  1. We all use different tools more frequently, and the new squeeze-to-display-palette with the Apple Pencil Pro is fantastic, but it isn't reflecting the new customized order we make in the top toolbar. And of course it should, it seems to me.

  2. When using the Squeeze feature on Apple Pencil Pro, adding a feature that lets you “scroll” through your saved preset colors the same way we can scroll through the tools would be useful, instead of only having access to the first 3 colors.

  4. 사진을 올릴때 그냥 큰 이미지를 바로 올리는 것이 아닌, 모달(팝업) 형태로도 올릴 수 있게 해주세요.

    링크추가 기능을 사용할때 나오는 오브젝트 같은걸 클릭하면 등록한 이미지가 모달(팝업)의 형태로 나오도록 구현하고, 빈공간이나 x표시를 누르면 모달이 사라지도록 구현하면 좋을 것 같아요.

    그러면 많은 개념들을 정리할때 큰 이미지나 다양한 이미지를 하나의 페이지에 깔끔하게 정리할 수 있을 것 같아요.

    감사합니다. 좋은 하루 되세요.

  6. Different pen styles would be great! Specifically a crayon type of pen or other stylistic types of pens.

  7. 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

  9. Suggested Reply:

    Hello GoodNotes Team,

    Making the toolbar floating and removing the option for a fixed version seriously hurts the user experience. Students like us spend hours taking notes and need focus, but the toolbar constantly moves, sometimes overlaps our work, and it slows us down.

    There’s a simple solution that makes everyone happy:
    • Floating toolbar
    • Fixed (classic) toolbar

    Let users choose what works for them. It’s really that simple.

    Please add a “Classic Toolbar Mode.” This change would make a huge difference for many users.

  10. I’m currently using an Apple Pencil tip that’s optimized for 0.38, so I usually set it to that thickness. However, the available options are only 0.3, 0.35, and 0.4, which feels a bit limiting. It would be great if we could set more precise values like 0.38 or even 0.28 for finer control!

  12. 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

  13. 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!

  15. 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…

  17. Now that the eraser is its own section in the toolbar, getting rid of the slow type selection dropdown would be a good next step, as the bar definitely has the space for it

    I change between precision and stroke quite frequently and it is a process that could be that little bit faster and more convenient than it is right now

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

  19. 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.

  20. ¡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!
