  1. Version 7.0.18: At the moment, it's only possible to link notebooks. It would be useful to link text documents, too.

  2. Allow text boxes to move from page to page without lasso tool. Since the text box is already a moveable item it would be nice to be able to move it from page to page without it disappearing. The lasso seems like an unnecessary extra step

  4. There should be a way to reverse the flash card to learn the questions from the answers? Quizlet, a competing app, does this, and I can't find the equivalent on Goodnotes :(

  5. When using the “Learning resource cards,” there are two modes: “free trial” and “smart learning.” There is a really useful option in the free trial called “random,” which allows you to randomly start from either the question or the answer of a card. I’m wondering why this random setting isn’t available in smart learning yet. It’s really helpful for learning vocabulary in a foreign language and similar things, but we can’t do that in smart learning.
    (And yes, we could just use free training, but there’s no shuffle in it, so we have to review the cards in the same…

  6. Ich würde mir bei den Lernsets die Funktion wünschen, Text, Handschrift und Bilder kombinieren zu können und sich nicht für eines entscheiden zu müssen.

  7. 1.תיאום חזק יותר בין הspen לבין המסך. יש דיליי
    2. האפליקציה קצת איטית.
    3. חוויית המשתמש לא טובה. צריך לשפר דברים בארגון ובנראות כדי שיהיה קל ונגיש לתפעל במחברת לסטודנטים.
    4.הכלי של הצורות לא עובד טוב. היה נחמד גם אם היו צורות מוכנות מראש או לפחות שהאפליקציה הייתה קולטת נכון איזו. ורה רציתי לצייר.

  8. The current behavior makes no sense. Why would I want to go to the end of the new page? Obviously, I want to be at its beginning. Why would adding a page even change my position is beyond me.

  9. I want to describe my workflow to clarify the feature I'm asking for. I use the Apple Pencil with Goodnotes, and when I double tap the Pencil, it switches to the eraser. After I finish erasing, Goodnotes already has an option to return to the previous tool automatically, which is great.

    The issue is that this behavior only works in some situations. I need a dedicated setting that guarantees the following:

    After I use the eraser in any way (whether through Auto-Deselect or by activating it with the Apple Pencil gesture), the app will always return to the last writing…

  10. Minimum and Maximum size of the pencil and adaptive size when zooming from very close to far away.

    This would help to have more consisten sizes when workinh on big mind maps.

  11. After update the new version(7.0.15).
    There's a noticeable delay when I type — the words only appear after a second or two.
    Expecial use 倉頡輸入法 typing Chinese.

  12. Remettre le bouton pour écrire du texte (au lieu de appui prolongé -> commencer à saisir, remettre le bouton qui permet de directement commencer à saisir)
    Ce serait un gain de temps énorme lors de la prise de note en cours, rédaction, etc

  14. Please create gestures for SHIFT, TAB, RETURN and CAPS LOCK for Apple Pencil in Scribble mode when using textbox.

    If one is trying to keep notes neat by using textbox instead of pen, this system becomes very clunky. If you want to abbreviate, make a list or write notes in an organized fashion on the fly, like in class lectures for instance, you have to use Apple Pencil with assistance from either an external hardware keyboard or the touch screen keyboard. It slows everything down. I sometimes miss valuable information fiddling around with these keyboards.

    I’ve tried using handwriting conversion…

  15. If you like to use the lasso tool to move - let‘s say - only textboxes, then you have to deselect all other categories manually. When you are done moving textboxes, then you want to select every category, then you have to manually turn on everything.

    It would be great, if you can turn on/off all the categories. There should be a box called „all“ on top of all categories.

  17. I wish the font menu could stay open as you preview your text or text box in various fonts, and also remember your place in the font list instead of going back to top of the custom fonts menu each time.

    Currently, the process goes as follows: select the box or the text > open the fonts menu > go to custom fonts > choose a font > font menu closes and you see what your text looks like in the selected font.

    Next, reopen the fonts menu > go to custom fonts > scroll back through the custom fonts…

  18. With the current iPad update (Liquid glass), it makes the split screen feature FAR more volatile (closes with hand touches when writing) and reduces space available to write in (as the middle part now takes up more). It also feels very visually unpleasing, as it doesn't fill up all corners..

    It would be nice if there were an inapp version to split documents that optimizes space. It would be even NICER if we could have the main toolbar stretch along the two documents.

  19. I use different colors and sizes to signify different things in my notes (ex. disease name, symptoms, risk factors, pathological findings...). I would like the option to have more presets in the toolbar rather than having to keep changing the presets because I have used all of the available ones already.
