  1. Add an option to show starred folders at the top.
    Use case: I have a folder for every class at university in the root folder and star classes that I attend at the current semester.
    Having a single sub-folder for every semester is not an option for me, because some classes span multiple semesters and often I need quick access to old classes and dont want to click every sub-folder to search for the correct folder.

  3. A stabilizer setting for pens in GoodNotes!

    Currently, when you go look on the GoodNotes App, on the Apple App Store, the previews show that you're able to easily draw these examples and diagrams for notes.. but it's VERY difficult to do in reality.

    If you talk to any Digital Artist, they'll tell you a stabilizer one of the most important features to have in any drawing program.

    I'm not trying to draw anything fancy, really. It's just really hard to draw remotely anything without the lines being jagged.

    More flexibility with the brush settings, in general, would help users…

  4. It would be handy to be able to scroll beyond the page. This would enable me/us to write on the page bottom while the hand palm is still resting on the screen instead of having it resting uncomfortably on the edge of the device.

    Otherwise I LOVE the app and your pricing. Keep up the good work :)

  7. I love reading and studying on goodnotes but the only downside is while reading is immersive thanks to full screen. Writing introduces an unnecessary number of button clicks to start writing, and distracts from the material

    If there was a Focus Mode, which was full screen and only allowed writing in one stroke type and erasing using the Apple Pencil. That would drastically improve my focus and ability to study.

  8. Ability to insert text snippets including timestamps in the page. I place a horizontal line across the page then insert a timestamp to separate new entries in a notebook.

  9. I would like the following features for pens and markers:
    (1)Please be able to draw a dotted line.
    (2)Make it possible to change the transparency of the marker color.
    (3)Make it possible to change the thickness of the line after drawing. (It's not a size change, it's a thickness change. When you scale down it, the line becomes too thin.)

  10. It would be great if we could mass select existing PNGs from our files or even entire folders of PNGs when creating element collections. Currently, we are only able to upload PNGs individually to element collections, which is very time-consuming, especially if you want to upload hundreds of stickers.

  11. So many times I lasso something and have accidentally included a few pixels of something that I don’t want to move. It would be nice to edit the boundaries of the lasso by adding/subtracting from it.

  12. When highlighting a word or sentence in an imported pdf, tap to enable a hidden note embedded within the highlight. The reason I say imported pdfs is because most files do not have space to take notes on the individual pages so embedding your note within the highlight provides space to take notes where the note applies while keeping the file looking clean.

    i.e. the definition of a word in the middle of a paragraph

  13. I’d love a feature that would allow you to easily select all highlighted (with the highlighter tool) material to copy and paste into another note. When studying, or when reading over documents or notes, I tend to be “old school” and highlight relevant material for further review or further studying. I would then love to be able to take all of my highlighted stuff and copy it into a condensed note for studying only what I’ve highlighted. Hopefully that made sense!

  14. I mostly use Goodnotes to annotate PDFs. But sometimes after making my annotations, I realize the the original PDF has a typo or requires some sort of alteration. In the current iteration of Goodnotes, I have to drag and drop the annotations from the old to new PDF. It would be amazing to be able to replace the underlying PDF with a few clicks. Please! 💔 So many people's workflows would improve drastically.

  15. Palm rejection does not work well for everyone, particularly for people with disabilities. Allow touch to be disabled completely, i.e. all interactions would be with the pencil

  20. Could you please add nepali language. I would like to type in nepali with my bluetooth keyboard and write in nepali language with my pencil in my iPAD.

    Currently in my Mac, I use romanized unicode nepali font (kalimati) which allows me to change my language input to NEPALI and let me type in nepali. I would like to do same in my iPAD with goodnotes.

    Thanking you in advance
