  3. Please consider a feature to add URL links to images or elements on notes.

    A link feature is a very good feature for digital notebooks.
    Currently GoodNotes 5 supports link feature only inline text links.

    When we want to link a URL to an image to create a button to jump to a website, paste an image, add an invisible text (whitespaces) onto it. and create a link on it.
    It makes a lot of trouble since invisible text is tough to handle.

    It will be very nice if attaching links directly onto images or elements on page.

    Thanks for…

  5. I take a picture of a bathroom and use goodnotes to draw simulations of furniture and tiles etc. on top of the image i.e. the straight lines on the image does not align with the straight lines on the grid paper (due to optics, angles, wide-angles, etc.)

    Quite often, it is impossible to draw the correct straight line exactly from the correct points on the image e.g. floor corner to ceiling corner, because Goodnotes insist on snapping the line to the underlying grid.

    I wish I could completely disable all snap-to-grid functionality.

    thanks for a great app!

  6. Hi! So it would be really nice if there was a sign in/log ing option. This way, every user could sign in a device and have all the documents there without the need of exporting the data. This doesn't mean to delete the sync option with other apps like Google Drive or OneNote, but it would be nice. For example, if you buy a new iPad, you wouldn't have to export de data from the GoodNotes app from your old iPad to the new one, you should only sign in in your new iPad and all your documents would be…

  9. Recommend adding a multi-touch free rotation function with zoom capabilities to facilitate page customization and enhance user experience, such as filling out forms with horizontal and vertical fields. Example of this feature can be observed in Zinnia application for iOS and iPadOS.

  13. Have the option to zoom in the collections to verify the stickers instead of posting each one to find the one that I'm looking. It would be great if can be in the Mac app and iPad app.

  15. I work as a civil engineer in a paperless office. I have to deal with a lot of construction plans and for me it is important to be able to take measurements from those plans or draw in exact measurements. So I would be very pleased if a ruler, which can be set to a certain scale (e.g. 1:50) could be added to GoodNotes. Currently I have to resort to a pdf-software on my PC, which disrupts the workflow.

  17. When writing while holding the iPad in portrait or landscape mode I often rest my land on the screen to leverage. As approachthe second vertical half of the page I run out of room and have to comfort my hand which causes a great deal of strain. Attempting to scroll further beyond the page boundary rubberbands, with no effect. Is like to be able to over-scrolljust under half a page so that i can fill the sheet similar to how scribble Let's me over-scroll in this basic textarea field on you support form.

    Thanks.

  19. Would like to be able to add a template for larger paper

    At present, the largest paper template is a tabloid, but due to the nature of the work, I am used to thinking and recording on larger paper. In other recording apps, there are 300 times the size, such as "Unlimited Draft". Although I don't need such a large paper, I still hope There are larger paper templates, such as large newspaper templates or modules that are several times or even ten times larger than the current tabloid. Thanks.

  20. I type or dictate my notes, so they are typed on my mac.
    It would be nice to be able to do an outline format for my notes.

    this is a pain in goodnotes and since I don't just use it as a planner but a notetaking app it is something that is critical.

    I've actually started checking out other apps for class and bsns notes.
