  1. Hi there.
    It would be useful to have better integration with Apple shortcuts. For example, something simple like "email document to this sender" would make workflows more efficient. I'm often emailing documents to one particular sender, so by having a single button to press to email a document to the same sender would be beneficial. Other examples would be to import documents to Goodnotes, or export them to a folder.

  3. So often lecture slides are provided as PDFs with absolutely no room on them to make additional notes of your own...

    It would be great to have the option to convert a page to a "handout" view (i.e. like PowerPoint handout options), with either a single or multiple page slide.

    Having the option to do this at the point of import, or (additionally) to convert a page to a handout by 'editing' the page later would be awesome!

  4. The new function is great! I think however we could take better advantage of the space by making landscape cards that fill the screen and flip to reveal the answer, since it is very hard to read half page cards if they are small, especially if we can’t zoom in on them

  5. Add a keyboard echo so users can hear what they are typing.

    Please consider (even if votes are not as high as other requests) as this would help low vision users. A student I work with would benefit greatly from this.

  6. Please add a feature where I can view all of the phrases/sentences I’ve highlighted in a particular document, sorted by highlight color and arranged by page order. Preferably exportable into a PDF file. It would be very useful for students like me. Thanks!

  9. A feature that would allow you to put transparent lines/ grid over any page and can be added and removed when needed to assist with note taking. This would be incredibly helpful when annotating imported documents such as powerpoint slides. The feature would help people make their notes neat and tidy.

  11. Add a feature, so that the pen size stays the same pixel amount, no matter how much the user zooms in, similar to how the rubber always looks like the same size.
    I am so confused not to have found a lot of this request before, since i really get annoyed of not having this function.
    Whenever i zoom in, in order to write something in a smaller space, i would really appreciate not having to change the pen width/size manually.

    Besides that i really like your App :)

  12. 目前使用的mac端goodnote存在严重的掉帧问题,尤其是在放大缩小页面,以及垂直滚动时,只有过降低app分辨率来缓解,但依旧卡顿

    无论是ipad还是mac,使用触控板双指上下滑动页面时,无法停顿(打断滑动),其他app在页面滑动过程中若再次将双指放到触控板上,滑动便会被打断。goodnote无法做到这点,这导致需要大量翻页时十分难受。

  14. Once I draw a square or retangle it would be good to select that shape with the lasso tool and then be able to adjust the shapes size.

  15. I write exercises for my music students. When synchronising, I would like to have an option, that students can ‘ read only’ instead of ‘read and write’ . Just like many iCloud services work.
    And how do I change the name of a folder? Can’t figure it out.
    Great App! Thank you!

  17. I hope GoodNotes add a capability to change Text box into Text Callout. In reviewing engineering drawings sometimes we need to pointed out with an Arrow which one that we are commenting to.

  20. When I try to activate the option "Get shareable link" an error pops up very often saying that the Goodnotes server is too busy, and asks me to retry in a few seconds or minutes. Recently, this error pops up more frequently than before. Can you improve the server that is offering this service please?

    The ability to collaboratively edit a document is very useful, but this problem makes it difficult to exploit it.
