  2. search only handwriting or only text so that i can search for just handwriting in a document rather than both

    I often annotate books for school and it would be nice if I could search only my handwriting and not the entire text of the book

  5. AUDIO TO TEXT

    It would be awesome to create a dictate function on good notes. I would love for there to be an ability for me to dictate notes and it would convert it into text.

  8. Filter for annotated pages

    When looking at imported PDF thumbnails, we should have an option to view only thumbnails of pages with annotations (highlights, handwriting). (like in Notability) This is especially useful for very large files, like textbooks.

  10. Add a ruler and/or a virtual protractor

    Why not add a ruler and/or a virtual protractor to GoodNotes, it would be so much more practical to do graphs, draw vectors etc... because at the moment there is no precise tool.
    (For example, there is a virtual rule on the Notes app on iOS).

    PS : A compass could also be useful but less important than the rule and the protractor which are ESSENTIAL!

  11. MacOS Share Menu Extension. IOS Share Actions Direct to Goodnotes.

    IOS Sharing direct to Goodnotes irregardless of what the source application is. Currently Evernote and OneNote appear to be able to receive just about any share from any application on MacOs and IOS. Screenshot attached of a sample of what they are able to do. I also have a screen shot of how I can send an application to either Evernote or OneNote. Being able to share an output directly from an app into Goodnotes removes a 1 or 2 step necessity that would require a user to transform the output into pdf and then go into Goodnotes and import…

    The dark blue colour menubar at the top of the app is:
    (a) irritating
    (b) takes up a lot of space

    Please add an option to hide it.

  18. Being able to write even in presentation mode with invisible toolbar

    It would be useful to being able to write in a document even with the toolbar being invisible. This had the effect that the whole page being visible would be bigger as it fills the whole iPad screen.
    Maybe you could create some kind of „mini toolbar“ in pop-up style that could be used in this mode.

  19. Sort Pages

    Good Day

    quite a few companies use goodnotes on the flight deck. We regularly need to rearrange the pages in a special manner. Right now you can use the overview but you only can move one page by time. It really helps if you can mark several pages and move it to a specific spot.
    That would be a super B add-on :)

  20. Allow undo when remove a document from favorites

    Sometimes I accidentally click on the star on a document from my favorites and it immediately removes it from the list.

    Please add a toast message to allow undo for this operation.
