  1. When giving a lesson as a teacher (or generally presenting something with GoodNotes) it's always difficult to view your personal notes on your iPad while sharing the class notes on a projector. Give the option to have a private "notes" page next to each standard page that is publicly shared via AppleTV.

  2. The side-by-side function is good, but it occupies the other app screen for use. Would it be better to have same note but allows two page alignment like a book? So that we would not have to use other app screen, and we view 2 pdf PowerPoint pages at once using one screen.

  4. Meine Idee wäre, dass man mehrere Farbpaletten erstellen kann und zwischen denen hin und her scrollen kann.
    Man könnte sich so zum Beispiel auf der ersten „Seite“ eine Palette für die Arbeit/Schule erstellen und auf der darauf folgenden eine für seinen Kalender.

  6. I often draw all over a page, but then can’t read the text underneath after. There should be a quick and easy way to go back and forth between the unannotated and the annotated page, just like the / button lets you go back and forth between the original and edited photo on Lightroom.

  7. This app can almost do anything. I find myself often sketching out schematics in it. If there were some simple CAD functions such as new lines snapping to an exiting line or junction, or being able to specify the size of the radius of a circle or length of a line so you could draw things to scale. Think of how AMAZING that would be!

  8. Another thing that would be nice is a structuring overview where titles of pages can be added in different layers, like 1.title - 2.title - ... that a structured table of Contents is the result.

  10. Make export work. Currently most exports are lacking some characters, sometimes multiple characters, and different ones in different versions of the file.

  11. Change logged in user:

    Currently I am automatically logged into my Microsoft Account for Work/School. However my notes are on my private account.

    Logging in and out automatically logs you into School account quite rapidly (which can be good in some cases). However it would be beneficial to have a "Change account logged in" option.

    TLDR: Add a change logged in user or stop auto-verification of login of microsoft account to allow one to choose which one you want to log in on.

  14. It would be great if GN had the possibility to have lines in the "zoom" so that handwritten notes can be written straight without having lines in the document itself.

  16. The standard way of using the marker is to draw an ugly form of transparent color above your text. Imagine, you could just recolor the text you have previously written instead with the marker pen in another mode...the standard method of selecting, long pressing and changing color with a menu every time takes soo long. Attached is an image with an example and an icon idea.

  20. When you copy an item and go to paste it again Goodnotes can lag, sometimes up to a minute.

    The issue can occur at anytime but is more prevalent when you are copying something from one page to another in the same document.

    Goodnotes also freezes for up to 30 seconds for no apprent reason every now and then.

    We have 4 I pad

    It appears the delay/lag is occuring while Goodnotes is wrting data to either iCloud, Google Drive or both.

    We have 4 x iPad Pro's running Goodnotes 5 and the issue is present on all 4 devices.
