  2. For requesting dictionary or translator, other apps such as Book in all iOS can do touch or tap in PDF file so I can read and take note in PDF file that is academic paper for taking some importance note like unknown word's for better understanding when I comeback to read.

    I feel a bit sad when my GoodNote cannot do like that. However, I don’t sure it’s hard or not if developer will add dictionary or translator into GoodNote by default.

  3. In dark mode, the contrast when clicking on the math preview is poor. The font color should be white, not dark.

  4. I am sad that a similar request had been closed so im trying again: to have the possibility to make a note sheet beside the script but in the same document would be awesome! I struggle a lot with this in Goodnotes, I use the app for all my university stuff and when I go through the documents I always have to insert a clear page and scroll. it would be nice to get some sort of note sheet or postIt beside. That would also be very practical if we want to export all the notes out the document.
    I…

  5. Dear GoodNotes Software Engineers,
    As a regular user of GoodNotes, I am writing to share a concern and a suggestion that I believe would enhance the user experience. I have attached a photo to illustrate my point.
    As an accountant, I frequently use payroll forms and other specific templates in my work. However, adding these favorite pages to GoodNotes currently requires me to navigate to the main menu and import them each time. This process is somewhat cumbersome and time-consuming.
    I would like to propose the addition of a new feature: a dedicated tab or shortcut within the app that…

  6. Sticky Notes
    - Sticky notes should impose text size when resized
    - Text should be stuck on the sticky note and not laying on top of it
    - Allow sticky notes to go outside of a page
    - add a tethering point which can tether a specific point on the notebook, and a spot on the sticky note which will allow for it to be moved while also maintaining its connection to the text

  7. It would be really cool to be able to press "Ctrl" on your Keyboard and use the mouse scroll-wheel to zoom in and out on a page on the Windows App. This would make navigating the App on Windows much easier and more intuitive.

  10. I really like the new pencil writing tool, it’s definitely my favorite to write with in terms of smoothness and just what I like for journaling - but I can’t actually use it because it’s SOOO LIGHT. Like its opacity is WAY WAY DOWN. Can it be like an actual pencil?? So I can write with it and actually be able to read it??

  12. We need a kind of way to sync it cross-platform without needing to use iCloud... I'd love to have my files on my PC and access on my Ipad or phone without having to ALWAYS export it. I don't use iCloud... and I can't even share it using a local sharing or a sharing using any other cloud service as the base for it.

  14. As a Physics teacher I have to do so much calculations while solving numerical. It will be very helpful if we have apple math notes with all the features like graph plotting and variable detection etc integrated to goodnotes.

  15. I think that the file method is time-consuming, especially if the material is divided into more than one part, I suggest a method such as a divide.

  16. 앱스토어 리뷰를 보시는지 모르겠어서 사이트에 와서 글 남깁니다.

    1. 올가미기능의 작동오류 --> 올가미기능을 사용해서 도형을 옮기려는데 인식이 안 됩니다. 우연찮게 한 번 올가미에 묶여서 옮겨도, 다시 같은 위치에 시도하면 또 안 됩니다. 제발 수정해주세요. 전에는 잘 작동하던 기능이 이제는 오류가 난다는게 어이가 없습니다.
    2. 굿노트6로 업데이트한 후에, 도형을 복제 시 뜨는 팝업에서 바로 색수정을 할 수 없게되었습니다. 다시 기존에 가능했던 것처럼 바꿔주세요. 왜 생산성이 저하되고, 되지도 않는 올가미로 한 번 더 선택해서 시도하게 하시는지 모르겠네요.

    개선부탁합니다.

    원래 하시던 걸 잘 하시면서 새로운 걸 도입 하는게 올바른 성장방향이라고 생각합니다. 부탁합니다.^^ 왜 기존에 잘 사용하던 걸 쓰고있는데 화가 나는지 모르겠습니다.

  18. Just like how we can undo a stroke through the Apple Pencil pro palette, can we get both the undo and redo? I tend to accidentally undo too many strokes and it would be nice to have the redo function right there rather than reaching up to the toolbar. I know it’s not a critical feature but would be nice for efficiency! Thank you!

  20. Many of us use Goodnotes to take notes but are also using to do apps/task management apps (e.g. Todoist, SkedPal) to keep track of our work. We used to be able to take handwritten notes, convert to text, and then run a shortcut that would push it out to todoist; however, that seems to be broken. Any foothold you can provide that would allow for easy integration to a task management app would be amazing - I’d be able to quickly move my todos out of my notes and into my task list and I’d be so productive (…granted I’d…
