  2. I want to use my note as a one session study. I mean I have mathematical equations to solve but I don’t want to copy paste them to another page or deleting my original solutions. So I want to study mode as when I press to that mode I can do whatever I want then when my studying session is over it can reverse everything I do.

  3. I would love to have the option to see how much memory the respective file uses. The best would be a function to view the files that take up the most memory so that you can delete old files that take up a lot of memory.

  4. When I airdrop a Goodnotes 6 file or page to someone using GoodNotes 5, it crashes down and the folder to which the page has been added can‘t be opened any more. Especially at school this is a big problem - all our pupils use GoodNotes 5, some teacher use Goodnotes 6. And now I can only airdrop pdf files, which does not allow the children to move around bits of text. Please make the two versions compatible.

  8. An option to have a radial/floating menu of favourites like different pens (with set color and size), lasso tool, eraser, highlighter, etc. that can be pulled up with custom gesture like long tap with finger or the double tap on the Apple Pencil.

    As a student, who frequently needs to switch between different pen colors and sizes, always having to reach up for the menu bar takes time and so a shortcut that can be accessed directly where my pen is would be incredibly helpful. Even just switching between two different pen sizes with a gesture would help a lot.

  10. Eine Suchfunktion bei Karteikarten wäre sehr hilfreich. Wenn man beim Lernen in 50 oder mehr Karteikarten nach einer bestimmten sucht, frisst das sehr viel Zeit.

  11. Introduce the ability to insert an mp3 audio into a document. In this way, in case it was not possible to register with the application itself, I can have the registration and the document all in one file.

  12. I am seeing people migrate to drawing apps for note taking more and more now, I am a student.

    The app “Concepts” is drawing app that has lately been covering note taking capabilities as well. They have 2 options for their tool menu:

    A “linear” toolbar (like the one on Goodnotes 6) and a tool “wheel”. The wheel expands to a wheel shaped color palette when picking colors

    Goodnotes needs to implement this option for people who want more space to navigate and take non-linear notes (like mind maps), while also keeping the regular toolbar (for people who who use…

  14. It would be great to have an option to regroup hand drawn text as one chunk of text.

    How i see it: When selecting a chunk of hand drawn arrows, we would have an option to regroup the selected vectors and merge everything as one chunk.

    It would be much easier to move things around.

  16. iOS apps normally update automatically as they become available. For some reason GoodNotes does not do this and the user either a) discovers that notes no longer sync across devices and/or b) discover app needs update by digging into the "About" panel. Normally iOS app updates are minimally impactful but I have now seen GoodNote cloud sync break twice and require manual intervention by user to discover the issue and manually update, I would like to suggest that Goodnotes adopts the process of most all other iOS apps and automatically update in background to minimize user impact.

  17. Die linealfunktion hat mich sehr gefreut, da man im matheunterricht immer wieder Winkel messen muss etc. Dennoch hab ich festgestellt, dass das Maßstab des Lineals mit keinem papierformat übereinstimmt, weder mit goodnotes Standard, noch mit dinA4. Mein Wunsch wäre es, das Lineal so anzupassen, dass 2 Kästchen auf dem a4 Blatt auch einem cm auf dem Lineal entsprechen
