  1. Add a way for a customer to contact you when they have an issue that is not addressed anywhere, not even using your Bot. I need to change the main email on my account & that does not seem to be addressed ANYWHERE! A way to ask questions would be nice.

  2. I would like to be able to duplicate my files. They have links within the document. The problem is that the copied file links keep opening in the old file and do not link within the new document. This makes no sense to me. How do I fix this?

  3. This would be a great thing for both, people who just use a trackpad/mouse bc they like it but also for people with disabilities.
    Currently, these people can’t use most of the great features GN6 offers, e.g. Lasso, Tape, Geometry, Pen, Eraser, … Or in other words: everything that requires drag&drop.
    This would be also very useful for IOS18 where Apple just drops an eye control feature.
    Please make this great app (more) accessible for everyone!

  4. I'm a big user of goodnotes, I've been taking notes with him since 4 years ago, it's a very good software to use, as you know, apple recently released ipad air 6 (13inch), I bought him and upgraded goodnotes 6 on this new ipad.
    I realized that from my previous device using goodnotes 5 there was no heating condition.
    But after about 20 minutes of writing on top of the new ipad, my ipad has been heating up really bad.
    I had to stop and let the ipad cool down a bit before I could continue writing. I hope the…

  5. Often, files in a folder are named after a similar pattern. It would be nice to have this as a optional feature for each folder. It should be rather easy to implement.

  6. Currently you are unable to use scribble to erase in the zoom window. I love the scribble feature and I’ve become very reliant on it that I can’t use the feature of the zoom window. I would love to use it and be able to see my full page but it is annoying having to undo or use the eraser

  8. 색깔 플레이트에 스포이드 기능이 있었으면 좋겠어요. 색깔을 똑같은 것으로 맞춰야 할때가 많은데 스포이드 기능이 없어서 인지 통일감없이 색을 맞추기가 너무 힘들어요.

  9. Please improve the text boxes. I would like to be able to do superscript and subscript numbers. Every user that works in science needs this sooner or later. It would be a simple but very necessary improvement.

    example: H2O (water)

    1. il righello dovrebbe essere uno scalimetro, mettere un pulsante di taratura in modo da adattarlo ad una misura nota del disegno, fissando lo "0". la scala impostata rimane impostata anche modificando lo zoom, così come la posizione dello "0"
    2. avere la possibilità di selezionare e specchiare
    3. migliorare la gestione del riempimento, poter cambiare colore
    4. gestione delle immagini, trasparenza, colori

  10. Dear GoodNotes Team, I am writing to express my appreciation for the exceptional work you’ve done with the GoodNotes app, which has significantly enhanced my note-taking experience.
    I would like to suggest an update that I believe many users, including myself, would find incredibly beneficial. It would be wonderful if the pen library could be expanded to include a wider variety of writing and drawing tools. This enhancement would not only improve the versatility of the app but also cater to the diverse preferences and styles of your user base.
    Thank you for considering this suggestion. I am looking forward…

  11. With the new squeeze function on Apple Pencil Pro, and how it brings up the new menu (Palette), it would be super cool to have this menu show up if you hold an older Apple Pencil down for a couple seconds. (Element note has this feature as well) but it would be super awesome to have for faster tool switching for people that aren’t on the newest iPads.

    TLDR bring the new squeeze menu to the rest of the pencils by holding down on the screen without moving your pen.

  12. When sharing notes, please add a function to disable writing except by the owner who created the note. I would like a function to allow only viewing by non-owners.

  13. Having the capability to convert spoken words into written text, also known as voice to text transcription, is an invaluable tool that has the potential to revolutionize the way you capture and retain information. Imagine being able to effortlessly transcribe a lecture word by word, facilitating an efficient process for transforming spoken content into written form. Furthermore, this feature opens up the possibility of seamlessly integrating the transcription process with note-taking techniques such as the popular Cornell notes method. By merging these two powerful tools, you enhance your learning experience by creating a comprehensive and organized repository of information gleaned…

  14. When creating a flashcard, both question and answer pages are displayed. To edit any of them, we need to tap on the edit button.
    Why not let the users directly edit them (like when notes are created) without clicking on edit button and then on the done button?

  16. A button to configure a specific card to be reviewed with both the question first, or the answer, helping us to study cards in both directions, as already used in some flash card apps.

    Would also be ideal to be able to use the tape on the flash card questions, if tape is implemented.

  18. I love using GoodNotes for taking notes in school and I think it would be a good feature to add the possibility of scanning a formula using the AI from PhotoMath to solve a equation and give the answer.

  19. Dear team,

    I would like to suggest an enhancement to your tool’s functionality that I believe would significantly enrich the user experience. Would it be possible to implement a feature that allows users to highlight or select a specific text and, with a simple click, set it as the title of a summary? Additionally, it would be extremely helpful if, upon performing this action, the user could view a list of titles already created for summaries, thus avoiding duplications.

    Another valuable feature would be the ability to standardize the text of the summaries, including options to change the text to…
