1. Permanent Side Notes

   I would love it if we would be able to have notes on the side of our pages for easier annotating. Whenever I upload a PDF of some sort, I find it difficult to keep all my annotations spaced out on the page, especially with uploaded textbook pages where there is a lot of text and very small margins. Being able to add images and diagrams to the side for note taking would also be great, as sometimes I want to see it as a reference but don't actually want it on my page. The sticky note feature doesn't suit well as the sticky notes aren't large enough sometimes and still cover portions of the page when they're open. I would love it if these would also be permanent, so we can reference back to them when re-opening the annotated pages.

2. Timer in presentation mode

   I’m using goodnotes in my class to teach and like to make the timer visible in de presentation mode. This way students can see how much time they for a certain practice. Can this be done?

4. "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" in GoodNotes for iPad

   I noticed that my iPad battery gets drained very quickly when I use Goodnotes. It would be great if the Goodnotes team could introduce the features of "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" so that it won't consume a lot of battery when I don't need peak performance.

   Also, it would be even great to have to GoodNotes team decrease the overall battery consumption of app without introducing those 2 features :)

7. Full LaTeX Math Conversion Recognition

   For a math conversion tool, it's essential that Goodnotes should be able to recognize every mathematical or science symbol/sign. Simple symbols like the mathematical “therefore” symbol, ∴ , can't be recognized, making writing and converting one's math's notes a challenge especially in academic writing. Now I realize there are a lot of symbols out there, but one way to go about it is to take a look at the comprehensive lists at ctan.org. They have comprehensive list of every LaTeX symbol, which pretty much equates to every math symbol that can be indentified for conversion. I've attached one such file. Hopefully this helps.

8. VPAT(S) and Accessibility Statement request

   Please evaluate the Goodnotes app for accessibility and provide VPAT(S) and an. Accessibility Statement with your security and privacy options. VPAT version of the template should be 2.4 or higher (itic.org/policy/accessibility/vpat) and use the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 AA (w3.org/TR/WCAG21/)or higher standards.

   Aside from making your application as accessible as possible to make it inclusive and abide by current laws, it will help you comply with the April 2024 update to the Title II if the ADA (federalregister.gov/documents/2024/04/24/2024-07758/nondiscrimination-on-the-basis-of-disability-accessibility-of-web-information-and-services-of-state#). This new update requires all federal, state, county and city agencies (which includes public institutions) to provide accessible content, websites and applications (including mobile) by either April 2026 or April 2027, depending on their size.

   You do have a great app, but it needs many accessibility improvements. One, for example, is exporting accessible (tagged) PDFs and offer a writing to text option.

   Thank you,

9. Transcription to IPad 10th Gen

   Many college students are recommended to buy iPad 10th generation due to its ability to write notes. However, while writing notes you may miss something, so we go to the transcription bar but nothing is transcribing while we record the lecture. The transcription with audio upgrade should be added to the iPad 10th generation model due to the wide population usage of the app on that specific version of the iPad.

10. Image Generation Tool integrated in GoodNotes 6

    It would be great to integrate an image-generating tool into GoodNotes 6, like shown in the picture. For Example, this feature would allow students to express their ideas more creatively by generating unique images that complement their written content. It would be also great for presenting their written things in class with matching pictures to the topic.

11. Element/ Sticker Search Bar

13. make custom color palettes and synchronize them for the normal pen and highlighter

    It would be great to make your own custom color palettes to switch between different ones and being able to synchronize these with the color palette of for example the highlighter pen, so you can make nice notes within a color scheme

14. Fix handwriting with hover enabled

    Hover seems to break handwriting in Goodnotes with Apple Pencil. My handwriting looks noticeably worse with hover enabled, it's as if there are tails coming out of my handwriting even after the pencil has been lifted off the screen. Other apps seem to have overcome this problem. Please fix this as this is a dealbreaker for an otherwise solid app.

16. Direct Document Access: Edit and Sync PDFs in GoodNotes from iCloud and Local Folders

    Situation:
    As a frequent user of GoodNotes, my primary activity involves editing PDF files. I import numerous documents into the app to annotate and review them using my Apple Pencil. These edits include highlighting key information and jotting down spontaneous thoughts. Once edited, I export these PDFs to store them in my personal file system, including iCloud, for access through various other tools like Obsidian or Adobe Acrobat Pro.

    Improvement:
    I propose an enhancement where GoodNotes can directly link to specific folders on iCloud or local storage on a MacBook. Instead of importing PDFs into GoodNotes' internal storage, this feature would allow GoodNotes to display and edit PDFs directly from their original locations. Any changes made within GoodNotes would automatically update the original PDF files in their respective folders.

    Benefits:
    This integration would streamline the workflow significantly by:
    • Reducing Redundancy: Eliminate the need for multiple imports and exports of the same file, saving time and storage space.
    • Enhancing Productivity: Allow for a more fluid transition between GoodNotes and other applications, facilitating a more integrated digital workspace.
    • Maintaining File Integrity: Ensure that all annotations and edits are directly saved to the original file, maintaining a single, consistent version.
    Call to Action:
    If you also juggle between GoodNotes and other applications for file access and editing, you understand the value of seamless integration. Support this suggestion to bring more flexibility and efficiency to our GoodNotes experience, making it a true powerhouse for PDF management.

17. Lock function is required

    Lock function is required

    When I memorize and exercise, I want to rewrite the content on the page after finishing work.
    In this case, lock function is required so that previously made part can not be erased.

    Entire page deleting function is required after rewriting.

    Thanks

19. Fix Search function, please

    • there is an issue with it highlighting the correct word so it will show that the word is on the page but it won't highlight it or if it does highlight it the highlighting is not actually on the word so you still have to look around the highlighting to find the word you're looking for

    • there is a glitch that makes searching really slow so I have to retype the word a few times for it to show up

    • sometimes it says the word is not in the document but when I search on other platforms it comes up (so it is not an issue with the document itself)

    • I love the ability to search for words that are on the same page together (please do not change that) but if there is a way to make it so that you can also search specific phrases that would be great

    • also if there is a way to incorporate OCR so that it can scan pictures in imported pdfs to make those searchable as well that would be awesome

    • there is an issue with it highlighting the correct word so it will show that the word is on the page but it won't highlight it or if it does highlight it the highlighting is not actually on the word so you still have to look around the highlighting to find the word you're looking for

20. Lecture Slides next to notes template

    Please add a feature where you can attach a blank sheet (either the same size or slightly smaller) directly next to a downloaded document. I understand that you can open the same notebook in a different window, but it is not functional to have the notes go below the document (or in my case lecture PowerPoint). It is impossible to keep my written notes organized while writing on the same slide as my notes. It is confusing and distracting. Think like a Cornell note style template, where you have room to write notes as well
