  1. I would like to convert an entire note to plain text (including all pages) with one export/convert/copy operation and not have to lasso select each page one-at-a-time.

  2. It would be nice to be able to get the possibility to sort the documents by date by default and not only get the documents organized by name when you star the app.

  3. I have a brain injury that makes reading extremely laborious and stops me cold after a minute or so. I have a need to “read” and annotate PDF docs, but don’t want to use a different app to speak the text and GoodNotes to annotate. It’s too unwieldy even with multitasking windows because the text does not sync.

  6. The cutout tool should work over pages. If I'm cutting out a text or object on page one, then vertically scroll a bit down to page 2 I should be able to move the marked object over the pages to place it on the new one without copying it every time just for rearrange purposes.

  7. A function which allows you to have a seamless page in vertical scroll directiont, not like the one right now where we have to add always a new page.. it should just add them automatically without a "hard" scroll at the pages end.

  10. I am a student and I use goodnotes to take notes or write down my idea. So I always need to swap between pen and eraser when I make some mistake, I think it is so inconvenient clicking screen to swap between the tools.

    I suggest a feature, auto swap back to pen tool after using eraser(for about 2 seconds without continue erasing)

    THANK YOU!

  11. Instead of having the Goodnotes default tool palette, it'd be good if the new iPadOS Tool Palette was introduced (when it comes out of course) on devices that support the system.

  13. 1.In the Zoom Window, eraser, frequently used color, backward, etc. have disappeared. It is annoying because the move is long.

    2.After all, it does not seem to support two page views at a time.

    3.No highlighter in Drawing Shapes. Drawing shape with Highlighters are only linear ...
    At Goodnote 4, i can draw circle, triangle, etc with highlighter.

    4.There is still no changing the template at once ....
    When I write i use grid and i print i with only white page.
    I have to change it every single page.

    5.On the preview page, version 4 shows the current page…

  16. The toolbar should be small or flexible enough to allow a smaller windows for the split view in macOS. At the moment GoodNotes uses almost 2/3 of the screen, in previous versions with the hidden toolbar you could size the window freely.

  17. You could let us choose which tools to add to the bar... So that we could easily find the more frequent tools we use and discard/ hie the ones we don’t.
