  1. I'd love to pause the recording and resume without creating multiple recording files in my notebook. The functionality to edit recordings would be great as well.

  2. I wish you can develop a page that users can choose and design the theme that the users like, not based on their iOS appearance. Hope you allow the users to create their own themes.

  4. I think it would be very helpful to have the ability to give the files colour tags similar to the files app by apple. And then maybe a select option on the sidebar where you can select between your colour tags.

  5. I know it's been asked a few times but none recently (from what I have seen). I think it would be the best addition for people like me who write in cursive so that our handwriting is simplified (because I put so much pressure on the pen to write neatly). Procreate has this option and it's so helpful !

  6. Currently in Goodnotes 6 the only way that a generic curve can be approximated appears to be by a parabola, as a Maths major it would be helpful to be able to draw higher order curves (curves with more nodes) as the only way to do that currently appears to be by joining these basic curves which makes the overall curve appear to have kinks in it, adding an option to allow the user to control the number of nodes would be very helpful and appreciated.

  8. I love the new feature that involves internal links (linking to a seperate page within your document) however it is only accessible for a text box.

    I write most of my notes by hand with my Apple Pencil and would love to be able to use the lasso to select my handwritten notes and attach an internal link to other pages. The same could be said for elements/stickers

  9. 目前功能非常鸡肋,无法移动,只能修改名字,和实际学习时候需要用的大纲完全不一样,应该把自定义大纲做到自由移动并且可以形成父子层级的大纲
    要不然这个功能“自定义大纲”真是一点用处都没有,假如你学到第20面,发现第10面忘了做大纲,那第10面的大纲就只能放到第20面后面,而不是可以自由移动到第10面,这个功能很简单,但是这么久都没实现,非常影响学习

  12. It could be useful to drag a part of text from a page to another one without having to cut and paste every time. It would make the note-taking faster.

  13. In my opinion, it would be great to have the option of exporting folders with all subfolders and the associated PDFs together. Currently it is very tedious to export folders of completed projects from Goodnotes. In my case, the projects don't get any smaller and so it takes longer and longer to prepare all the files for the backup. I think this function would be very useful.

  14. My handwriting is so messy that I write with a ruler in daily life. I tried it with the ruler on the screen, and it’s not possible.
    The words are ‘sucked’ like a magnet to the ruler and automatically draws a line.

    It would be soooooo nice to be able to have the ruler not be ‘magnetic’ and write on it.

    I can’t read my own handwriting without ruler and it looks very very stupid when I’m holding a real life ruler against my ipad screen in meetings…

  16. I want to use my note as a one session study. I mean I have mathematical equations to solve but I don’t want to copy paste them to another page or deleting my original solutions. So I want to study mode as when I press to that mode I can do whatever I want then when my studying session is over it can reverse everything I do.

  17. Ability to adjust opacity of objects. Stickers, photos, etc.
    There are many reasons I switched to Zinnia but this is the biggest selling point. It’s so basic I can’t wrap my head around why it’s not in GoodNotes.

  18. Please - urgently - change the link on the page! With more than 1000 pages, it is necessary to enter the page number, as scrolling is too cumbersome. 1001 thanks.

    Bitte - dringend - Link auf Seite ändern ! Bei über 1000 Seiten ist die Eingabe der Seitennummer notwendig, da scrollen zu umständlich ist. 1001 Dank.

  19. Currently, in the GoodNotes app, annotations made in other note-taking apps like Apple's native Notes app are embedded into the PDF upon import, making them uneditable within the app. I would greatly appreciate it if you could make it possible to recognize and edit annotations within PDFs.
