  1. As a digital journaller/planner, I want to be able to insert photos and then crop them into a perfect shape eg square, circle etc. I haven’t found a way to do this in Goodnotes.

  2. At the moment, it is a two step process to return to the normal eraser after using the highlighter only erase.

    It would be much more simple if the pop-up message had the option to disable the highlighter only erase, rather than the current pop-up where there is only the options to go to the settings or ignore.

  3. I'd like to see GoodNotes available on older versions of Windows like Windows7. There are many homeschoolers who do not have the latest devises, etc. You would be able to reach more individuals. Regardless GoodNotes is a fantastic app, keep up the good work.

  4. I like to color code my notes. It would be so helpful to have the option to set a different color palette for every notebook without it affecting the rest, rather than having to rearrange my palette every time i want to take notes for another subject

  5. A very useful feature would be the addition of a scissors/cutout tool which can be used to manually cut out a PNG shape from an uploaded image.

  6. When inserting a photo, most of the time I just want it to span from left to right while keeping it’s aspect ratio / proportions. Currently, scaling a photo is scaling it from it’s center. This results in the necessity for several resizes and drags to match the page border left and right.

    I suggest an option to just hit a button in the context menu to scale the picture to a size where it‘s borders automatically align with the page borders!

    An alternative would be to add the option to scale a picture from it‘s corner, rather than it‘s…

  7. 1) while copying and pasting text from one document to other opened in same window ,in addition to providing dedicated copy paste option , add a drag and drop feature
    2) if we have to copy and paste multiple times then everytime it switches tool to text styling and it disturbs the work flow and affects productivity ....it would be better if tool selection in every tab can be fixed , so we dont have to swicth tool from text styling to any other for copying again

  8. I need the ability to change the “creation date” of a note.

    This, along with the ability to sort by creation date would allow a reasonable sort of my notes as I sometimes need to write notes referring to previous day.

    Without this, as manual sorting is not an option and wouldn’t make real sense for many people I guess, GoodNotes becomes unusable as it quickly turns into a mess.

  11. Hello Goodnotes team, apple introduced the interactive widgets with ios 17. I think it is fantastic, if you add the vocabulary function to the interactive widgets. apple showed it with the example of quizlett in the WWDC. If you add this you can learn easy your vocabularys on your Home screen by swiping between the apps.

  12. Goodnote provide 'delete page' now (green box in attached picture).
    It removes all note on the current page.

    I want expanded function.
    1. delete broader range - like delete whole document removal
    2. delete mode - choose between pen or highlighter

  13. How about making 'non remain pen'?
    Sometimes I solve problems by Goodnote.
    I solve the same problem over and over again for practice.
    I only mark the score, so I want to remove my solution.

    A pen that doesn't remain on the document will help.
    Like 'closing the file without save' pen

  17. Someone who's learning Japanese may face the same problem as me. Every time I need to write/insert the Furigana (pronunciation of Kanji) manually for the Kanji that I don't know how to read. It would be great if there's a button to do that automatically like MS Word and ios Pages.

  18. This has been suggested by many users, including myself. Please add the ability to change the folder colors—it can’t be that hard to add. Please, it will also add to the organization. I’m begging you.

  19. I use GoodNotes a lot - school, journals with photos, etc. It would be helpful if GoodNotes has its own cloud storage so that it doesn’t have to take up a lot of space on the device (or at least make cloud storage plans an option). I hope this will be considered as it will be extremely helpful to still have an easy access to all our GoodNotes files without having to worry about the storage of our devices (especially for those with low internal storage since even having a large iCloud storage is useless in this matter). Thank you!!

  20. I can edit lines as long as I don't lift the pen off it. which can only be edited at the end of the line I wish I could edit the line whenever my pen touches any area of it.
