  1. I would like to if the handwriting into text box which automatically changes the handwriting would be possible all the time (i dont have apple pencil so no scribble). You could add it to the setting so the writer could choose if they want it automatically changed or not. Also maybe if i could use the text boxes with zoom because it is easier to write like that. It changes my handwriting into the text box while using zoom feature but the words dont show up and they disappear.

  2. Allow us to define Bookmark groups: folders/filters which hold pages bookmarked with certain labels.

    I press the bookmark button on a page, this marks the page into an "unsorted" or "default" bookmark folder. When I go to look at my bookmarks for this document, I can then sort them into "Reference", "Revisit", "Inspiring", ... and other folders to better sort my dozens of bookmarks for long documents.

    Bonus points if I can color code the bookmarks too!

  3. I travel a lot with work so the week before I take my trip I plan everything out in my GoodNotes app. I would love to be able to add a gif, emoji or image to my planner and be able to click it and add a link to image. so if I need to get to my hotel from the airport I can click the copy of my check in confirmation I have saved as an image to my planner page and my link for the driving directions I copied from google loads up my map. Would also love…

  4. When at uni I need as much screen real estate as possible. So the tab at the top with all the different pen options takes away too much of the screen space. It would be great if we could enter a full screen mode and be able to write while in the corner there is an option if need to bring back the toolbar.

  7. I am one of the lucky people who is able to use Goodnotes 4 to experience the best note taking pens in the App store. ✍️

    I constantly check for Goodnotes 5 updates to see if the pen experience has improved.

    The biggest differences can be seen when writing the letter "S". 🖋️ The mechanism used in Goodnotes 5 almost forces the letter to fix itself 👷 while as in Goodnotes 4 its thicker while also making sure it doesn't force your handwriting a certain way.

    Goodnotes 4 feels so natural and without manipulation while preserving the nice thickness of…

  8. First of all, thaks for making Goodnotes applicantion for Window and Androd.

    《And i'm not quiet good at English so i ask for your understanding. :( 》

    But there is some promblems in Andorid applicantion.

    First, i don't know why but GoodNotes sometimes can't distinguish S-pen between hand gesture. so sometimes i can't scroll the page

    Secound, might be my problem(using S7FE), app is running slowly. It takes too much time to bringing in document.

    I hope these things are fixed fast so i use GoodNote for mainly :D

    See you in Next Feedback or New version!!!

  9. I do not have the slightest idea how to delete comments out of the Windows beta. I click on the comment I made and it does not have a menu to delete the comment. I cannot delete the comment as well with the eraser tool. Right-clicking also does not work on the comment bubble to delete it. Please advise or add fix or workaround.

    1. Es fehlt ein button mit dem man alle geöffneten Seiten auf einmal schliessen kann.
    2. Bilder sollten durch ziehen einfacher auf die selbe Grösse des schon eingefügten Bildes gebracht werden können. (Auf dieselbe Grösse snapen)

  10. Larger Thumbnails. One of the great things about keeping notes in a paper notebook is that you can quickly skim through previous notes. You flip through pages very quickly finding what you're looking for. Thumbnail view is the best way to do this with digital note taking. Please give the option to increase the size of the thumbnail to make this easier.

  11. One of my main uses for good notes is thinking. I like to draw or write ideas to get to conclusions quicker. The problem is that those pages doesn't have any use after I reached to the conclusion.

    I'd like to have a special Notebook for fleet notes that deletes pages that are inactive after certain amount of time. I truly enjoy writing in good notes more than any other writing app in iPad but I end up with big notebooks of useless information.

    With this auto-cleaned fleet notes notebook I would have always a go-to notebook that I can…

  12. I am left-handed and it is uncomfortable to begin writing at the edge of the page because the page edge is at the edge of the screen. The current workaround I have is inserting a pdf which allows this to some extent. I would like to be able to zoom out further so I can place the edge of the page in the middle of my iPad screen. This would allow my hand to rest on the flat surface of the iPad.

  14. I suggest you to absolutely add more settings for the new feature of typing mode, which allows users to write with pen and keyboard in the same page and in a better way.
    But I think you should allow users to change font, space between lines, change font dimension, ecc., just like is already possible in text box!.

    Please do it for us, I think it will be great making your app more and more complete and competitive, without doubt.

  15. When the page is magnified.If it is shown the percentage of the magnification done.As it is shown in Onenote.I think it could be of help to many while writing at a particular magnification for better fit and to make proper idea about the size of the pen to be used while writing at that particular page magnification.

  17. Please add an ability to randomize the order of your cards like in practice mode.

    I just checked in practice mode and now i created many card for which it makes no sense to see them in the order they were created in.

    Thank You so much!

  18. This would be a lasso feature similar to what already exists but upon selecting something, the selection is immediately copied and the next tap pastes at the tap location. This feature exists in the current lasso feature, but the suggested idea would save time.

  19. Hallo , ich Nutze GoodNotes einige Stunden am Tag und benötige es oft um eine Fotodokumentation für Baustellen aufzunehmen.
    Aufgrund der großen Datenmenge kann ich keine direkten Bilder aus der Good Notes App einspielen und muss jedes Bild einzeln in einer fremden App Resizen um es dann einzeln einzuspielen.
    Anschließend muss ich jedes Bild formatieren , was sehr Zeitaufwendig ist.

    Mein Wunsch ist es , die Bilder direkt über die App Resized einzuspielen und dabei eine fixe Bildformatierung zu haben.

    Ich hoffe auf ein Umsetzung
    Dragan
