  1. In GoodNotes 5, when I open more than three larger pdf files in tabs, GN 5 can‘t remember the size of the fourth pdf file.

    On the attached video, you see a comparison of GoodNotes 4 and GoodNotes 5

  3. Guys - the ability to snooze/set a reminder for a note would be amazing. When i'm using notes to generate ideas etc i often want to come back to them but you get busy and forget. A prompt would be invaluable (similar to 'nudges' in gmail) thanks

  6. It would be fantastic to be able to save preferred pen weight and colour combinations, say in the form of a ‘pencil case’ or similar, so that the same or preferred combinations can be easily reverted to, across files.

  8. I've tried to print out my lecture but I use too thick pen head, to make it smaller I have to write all of my lectures again with a smaller head. I want to be able to change the pen weight after I wrote sth.

  9. First, I love Goodnotes!
    Would it be possible to make a larger Return Button. I'm often taking bullet type notes, so I use the Return often, and when going quickly, it takes a moment to look and make sure I hit the button to create the next bullet, as it's quite small. I know this is a minor issue but it would speed things up for me a lot.
    Thank you very much.
    Cheers,
    Anthony

  10. Something that Notability has and Goodnotes doesn’t: when selecting a text the option of changing not only color but thickness.

  11. I would love this app even more if there are more brush styles and color feature because it's difficult to enter code # or multiple choosing color without entering code. And also more themes , voice recording, and catagories

  13. 1.In the Zoom Window, eraser, frequently used color, backward, etc. have disappeared. It is annoying because the move is long.

    2.After all, it does not seem to support two page views at a time.

    3.No highlighter in Drawing Shapes. Drawing shape with Highlighters are only linear ...
    At Goodnote 4, i can draw circle, triangle, etc with highlighter.

    4.There is still no changing the template at once ....
    When I write i use grid and i print i with only white page.
    I have to change it every single page.

    5.On the preview page, version 4 shows the current page…

  14. The magnified writing window in GoodNotes 4 had a small menu bar, where one could change the pen colour, select the eraser and jump back and forth between the last changes. It greatly helped the writing flow, because one didn't need to go to the top of the screen.
    Please bring that back!

  15. There is a problem with the shape tool, very often I have to repeat the action, because of missing couloring of the area I marked. It would be very nice, if it would be possible to coulor an area after marking it with the pencil.

  17. I often find that I need to resize a shape I have already drawn and when I erase a portion of the shape and redraw it, the app treats the change as a new shape instead of as an update to an existing shape which results in lines not matching up between the unerased portin of the shape and the new portion. I have attached a pdf that shows the problem.

  19. My goodnotes documents are extremely large because inserted photos. I would like to select photo from library and the choose size of file... like when I send an email.

    Also when I take photo to directly insert into a Goodnotes.. allow me to be able to control file size.

    Also... GoodNotes should allow me to see size of my file.

  20. Enable a way to create a shortcut on the homescreen on your device. So instead of having to open goodnotes and then your notebook, just be able to open your notebook directly from the homescreen of the device.
