[Toolbar] Support Customization
Bring back the option to customise the toolbar. I see a recent update has partially returned this feature (allowing to customise the main toolbar options), but this needs to carry over to each toolbar options (pen, pencil, highlighter, etc). Allow reorganising the squeeze pop up menu. This is meant to help streamline productivity, but now having my most used tools all over the place, I’m wasting time scrolling to find them.

[Lasso] Allow creating multiple text boxes without switching to the lasso
Stop having lasso be the default tool. I cannot even remove it from the toolbar. It is frustrating that everything always goes back to lasso. I can’t even do multiple text boxes one after the other because once you type in a text box once and click off it goes straight to lasso instead of having text toggled on like it used to
543 votesHello! Thanks so much for your feedback and for sharing your ideas with us.
We’re excited to let you know that we’ve updated the Text tool and introduced a new dedicated floating menu for text boxes, including more customization options.
One of the new tools is Pin Text Tool — when enabled, it keeps the Text tool active so you can create multiple text boxes continuously without having to reselect it each time.
This is especially helpful when you're focused on adding or adjusting text in your notes. The pin will automatically turn off once you switch to another tool.
Feel free to try it out and let us know how it works for you!
This improvement is available in the latest Apple update.

Changing Default Font TextBox
After the latest update, I can’t find a way to set a default font and size for the textbox, unlike before when you can just click the icon and store the current font and size as default. Right now, every time you add a textbox, you have to start typing from blue, size 10, Modern font and change it manually.
105 votesHello! The option to set the default style for text boxes is already available.
You can do it in two ways:
- From the text box object menu (tap the three dots → Save as Default).
- From the Text Tool floating menu (tap the T with a heart icon). This icon becomes active whenever your current settings differ from the default.
You can save any settings as default: color, size, font, text style, alignment, line height, and text box style.
Let us know if it works for you!

Add Tape Tool
Tape…Notability just published an update to allow something like white out tape that can be tapped to make transparent and then tapped again to ”reapply.”
Teaching implications of such a tool are obvious and awesome.
Please give us such a feature.

The Tape Tool is a great way to study using active recall. It allows you to hide and reveal information in your notebooks with a single tap.
For more details, please check out this article.
Feel free to share your feedback and let us know how the feature works for you! If you’re already actively using this tool and have new suggestions, please submit them through the ideas portal.

[Eraser] Move eraser to the toolbar
Moving the eraser types (Stroke Eraser, Standard Eraser and Precision Eraser) to the toolbar on the right, where the eraser size already is, would make switching easier. Currently you have to always go to the eraser menu which gets stressful.
Thank you!17 votesHello! With the recent update, the eraser has been moved from the Writing menu to the main toolbar.
Feel free to check it out!
