  1. Für viele komplexe Aufgaben wird bei der Konstruktion eine genaue Gradzahl benötigt. Mit einem Geodreieck wäre dies auch ohne andere App leicht möglich.

  2. I love that you can backup to google drive but think it would be even better if we could backup specific folders in goodnotes to specific folders in google drive. i.e. a lecture notes folder on goodnotes only syncs to a google drive folder for that class.

  3. Hi! I’m in medical field, constantly studying and reading PDF files along side-taking notes, so I use the iPad split screen feature everyday.

    Whenever I use the split-screen feature, I cannot easily access the colors of my pens unlike if I were in the 2/3th split view or full screen view of the Goodnotes App. oI have to click the upper right portion to change the characteristics of my pens which would waste a lot of my time since I take a lot of color-filled notes.

    My go-to PDF reader application, “Documents: allows me to set specific pen characteristics in…

  4. A brush that when passed over the colors mixes them and thus creates gradients, for texts and drawings!
    I will leave an example of some texts that are nice in the procreate app, it would be very useful to have a mixer brush integrated in GoodNotes :)

  5. it would be great if the horizontal Page Swipe should be as smooth as the vertical.
    If you swipe to next pages you must do a long way with your finger.Sometimes two or three times.
    It needs to be faster.
    Thank you…

  6. The zoom window is great but it would be better if it wasn't locked to the bottom of the screen.

    If the zoom window could be moved to the upper or lower corners of the screen or relegated to a movable box. That way you could use the zoom window without moving the entire document all the time.

  7. hope to make a function that can combine any element just like the function in WORD of MS office. So that users can make their own complex object such as table with lines and text box, complex shape with many circles and rectangles. if users can combine and split all elements freely, we can make our document better and edit it more easily

  8. The addition of a tool to blur individual word or parts of images. To use for studying on it own or to create flashcards after using ‘take screenshot’. Ease of function similar to highlight tool

  9. It would be great if you could add new pages to the right of each page in vertical scrolling mode, like page(3.1).

  10. I’ll be teaching first aid classes soon and we used tons of FlipCharts & chisel tip pens when we learned how to teach them. I’d like to use what I learned in class to teach and use my iPad at the same time. I‘ve been using GoodNotes for a while now and I really think a Chiseltip feature and maybe a FlipChart-esque template would really improve the app

  11. Adding the ability to attach pop up notes on highlighted words, similar with adobe acrobat. We should be able to minimize the notes after accessing them. This would clearly benefit students like me who likes to add further notes on books and PDFs without being limited to writing on the side of each page.

  12. Making it able to change the colour of the background of the imported documents so it looks more like a real paper page could improve the reading experience, while one is studying and making notes. Since the background in the notebooks are designed after this concepts, it seems weird that it is a neglected feature for the imported documents.

  13. I import so many pdf texts for studying and all of the time I am in need of definitions of the words in those documents, I would kill for Goodnotes to have this feature.

  14. When I’m drawing a function like on a graph it would be helpful if i could just draw a parabola without it being ruined or not proper.

  15. It would be very usefull if it was added a color selector, much like paint as it. for example you are using someone else notes or writing or a preexisting template, it would be very helpful if you could select the color of something that written already and start using the same color to write
