  3. Using OpenAI's Whisper model which is open sourced, Goodnotes can enhance the audio recordings done on the iPad and also feed them through OpenAI's Whisper model for on-device audio transcriptions.

    This will maintain user privacy and provide unlimited transcriptions at the expense of battery life but it would be well worth it to click transcribe and have a textview in a window to the right that is synced to the time. Notability has done this and it looks fantastic.

  4. Ability to read/speak pdfs, notes, etc. similar to other text-to-speech apps (with non-robotic voices). As a college student that takes in auditory information better than reading myself it would be very handy to be able to have papers i upload into goodnotes be read.

  5. On travaille beaucoup avec des formes géométriques, et avoir par exemple le centre du cercle, carrée, etc.., des flèches ou angles, serait bien.

    Les dossiers ne peuvent pas être ranger comme on le souhaite, c’est dommage.

  6. Hi, I really enjoy Goodnotes, nut the only issue I have is that I bought premium, but my language (Swedish) isn´t supported which makes me really sad. When are you adding more languages?

  7. One of the major issues in relation to using a digital file, compared to a traditional paper file is that in a paper file you can attach "post-its" to relevant pages which you can then refer to when you are using that file. This is an essential tool for lawyers, for example. So that, if you are referring to a bundle of files, you can have them in front of you where you can see the protruding tabs and refer to them immediately. The visualisation of the tabs – allows for easy access to the relevant page.

  8. I use Goodnotes 6 for medical school as my only notes taking application. often I will write up notes which I come back to add to it but don't have space. It would be nice if I could add handwritten links to other places within the document or "sticky notes" that I could stick on the sides of the documents (Black/blank space of the page). Save me spending ages having to rearrange everything. Thank you

  11. Moving the hand outside the ipad to write on the right edges of the paper is not ergonomic. It's not always you have the option for a table to rest your hand, like in lecture halls

  13. I would like to have more than just three slots for pen thickness. This suggestion is even more relevant after releasing dotted a dashed line feature.

  14. most importantly, it should be possible to export the flashcards to a pdf for two reasons:
    1. So it is possible to search for certain words (so you can see if you already have that flashcard)
    2. So it is possible to print the flashcards!

  15. I use Samsung S23 ultra and there is no goodnote available on such small device. When do you plan to launch it for smartphone with pen? I have it on my Samsung tablet and desktop win app and I m very confused that I cannot use goodnote on my smartphone too.

  16. Could Goodnotes possibly incorporate the ability to add chart interactions? For example, for individuals who keep extensive logs or check lists, having the ability to select a check mark or fill in an incremental bar that could impact a graph, table, or value would allow for more seamless tracking abilities.

  17. Im not sure why it shows the recent fonts if you have to go look for them manually anyway but it would be nice to just be able to tap on the listed recent fonts and have them be applied from there.

  18. It’s so difficult to navigate that text box. I wish goodnotes automatically changed your writing to text without the text box! I can’t emphasize this enough on how difficult it can be to wanting to use the scribble feature but having to navigate the little box and wanting to write multiple paragraphs but stuck with having to adjust it multiple times.

  19. It should be possible with one click from anywhere in the document view to get back to currently open tabs. Currently the only way to do this is to open another notebook via one direction or another. Why not have an option to “close” the document view and bring up the open notebooks?

  20. I believe implementing a feature where the zoom window can be pinned to a specific position would be a significant enhancement. This would serve as a game-changer, allowing users to lock the zoom window to specific questions or images they wish to work on. This feature could greatly enhance user experience, especially in scenarios where space is limited, enabling more flexibility in annotating and addressing specific elements within the document. I hope you consider this valuable suggestion for future updates.
