  1. It woud be very helpful to have the opportunity to use your fingers navigate in more ways. A) For instants, use (starting from full page) 'zoom-out' with 2 or 3 finger to get to overview like the 4-square-icon does, with-out opening a new overlay windows. B) use 2 or 3 fingers to swipe faster through pages in a way the pages will move from the stack of pages.

  3. I can't use it on my iMac because it is an older version but I would truly appreciate a website version with sync capacity even if it didn't carry some of the app features

  6. In Noteshelf, instead of simply cropping an image, you can erase the background. This is super helpful when taking quick notes for class and capturing images from a presentation. I don't like having to do a freehand crop in GoodNotes just to get rid of the extra stuff. It slows down the note taking process.

  12. Please provide a way to decrease the size of the PDF's. I mark student work all the time sent to me from iOS devices - the only ones that I can not seem to decrease the size of using every technique in my arsenal are ones from GOODNOTES - inside I am saying, "BADNOTES, BADNOTES" - please fix this - thanks. For example the builtin DOC scanner in the iOS notes creates PDF's that are a very reasonable size. Thanks

  13. Often times i'm trying to draw a curved line but it's changed to a straight line. Please improve recognition between curved and straight lines.

  14. When do handwritten notes direct on a landscape oriented page (in big paper formats like A3) there is no room on the right to scroll out of the page, having enough space that my hand stays on the iPad so that I can continue writhing.
    Example: When you use a horizontal A4 page and zoom in that you can straight write on the page you can move the page more and more to the right while you are filling the paper. Once you are reaching 2/3 of the page you can still continue scrolling right and there will be this…

  16. I love the flash cards they are an amazing studying tool. But when studying them, I often feel the urge to zoom into my answers as they have diagrams. Also sometimes I need to fill in a lot of information on the flashcard which means I have to write small and when I do this, it’s really hard to see them in the study mode. It would be really helpful to be able to zoom in and out of the flash cards whilst studying them.

  17. If you've ever used procreate, you know what I'm referring to.

    The zoom out / zoom in is an annoying aspect (I'm an avid Goodnotes user so I mean this without malicious intent) when trying to focus on a specific area of the page to write notes on. Let's say for example I am focusing on a diagram I'm drawing and want to zoom out on that specific area to only see my diagram and focus on that area, it's not possible; when zooming out, the whole page is zoomed out. I would love to have zoom in/ out that…

  18. 是否可以在工具栏加上一个锁定当前页面不可编辑的功能?因为页面长期处于可编辑状态很多时候在复习阅读笔记的时候会不小心触碰到里面的内容,有时还会误删一些东西或者不小心打乱了当前页面的排版。这样笔记还要从新编辑一下。如果有一个当前页面锁定功能就可以防止这些误操作。希望得到贵公司回复。谢谢。

  19. The thing is:
    I added some huge pdf files in Good Notes, then iCloud complained that it's almost full. So wanted to delete some documents, but I couldn't check which one is bigger.
    So, just showing how big a documents is, maybe next to the date and time when last edited, would be just perfect. And probably one of the easiest features to add, I would assume.
    And maybe also show the size of each folder?

    Would that be possible?
    Many thanks.
