  1. I would like to suggest integrating GitHub accounts with GoodNotes to enable synchronization between a specific repository and a designated GoodNotes directory (or a virtual directory mimicking the repository). This feature would use the GitHub API to periodically push and pull data, allowing for backup creation and facilitating tracking edits and collaboration. Considering its intended use in university settings, if the API costs become a concern, offering this functionality as part of the GitHub Student Developer Pack could be an option. I appreciate your consideration of this suggestion. Thanks.

  2. Goodnotes6 now allows users to link documents, although this process can be time-consuming when there are numerous pages. It would be more efficient if links could be automatically connected when screenshots are taken. Please consider this suggestion.

  3. This feature is used by Notability app. I’ve seen that some of people already mentioned this idea, but they had a really small amount of votes. This tool allows to cover a part of text or a note in order to test yourself. This feature is similar to the “cloze” flashcard in Anki and I think that it would be a perfect solution for students that like to learn from their notes

  4. It would be great if there was a feature so that you could cut a page to the content. This would allow you to cut out unnecessary lines at the end of a page and improve the layout of the notebook.

  5. my company is using goodnotes, we need to have an option to buy the app directly from appstore rather than creating the purchase after download (in app purchase).
    i mean a paid package that i can pay already through the app store.
    is is possible?

  6. I’d like the option to, when creating a notebook, be able to have it generate a certain (customizable) number of pages ahead of time so I don’t have to add them one at a time later

  7. When I download .pdf files such as study guides for my classes, I love to highlight each question and add a comment to it which allows me to use active recall and organize the answers directly to the comments, this is awesome!

    What would compliment this is allowing whatever is highlighted with an embedded comment, to also have an option to view both the highlighted part and it’s comments in it’s own page! For example, I would love to share my comments that I have made for the questions on my study guide, and have what I’ve typed already attached…

  9. It’s inconvenient to exit document to open user guide, search and go back to open document to practice. When it doesn’t work, I have to repeat steps, closing and searching.

    Currently Split View only opens other apps.

  10. When on a certain document and you hit the back arrow, it should open up to that folder and not the recent folder you were in.

  11. I would like to be able to pin notes/docs to the tabs bar, for quicker and easier access to things that are used daily or multiple times in a day (e.g. a digital planner)

    Similar to text threads were are able to pin to the top of our chats for conversations most important to us.

    I understand there is a bookmark option, but it is not the same. :/

  12. All very nice, but the keyboard function should be improved to beat the competitiveness that this app certainly has. First of all, many layout customization functions should be added, the possibility of adding and creating tables, the possibility of dividing the writing page into two columns when desired without distorting the rest of the page which must remain in one column, the possibility of having greater customization. And finally, another thing to take into consideration are the gestures that should be made in the presence of output such as a mouse or anything specific. I'm sorry if your understanding of…

  13. Goodnotes and Notability should join forces and combine all their good factors and ideas to create a super note taking app. You could call it
    'Supernote'. All other name ideas can be mentioned in comments.
    Thank you!

  14. It would be great to have an option to decide if the automatically create form is filled with full colours (just like the outline) or pastel colours (like it is now)

  15. Study sets are great and i love this feature very much but i think some additional improvements will make it extremely useful and great.
    For example how much I remember the cards, if there is multiple option as in Anki such as easy, good, hard & again rather than know it or not will improve smart learn and add filter cards queue, some cards i forget it at all while others i just forget a little bit of it so the only two option make them equal.

    Although if there is an option for backward of cards as I accidentally…

  20. When you open the index card overview, the font is usually far too small to really read what is written on the cards. You should be able to change the size of the cards by swiping or dragging them larger and smaller. Then you can read the cards and don't have to search for a long time.
