Add notification to study flashcards
When I complete flashcards, it says there is a time I should come back to review it again. Would be nice to have a notification to remind me on the day.

Typing: type text smoothly like in One Note or Notion
GoodNotes is a killer app for taking notes by hand but it’s really weak in the typing department.
Things that would make GoodNotes perfect:
- pre-set text formatting (title, headings, subheadings, normals text)
- text alignment (right, left, center, etc.)
- lists (bullet, number, checkbox)
- toggles (like in Notion)GoodNotes is wonderful for annotating PDFs, pictures and books and for drawing diagrams. However, it’s impossible to write all my notes by hand so I have to use Notion for typing and just insert the pictures I annotated or diagrams I drew in GoodNotes into Notion. So I now use…

Recall/Study Mode (active recall via hiding words/filling in the blanks)
It would be great if there was a mode wherein all the text that you highlight (using a specific tool designated for this mode), would be hidden (the text disappears but you see a blank line in its place). When you click on the blank line again, the word will reappear (then clicking another time will make the word disappear) -- basically it's becomes a mini flash card/ fill in the blank option!
Also, this would only apply when you turn the mode on. Once its turned off the file is back to normal/original form and you won't see which…

endless paper to annotate lecture slides
I love GN5, however, I can't use it as much as I would like to since for my classes I annotate the PDF lecture slides and need more space than the PDF slide themselves. Therefore, I have to use OneNote which allows me to insert a printout of the PDF and I can write on both the slides and have notes specific to the slide on the side. I would love to be able to have this in GN since GN5 has so many more features I prefer to OneNote.

Different search highlight colors
Enable different search highlight colors. I tend to use orange highlighter (best for multiple layers for emphasis) and the search highlighter gets drowned out with it.

Different types of fills (patterns & textures) for shapes, such as hatching, cross-hatching, dots of different sizes, dashed & dotted lines
It would be great if we could fill the shapes that we create with more unique fills. Not only will this make the process more creative but it would also make our visuals more understandable.

Link a PDF page to a Handwritten Note
Imagine that you are taking notes out of a 1500 pages PDF and you don’t want to go back and forth between outlined pages. You could simply make a link to that page and paste it over one/more of your notebook/s.
I have this issue because i work with european laws and every manual has a lot of pages. Sometimes instead of writing down an infinite law I prefer to go check it out instantly instead of searching manually or using multitasking in GoodNotes.

Ability to overlay a grid on top of a page (to write straight)
Being able to overlay a grid that we can toggle on and off and also move around the page would be helpful for writing straight on pdf documents.
At the moment, all we can do is add a new page with the grid template. But for writing in PDFs (a digital assignment where you handwrite answers to questions, for example), there’s no way to overlay a grid to aid in writing straight.
Procreate has a similar grid feature where you can toggle the grid on or off and you can draw on top of it.

Reduce CPU usage
On the Mac version of Goodnotes 5, it is a huge battery drainer and takes up a lot of CPU performance. My Mac is extremely loud from the fan usage when I am using the app. This makes it nearly impossible to use the app when I do not have a charger with me since it drains the battery within the hour.

Adding the OCR-Layer afterwards
I had scanned a text with an scanner that dosen't has the function to adding an OCR-Layer to the PDF-file. (You have to know that the OCR-Layer is the function for GoodNotes/the iPad to read the words in that file). That's why I am not able to search the words from this scan at the searching-tool. I thought that it would be nice having the function to add this layer after you already scanned the document from an extern device. I use an extern scanner because the quality is much better than that from the iPad-camera.
With that function it…17 votes -
Invisible dotted line lasso/selection tool
Make dotted lines of the lasso/selection tool invisible to a remote monitor or recording. This would give presenters the ability to live animate notes with motion, for example, in a physics lecture, to drag an object across the screen, illustrating constant velocity or acceleration, without the students seeing the dotted selection lasso.

Color Search
I think it would be an awesome idea to implement a color search! I often use different colors to represent different elements in my notes. For example, I use blue to write new equations or formulas and yellow to write important terminology. It would be so useful to be able to search for words by the color they are written in! Of course, it’s probably a difficult thing to accomplish (what with the ability for users to choose their color from the wheel), but I think if we were allowed to search for our presets, that might help fix that!

MAKE TEXT FIT ON THE PAGE LINES !!!
Please please please make the grid likes actually automatically fit to the text, any text box just kind of floats on top of the lines and you have to resize the text and try to fit it to the lines and it never works. If text worked better I would use it more

Printing: Bring Back "Fit to page" option
In GoodNotes 4, before the ios print dialogue, there was an option to "fit to page" when printing (And also one to remove backgrounds before printing). In GoodNotes 5, those options are gone, which means that my printer (who can't print the outer 3mm of a page, as do most printers) always cuts off just a little bit of the page. This is a huge problem with tight maths pages, where the last bits of formulas/text are cut-off, see PDF attached.

Search for all annotated pages in a notebook
Sometimes we import a whole pdf into goodnotes and annotate some of the pages. it would be nice to be able to easily search and extract all the pages that have annotation to serve as a quick reviewer.
