  1. Page Turner doesn't work when using iPad Pro 12.9 3rd Generation 4th Generation.

    I heard that it sometimes works on iPad Pro 11 inch, iPad Pro 12.9 inch 5th generation M1, but it doesn't work on iPad Pro 12.9 inch 3rd generation 4th generation. I thought it might be a compatibility problem with the page turner, so I tested 4 units for each different type of page turner, but it doesn't work. A typical example is that it does not work with iRig Blue Turn products.

  2. importiertes Bild Bearbeiten,

  3. Currently when I search a keyword, it will show the search features of both my handwritten keywords + the typed keywords. But I want to search keywords quickly without showing the handwritten contents. In another words I can add some typed label for some sections header for clearer structure.

    Can the search function allow the options to search ONLY typed words?

  5. I like the presets that you can customize on GoodNotes and having the keyboard shortcuts makes it easy to use a macropad to help ease my workflow even more!

    I would like to take it a step further by having key shortcuts for quick selecting the preset colors and sizes so that I don't have to lift my pen off away from the writing area to select a color or change my tool size.

    It's a small thing, but I think it would really be cool to implement this feature or something similar for people who really want to optimize…

  7. It is so easy to accidentally close a tab/page. Please tweak the close tab button to be double tap.

    Would be nicer if you add a function to restore deleted tab.

  8. Have a choice to upload many photos from our library and on the + page to make a file. So far, we can only add one at a time, but it will be more convenient if we could choose multiple at a time as well.

  9. See two sequential pages from the same notebook on one screen. Similar to 2-page scroll in Adobe Acrobat or Mac Preview.
    Using the split screen mode in iPad OS 13 doesn't work because you have to manually scroll each window two pages at a time which is awkward

  10. Eraser should work on text. Right now you can only lasso and delete or edit the text. It would be nice to be able to erase a part of the text without having to delete/redo or edit the whole thing

  11. I would like to suggest adding more options for manual backup such as adding more formats like instead of just backup it with .goodnotes, we have the option to choose the format as same as the automated backup

  12. Goodnotes is great. It could be SO much better, though with a few quality of life add-ons. Having more pen styles would make the note-taking process so much more enjoyable and streamlined.

    I especially enjoy Microsoft OneNote's pens including glitter, rainbow, etc. Right now, I switch between apps because Goodnotes is lacking in a lot of areas that other apps supply (while still being my go-to note-taking app).

  13. Could the color palette in text or highlighter tools have a feature where a press and hold, or a hover shows the name (in large text) of the color so that our color blind learners can still follow the directions that involve colors for school work?

  16. Use-Case: I use one document for all my call minutes. Then I take over some content into different systems or actions and mark the page as done with the green highlighter on one of the top corners.

    Problem: When searching my minutes, I can't see if a page is done or filter done pages.

    Ideas: Allow me to
    - set a tag per page and have search show/ignore specific tags
    - show a full preview of the page beside the zoomed hit are, so I can spot my marker

  17. I really hope that this app will also enter the Google Store. I'd like to know if there's any plan to do that.

    Additionally, it would be nice to use various pens, such as sign pens and pencils.

  18. 我是一个书写爱好者,也是Goodnotes的忠实用户。我认为钢笔的压感并不真实。与此同时,我发现激光笔的压感做得很好(很真实)。因此,开发者们能否考虑一下把激光笔的压感用到钢笔工具上呢。

  19. It would be a lot more useful to make more writing space and less distractions if the tab and document bar would be hidden while writing, I only need the tools bar, not the other bar, it only occupies useful space.

  20. I know in addition to the 3 standard colors and the option to purchase templates and import templates. At least for those who paid for the GoodNotes Premium option allow users to pick any color papers ( e.g. colors from a color picker). I enjoy the app, but also enjoy color coding. I believe this will be a good thing to add to the app.
