  1. I really like the new update with the flashcards and things you've improved on.

    However I noticed that I am unable to view the flashcards all at once like a notebook.

    !! I would love it if you can implement a feature where you can just see all flashcards on the thumbnails like you would with a notebook.

    When you have a lot of flashcards it's time consuming to find a single one of them if you want to change something.

    !! The search has yet to be implemented.

    Not on laptop, nor on mobile. I hope you can implement…

  2. It would be nice to have different settings between the two screens of GoodNotes. I usually take notes on separate paper while reading a book. However, I'd like to use the vertical scroll option for reading and the horizontal scroll option for the paper I take notes on. While yes, I can read the pdf file vertically on a separate tab (not using GoodNotes), I do also annotate the book while taking notes. Therefore, it would be nice to have the two separated screens have different scroll directions.

  3. I hope you consider the zoom writing page on the right side. Just to let you know, I’m using 2 windows just to write. And I’m writing this way, as it is more convenient. Lol and the tools should be on the right side too, when this happens - for convenience.

  4. It would be useful, once a single recording is selected, to be able to show only that single audio in the toolbar and not all the recordings glued together, because the more recordings one has, the harder it becomes to navigate them with precision and accuracy.

  5. For example, I have different colours for Cornell-styled templates uploaded in the same Group of Templates.
    If I were to drag open a new page when I am writing on a Notebook, it would be cool and existing if the next colour is randomised.

  7. It would be extremely beneficial to adopt some formatting options for text, bulleted lists, and outlines similar to typical document editing programs, such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs. While the app is currently great, the lack of an option to create an outline-style text box is a huge inconvenience. If you could make an outline with roman numerals and tab over for uniform subsections the app could save countless frustrating situations that students face having to use multiple document programs. While this may seem like a small problem, it is the only thing preventing GoodNotes from completely perfecting the…

  9. My school uses a Learning Management System (LMS) which accepts LTI1.3. It would be amazing if GoodNotes could also have an LTI1.3 option- which would allow my students the ability to use/access their GoodNotes in the LMS (and turn in assignments there).

  13. Wanna divide {ONLY Straight Line} button from {Square,Triangle,Circle} button because whenever I write / before conjunction or kinda adverb, it always becomes curve.

    Also, that suggested {ONLY Straight Line} button needs to include Highlighter, too. Because that Highlighter's straight option does not works well and it highlights as curve. But my book in PDF does not curved.

    I want to study in a effective way with fast writing straight lines instead of drawing fine art curve. But currently, Goonotes5 on iPad enforce me art on my textbook PDF.

    So JUST make {ONLY Straight Line} button including pen and highlighter.

  15. The toolbar should be movable from its usual fixed spot (top or bottom). And when you start scribbling notes, the toolbar should go transparent. This would be so great to have!

  18. after the voice recording update, when I use split view using the under toolbar, the recording bar comes up and I cannot use the toolbar. This problem only happens when I use the under toolbar. For me, the under toolbar is much more comfortable to use, but I cannot use this anymore because of this error. I'm waiting for the new update and bug fix, but I couldn't see the changes even if I update my iPad and good notes app in the app store. I hope this problem is improved so this bug will be eliminated.

  19. Tool to highlight specific words/phrases/diagrams and back-link them all together. Would work similar to the search function for words but would allow you to create faster connections between ideas by simply clicking on the linked text in the note.

    Could even automatically take all back linked pieces of text and combine into one temporary page.

  20. When using the text feature, I often just use too much time selecting the fonts, font sizes or the positioning. It would be nice to have a feature like we have in Microsoft Word for example, where you could store the setting for each type of your text and switch between all of them with just one or two clicks. But I would prefer it to be in a smaller and more subtle way.
