  1. It would be super helpful if there were a function to pin sticky notes slightly over the edge of the side of documents. I drew a picture for better understanding :)
    This feature could help make ones own notes better visible. Plus: sometimes the borders of documents are to narrow to take detailed notes without opening another document/page.

  3. Many engineering, computer and data science, maths, and other technical degrees do a great deal of programming. I love writing all my notes in Goodnotes, but all my code snippets are all over the place. Sometimes I do try incorporate code blocks in my notes, but the process of screenshotting, cropping, and pasting is a hassle. Having a feature (even one that can be downloaded) would be a massive convenience for a lot of users. Just a basic block that can be inserted into a note that displays a filename space. The tools tab can be loaded with, say, three…

  4. Please create a button, to transfer the slides of a lecture directly into a learning set. In the moment you have to create each learning set and each learning card by yourself.
    My idea would just convert every single slide into a learning card.
    Thank you!

  5. Hi.

    I am a user who is using Good Note with Galaxy Tab S7 Plus.

    1. Frame Drop
      Every time I turn the page, I keep seeing frame drop differently from other apps.
      (+ Zoom in, Zoom out)

    2. Laser pointer
      Unlike IOS, it is a pity that there is no laser pointer function.

    3. S pen
      Functionality (eraser) for the Spen button is not provided.
      (Samsung S Pen and LAMYS Pen)

    4. Dual Screen mode
      I hope the dual screen function that allows you to view multiple PDFs at once is supported.

    5. Voice file
      It's the same for IOS, but I'd like to…

  6. Is it possible to have a Keynote style magic move feature?
    I know Goodnotes is primarily a not taking app but I love the laser with tracking feature and use it for presentations all the time.
    The only thing that takes me back to keynotes is their magic move which is also brilliant, they have static laser which is nowhere near s as good.
    Miro also has an animation feature which I use with ability to write on screen but they don’t have this laser.
    If Goodnotes could have animation for presentation, that would be a solid feature.
    Thanks

  7. It would be nice to have the last worked page on the mac version show up on reboot. It is quite difficult to find and open the file we are working with each time.

  8. To align to existing text on the page with different amounts of indentation, it would be nice to have a vertical guide that appears when using the Zoom window that could be moved to the text you want to align to on the "real" page while also displaying in the Zoom window as well.

  11. This feature request suggests implementing in-place PDF editing functionality that allows users to edit PDF files directly from their file paths while preserving their personal file management preferences.

    With in-place PDF editing, users can seamlessly open PDFs in their original locations, make edits, and save modifications without creating duplicate copies. This streamlines the editing process and avoids disrupting established file management structures.

    This feature empowers users to store PDFs wherever they prefer, alongside related content, while retaining the file's original location. It respects users' organizational choices and eliminates the need for manual file rearrangement.

  12. I love using auto-advance in the zoom box for handwriting notes etc. However, it would be nice if the auto-advance recognized the specific page template being used (given that it is a page template provided by good notes). For example, when using the two-column page template, the auto advance should move you down to the next row in that column rather than have you continue writing across the page. It is a small adjustment that would make a world of a difference.

  14. As I study, sometimes i have to take notes on an assignment and my class notes are filled with pages that are only for those assignment and when i revise my notes to study I don't need those. I think it would be great to be able to choose pages and hide them, so they don't bother me once i have already used them but if i need them i can use them again.

  15. For example the option that recognizes what you are drawing for more complex forms like hexagons or hyperbolic function would probably help expecially for a more scientific use.

  17. Please add handwriting to text for Gaeilge. It’s such a good app but we can’t convert our notes to text as it just sees it as Chinese. All primary teachers in Ireland use Gaeilge on a daily basis. Please add this support.

  19. ヒラギノ角ゴシックなど、多くの有料フォントを取り入れてくれているが、
    選択できる太さの数が少ないという欠点もある。

    太さを増やすことで、よりよりノートテイキングに繋がるように思う。

  20. When working with numerous graphs, it is challenging to achieve curves that accurately capture the trends of my data or functions. It would be beneficial to have more freedom in drawing curves. Adding additional points beyond the standard three would take the app to the next level
