  1. It would be great if you can edit imported pdfs directly in the app. Ex. if professors have mistake on slides it would be nice to be able to erase it rather than just scribbling on it, which just makes it look messy and takes up space on page unnecessarily

  2. Why did you remove this in favor of zooming. I want to be able to change the Paragraph Style (Heading 1, Heading 2... Body, Caption) using the keyboard. This is an important feature for taking notes using the keyboard, while not constantly tapping around on screen.

  3. When I use the tape over photos in my notes, the photo always gets selected instead of the tape when I try to edit. Or when I'm using the tape as flash cards to cover information, I can never tap the tape properly because the photo is automatically selected first. I think when you choose to "lock photo", it should also mean that the photo isnt selected when u tap over it when people are trying to write or use tape or other tools over the photo.

  6. If you want to open two pages of the same document using presentation mode (but only one page is to be projected), the new procedure is very cumbersome. I would like to see the old function returned: you open the page overview and simply drag the desired page to the other side of the screen. This would save time in class.

  7. Please add a public API and developer resources so files can be automatically imported and organized into folders by class, week, and lecture. Better automation support would make Goodnotes much more powerful for students and developers building academic workflows.

  8. Please add optional UI customization for the iPad app, especially toolbar color and contrast controls. I would like a cleaner, less harsh toolbar and the ability to adjust visual emphasis, button size, and layout so the app feels more usable without changing the core Goodnotes experience.

  10. 사진을 올릴때 그냥 큰 이미지를 바로 올리는 것이 아닌, 모달(팝업) 형태로도 올릴 수 있게 해주세요.

    링크추가 기능을 사용할때 나오는 오브젝트 같은걸 클릭하면 등록한 이미지가 모달(팝업)의 형태로 나오도록 구현하고, 빈공간이나 x표시를 누르면 모달이 사라지도록 구현하면 좋을 것 같아요.

    그러면 많은 개념들을 정리할때 큰 이미지나 다양한 이미지를 하나의 페이지에 깔끔하게 정리할 수 있을 것 같아요.

    감사합니다. 좋은 하루 되세요.

  11. Currently, Goodnotes AI provides solution and tutoring support for math and engineering-related topics. I hope it can be expanded to include other subjects beyond math and engineering, so users can receive learning guidance and solution support in a wider range of subjects.

  12. When adjusting pen settings, it seems to occupy a large portion of the display. Also, I’m not sure why tools like fountain pen, ballpoint pen, and brush pen are separated from the pencil, since they all fall under pen types. It would be better to include the pencil within the pen category and simplify the UI—similar to Samsung Notes or other note-taking apps—by allowing users to select pen types within a single pen tool. Pen-related settings could be placed under an options icon to save space.

    Additionally, the animations for pen options (such as flatness, pressure sensitivity, and tip sharpness)…

  13. As an a level student, found tape feature very useful, but its very annoying when you right over the tape(I study by hiding key words in notes by using tape, and fill them by pen) and try to rub off the pen on the tape, there is no feature for that.

    There is a feature for removing highlighters or tapes, but not specifically pen on the tape, hope it changes, as it makes studies less efficient.

  14. Se sabe que si deseas escribir con alguna tipografía para que la letra sea bonita sale un recuadro para escribir dentro y es incómodo. Deberían tener en configuración " embellecimiento de escritura " de forma automática como ocurre en freenotes.

  15. the sticky notes are searchable while expanded...but the instant you collapse them the content can't be searched..Also image addition to the sticky notes should be feature. And the text in the added images(screenshots) should be searchable as well.

  16. Please have the option to have a "hide author" option as default when writing a sticky note. I really don't want to remove and toggle it every time I write on a sticky note. Thank you, Goodnotes!

  17. i think we should be able to re-order the quick tools when you press on the apple pencil grip. i hate having to scroll to find what i need. if we can customize the tool bar at the top we should be able to customize the quick tools!

    1. PDF Outline (Table of Contents) Usability

    Problem:
    In large PDFs, the outline panel truncates headings with “…” after a few words, making it difficult to quickly identify sections—especially in dense medical textbooks with similar headings.

    Suggestion:
    • Display full heading text in the outline panel (either via wrapping or expandable view)
    • Improve readability and navigation by allowing users to clearly distinguish between sections at a glance
    2. View Modes & Reading Themes

    Problem:
    Reading long PDFs for extended periods can be visually tiring, and navigation options are limited compared to dedicated PDF readers.

    Suggestion:
    Add flexible viewing and display…

  18. 아이패드 프로에서 가로화면으로 사용중인데 텍스트문서 파일을 생성하고 작성하면 저렇게 화면의 일부만 사용가능합니다. 양옆의 큰 여백이 계속 있어요. 이 여백을 없애고 텍스트문서를 꽉차게 보고싶어요.
    그리고 텍스트문서에도 일반 노트처럼 페이지를 나눠서 페이지 넘기기 기능이 생기면 좋겠어요.

  19. I wanted to have a pet that will be on your screen where you can interact with it and you can study with it. Also you can get snacks/change its appearances the more you study/write notes.
