Favorite Templates
There much templates to choose from… but most of them I don’t use. How about choosing favorite templates which you can choose on the top. That might speed up the workflow.

Make a visible scrolling bar
it's really annoying to have to leave the pen to scroll with the mouse because the scrolling bar is invisible. WHY?! i want to scroll with the bar on the side without putting away the pen to grab the mouse and scroll with the wheel. yes the scroll bar reappears when i scroll, but it's useless because it disappears after 2 seconds and does not appear in any way other than wheel scrolling with the mouse. VERY ANNOYING! scrolling should be available in few ways (like Adobe Acrobat) but here for some reason you only can scroll with the wheel.…

Added page will be in the same rotation orientation of the previous one
Because many teachers speak quickly, the best way to take notes in class is to upload the PDF slides and annotate them directly. Most of the time, these slides are in landscape orientation (wider than they are tall). However, when you want to write your own summaries or do homework, it's much more convenient to use portrait orientation (taller than they are wide).
Currently, every time I add a new page after the slides, I have to manually rotate it, which is very annoying. It would be so much quicker if I only had to rotate the first added page,…1 vote -
Movable minimap in whiteboard
Many things are are already moveable to accomodate different writing styles and workflows, which is amazing. That being said, even though I find that the minimap in the whiteboard is a very important and useful tool, as a lefty I am constantly hitting it accidentally (even when it is minimized) and it can be quite frustrating to have this be an issue when this has a solution that shows up in other parts of the UI/UX. I was suprised to find out that the minimap is locked in place in the bottom left corner even though it appears to be…

Remove search bar popup when moving files
A very easy fix I hope - please could the search bar not auto-select when trying to move files? The keyboard coming up is very jarring, blocks half of the location list and it feels more appropriate to not have this as default - personally I have never needed to search for a location and I imagine there aren't many use cases where users have so many folder layers that they require a search every time!

Scroll to add new page
When scrolling to add a new page it auto jumps to the bottom of the new page. Instead it should stay at the top of the new page as this is where you will be writing next

3 thumbnails on the ipad mini
4 thumbnails in one row makes it very hard to see what page is it. 3 thumbnails should be better to discern what is the page contents.

Request for Page Navigation Keyboard Shortcuts on iPad
Hi Goodnotes Team,
I am a heavy user of Goodnotes on iPad with a Magic Keyboard.
I would like to suggest adding keyboard shortcuts for page navigation, such as:
Next Page: (e.g., Cmd + Right Arrow)
Previous Page: (e.g., Cmd + Left Arrow)
Go to Specific Page: (e.g., Cmd + G)Currently, I have to manually swipe or tap the screen to turn pages even while typing, which interrupts the workflow.
Having these shortcuts would significantly improve productivity for users who use external keyboards.
Please consider adding this feature in a future update. Thank you!

Option to undo closed tab and pin certain open documents
I have two similar requests:
I am a private tutor so I usually have a couple of standard documents open on my iPad all the time (e.g. PDF of the periodic table). When I close the app (not minimise) or when I press the x button by mistake, I need to re locate it in my folders. I know I can 'favourite' it but it would be so much easier if there is an option to pin it (sort of like in Safari/other web browsers where you can pin open windows). That way it will always open when I open…

Larger previews in miniature mode
A function where you can enlargen the miniatures in the miniature view mode would be handy. That way it is easier to find the correct page which you are looking for.
Perhaps through a preview mode for the individual pages, or better: a setting to see the pages in different patterns e.g. 3 pages next to each other, 2 pages next to each other or single page.
This would come especially handy for flashcards as well, as those are very hard to organise in the miniature mode.

Scroll to current page in Miniature View
As of now, when you open the Miniature View of a Notebook, the pages are shown from the very start.
I suggest an option to either show the current page first or a button/option to auto-scroll to the current page.
Whenever I work with 300+ flashcards and just want to change the order of a card in the miniature view, I have to scroll a long time to find the current card which I am looking for. It's also very easy to miss when you have a large amount of cards/pages, since you only have the thin blue lining of…

Please enable the Zoom In / Zoom Out options on the MacOS Desktop App
By default, macOS allows us to use 'Command +' to zoom in and 'Command -' to zoom out of any app. This seems to be disabled on the Goodnotes app. Please try to enable this, it helps a ton on scaled displays.

Squeeze Toolbar should always be on top
I think that the "Squeeze" Toolbar should always be on top layer of UI. Now that when you use the lasso tool it auto pops up the the UI bar. If I use squeeze since that was the last action I took that should be the UI element that I see.
Hopefully this is an easy fix.

page browsing by simple tapping instead of swiping
Swiping takes more time and effort for browsing through a document as compared to, e.g., tapping.
In many documents, I see an empty space to the left and right of the page. Couldn‘t this be used to allow tapping to effect immediate page browsing?

[Import] Preselection of import option
The last update brought up the new window which comes up when importing a new pdf document or picture. In that windows you can select if you want to open the document in a new file or put it into an existing notebook. It would be great if you can add a setting possibility to preselect one of these options. I'm never using the possibility to import as a new document but with the new update I'm forced to make a few more clicks now which is annoying.

Swipeable Menus
To making changing between the different menus (i. e. between pen settings, eraser settings) easier and less of a reach, being able to swipe between tool menus to choose different settings would be convenient. For instance, assuming the menu is on the left of the screen and we’re currently on the eraser menu, swiping left from the menu to the edge of the screen (1A) would go to the pen menu(1B). Alternatively swiping right from the edge of the screen to the menu from the eraser settings (2A) would go to text menu (2B). I’ve attached screenshots with arrows for…

Make the pop-up menu that has the font size, color, format a floating menue.
Make the pop-up menu for font color, size, and format float. Whenever I want to adjust or edit a text, the menu box pops up and gets in my way of what I want to change. I flip my screen to try to get around it but the menu is still in the way. I can’t drag it to move it.

Selection tool
Dear Goodnotes Team,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to share feedback regarding a recent change in the selection tool behavior in Goodnotes Web.
After the latest update, whenever we select elements on the canvas, several options such as Copy, Cut, Transform, Change Color, etc., automatically appear directly on top of the selected content. This makes the canvas look cluttered and makes it harder for both teachers and students to clearly view or reposition the selected items.
Earlier, the selection experience was much cleaner. When using the lasso selection tool, only the blue dots appeared around the…

Proposal to Improve the Template Change Feature (+ Add “Replace Page” and “Replace File” Functions)
Proposal to Improve the Template Change Feature (+ Add “Replace Page” and “Replace File” Functions)
Currently, Goodnotes does not offer a feature that allows users to replace pages in the same way as a “Change PDF” function. While there is a template change feature, it is limited to Goodnotes’ built-in templates and note-style formats, and requires importing content into Goodnotes first.
In many cases, there are situations where a page needs to be replaced—for example, when a lecture material contains typos or when an updated version of the file is provided. Therefore, it would be highly useful to have a…
