  1. in Goodnotes 6, I noticed that when I just try to scroll slightly down to the bottom of a page it will auto snap me to the center of the next page, and vice versa when scrolling to the top part of a page. Please add a function to disable this.

  2. I sometimes find typos in my study sets and would like to edit them while reviewing the. Could you please make this a feature or allow us to tag notecards for review/editing

  3. When drawing an arrow freely with the ballpoint pen tool, it would be fantastic if GoodNotes could automatically convert it into a neat, straight arrow. This feature could also adapt to curved arrows, subtly smoothing out the lines without losing the intended shape. For example, if the user creates a zig-zag arrow, the feature would only refine the edges slightly to make it look smoother, without drastically altering the zig-zag style.

    If this doesn’t consume too many resources on the iPad, it would be a great addition to improve the visual appeal of notes, allowing for more polished and professional-looking…

  4. Being able to mark and keep score of items you have taped whether you remembered it correctly or forgot it. Its like keeping track of items in your notes that you remember accurately and also seeing parts where you forgot. Its like a feature for active recalling that you can directly do on your notes with the tape without having to retype it in a flashcard.

  5. It would be great to have an improved AI Math Assistant in GoodNotes 6 that can check every handwritten calculation in every handwritten notepage with handwritten math calculations you write for mistakes. It should be able to verify every equation and calculation and, if you make a mistake, offer a step-by-step solution for correcting it.

  6. A new Pencil option in the bar, similar to Apple’s Image Wand, that can transform a quickly drawn sketch into a beautifully generated picture if you circle around the sketch.”

  7. When typing and reaching the end of a page, the text does not automatically continue onto a new page. It would be very helpful if the app automatically opened a new page when the bottom of the current page is reached, similar to other programs like Word or Pages.

  8. For requesting dictionary or translator, other apps such as Book in all iOS can do touch or tap in PDF file so I can read and take note in PDF file that is academic paper for taking some importance note like unknown word's for better understanding when I comeback to read.

    I feel a bit sad when my GoodNote cannot do like that. However, I don’t sure it’s hard or not if developer will add dictionary or translator into GoodNote by default.

  10. With the new Apple Pencil pro, being able to control the menu that pops up with the squeeze function by rotating the pen and making use of the new barrel roll feature would allow for a much smoother and seamless experience.

  11. Study sets are great and i love this feature very much but i think some additional improvements will make it extremely useful and great.
    For example how much I remember the cards, if there is multiple option as in Anki such as easy, good, hard & again rather than know it or not will improve smart learn and add filter cards queue, some cards i forget it at all while others i just forget a little bit of it so the only two option make them equal.

    Although if there is an option for backward of cards as I accidentally…

  12. Goodnotes already has a website integration. I hope it can create an external embed link that works on 3rd party apps like websites, notion, and anything else simply as a view. This used to work with the website link, but since last year, it has stopped working.

  13. I love everything about goodnotes EXCEPT that you are lacking this very basic feature. I am high functioning ASD (and the stereotypical sloppy handwriting) and have connective tissue disorders that make my hands hard to control on a regular basis. I thrive with visual data and organization and your app truly is THE BEST - but I always discontinue use of this app very quickly due to the absolute chicken scratch it turns my handwriting into. This is a very real accessibility issue that I am disappointed to see overlooked by a company of your size and acclaim.

  14. As a teacher, I use GoodNotes on the board by mirroring the app on the display. It would be great if I could directly display a timer for the remaining editing time for my students in GoodNotes. While the split-screen solution with the clock app works, I would prefer a small timer within GoodNotes itself.

  15. I wish you can develop a page that users can choose and design the theme that the users like, not based on their iOS appearance. Hope you allow the users to create their own themes.

  17. Hi! I’ve been enjoying Goodnotes 6 a lot but I realised that it heats up a lot (Like A LOT) when using it and I use it on ipad. (Using it on ipad means I have to write and my hand gets uncomfortable and kinda red) I hope there could be a feature, like make it run smoother but emit less heat. Thanks!

  18. There are basically 3 pen thickness slots, eraser slots, and highlighter thickness slots, so I'd like to have additional thickness slots and eraser slots.

  20. For Goodnotes 6, the search function is way poorer than it was in Goodnotes 5. It was now harder to search for some words that I can easily find in Goodnotes 5. I don’t want to have a downgrade though so please, please improve the search button to find more accurate.

    If it’s not too much to ask, could we have an option as well to change color of searched words in search button? Because it’s only in orange color and it’s hard if we we’re using orange highlighter.

    Thank you so much.
