  • Create a new thread if it’s new. If your suggestion is unique, start a new thread. Write a short, clear headline that quickly conveys your main idea, and include context and details in the description.
  • Separate multiple ideas. If you have several suggestions, split them into individual topics so we can review (and others can vote on) each one more effectively.

  1. Hide/Unhide region selected by Lasso.

    Extremely useful for slowly displaying the contents during a technical lecture

    Select a region. Add option to hide content (In addition to Screenshot). Replace that region with a small square with a number (for sequencing). Tapping the squre again makes content visible.

  4. Box cloud support in goodnotes 5, it was present in goodnotes 4

    Please return the box cloud support in goodnotes 5. I put a lot of files on my box account and not want to switch to other cloud storage. It used to be available in goodnotes 4 for auto-backup. Thanks

  9. Mirror presenter page: scale to align top and sides rather than top and bottom

    I use goodnotes on an ipad when teaching large calculus classes. The vertical scroll feature with "mirror presenter page" is great, but currently the projected image is scaled so that the top and bottom of the student view matches the top and bottom of the ipad view. This forces the instructor to turn the ipad sideways (in landscape orientation) to make use of the full width of the projector screen. But then the zoom window interface hides at least 1/3 of the screen on the ipad, obscuring much of what the students see from the instructor's view. It would be…

  10. Automatic Heading Numbering & Grammarly Integration.

    I create my notes off professors’ notes, and thus I need an option to go to a subsequent number when I hit enter. I still use Microsoft Word for this because GOODNOTES 5 doesn't offer this possibility. Also, it would be great if you could integrate GRAMMARLY to GOODNOTES 5.

  18. More highlighter colors displayed

    A lot of users of Goodnotes are students in which they use this for studying and reviewing. I suggest that instead of 3 colors of highlighters being readily showed, how about increase them to 5. So that we don’t have to change it from time to time. And sorry but a lot of people uses at least 5 highlighter colors when studying

  19. macOS share system extension

    macOS version desperately needs to be included in the share menu so apps can send data to Goodnotes e.g send webpage content and share PDF to be imported into GN5.

  20. Customized colours when using The Lazo/Lasso instrument to change the color of a handwritten note

    There is often the need to change the colour of a handwritten note or a marker sign through the lasso/lazo instrument, but we can’t choose between our personally customized colours: instead there are only a few default ones, that never match the ones that we have been using for the rest of the document.
    It would be very handy of you add this functionality to the said instrument.
