  2. GoodNotes is great, and I really like the audio recording feature. However, right now, recordings are only displayed as a list within the note, and their names are set by default and cannot be customized. This makes it hard to associate specific recordings with the content of the notes. My lecture notes are often very long (over 300 pages), and after some time, I have no idea which recording corresponds to which section of the notes. I hope GoodNotes can support a feature where a recording can be dragged or inserted directly into the document and displayed as an icon…

  3. Owning an iPad Pro with an OLED screen with fantastic pixel response, I can't but go back to Apple Notes to enjoy the note taking experience with almost no perceivable latency and instant real-life note taking experience.

    Unfortunately GoodNotes 6 has a noticeable latency that can be eliminated if the team can implement the same algorithms used in Apple Notes app.

    To repreduce this you can draw a straight line on a blank page from the bottom of the iPad to the top, you'll see a gap on GoodNotes 6 between the tip of the pencil and the line as…

  4. 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.

  6. Since you have added math conversion. Would it be great if the text can also use the latex code and then convert it immediately? Especially if you are typing on keyboards. You just want to type the math notation in latex code rather than using apple pencil and then convert it one by one....

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.”

  11. Please add the the translation tool like in every other app. Currently we can only click on „define“ and then search for the web when highlighting/long pressing a word.

  12. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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…

  16. 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.

  17. Two dots on the dotted paper templates are a little over 1.1 cm apart on the ruler. It would be great for drawing graphs if they are 1 cm apart, so the templates fit the ruler. The same issue applies to the squared paper.

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
