1. Eraser

   We have two gesture options, squeeze and double tap. I would love to be able to set squeeze to bring up/put away the eraser and double tap to switch between my two most recent tools, but ignore the eraser as an option. That way i can go back and forth between my pen a highlighter without having the erase override one. Example: highlight something, double tap to write with the pen, squeeze to erase a mistake, squeeze to return to pen, double tap to go to highlighter.The highlighter/pen sequence could be totally separate from the eraser function.

2. Pen settings

   Please make the pen settings like tip sharpness, pressure, sensitivity, etc. Customised or tailored as per user choice.

   Pen features in Freenotes app provide good handwriting and such should be incorporated in the Goodnotes app too for better user experience.

   Please upgrade these features in the next update.

3. Word should attach to sticker

   Words should be attached to stickers. I use Goodnotes mainly for studying readings, so I would highlight sentences and make some notes on stickers. However, when I move my stickers, the highlights and lines will move too! It really undermines the experience of using Goodnotes to study.

4. Font size adjustment function

   Hi!
   -I want the font size adjustment function to allow selecting the font size display position and entering the size you want to change instead of the slider which makes it very difficult to change
   -Also, I keep changing the font size once but when I exit that area to create a new writing area, I have to drag the slider to adjust the font size again.
   Thanks!

5. Total Time per Document & Overview Charts for All Notes

   I'm genuinely impressed with the timer and stopwatch features. They've been instrumental in boosting my productivity and focus during study sessions by using time-based challenges.

   However, to truly master my time management, I've identified a key missing piece: the ability to review my total time spent across all documents. This macro-level insight is crucial for making informed decisions about where to focus my efforts, allowing me to align my study time with my actual priorities.

   An excellent example of this kind of analytics is found in Jibble. Integrating similar charts and graphs directly within Goodnotes—offering a visual breakdown of my study habits—would be an absolute game-changer. To my knowledge, this level of detailed time tracking analytics is currently absent in competing note-taking apps, positioning Goodnotes to become the undisputed leader in this space.

   Thank you to the entire Goodnotes team for your continuous hard work and for building such a wonderful tool!

7. Added image text OCR functionality

   If you import a document converted into PDF into GoodNote or add an image file as a GoodNote file document as an image file, all pages will be in images. At this time, the text file was converted into an image, so even if you want to select the text, the text will not be selected. Also, since the text is not selected, even if you ask GoodNote AI, the OCR function in the AI function does not seem to work well yet. I hope the OCR function is added when I import the PDF files I have imaged into GoodNote.

8. Innovative Study Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Annotations (Killer Feature for Students)

   Feature Suggestion for GoodNotes: Color-Based Review/Masking Mode
   Subject: Innovative Study Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Annotations (Killer Feature for Students)
   1. Background and User Need
   I am a long-time user of iPhones and MacBooks, yet I prioritize using the Samsung Galaxy Tab because of its superior writing feel and the ability to instantly annotate PDFs. I am currently preparing for professional exams, which requires intensive review and memorization.

   To optimize my study routine, I use a physical method similar to a 'secret pen', where I hide the answers and solutions for efficient self-testing. Implementing this concept into GoodNotes would create a massive competitive advantage and drastically improve the learning efficiency for all students and test-takers.

   1. Proposed Feature: Color-Based Toggle for Hiding/Showing Ink I propose adding a 'Color-Based Masking/Review Toggle' feature to GoodNotes.

   How it Works:

   Setting: Introduce a dedicated setting (e.g., within the Pen Tool Palette or a separate menu) called 'Color Masking Mode'.

   Toggle Action: The user selects specific pen colors (e.g., Red, Pink, Highlight Yellow) and designates them as 'Hidden' colors.

   When the global 'Review Toggle' switch is activated (e.g., a simple button on the toolbar):

   All annotations written in the designated 'Hidden' colors instantly disappear from the screen.

   Toggling the switch again makes the hidden ink reappear immediately.

   1. Key Use Case (From a Test-Taker's Perspective) Preparation: Open a practice test PDF. Write the correct answers in Red and brief explanations in Pink.

   Repeated Study: Activate the 'Review Toggle' to instantly make the Red and Pink ink disappear. This provides a clean, blank test paper for quick re-testing without the need to duplicate or erase the PDF.

   Instant Check: After self-testing, toggle the switch off to re-display the Red answers and Pink explanations in 1 second, allowing for lightning-fast answer verification.

   1. Expected Benefits Maximized Learning Efficiency: Eliminates the need to duplicate $\text{PDF}$s or tediously erase and rewrite answers, saving significant study time.

   Competitive Edge: This is a unique feature currently absent from major competitor note-taking apps. It would serve as a powerful 'Killer Feature' to attract the large and lucrative market of students and professional exam candidates to GoodNotes.

   High User Satisfaction: This function addresses a core pain point for GoodNotes' primary user base, ensuring high practical utility and satisfaction.

   This function has the potential to revolutionize digital note-taking for academic and professional preparation. Thank you for your time and consideration.

9. Issue with different types of documents

   What was the point of dividing typing and writing. There are so many more apps that are better for writing or typing separately. What I liked about Goodnotes is that it didn’t have the hassle of typing a paragraph, printing it or using a different app to make notes on it. For now I will use Word and Notability. I hope there is a way to fix this otherwise I just wasted my money on goodnoted for nothing.

10. Formelschreibfunktion

    Mann kann ja bereits eine mathematische Formel auswählen, in eine Formel umwandeln und danach bearbeiten. Dies ist allerdings sehr kompliziert, da man Funktionen we /fraq oder /phi nicht aus dem Kopf weiß. Man könnte eine Fromelfunktion einfügen, bei der man wie bei einem Taschenrechner verschiedene Funktionen wie einen Bruchstrich oder Wurzel oder hoch und tief schreiben für quadrat ^2, kubik^3 und so weiter sowie eine Suchleiste für Funktionen.

12. Support LAMY safari note+ stylus features?

    Could Goodnotes use the free LAMY iPadOS SDK framework to support all LAMY safari note+ features?

    Lamy is a well-known pen company that recently released an iOS-compatible digital writing stylus, the safari note+, named in part after its iconic fountain pen of the same shape. This stylus features two assignable buttons in addition to pressure sensitivity, palm rejection etc. on apps that support it. Goodnotes does not support those features currently.

    Under a list of recommended apps (Goodnotes included) LAMY calls out that other app's developers could support the safari note+'s features using the free-of-charge LAMY iPadOS SDK framework. Given the LAMY safari's popularity in the fountain pen world, and the likely overlap with Goodnotes users, it would be worthwhile to support the note+. The two assignable buttons alone is also a very compelling feature that offers a wide range of possibilities to advance our note taking.

    Link to framework GitHub: https://github.com/Adonit/LAMY-iPadOS-SDK

13. Bad Performance compared to Apple Notes

    When comparing writing in Goodnotes with Apple notes, Goodnotes fells like the stroke limps behind the Apple Pencil (Pro) when writing. Trust me. Go in Apple Notes and you never want to use Goodnotes again.The Goodnotes 7.0 update is nice but please fix this first!
    Thanks

15. Add Built-in Image Quality Enhancement

    Feature Request:

    Dear Developers,

    I would like to request a built-in image quality enhancement feature for the note-taking app. Imported images often become blurry due to screenshotting or file transfer issues, which affects the reading and viewing experience in notes.

    This feature could include (but not be limited to) AI super-resolution technology—capable of sharpening blurry details, reducing pixelation, and improving overall clarity of imported images. It would greatly enhance the usability of the app when managing image-containing notes, especially for users who frequently add screenshots or transferred images.

    Thank you for considering this request!

16. Better Text Editor - Like Notion

    Notion like document editor. On which I can annotate with pencil. Code format text, colored text, checkbox, toggle and much more like in notion. The current text editor is too rigid. It must be made a bit more user friendly.

17. Directly Import PowerPoints

    Notability allows you to drag and drop PowerPoints. To use Goodnotes, I have to open the PowerPoint, export it as a PDF (you must be a Microsoft 365 subscriber to do this), and then import it to Goodnotes. Since all my lectures are PowerPoints, I uses Notability solely because I don't have to open ~15 PowerPoints to export them as PDFs every week.

18. Goodnotes on Macbook, PDFs text selection not present for copying text or highlight :/

    I have noticed that, on the GoodNotes app for MacBook, I am unable to select or copy text from PDFs, even though the same PDFs allow text selection and copying in other PDF readers. I kindly request that you add this functionality to the GoodNotes app, as it would greatly enhance usability and user experience. Thank you for considering this feature enhancement.

20. bring back the arrow keys to move the cursor when typing

    I use goodnotes without an external keyboard and I found extremely useful the left/right arrow keys to move the cursor when typing because many times it is not easy to place the cursor exactly in the desired position.

    Can you bring them back?
