  1. Please allow links to use with other apps. I love that it works with websites and other documents. But other apps also would be wonderful

  2. Covers imported directly from the market place are able to be grouped by the same cover. Custom imports should be able to also be categorized with different color options all together under one cover, instead of having them all separate in the same group.

  3. It would be great to add an option where you can „secure“ a picture on a page

    So, sometimes I add pictures to my pages with exercises for my students. But then, when I want them to write answers on them, they accidentally touch some spot on the page and the picture moves and the writing is underneath and so on. I know it’s possible to add a picture as a new page but sometimes I add several pictures on one page. Just please give me the option to securely add a picture to the page.

  4. (For larger documents) allow a way to type the page you want to go to, instead of scrolling through (thumbnails) to find it

  5. I wish there was a feature that allows you to set a notification (not like the current one), but with a random question from a study set throughout the day, I would like to receive a notification to test myself at any time of the day. I think it would be very useful to maintain focus, even for those study sets that we have forgotten.

  7. The eraser tool has an option to erase only the marker. It would be interesting if you could choose to delete only the text written with the pen tool

  10. Display highlighter colours as how they appear on the page of the notebook when used. I can never guess how the highlight colour will actually show up when I select it.

  11. Dear GoodNotes Software Engineers,
    As a regular user of GoodNotes, I am writing to share a concern and a suggestion that I believe would enhance the user experience. I have attached a photo to illustrate my point.
    As an accountant, I frequently use payroll forms and other specific templates in my work. However, adding these favorite pages to GoodNotes currently requires me to navigate to the main menu and import them each time. This process is somewhat cumbersome and time-consuming.
    I would like to propose the addition of a new feature: a dedicated tab or shortcut within the app that…

  13. Within the smart learn function in making flachcards, priority customisation function would be beneficial in improving the learning the ability of the flashcards. Give us the option to choose which flashcards should take priority within the smart learning instead of the flashcards showing at random.

  15. Wäre super, wenn man die Seitenränder individuell einstellen könnte, damit es auch mit den Vorgaben von Universitäten übereinstimmt. (Z.b. für Abgaben)

  16. I often teach math using goodnotes. It would be great, if I could turn on the visibility of the ruler. So my students could see, where I put the ruler and how I meassure.

  17. While I love the current organization options, I think it would be amazing if we could be able to move folders/notebooks around ourselves (or manually). Like a manual option as well.

  18. I wish for a feature that creates hyperlinks from headlines from imported files (pdf, image ...) and connects them to similar headlines that are hand written in the following.
    Here is the scenario where I imagine this function:
    When I get an excercise sheet at university, I import the pdf file to Goodnotes and start to solve the exercises in the following (handwritten). Because most exercises start with "Exercise 1" or something like that and I start my answers with the same headline. For easier navigation it would be helpful if Goodnotes recognizes these same headlines and creates a hyperlink…

  19. It would be really helpful if it was possible to stack pages, meaning that when scrolling through the notebook only the first page of that stack (for example a PDF or PowerPoint) would be visible and you would have to swipe left/right to see the rest. This way it would be easier to keep an overview and find notes more quickly without having to scroll to through dozens of pages, especially when you insert lots of multi-page documents/powerpoints.
