  1. Probably after the announcement of Goodnotes 6, it is no longer possible to change the page size in Goodnotes 5. This is very inconvenient and needs to be fixed.

  2. I’ve been using Goodnotes for two years now for school and love the app, but there is no way I’m going to pay for an app. I’m gone already on just update it.

  3. nella modalità scrittura con tastiera, bisogna aggiungere la possibilità di aggiungere anche immagini, creando dei margini automatici che si spostano, e si modellano col testo circostante: bisogna renderla simile ad altre app competitor specializzate solo nella scrittura con tastiera come pages o word. al momento infatti goodnotes dal punto di vista della scrittura a mano libera/ con apple pencil a mio avviso è l'app migliore ma dal punto di vista della scrittura con tastiera c'è ancora strada da fare (al momento ci sono app dedicate: pages, word, ...) che fanno questo lavoro meglio.....

  5. In Goodnotes 6 Presentation Mode seems to not work properly. When choosing a new document in the file-explorer, the audience also can see my files and folders. Was not so in GN5 - the last document was locked and I could choose a new one without showing everything to the audience.

  8. On GN6 you moved the zoom icon so far to the right that I can‘t access it right away on my iPad Pro 10,5. In portrait view the icon disappears behind the line width option. That’s super annoying for the work flow

  9. GoodNotes 6 has an annoying quirk: I'll be writing along and suddenly a word will vanish as I write it. IT's not any one word, nor any combination of strokes in particular. I would call it intermittent, but it happens with aggravating regularity. It's only begun since upgrading to 6; I'm writing the same way I did in GoodNotes 5 and it never did this. Am I alone in experiencing this issue?

  11. The new GoodNotes 6 has an annoying habit of erasing random words as I write them. I'd love to send this to your support page, but it seems pretty one-way. There's no one word that erases, no set pattern that causes it. I didn't have this problem with the identical useage in GoodNotes 5.

  12. That when you scan a document, you can focus the document by clicking on it, like in the camera app for example.

  16. I noticed that the device gets really hot when I use Goodnots. I let a diagnositcs tool run and confirmed it.

    The device does not heat up when i use other Apps or watch videos and the brightness is around 30%.

    I would appreciate if this could be fixed.

  17. For handwritten notes, there's nothing better. But at the moment, the app is geared too heavily towards the iPad, rather than cross-platform.

    I picked up my phone to type a quite to-do list this morning, (to keep everything in one place, rather than using the Apple Notes app), and the text was tiny. Creating a bulleted list was more difficult than it should've been. There was no option to properly format a bullet point list/add indents. And no checklist feature, to add tickable to-dos when you're using a keyboard (rather than an Apple pencil).

    Cross-compatibility for this kind of thing…

  18. My iPad has more storage than my iPhone.
    Sometimes I need to have my flashcards on my iPhone, but not the whole library.
    For this reason, I am not able to have iPhone app dowloaded.

    So I have to carry my iPad all the time.
