  1. It would be nice if it were possible to use flashcard mode for vocab training. Therefore it would have to be possible to flip the "question" and "answer" page. Manually (all of them) or randomly (single ones). More over, the Q and A page titles should be renamable like "English" / "Spanish". There are loads of vocab training apps out there but I like the Idea of handwriting. What do you think about it?

  3. Since there already is a feature to convert handwritten text.
    It would be very usefully if you could convert the text from pictures of handwritten notes or documents like textbooks to editable text.

  4. Now we only can save 3 pen colors and 3 pen thickness, but I would love to have more, something like 5, there is place tu put them, and we can have a setting of how many are showed, so who wants to have 3 can have 3 and who needs 5 can have them

  5. The new font feature is amazing. But what would be an even better addition would be the ability to star (favorite) fonts so they always appear at the top of the list. It would also be nice if we were able to sort the favorites freely. There are so many fonts I don’t use but come installed on iPad anyway, would save us so much scrolling time!

  6. One the zoom window there should be the ability to select the pen colour, eraser and undo without having to select these from the top of the screen

  7. This is feedback and not a new idea: I seem to notice some lag while writing with the Apple Pencil on GoodNotes 5 (on an iPad Pro 11”). The lag is much lesser on GoodNotes 4 and the stock Notes app.
    Amazing job on the new version, the app looks and feels great otherwise!

    1. The handwriting recognition works but is limited to sharing. I wish it had an option to convert it to text inside notes.

    2. Mathematical symbols or equations recognition would also be great! :)

  8. The printed page has no margin for binding.
    Please add margins. Best, mirror margins for front/back print

    Printing, two GoodNotes pages fit well in one A-size or A4-size sheet.
    Please include the option of margins for this, with front/back option
    (4 GoodNotes pages in a front/back physical sheet)

  9. I really like the ability to lock a page position and zoom when using Goodnotes as an electronic whiteboard for lecturing. However, a rather annoying trait is that the screen lock turns off every time the page advances.

    It would be nice to have an option to "lock all pages".

  10. It would be great to be able to clip web content from a browser (as in Notability). Often I want to copy an equation from Wikipedia and insert it into my notes, ideally with a reference.

  12. If I write an important reminder in one of my Goodnotes books I would like funtionality that allows the option of linking this to a calendar reminder date and time. When the reminder goes off it leaves me a message that links to a bookmark where the remix we originated from in Goodnotes.

  13. This is the only feature that makes Good Reader superior to Good Notes. The ability to have a pop up note allows you to write more things without cluttering up the page. If this was added there would be no need to use another app. Please please!

  14. I would love to see a feature that allows users to create a personalized handwriting profile that GoodNotes can use whenever AI edits, corrects, or improves handwritten notes.

    How it could work:

    1.Create a Personal Handwriting Profile
    - The user writes the full alphabet (uppercase and lowercase letters), numbers, and common symbols/punctuation marks in their neatest handwriting using a stylus.
    - GoodNotes saves these samples as the user's personal handwriting model.
    - This handwriting model becomes the reference style that AI uses for future handwriting improvements.

    2.Handwriting Cleanup
    - Users can write notes naturally, even if their handwriting becomes messy…

  17. I would like it to be possible in the typing mode to write in Latex language so that I can format the text better and include my equations without having to convert them with the special tool (which in my case often fails

  18. I have some feedback and features that I would like to see added to the current (experimental) math conversion tool. Currently when you convert handwritten math to typed text it sometimes doesn't include all the math, or read some of it wrong, so I tried editing the latex text that can be seen at the bottom right other converting, but I am unable to edit it. Therefore, it would be useful to be able to edit the typed math right after conversion to be able to rectify some errors in the Al's interpretation and/or simply add things.

    Also, please make…

  19. I can’t use the scribble option in swedish. If I want to write “Hej” it only writes “He” and so on. If adding a new language is not an option please let the scribble be non-restricted
