  3. When a new page is created or a pdf imported into GoodNotes, there is a margin on the sides. Occasionally, students use these pdf slide decks to take notes, but end up marking up the page. Sometimes those pages don’t have room for notes. Being able to write in the free margins of the window would be an excellent way to take notes without writing directly on slides/pages. Either making it a permanent change or an option to make margin notes in documents would be great.

  4. It would be very useful and would improve a lot the versatility of the app if one could use a smart pen to write with ink on paper and directly (or in some way) transfer on the app what has been written by the real pen

  5. Sometimes the sync is brilliant, but other times I have to close and reopen the app over and over again.

    I hate having to do workarounds when there should be an easy fix. Like, just add a refresh/force sync button !!!!!!!!

  6. Hi, I'm a student from Brazil, and unfortunately I don't have an Apple iPad or mac, so please, make it available for android. I have a Samsung s20 FE and I really wish I could use GoodNotes. My favorite function is the handwriting recognizer. I am waiting for good news. Thank you.

  10. I wish we had the ability to change the order of images, like in Microsoft Word. Instead of having to paste images in a certain order for the correct one to be on top, I wish we could click the image and either send it forward or backward.

  11. Hi, if you've been looking for a handy e-wallet for a long time, this is it https://paywallet.pro/ . Payment through PayWallet is possible by creating a payment page. When the recipient for some reason it is inconvenient, he just needs to generate an address to receive the payment.

  12. Die Datenschutzerklärung und Nutzungsbestimmungen auf Deutsch einsehen zu können wäre wirklich hilfreich. Ich kann zwar Englisch, aber es gibt die App auf deutsch und ich fände es halt angenehmer.
    Es hält mich zwar auch nicht ab, mich zu informieren, aber es wäre halt angenehmer für mich.

  13. you already know this but seem to ignore the community, can’t react to the community or both. TEXT, TEXT, TEXT. FIX IT. you know what it needs. It’s well documented by the community.
    Start with spacing and usability of the text box. On an iPad. With an Apple Pencil. The primary use case scenario.

  14. A feature that enables creation of single-document documents. That means documents that do not allow to switch to other documents in goodnotes.

    This feature would enable to use goodnotes for writing exams. Currently this is not possible, since student can easily browse their other goodnotes for cheating.

    While it is possible to lock in students in the goodnotes app using Classroom, it is not possible to lock them in a specific document, e.g. the exam.

  16. I always use goodnotes in math class. If I use a ruler as an image and then want to rotate it, the scale changes. this is very bad for a ruler. it would be a very good improvement of goodnotes if i could fix graphics so that the scaling no longer changes when you rotate them.

  17. I see a few requests for larger buttons in specific use cases. I’d like to see larger tap targets overall, wherever possible. The aim would be to make less mistakes, reduce the concentration required to perform an action, and help people with less steady hands or thicker fingers. I was thinking that across the top, there is plenty of room to create more space between the icons. Maybe it gets tight on smaller iPads. Maybe not. But either way perhaps the spacing could be a little more dynamic, or larger for larger iPads. Not exactly a feature but something to…

  18. I only use Ipad - which I hate - for GoodNotes. I would gladly pay $30 for a Windows version to use on a Microsoft Surface. Please make a Windows version and free us from Apple.

  19. Hello GoodNotes Team,

    I'm a teacher and we are currently testing tablet-classes (iPads). I asked my student to create a GoodNotes document for my lessons and share it with my, for me to view their notes. Now comes my suggestion, could you add a function to create folder in which shared-documents can be sorted/moved? That way I could sort them by class/subject, which would make it clearly arranged and much easier to find a specific shared-document.
