  1. When the app is set to 50% of the screen (split with another app), the colors picker (and size picker) become one tool and are inconvenient to use - because changing the color makes it your primary, instead of just swapping the one in use.

    There is actually quite a lot of space here when there are few tools used - so this split-screen view could work the same it works on the full screen - just show the few colors that fit the available space. The more tools someone use, the less colors he will see. This works on…

  2. I want to change it to a permanent pricing plan, but Apple only checks the annual pricing plan. How do I change it?

  3. I would like to be able to change the color of my marking after I have made the marking. For example, if I have highlighted a full paragraph in yellow, but I later decide I want to change it to red, I don't want to have to start over. I would really like to be able to select that marking and change it without having to rehighlight or rewrite something.

  4. I bought an apple one-time account. By the way I want to sync my iPad with windows. So I appreciate if you provide the function for changing one-time account to annual account.

  5. Be able to autocorrect specific handwritten characters.

    You could create your own character, for example “z”, “/“, or an integral, and if Goodnotes recognizes your handwriting and “sees” that it’s similar, it gives you the option to replace it.
    Your “autocorrect” characters are handwritten.

    Additionally, being able to lasso “add” a character to this character autocorrect. As we all know, nicely written characters are usually made when you’re not trying.

    Possibly allow this feature to be a button so people can turn it on to read that specific page to reduce potential frustration with constant autocorrect suggestions.

  8. When there are many recordings available if you select one to play you have to go back and find the specific one so I would like for the specific recording that is being played to be highlighted so you can know which one is which when you want to select it.

  9. Students across the world use GoodNotes. They use it for reading and making notes. Some of those books and notes are so big that it seems impossible to read them again and again to memorise. It is helpful if we make notes out of it. Thet is the standard approach. But it is tedious and time consuming to do so.
    Wouldn’t it be easier to just select the text that you’re reading and paste it to a new document to make an entirely separate notebook with all the selected text. That way it would be faster to make notes and…

  10. Here’s the updated suggestion for GoodNotes:

    "I would like to have a mode where I can view all the text I’ve already written, and then highlight, circle, and mark specific sections as I read through it. This would help me easily identify key points while reviewing my notes. At the end, I should be able to revert all my markings to keep the original text intact."

  14. 在分享畫面的教學場景中,希望能提供“增添書寫位置的鉛筆圖示✏️動畫”的鼠標選項,鼠標跟隨書寫的位置移動,而且鼠標能持續停留在停筆的位置,可以讓觀看者更容易觀看。一切拜託了🙏,謝謝。

  16. 선을 그렸을때 거울처럼 반전모드가 있었으면 좋겠고
    사진도 반전기능 필요

    선을 그렸을때 그려진 선을 여러게 선택해 묶음과 해지기능 필요

    버그문제 - 선으로 대각으로 ㄱ자를 생성하면 그안에 작은 선을 넣으면 올가미로 선택시
    묶여 움직여진다

  17. It used to be that only in read-only mode would the hyperlinks be active. This allowed me to write in annotation mode without accidentally switching to a different page of the notebook. Now I am constantly being shuffled to a new page when I write if I accidentally touch a hyperlink. I rely on this app for all my self-scheduling, day planner, and journaling. With this change it makes the app unusable.

  18. Similar to how you can type notes for specific slides on a powerpoint, this feature would allow you to type notes beside the document, not on the actual document. This feature could live in the sidebar of the document and be collapsable when not in use. For example, If you were using Goodnotes online or on the desktop app, you would be able to more efficiently type notes that correspond to each page without having to mess with text boxes, which often slow down workflow (espically if you are typing notes during class).

  19. I travel a lot and am randomly signed out of my Goodnotes account. When this happens and I don’t have internet, I am unable to access any of my notes, despite the fact that they’re downloaded to my iPhone and/or iPad. Is there a way to continue to access my Goodnotes notes when signed out and without Internet access??

  20. I am using Goodnotes on MacOS 12.6 and there are no updates that work with my version of the mac. My notebooks are not getting updated on iCloud.
    At least fix it so we don't always need the latest version to have our files synchronized across all devices...
