  1. I hope there's a function for reading the notes or pdfs aloud to improve learning experience. Thank you.

  2. Hello,
    when I view or edit my PDFs which are not vertical (e.g. A4 format), GoodNotes does not allow me to zoom out more. This would be necessary sometimes to have a better overview of your PDFs. Instead, one has to use the little page viewer, which is kind of a struggle. Why does GoodNotes not allow more zooming out?
    Best regards,
    Carlo

  3. import a document and export it after editing is a working way, but a bit difficult/ long. it would be nice to open a document directly from an external folder (eg dropbox or box or iCloud) with a possibility to save it directly to this external folder without having to import and export it manually. maybe a way to integrate this is via an background temporary folder, as goodnotes imports and exports the document automatically

  4. So your hold to draw feature is really great. But when I make circle and hold the pen instead of drawing a circle shape it returns a square or rectangular shape. Therefore, I request you to pls add a feature to draw circles when you hold the pen after drawing a rough shape

  6. Vielen Dank für die Umsetzung meiner Idee in erster Linie.

    Es wäre super, wenn man die Farbstifte nur in einem Einstellungsmodus hinzufügen könnte. Auch wäre super, wenn die Stiftstärke wieder links der Farbstifte mit 3 verschiedenen Dicken verfügbar wäre.

    Noch besser wäre, wenn die Gesamte Leiste einstellbar wäre.

  8. Möglichkeit das man die Sortierung in „Datum“, „Titel“ und „Art“ nur Lokal in jeder Unterebene vornimmt. In der Ordner Übersicht könnte man also zum Beispiel nach „Titel“ sortieren und im jeweiligen Ordner nach „Datum“.

  9. The problem is that GoodNotes is publishing new features since months but they don’t work on improving it. You have all the time buggy experiences and the user experience is the worst.

  10. When learning with the new flash card function, I like to copy/paste sentences from other documents onto a flash card and highlight the words I want to learn the translation of. (more context ->better learning)
    Implementing a „Big, cursive, underscore ability“ like in other GoodNotes-documents or some other highlighting-option would be greatly appreciated.

  11. It has been mentioned before, but it's worth repeating: Searching within specific folders would be incredibly helpful on the GoodNotes note-taking app. GoodNotes is an excellent note-taking app that works well on all systems, and it would be even better if it could be used across all platforms, including Windows. Improving the search function would be a significant improvement for everyone, especially those who rely on the app for note-taking.

    Furthermore, it would be fantastic if an online collection of documents could be created. This would allow users to access their records through a secure login on a website. Finally,…

  14. I miss the bookmark icon too, but I also understand that toolbar space gets scarce - there might even be other features upcoming that need it.
    So why not overlay the bookmark icon/button on the actual page - in the top left or right corner, like every ebook reader app does?
    (Zooming and scrolling ensures it could not cover up something on the page.)

  15. Would like to be able to add a template for larger paper

    At present, the largest paper template is a tabloid, but due to the nature of the work, I am used to thinking and recording on larger paper. In other recording apps, there are 300 times the size, such as "Unlimited Draft". Although I don't need such a large paper, I still hope There are larger paper templates, such as large newspaper templates or modules that are several times or even ten times larger than the current tabloid. Thanks.

  17. I type or dictate my notes, so they are typed on my mac.
    It would be nice to be able to do an outline format for my notes.

    this is a pain in goodnotes and since I don't just use it as a planner but a notetaking app it is something that is critical.

    I've actually started checking out other apps for class and bsns notes.

  18. If you write a text and just want to move one word / sentence, you have to be very careful that your selection doesn’t touch other parts you don’t want to select.
    It would be great if GoodNotes could figure out, what you want to select. The Apple Notes App does this.

  19. Toggle Menu like the one in Notion would be a game changer for Goodnotes. It will help me as a medical student to recap and memorize my notes in an organized way, leave Notion and use only one app that has everythig i need.

  20. Hello! Thanks for the great app. It would be really cool to add a third scrolling mode: instant slide switching. This is sorely lacking. When I make podcasts, I have to erase in the reverse order, and return the elements as the podcast progresses. Switching (seamless) would be much easier
