  1. The thing is that we get this message in all our school's iPads:
    "Couldn't get an authentication token."
    And I've not found an easy way to contact the support.
    Any ideas thanks.

  2. I have lost several text conversions, simply by an errant touch of the stylus outside the selection boundary. It would be very beneficial to have to confirm such deletion. Not to mention abating the urge to chunk GoodNotes over the side. Thank you for considering it.

  3. It would be nice to be able to change the thickness of the pencils, especially the highlighter to the size that you want and that is not limited.

  4. If I’m teaching, I don’t want my photo library to be displayed on the zoom lecture while I’m giving a lecture if I accidentally touch the photos icon. There needs to be an option to deny GoodNotes completely to my photos library. Currently the photos tool will insert an image from your library if you touch the document while it’s selected, which displays your photos for EVERYONE TO SEE!!!!!!!

  5. I would appreciate it if it was possible to not download all documents on every device but rather save them in the cloud and download them when needed. Looking at how it is right now GoodNotes takes up way too much space on my devices and i would like for that to change.

  7. Project bars can be created when users select consecutive lines of text. After that, notes and comments marked can be displayed around the project bar linked with a point that is in accordance with the proportion where they were written in the selected article. In this way, users can make a logical combing in order to have an idea of the structure in a vivider way. Click the point, users can go back to the corresponding part in text.

    选定文本范围,连续行/连续页,字数识别/行数识别之后得到一个“进度条”。

    文本中选中节点进行批注,批注将以节点形式出现在“进度条”上,鼠标移至节点,批注出现,左键单机,批注固定出现。右击批注,可引申创作思维导图,左双击批注,则可回溯至原文字间位置/行间位置。该功能有利于使用者把握文章结构。

  8. The new update doesn’t have take photo button to insert on a page. We bow have to take photos separately app then insert on Goodnote. It is not convenient. Please add back the photo take. button

  10. For example, being able to add a template like graph paper onto the Zoom Window function and changing how opaque that template is on the function (to write neater and more in a straight line on imported documents!).

  11. Continually exporting my notes into pdf result in endless filenames, if the file already exists: „Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of filename.pdf“.

    To prevent this, a checkbox „overwrite, if file exists“ in the pdf-export-options would be very helpful.

  13. My idea is, that you can organize and see your GoodNotes files in the files app on iOS/iPadOS devices. This would enhance/improve the workflow with GoodNotes files. Beside it would be nice, if GoodNotes would support shortcuts, e. g. automatically creating new notes or search for notes with filters. Thank you

  14. When I sometimes accidentally imported pages to the wrong document, I need to go through a lot of trouble to move it back to the correct document. I’m not sure if there are any current functions that would allow me to move pages within existing GoodNotes document easily, if not should we please have this function added? Thank you so much!

  15. 希望能够有web版本的goodnotes。因为web版本在各个平台上都能够使用和浏览,而不是局限于某一个平台。

  16. The text editing functionality is adequate, but it really needs table stakes functionality such as bullets. That's the main thing missing for me. Ideally, it would have robust, but lightweight functionality like Slack offers in chat. Using asterisks or hypens and manually futzing around with indention is a pain.

  17. Right now, i’d like to choose only bluecoloured handwritten text, as i often write additional comments between my own lines in other colours. Thx a lot & stay healthy!

  20. Dear GoodNotes team, unfortunately I activated the automatic backup function once and only created the PDFs. Re-creating the backup (now with the GoodNotes files) is unfortunately not possible - unfortunately I have a lot of documents and so would have to "touch" each one again to update!? Is there a solution? If not my suggestion would be to be able to start the "Autobackup" manually!
    Many thanks
    Tom
