  1. Bezier curves, shapes, fill with color, gradient, like you have in keynote

    Bezier Curves would be handy especially for engineering students, any shape like rectangle and circle would be great.

  3. Change filing system to be more like notability.

    I LOVE this app. The only thing that irks me is the filing system. Any chance we could get a layout option that would ditch the bookshelf setup and make it more like notability?

  7. Make the table of contents manageable in app

    I take my course notes using this app and love it. It would be nice though to be able to make the table of contents when making my notes so it would be quicker to parse my notes by topics

  10. Add support for multi-page templates

    I sometimes create PDFs that I then fill in with Goodnotes. Having support for importing PDFs with multiple pages as templates would be very useful.

  16. Pop up note! Please please add this feature, if good notes had this feature it would be the absolute perfect app!

    This is the only feature that makes Good Reader superior to Good Notes. The ability to have a pop up note allows you to write more things without cluttering up the page. If this was added there would be no need to use another app. Please please!

  18. Add build-in calculator

    Would love to have a built-in calculator when studying my notes. I can't open a calculator while in GoodNotes. I can't open two or more apps at the same time with Ipad. It will be of great help. Thanks.

  20. Erase with a Gesture while using the Pen Tool

    Gestures would erase lines without switching to the Eraser. Allow a variety of gestures: scratch back and forth, make a proof-reader's delete stroke etc. Ideal would be a way to define your own gestures.

    This is a feature at least one other (left nameless) drawing app has, and makes writing/drawing really fluid.
