  1. Just like the laser pen but stays on the page until I turn it off. This way, I can cover the notes with tape and work through my calculations with a temporary pen without messing up my notes.

  3. Let us being able to add LaTeX expressions as a TEXT input.
    You can either render it using mathjax, katex, ...

    Reason :
    The recognition gets really confused and is pretty much unusable for serious mathematics ( people who study mathematics ) : integrals, sets with subscripts, norms, ...

  4. It is vital for me to see the date of the creation of my page. Some pages are memories from trips. Some notes are memories from a special event on a work day  . I would love to be able to see the date and time, and there may be more details about the specific page. I was so surprised to find that you cannot :)

  5. I love the ruler, however, why is the inch version set to 1/10 of an inch increments? This makes zero sense. It's a metric ruler with an inch baseline and is of ZERO value. I use this feature to get rough square footage calculations from architectural drawings and although it works ok - if you are claiming to have a ruler, please have a "ruler."

  7. When opening only one file, the location of the closed file and the location of the three dots on the split screen on the iPad are too close to each other, so it is easy to click wrong!

  8. Often when using the eraser, I find myself having forgot that I have selected a size too big and end up erasing too much. Therefore, it would be nice to preview the size of the eraser on hover, essentially the same way it is done in the native apps.

  9. When adding a link to a page, the dialog box has the field called "Page" and it shows thumbnail for all pages to select from. It would be so nice to have "Page Outlines" option in there.

  10. Hi Goodnotes-Team,
    as an architect, I often use Goodnotes on the building site to take measurements on the spot. I have to take a relatively large number of photos for this. It would be extremely useful to be able to take several photos at the same time and not have to start the process again after each photo.
    Best regards Tobi

  11. I currently have to use multiple apps to crop or split PDF pages before then adding them to the app. Would it be possible to add this as a function within GoodNotes?

  12. The current colours for folders are extremely limited. I use Goodnotes for many different things, and I am having to repeat folder colours which makes it hard to quickly find things I need. I think it would be useful to rather have a colour wheel or similar option, or even a way to add a photo as the folder cover rather than just a small generic icon which is hard to see.

  14. I noticed that while scrolling through large documents with the toolbar in the downward position, the scroll bar tends to disappear behind the toolbar. The scroll bar then becomes impossible to ‘grab’ without manually scrolling to a higher point in the document where the scroll re-emerges again.
    I left a few screenshots to try and illustrate this issue.
    Thank you in advance !

  15. I have some feedback and features that I would like to see added to the current (experimental) math conversion tool. Currently when you convert handwritten math to typed text it sometimes doesn't include all the math, or read some of it wrong, so I tried editing the latex text that can be seen at the bottom right other converting, but I am unable to edit it. Therefore, it would be useful to be able to edit the typed math right after conversion to be able to rectify some errors in the Al's interpretation and/or simply add things.

    Also, please make…

  18. Please allow the tool bar to be moved to the sides, containing it to the top or bottom limits my ability to access all toolbar options quickly since I have to scroll to get different pen colors and time is precious in classes where the professor lectures quickly. And especially as a left handed person, I would love to be able to move the tool bar to the right side please.

  19. Hi, I think it would be great if we could have the option to add to the dictionary an abbreviation matching it with its full word. i.e. writing "freq." and then adding it so it matches with "frequent"; writing "w/" and matching it in the dictionary with "with". This would be great for quick note writing and "helping" the AI make sense of what we write

  20. 1.First of all, we cannot edit when we are not connected to the internet. This is really bad. We should be able to use the application while offline.
    Also, the writing experience with the stylus pen in the android version is not smooth.

    2.You should make a trash bin.

    3.In order to use pen options more effectively, you should make a floating favorite bar and you should not set a number limit on this feature and we should be able to position this bar horizontally or vertically.

    4.There is a 100 mb file size limit when importing notes. This is…
