  1. There are TONS of default fonts I will NEVER use but I have also downloaded a lot from iFont. However, I constantly have to weed through all the system fonts to get to the ones I use regularly to see which font looks best for a particular section of text.

  2. I loved notability for this but I prefer Goodnotes for note taking, but we could adjust the spacing between the lines on lined paper. I find the spacing on Goodnotes narrow lined paper is too large for me and I’d love to be able to adjust it.

  3. In the setting "Handwriting Recognition" it is possible to "Add Language" to the preferred languages.

    If I added a language by mistake, I would like to be able to remove/uninstall a falsely added language.

  4. It would be a critical feature for to have a global color palette that can be used in both handwriting and text. Otherwise, we will have to do double entry for every custom color that we want to use in different tools.

  5. I got GoodNotes for my Ipad and love it. I assume the account is associated with my Apple ID on the device. I have now downloaded your Windows app, but it gives me Microsoft or Google sign-in options... so I can't log into the Goodnotes account that my iPad is using. Could add an Apple ID sign-in option for the Windows app?

  6. In the new feature of smart study flashcards, the typing section is stuck with one font and one format. If I could explained with different colors, formatting subscripts/superscripts it’d be super convenient and imp[rove my experience. Thanks for all of y’all hardwork!

  7. When creating a study set, I wish I could zoom in or out of the screen. In particular, it is difficult to see the questions and answers at a glance because it is not reduced.

  8. Goodnotes for Android can be used without connection or offline system so that Android users can use Goodnotes for Android without connection if their house area is black out, getting emergency situation and getting remote working if their signal is off in their house area. Then Android users can write everything on Goodnotes for Android without connection or offline system in the future. Thank you.

  9. On the new update is now harder to quickly change the thickness of the pencil and hglg, would be great to slide from up to down on the icon that you press to open the thickness selector menu to quickly switch to the next thickness level and from down to up to the previous one.

    I'm a student who writes notes with lots of different thicknesses and colors, the new update made me more productive when switching colors but less productive when changing thicknesses

    There's a video with the desired gesture

  11. When you search in a written pdf using GoodNotes search engine it often misses (due to not recognizing the word or an adjacent hyphen - ), while other apps (like notability or OneNote) find it easily.

  12. It would be amazing to be able to add a grid overlay to documents. I primarily use GoodNotes to annotate note slide pdfs with blank backgrounds and i find it would be much easier to have neat and straight printing if this feature was offered.

  15. I feel that sometimes your pen slips or when you draw or make diagrams for studying there are very rigid lines which mess up the drawing…having an option to smooth out your lines would really healp

  17. Allow for hashtagging (much like Apple Notes). This allows for easy searches, etc. GoodNotes is great, but hashtags will make it better!

  19. A tool that changes the colour of existing handwritten strokes in the same way that the stroke eraser removes handwritten strokes. Rather than having to make careful lasso selections around pen strokes then selecting colour, users could use this tool to quickly edit the colour of their text to highlight certain words using different colours really easily. This tool would have a colour pallet much like the pen tool that decides the colour the strokes will be changed to when painted over.

    The attached gif demonstrates the functionality of the proposed tool

  20. Similar to on Microsoft word, when placing an around text, the text should have an option to automatically wrap around the image in different ways.
