  2. I use a notebook for music for church band on Sundays. I upload a set of sheet music, and order the music for the Sunday we are going to play it. I would like to group the pages of each song together so when I move one page it moves the entire group of pages for that song at one time. I like to reorganize my pages so the set of songs for each Sunday are in order for that week.

  3. I like using the study sets, but I’d like to be able to insert images and text into one card. It’d make it way easier for me to format my questions.

  4. When I connect my ipad to an external display using stage manager, a bug appears. In this situation I have firstly the goodnotes application open and displayed on my ipad and secondly any document or application open and displayed on the external screen. So when I open a new goodnotes document on my ipad or change document via the taskbar, this automatically zooms in on the external screen, placing the application or home screen out of frame on the external screen. This bug is very annoying because it appears every time I open or change a document on goodnotes and…

  5. It can only zoom up but cannot zoom down which is very inconvenient when browsing!

    Every update is about AI but do users really need it?

    Please improve the basic function!

    Almost every website and similar software have unlimited zoom up and zoom down!

  7. I usually work on PDF files and using highlight tool to highlight important parts or take notes with pen tool. I can do this with GoodNotes. What I can not do save my work (highlights, notes or other stuff) to my original imported document. I have to export if I want but I think is not a good way, Some other apps can do this, when you work on a document it asks you to reflect work to original document and reflects if you approve.

  10. In the Settings menu (iPad, iOs 17), please enable same support for Goodnotes, as there is for Notes - see attached picture. This goes especially for password protection, customisation of corner gestures, accessing Goodnotes from locked screen, and support for tags.

  11. Support Icelandic as recognition language so you can convert handwriting to text and write in Icelandic. It would also be great to be able to check the spelling when writing in Icelandic.

  12. Hi! I would LOVE to create my own outlines which I can drop onto a page & create a standard way to write up meetings / to-do / projects etc. Here is how I see the idea:

    • I create a standard meeting outline (for example area's for Attendees, Agenda, Action Items etc).
    • I tap on an icon and add the outline to an existing page.
    • The outline is "locked" by default. So I can erase writing without changing the outline. Another way to think about this - layers in Photoshop.

  14. It would be great if we can have FaceID support for this. Not only should it be an option for individual notebooks, folders, and quick notes, but to have the ability for opening the app itself - while also including a time feature (locking every time you exit or after 5 minutes of not using it). With the ability to choose from a combination - for instance I want to have FaceID to open the app and upon entry I want certain notebooks/folders locked for an extra layer of security.

  16. There are TONS of default fonts I will NEVER use but I have also downloaded a lot from iFont. However, I constantly have to weed through all the system fonts to get to the ones I use regularly to see which font looks best for a particular section of text.

  17. Just a simple Addition to Goodnotes. The ability to see all open Documets and Files from the Homescreen, instead of having to open a file. This could be a separate folder under the marketplace for example which expands to show all the currently open notes

  18. As a university student who uses goodnotes for every class, I find myself frustrated at the fact that there is no subscript or superscript shortcut. Biology, chemistry, and math are all subjects that very often use these features. As a result, I often draw the subscript/superscript in after typing my note, however this tends to be very tedious and messy when there is a lot of them. It would be tremendously effective if Goodnotes had a shortcut much like Google Docs does, to insert subscripts and superscripts.

  20. Ich würde gerne die Lernsets auch anders herum lernen: Antwort wird angezeigt und man muss die Frage nennen. Dies wäre für Vokabeln sehr hilfreich, damit man in beide Richtungen übersetzen kann
