  1. I would love to be able to sort my notes by the date of their creation. This would help organizing my Notes with the same chronology like in a school class for example. Before exams, I could learn topics in the exact same order, as they were presented in class.

  2. Please add a recording progress window that follows the slides/notes, so I always know where I am in the lecture. Also, let us click on a slide to jump to that exact part of the recording and add simple flags/bookmarks to mark key moments.

  4. I’m a daily GoodNotes user from South Korea. I’ve been using GoodNotes for several years, and I truly appreciate how powerful and intuitive it usually is.

    However, after the recent update, the new sorting tab has become noticeably inconvenient. Previously, I could change the sorting method with a single tap, but now I need to tap once to open the menu and then tap again to choose the sorting option. This adds an unnecessary step to a feature I use frequently.

    It would be much more user-friendly to either:
    • Restore the previous one-tap sorting behavior, or
    • If the…

  7. It would be great if it were possible to change the spacing or the size of the lines, grid, etc., since the default one is very large and makes it hard to keep notes neat. This option would really improve the experience, as sometimes the default templates make the notes too big and uncomfortable to use.

  9. I noticed that ever since updating to Goodnotes 6, it has become quite laggy, much more noticable when writing things in a hurry. I belive it is an app issue because using the Apple Notes app seems just fine. Hope this is fixed soon since Goodnotes is now on a subscription basis.

  11. I would like to suggest adding a feature that allows the one-time payment plan to be linked with Windows as well. I wouldn’t mind if this comes as an additional paid add-on.

  14. Easier sorting of tabs. I usually have 10 documents open at the same time. If I want to change the order, it requires a lot of dexterity. Perhaps a move function with arrows could be implemented. Thank you very much.

  15. It is inconvenient to have to erase each page one by one when deleting them. I want to be able to erase all the pages I want at once. Please allow me to erase them by selecting the pages I want to in the edit and pressing Erase Page.

  16. As someone who struggles with a physical illness (hand tremors), having a drawn line snap to the background grid of a page or having anything snap to a grid pattern of a page, would really, really help. It seems bizarre that this very basic feature is not available as its available on Notability. It's the single reason I can't switch over completely to Goodnotes, as just about everything is great, except for that very, very important feature.

  19. Similar to uploading new brushes, making the ability to add palettes. I want to be able to choose stickers and a palette of colors I've made. They do this in Procreate and I love it.

  20. Being able to customize other colors other than blue. Also add wallpaper to the background UI would be great.
