  1. Cross-Compatability Andriod/IOS/Windows

    Please add this! I love good notes so much but I use an iPad and Samsung phone. I really want to be a digital planner girlie but I don't want to bring my bulky iPad everywhere! I'm so jealous of the iPhone users!

  2. Audio Transcription to 9th gen iPad

    A update for audio transcript for the 9th gen iPad should be made as other note taking apps allow you to do audio transcription on almost relatively new generations of iPads. No reason to pay for goodnotes and while only certain feature are only available to people who have certain iPads.

  3. LOWER price for goodnotes 6 for non-included-languages.

    The new Woodnotes 6 is packed with great functionality. For some people.

    as a user who primarily (99%) writes in my native Swedish language, the experience has actually gotten worse (GN6 interpret my Swedish as wrongfully written English and tries to change it).

    Why do I have to pay extra for a worse product?

    Please offer a version without the language-dependent features for a reduced cost. I have supported GN for a VERY long time, but this makes me feel scammed. Other features that are non-language dependent are making GN6 worth an upgrade, but it's not fair that I have…

  4. Allow text and highlight/writing on flashcards

    The flashcard function could use a lot of improvement. First I copied text from my course notes but then wasn't able to even bold or underline text. I also couldn't use my pen to highlight it. Now the text is all just a blob of words instead of allowing me to indicate important words. Also being able to go back and forth between flashcards and not have to go to the outline every time would be helpful.

  5. Forgot Password Options

    I am silly and forgot my password, I can still access what I have locked using Touch ID but would really appreciate the ability to reset a forgotten password so I can continue using the feature for other notebooks!

  6. Better zooming in the Windows App

    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.

  7. Markers in library

    It would come in handy to have an option for marking items in the library (folders, books, notes,…) by a simple checkbox or different colored backgrounds so that one could see immediately if a document was read and finished already.

  9. Convenient panel

    Why no one is talking about creating a flexible , movable panel that allows user to set the “most usage pen” and some tools? I think Notability do have that. It would be a lotlotlotlot more convenient since we no need switching frequently.and also, double click the screen anywhere to “undo”, enhanced user convenience also.

  11. Typing document feature on website

    Similar to Microsoft Notes , it would be cool to include a document feature that I could also write on, like on the website mabe. For example, with Microsoft Notes you can type in the notebook on you computer, and then using the Microsoft Notes app (on tablet) you can also write on that same notes page. I know we can type notes onto goodnotes, however I like being able to type on my macbook and then if i want to write, transfer over to my ipad.

  12. Online Document Translation Service "Translate"

    Hi everyone! I would like to share my experience of using Translate.com online document translation service. I am often faced with the need to translate legal texts, and I was wondering how accurately this service copes with such tasks. Do you think it is worth relying on automatic translations, or is it better to use the services of professional translators? I'm also wondering what additional features Translate.com offers. Does anyone have any experience with their API?

  13. Typed Text to Handwriting transformation tool

    It is an AI feature that converts typed text into handwritten notes, mimicking the user’s handwriting style. This would be activated when typed text is pasted into GoodNotes.
    - Advantage: This allows for seamless integration of digital and handwritten notes, enabling a more personalized and cohesive note-taking experience.

  14. snap to grid

    As someone who struggles with a physical illness (hand tremors), having a drawn line snap to the background grid of a page or having anything snap to a grid pattern of a page, would really, really help. It seems bizarre that this very basic feature is not available as its available on Notability. It's the single reason I can't switch over completely to Goodnotes, as just about everything is great, except for that very, very important feature.

  15. Paint Bucket Color Fill

    Similar to MS paint it would be useful to have a paint bucket tool that would fill a color inside the lines of a shape. Most of the functionality is already added with the shape fill color option, but for drawings that dont use it there is no efficient way to fill the space.

    The search tab is really helpful but sometimes it’s hard to see the highlighted word I am looking for. Adding the ability to change this color to something brighter would be very helpful!

  17. Tape that snaps to shape

    I love the new tape feature but I have A LOT of content that I need to tape over at a time! I would really love it if we had the option to make a box around what we want to tape and have the shape snap and fill in (like we have for the shape snap feature). My only other option currently is to make the pen as big as possible and color over an entire paragraph at once which has been very time consuming!
