  2. There you be a way to make multiple flashcard sets in a single flashcard box so that you can more easily separate different topics. For example if you have a textbook, you should have different sets for each chapter, and in the box all your flashcards.

  4. I asked Goodnotes to add the function of drawing dashed lines, trust me, it is very useful when doing geometry problems with GoodNotes or writing related notes, thank you!

  5. When writing a study set, the action of moving to the next square is not natural. i have to swipe several times to move on. I would like you to improve this. In particular, I feel uncomfortable because I don't go with two fingers when using the trackpad.

    I sincerely wish your company endless development.

    Thank you.

  7. I wish we had the ability to change the order of images, like in Microsoft Word. Instead of having to paste images in a certain order for the correct one to be on top, I wish we could click the image and either send it forward or backward.

  8. I regularly use comments to annotate on slides where there is limited space. Would it be possible to include these comments when exporting to pdf format?
    This would for instance allow me to review my notes on my pc while making summaries on goodnotes.
    Thank you!

  9. Manual organization of notebooks would be greatly appreciated. As for school ordering notebooks and files in a custom order would greatly improve ability to organize files and notebooks

  10. Flashcard Update! Please make this a permanent feature. There should be an outline so you can quickly find a card without flipping through the full size ones. Also have a way for you to save your progress. If i make a deck of 120 cards I may not have time to make it all the way through and want to come back where I left off. Also a feature to let you study only the ones you missed. And a feature to let you view them in order or randomly.

  12. I am trying to use the build in text to speech reader with iPad OS however goodnotes is not compatible as it states "document content area" instead of the content in the document.

    I would really appreciate having some text to speech functionality to make studying easier.

  13. Having a small toolbar on the side that contains user’s favorite pens, highlighter, etc… will be able to add new colors to the favorite bar, and able to adjust the order of the pens on the favorite bar.

  14. It would be helpful if GoodNotes recognizes uneven handwriting and would transform it into a straight line.
    (just like the straight line function for the highlighter)

  15. In the option box generated by long-pressing the word, there is currently only 'definition'. It would be more applicable if 'translation' was added.
    长按单词产生的选项框中,目前只有‘定义’。如果增加‘翻译’会更适用。

  16. Hi together!

    I would love it to have the possibility to search in a specific folder of my documents. Rather inside the normal search or directly inside the folder. 📁

    This would be so great! 😃

  17. Hello. In notability there is a feature that I miss in GoodNotes 5. In Notability after you wrote with Apple Pencil you can change the style, line width, line style and color. In GoodNotes you can only change the color. It would be important to be able to change the thickness and style of the line as well. Thanks.

  18. I would like to use good notes as my only application for writing, taking notes and creating documents. It is not possible because the typing option does not run as smoothly as "pages" or "microsoft word". Please consider making good notes an application that can be used for creating and editing documents with simple typing.

  19. Add an option in the brush (pen) settings to adjust streamline 0%-100%. This would keep handwriting neater for those who struggle with smooth lines and help enable people with disabilities or medical conditions to write easier. It would also allow for better drawing/sketching on figures to augment notes without relying on the hold to snap feature that doesn’t work for curved and unique lines.
