we could edit recordings!! Sometimes i forget to stop the recording in class and after a few hours i notice that it has been recording for a while, I think it would be pretty useful to enable a feature to at least trim the audios we record, thank you.

  17. With GoodNotes 6 the writing keeps disappearing after you have finished, this is extremely frustrating and wasn’t an issue in GoodNotes 5

  18. 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…

  20. Hello Goodnotes,

    I simply requesting for the size of the thumbnails to be increased when viewing a document in thumbnail view. There is currently space in between the thumbnails to enlarge them as well. They are so small it is hard to get an idea of what is written on the pages.

    It would make it so much easier to skim through large documents, if you could see the documents better in a more zoomed in view. Please see photo.
