  2. When the documents get to big and I need to scroll fast, most times I don't know the page number to jump to, I'd rather like to be able to scroll quickly.

  3. We need to be able to skip to the audio part that we need by clicking on the writing that has been written at that moment. The feature already exist on notability and collanote. Thank youuu

  4. To import or export pdf files takes too many touches to perform. I would say Notability has mastered this.
    Being able to export to more than 1 apps. As of the moment to export a file, the file will compile all the pages and will only allow you to export to one applications, and if you want to export the same file with the compiled pages to another app you have to repeat the process and compile the pages again.
    - It would be great if you would keep the menu to export until we want to exit out of…

  5. "Any Notebook that includes audio can be shared with a friend making it easy for them to listen back and follow your notes at the same time with Note Replay."

    This should also include the possibility of sharing your notes and recordings to other devices as separate files. I recorded a lecture today, and I assumed that this feature was also available. When I use Notability, I am able to share both the recording and notes as separate files to my Mac.

  6. It’s amazing there is so few languages that can be recognized. It has been a known issue for years, and that’s why other apps or even platforms is moving up so fast ( Nebo as an app, or Supernote/Boox as e writers).

  9. I like add a picture into the note and writing on the picture. But after updating, the picture always move by my hand! It is terrible! At least, this feature should be turned on or off at our discretion.

  10. Whenever I type and sometimes my hand rests on the ipad screen, the popup appears and it is really very frustrating. I have taken the one time subscription but still goodnote fails to provide the service.

  11. It would be very useful to be able to temporarily hide folders or documents.
    When in school or in Uni we often have a lot of different subjects, thus it would be handy to be able to hide the ones that are currently not used to make the "document" page more organized without having to permanently delete the unused documents.

  13. Turning the highlighter marks into pen colors (this will obscure the text, which is what I need) allows me to temporarily hide the key word and turn them into fill-in-the-blank questions that I can memorize

  14. I study Economics, and I wish that I don't have to draw the charts and other drawings all from scratch each time. If there was a place where I can draw it once and assign it under a specific name then when I want to plug it in, I just write the name I assigned it to it. That would save tons of time!

  15. While editing a document scrolling is possible only with fingers but doing so smudges the screen. Scrolling should be possible without hiding toolbar.
    To write or edit: select a tool.
    To scroll: tap on last used tool thereby disabling it.

    For reference: try annotation feature of One drive on iPad.

  16. Trennung von Drehpunkt und Größenanpassung.
    Aktuell ist es kaum möglich ein markiertes Objekt zu drehen ohne dass dabei die Größe verändert wird.
    In der Version 4 waren die Funktionen getrennt, was einfach optimaler war. Ist es in Version 5 vielleicht auch möglich die Funktionen wieder zu trennen?
    Nachdem ein eingefügtes Element um 90Grad gedreht wird, rastet es nicht bei 90Grand ein sondern bei ca. 89 oder 91Grad. Das geschieht nicht, wenn das Objekt mit dem Lasso markiert und gedreht wird. Lässt sich das optimieren?

  17. Pretty basic and I can't believe it doesn't work yet. If I have to read through a document on MacOS I need the PAGE UP & PAGE DOWN buttons to work please.

  18. Make it so I can set which groups of elements I would see in which notebooks. Along with color presets and line widths. If I am in my budget planner I would like to see different elements than with my daily planner. I also use different width pens and different colors. Rather than seeing long lists.

  20. I am autistic and have ADHD and I use Speechify to read out loud any documents that I read. I am studying an engineering degree and use GoodNotes for all my work. I would love if you could somehow include a Speechify extension in GoodNotes so I don’t have to use two devices.
