  1. We should be able to write something out and if we want to go back and change not just the color, the stroke size, whether we want it written with dashed lines, dotted lines. Also we should be able to charge the color of our math equations

  2. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    As someone who has been using GoodNotes for nearly three years, I was quite surprised by the recent update. Since writing is very important to me and GoodNotes has been one of the best tools I have ever had, I wanted to share some feedback right away:

    1.  Thank you for finally adding the floating toolbar option. However, the current design has some issues. For example, since the toolbar now sits lower on the page, it reduces the available workspace and sometimes overlaps with the text, which is not ideal.
    
    2.  The new toolbar design limits access

  3. The new feature “White board” was launched, but the default language won’t applied.
    My native language is Japanese, and I set it as a default language.
    However, the default language for “White board” is not Japanese but English, and I need to change the language everytime. I hope this bag will be corrected.

  5. Easy to go back to home page to find another file. But something I just want to go back to my existing open tabs. You have a home button, put a return to editing button. Right now the quickest way which is annoying is to open some random file I see on my home page to reaccess my tabs. And then I have to close that random open file.

  7. Pen that writes exactly like the new pencil. So a sharp pen that’s not a fountain pen or a ball pen.

  8. You can duplicate a file but you cant duplicate a folder. I create template folders and it would be useful to duplicate the master folder.

  9. Be able to take multiple strokes with stylus to crop an image or edit/modify current crop area instead of having to start again, would be great for intricate crops!

  10. When using the Apple Pencil one of the most useful features as of late has been the double tap toggle back-and-forth between your current tool and the last tool used, but it would make a world of a difference if you could:

    add support for a toggle that can activate a double or triple tap option on the Apple Pencil that would function as an immediate undo button!! Like undo last stroke, text, paste, action, etc

    A triple tap on the pencil would allow the undo button to work without interfering with the toggle between tools feature! Making the handwriting…

  11. The scribble to erase feature on the pen setting is amazing!!; it would be great to have continuity between the pencil and the pen features (scribble to erase, sensitivity, adjustments, and gestures, etc!

  12. Früher konnte man in der Gesamtübersicht immer gleich die Seiten anklicken, die man bearbeiten, versenden oder drucken wollte.
    Jetzt muss man erst auf … drücken und das bearbeiten ermöglichen. Schade, das war vorher viel einfacher!

  13. Früher konnte man beim Einfügen einer neuen Seite immer seine zuletzt genutzten Seiten im Hoch- und Querformat sehen. Da ich ständig zwischen beiden Wechsel war das sehr praktisch.
    Jetzt muss ich manuell immer erst auf das passende Format wechseln und kann dann die gewünschte Seite wählen.
    Nur ein Klick, aber trotzdem schade.

  14. Right now, only text can function as links. This is constraining. One should be able to make any selection a link to any other selection.

    Transclusion allows bits of other parts of documents to not only be linked to, but included within the content of another document or within the same document. A selection is a generalization of a quotation, but instead of making a copy, we have something analogous to an iframe. The same source selection can occur in more than one location, with a link to the original. Electronic notebooks can do this, because they do not suffer…

  16. Create a way for AI to interpret your sentences when converting from handwritten notes to text. If the OCR can’t read your handwriting, AI will fill the gaps by using context, logic, and writing patterns. This way it saves students time and improve accuracy when reviewing notes or converting notes from handwritten to text.
