  2. My school uses a Learning Management System (LMS) which accepts LTI1.3. It would be amazing if GoodNotes could also have an LTI1.3 option- which would allow my students the ability to use/access their GoodNotes in the LMS (and turn in assignments there).

  3. Goodnotes for Android can be used without connection or offline system so that Android users can use Goodnotes for Android without connection if their house area is black out, getting emergency situation and getting remote working if their signal is off in their house area. Then Android users can write everything on Goodnotes for Android without connection or offline system in the future. Thank you.

  4. Please bring back drawing thickness so that it's not under a dropdown menu. Taking notes is way more streamlined with having the 3 thickness options readily available in the toolbar

  5. If we can see 4 pages of 1 slayt at the same time, it will be more efficient and beneficial for us ı think. We can study at whole perspective.

  6. Ich wünschte mir eine Übersichtsfunktion bei dem Lernset, damit man eine Übersicht aller Karten hat ohne alle durchzuswipen zu müssen.

    Englisch:

    I would like to see an overview function on the learning set so that you have an overview of all the cards without having to swipe through them all.

  7. This used to not be a problem until a week ago but since the update for more pen colors on the toolbar, the pen thickness is now behind two tap s, one to open the menu and the second to select the thickness. This has affected my usual work flow and it’s more tedious than I thought it would be initially.

    Also the addition of more colors on the toolbar is not ideal for me since I just like to work with three colors to keep everything simple and clean (the UI also feels more cluttered to me for some…

  8. Maybe an option of hold pressing on the thickness button and the ability to change the width by sliding pen up and down (to select the strokes), so we wouldn't have to open the stroke button every 2 seconds for switching?

  11. Wanna divide {ONLY Straight Line} button from {Square,Triangle,Circle} button because whenever I write / before conjunction or kinda adverb, it always becomes curve.

    Also, that suggested {ONLY Straight Line} button needs to include Highlighter, too. Because that Highlighter's straight option does not works well and it highlights as curve. But my book in PDF does not curved.

    I want to study in a effective way with fast writing straight lines instead of drawing fine art curve. But currently, Goonotes5 on iPad enforce me art on my textbook PDF.

    So JUST make {ONLY Straight Line} button including pen and highlighter.

  13. I love GoodNotes on iOS but would LOVE to use it on my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 which is 7.6" - just shy of the 8" minimum. Any chance as the beta goes, GoodNotes will open up to my size screen?

  14. On the new update is now harder to quickly change the thickness of the pencil and hglg, would be great to slide from up to down on the icon that you press to open the thickness selector menu to quickly switch to the next thickness level and from down to up to the previous one.

    I'm a student who writes notes with lots of different thicknesses and colors, the new update made me more productive when switching colors but less productive when changing thicknesses

    There's a video with the desired gesture

  15. Please can we have the three line thickness options back on the toolbar? It’s an extra click now to access a drop down which is less convenient.

    I think you’ve replaced it with an extra line colour option but I preferred it before.

    😊

  16. After the latest update that allows the user to add more than 3 colours, the stroke menu has morphed into this menu that you must click on to expand first and only then will it allow you to choose stroke sizes. Nobody has asked for the latter and please restore it. Thank you

  18. I used to write with a fountain pen all the time but switched to iPad because I had so many notebooks it was getting a bit ridiculous trying to go back through my notes. One thing I miss so much is the way ink looks on a page, particularly inks with hi sheen and shading. Colours vary in intensity at different points on the page, some completely change depending on the amount of ink laid down and it really makes writing enjoyable and makes revising notes oddly satisfying. Please add some form of this to GoodNotes as an option when…

  19. After the new update, we got the option to have more than 3 colours in our tool bar, but we lost the quick access to pen size curser because of that.
    Definitely a downgrade.
    Having to click on the little icon to change the size is so annoying and time consuming.
    So please bring the old version back, where we can have our 3 pen sizes directly onto our toolbar.
