  3. Handwriting recognition function is quite important and attractive for new users, However, the app can't really recognise my Chinese handwriting even though I write in a relatively clear way. Please imporve your recognition features for Chinese as well as other languages

  4. I would love to have a feature that allows us to draw wavy lines (squiggly lines) automatically using the Shape tool. Currently, drawing them by hand looks messy, and using text boxes or stickers is inconvenient. It would be extremely helpful for underlining and emphasizing key points while taking notes. Thank you!

  5. Please bring back the keyboard-button you can see on the screenshot. I know there are the new text documents, but especially in school context it is necessary to have the ability to add text to the whole page in a notebook easily.

    Thank you!

  7. Before the last update, connected lines could be selected individually which allowed drawings to happen easily. However, now all connected lines are treated as one object so it is now physically impossible to actually edit any singular line diagram you make. This is horrible because if u make 1 mistake and accidentally connect a line to a line diagram and delete 1 singular line, you delete the entire line diagram, which makes mistakes that are old enough to not simply “undo” permanent. Before this, you had more freedom and lines worked better.

  8. Ich bin ein großer Fan von Goodnotes, aber ich würde mir wünschen,
    dass man bei dem Tool Textfeld
    verschiedene Stile
    sichern könnte,
    also unter einem bestimmten Namen speichern kann.
    So könnte man eben direkt unterspeichern, wie man seine Überschriften, seine Merksätze oder einfach die normalen Stichpunkte formatieren möchte, sodass man das nicht immer wieder selbst machen muss…

  11. I want the toolbar, the bar where we change the stylus and adjust its thickness, to be hideable like in the Apple Notes app.

  12. I believe the highlighting process would be more efficient if a PDF mode were added under the Highligher settings. In the PDF mode, the highlighter recognizes the text and snaps.

    In the current version, the only options are either manual highlighting, or pressing the text then choosing the "Highlight" option (w/ only yellow as the available color).

  13. ¡Hola! Quería exponer esto en algún lugar para que alguien lo pudiese ver y es que tengo un problema, hace dos días cuando utilizabas un cuadro de texto y cambiabas el tamaño de la letra podías ajustar manualmente el espaciado entre líneas pero ahora ya no, no sé si es un error o que han quitado esa utilidad pero es imposible el poder escribir en los documentos bien.
    Mi versión es la de Windows 11, ¡gracias!

  14. Everyone wants to mirror images, but what would be awesome is if you had any sketch and to be able to mirror its entirety to give symmetrical conduct, it saves not only time and energy but is also efficient and widely used in sketches.
    So just a thought…
    Thanks, David Eliav

  15. A pen that automatically underlines with A squiggly line like the freenotes app does. Also, an automatic handwriting to make sloppy handwriting into better handwriting without having to use the typing tool like the free notes app does. If you do this, the app would be perfect!

  16. Hi!
    I’d love a feature that allows users to lock image position on the page.
    Right now, when writing or moving handwritten notes over an inserted image, the image often gets accidentally moved as well.
    This would be especially useful for students annotating diagrams, anatomy images, slides, or study materials.
    A simple “Lock Image” option would make note-taking much smoother.

  18. Please look at the attached photo. Does this look normal to you? Even after hiding the status bar to secure more screen space, it still looks like this. It is extremely irritating that one-fifth of the screen is wasted for stacks of some 'bars' that are useless 95% of the time, and I want to hide ALL OF THEM immediately.

    1. Please make it possible to enable read-only mode + hide tab bar + hide tool bar even while writing.

    I simply want to take notes in full screen. I…

  20. After the new tape inclusion, it would be nice to have a button to hide all tapes again or to show the content below the tapes at the same time.
