  1. I would like to be able to move the divider between the colors and tools to the left to allow a greater selection of colors to be available. I remember this was a thing before in Goodnotes, where the ruler and laser pointer were behind the divider and I could access a greater number of colors and/or line thickness.

    As a user who rarely uses anything past the lasso tool and sometimes the image insert but uses several colors in my notes it would very useful!

  2. Laser movement shall be shared to all participants in the collaboration mode.

    Collaboration mode is very useful when multiple people work on the same document at the same time, e.g. remote teaching, doing home work together etc.

    Participants can write simultaneously and this is near real time visible to all.

    Please extend this functionality for laser pointer. It is very useful when explaining home work or what ever is the topic.

  3. Wolfram alpha integration
    So you could reference all of what wolfram alpha can do as well as do conversions, reference info, as well as improving the math functionality with quick ability to do conversions and references that wolfram offers. So you could select a math expression for example or an ip address, or unit of measurement and be able to solve, convert, plot, subnet, and reference data. With the ability to search wolfram or have GoodNotes just be able to recognize data from notes and be able to do math and solve conversions and such.

  4. Cycle through 3 (or more) tools/brush with double tap Apple Pencil.

    If you double tap, it will cycle through the last three tools (or more depending on setting choice)
    So for example:
    1. Start from from 'PEN' write something.
    2. Double tap Apple pencil and it will go to 'HIGHLIGHTER', and highlight a word.
    2. Double tap Apple pencil and it will go to 'SHAPE TOOL' and under line some text and draw a box.
    3. Double tap Apple pencil and it's back to 'PEN' and write something.

    This will prevent needing to move the pen up to the tool…

  7. When I want to listen to a specific part on my document, instead of skipping through the recording by myself until I find it. I could just click on the text I’ve written while I recorded that part, and Goodnotes would automatically skip to the part and start playing the recording.
    I hope that makes sense, it’s just like notability. I know a lot of people who would switch to Goodnotes if that feature is available.

  9. I often download slides from lectures and it would be great if I could be able to zoom out and not have the slides fill the whole screen when I am looking through it. I'm able to do this with documents made in the app, but not when downloaded and it would just be nice to not have it fill the whole screen, to get a better overview.

  10. For people with a high visual impairment the max. zoom level is to low.
    The possibility to zoom in without a limit, would be a big step towards to accessibility.

    All in all the work with goodnotes helps a lot in daily life for people with visual impairment. This would be another big step, making it easier.

  13. Every time i come to scroll my notebooks on my iphone, i end up writing on my notes instead. I wish the experience of browsing my notes on my iphone were more user friendly.

  14. Notes meet Calendar

    I love the feature in the Agenda app where you can assign a note to a particular upcoming meeting. would be very nice if i could not only have every page of my notes dated and timed but also if I could assign one or more pages to a meeting in my calendar. This would require seamless integration with calendar apps like exchange or fantastical or gmail, but if done right would be epic.

    picture this scenario:

    I work in a corporate job and I am in a strategy meeting with the CEO who gives me certain…

  16. It would be awesome if Good Notes integrated this feature. It would be so much easier if the paper would turn black and the ink white when the dark mode of the iPad is on. Studying at night will be so much easier! (Of course, we must consider that prints will not be printed black, but I think this will not be as complex as in many other apps. This future works with no problems in them.)

  17. The release of Goodnotes 6 within the previous year, was great for the Apple ecosystem, but recently I have moved to Samsung and I have noticed just how bad Goodnotes 6 is on Samsung Tablets (I have the Tab S9 series).

    A progress web app can never be for a note-taking app, native apps are essential for note-taking as performance with the Goodnotes 6 web app is bad.

    The web app crashes often, the pen is laggy and most of the time my handwriting ends up looking bad comparing it with native apps like Samsung Notes, jNotes, Squid, and others.

  18. Hello there! Since the new goodnotes update is out and you must have an account (for ma my google account), Is something planned like synced notes to that specific account across multiple platforms? For example, I use my iPad to take notes and would like to edit them sometimes on my PC without syncing to iCloud and sharing via links... Its bulky, non effective.
    Thank you in advance for your answer!

  19. Goodnotes already has a website integration. I hope it can create an external embed link that works on 3rd party apps like websites, notion, and anything else simply as a view. This used to work with the website link, but since last year, it has stopped working.

  20. It would be nice to edit drawn lines (line weight, pen type, line type) in addition to color.

    I often have to delete a line and redraw it if I need a more bold line.
