  1. For example, being able to add a template like graph paper onto the Zoom Window function and changing how opaque that template is on the function (to write neater and more in a straight line on imported documents!).

  2. I've been making stickers to go together to make a whole picture, but I can't put them in the order I choose. They keep covering each other up in the wrong order I would like t put them in the order I choose.

  3. Continually exporting my notes into pdf result in endless filenames, if the file already exists: „Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of filename.pdf“.

    To prevent this, a checkbox „overwrite, if file exists“ in the pdf-export-options would be very helpful.

  6. Please allow resizing by entering in specific dimensions with options to constrain or un-constrain sizing. Or, fix image imports to apply in actual size.

  8. Sometimes, I wanna to edit the page after I did notes. Like add a picture. If GoodNotes has a function can put handwriting notes into a transparent layer, I can move it to anywhere, even move to another page. So that I don’t have to erase and write again.

  10. You write a subtitle, then you're able to mark it as that and it will appear at the beginning of your book in a normal written (not hand-written) style.
    Also i would love if the few last and the few next subtitles would appear next to the site you're currently using. While you can swipe horizontal to change the site you can scroll vertically to go through your titles and tap at it.
    in the vertical (tablet) mode is a lot of blank space. would be great if it could be used.

  11. It will be much helpful while presenting screen, or making recorded notes.

    Viewer will easily be able to see, where my pen tip is now, and for which statement I am currently talking about.

  14. if I draw a shape, and i want to make another one exactly the same, i have to lasso it and copy it and then paste it. There should be a "DUPLICATE" button that appears when you lasso something and it will automatically copy and paste.

  15. Drawing a straight line works really well. It would be great if a beautiful wavy line could also be drawn neatly in a similar way. Teachers use this a lot to underline small errors for example.

  16. It would be nice to have the option to disable hold to zoom as this will often pop up when I am writing any dots, periods, or multiplication signs (I like to make them fairly visible).
    I'm fairly sure Notability has this, so it would be nice to have this option in this app as well.

  18. A stabilizer setting for pens in GoodNotes!

    Currently, when you go look on the GoodNotes App, on the Apple App Store, the previews show that you're able to easily draw these examples and diagrams for notes.. but it's VERY difficult to do in reality.

    If you talk to any Digital Artist, they'll tell you a stabilizer one of the most important features to have in any drawing program.

    I'm not trying to draw anything fancy, really. It's just really hard to draw remotely anything without the lines being jagged.

    More flexibility with the brush settings, in general, would help users…

  20. There's nothing more satisfying than having calendar templates that actually integrate with most common calendar formats (at least google calendar or Apple iCloud Calendar).
    Some awesome functionality:I would like to DRAW the length of an event and have that correspond to the assigned duration of the event, have Apple Calendar display my written notes on the calendar (similarly to how Apple Notes does it), have some advanced notational features that translate into editing notes or stuff in the calendar.

    Or at least have a weekly or monthly planner template that also allows some "add to calendar" functionality or "get a…
