  2. Hi everyone and Goodnotes Team,
    As a heavy PDF user who relies on Goodnotes daily for intensive studying and research, I would love to propose a few feature requests that would drastically improve productivity, document organization, and storage management.
    Here are 4 feature ideas I hope the community can upvote and the dev team can consider:
    1. Expandable Sidebars for PDF Annotations
    The Problem: Margin space on standard PDFs is often too restrictive for detailed note-taking.
    The Idea: Allow users to expand a left or right sidebar next to the original PDF page. This dedicated, extra space would let us…

  3. Please give us the option to change the stroke settings on pre-written notes. For example, if I am able to increase the stroke width of a note that I've previously written without having to expand the whole thing, that would be amazing. I would be able to make cooler notes and tend to forget to change the size when moving on to a different topic or sub-subject, for example. When I forget to change sizes, it takes me a lot more work, so this would be very nice. Plus, look at this cool title slide I made. It took a…

  4. Transfer lifetime subscription from apple to android/windows. I paid for a subscription on my Ipad through my apple ID but now that I have a new tablet, I want my subscription since I've already paid a one time fee for it.

  5. Please improve the image quality in Study Sets again. Previously, you could actually read the inserted images. Now, the photos are of such poor quality that they are practically useless, making the function almost unusable. The photo I added is an example of the poor quality.

  7. I wish GoodNotes had an option to sort files by title in ascending or descending order.
    This feature would be extremely, extremely useful.
    I hope you will consider adding it positively.

  8. Beim Einsetzen von Bildern und Stickern fehlt die Ankerfunktion, daher verschieben sich oft mehrere Kanten, nicht nur die, die gegriffen wurde. Das ist enorm unpraktisch und zeitaufwendig. Bitte inkludiert die Ankerfunktion, wie es in den meisten anderen Anwendungen schon lange Usus ist.

  10. I want the toolbar, the bar where we change the stylus and adjust its thickness, to be hideable like in the Apple Notes app.

  11. Standard pencil feels too transparent and unrealistic. Please make it look more natural and much less transparent, more like a real colored pencil.

  12. Please fix the issue where handwriting strokes become stretched and unintentionally connect to other letters when Apple Pencil Hover is enabled! Writing feels natural when Hover is turned off, but this issue always occurs when Hover is enabled.

    When hovering the Apple Pencil near buttons, the interaction animations either do not exist or feel awkward compared to Apple’s apps and other well-designed apps. (The buttons only fade instead of changing size or responding naturally.)
    Also, I do not think the keyboard shortcut hints need to appear when hovering over these buttons. (This applies to all buttons.)

  14. With recent updates, the option to filter or prioritize favorited documents within a specific folder has been removed. Now, clicking on Favorites just throws every single starred document into one massive global list.

    This completely disrupts an organized workflow. When I am working inside a specific folder, I want to be able to filter for or automatically pin the favorites of that exact folder to the top, without having to look at files from completely different projects.

    Please bring back local favorites filtering or an option to sort folders by "Favorites First".

  16. If you have a deep folder hierarchy with a lot of subfolders it is useful to have the option to "show info" to see the folder where a document is saved in, for example if you found it via search. the same thing would be useful for a subfolder.

    Ideally you would have a clickable breadcrumb path, for example in a sidebar as others have suggested.

  17. ¡Hola! Quería exponer esto en algún lugar para que alguien lo pudiese ver y es que tengo un problema, hace dos días cuando utilizabas un cuadro de texto y cambiabas el tamaño de la letra podías ajustar manualmente el espaciado entre líneas pero ahora ya no, no sé si es un error o que han quitado esa utilidad pero es imposible el poder escribir en los documentos bien.
    Mi versión es la de Windows 11, ¡gracias!

  18. I think it would be a great idea if you can lock the page at specific zoom setting. It is very hard to adjust my comfortable zoom size every time I unzoom. Having 'Lock zoom' feature showing speciifc percentage of zoom to show how much you zoomed the page will be very useful.

  19. I think part of handwriting with pen/pencil is ruining your page with endless eraser marks. To mimic the slow and deliberate process of writing on physical paper, I'd like there to be the option where pen cannot be erased and the entire page must be tossed. You can implement a 2-step verification feature for those that really want to modify their pen marks so they don't have to restart a cheat sheet if their pen slips...

  20. Please look at the attached photo. Does this look normal to you? Even after hiding the status bar to secure more screen space, it still looks like this. It is extremely irritating that one-fifth of the screen is wasted for stacks of some 'bars' that are useless 95% of the time, and I want to hide ALL OF THEM immediately.

    1. Please make it possible to enable read-only mode + hide tab bar + hide tool bar even while writing.
    2. JUST LET ME TAKE NOTES IN FULL SCREEN WITHOUT ANY DISTRACTIONS

    I simply want to take notes in full screen. I…
