  1. I am a physician. I use GoodNotes (for iPad) to send requisitions to my secretary, as well as radiology and laboratories.

    If I am writing a prescription for a radiology test that I will always send to the same radiology clinic, it makes sense that I can define a default recipient for that particular form.

    It would simplify the workflow, just fill out the form and hit HotShare (you are free to use the term .... no copyrights on that .... (<end joke>).

    As it stands I have to fill the form, hit print, select print all pages, then pinch-zoom…

  2. two-way sync option for google drive where deleted files on the app will also be deleted on google drive. Upon the google drive sync, folders that I have moved or deleted were still there

  3. it ist great that now it is possible to backup our files with for example google drive/one drive.

    But it were much better if we could sync the Backup folder with goodnotes.
    Thus we get much easier and faster import from the computer

  4. It will be very nice, if you could specify a certain time period for Auto-Backup.

    For example Once a day or every hour. Because I think, since I activate it, my battery of the IPad is much faster empty

  5. hello it would be great if the new colors added by a user do not reset with each update, because it is very tedious to go and enter all the new colors again.

  7. Please allow to add not only PDF but also images from the Files-sheet by tapping +. When draging-and-dropping in splitview from the Files app adding images to documents as new page works fine, so why don‘t you allow it from inside the app?

  8. This would allow to use other cloud services that are integrated into the Files app, in particular secure, end-to-end encrypted services.

  9. it would be great to have a tool that lets you fill in a shape or a diagram, especially for hand drawn pictures that we all love to insert in our notes. Using the highlighter to fill in the shape take too much time and is also imprecise.

    please add it

  10. Can GoodNotes please allow me to export my notes with a table of content and handwriting recognition at the same time? It is such a bummer that I cannot have both of these basic features to exist in the same file :(

  13. Sometimes I import the same image more than once onto a page. The first time, the image will be of a certain size. The second time I import it, it comes in larger. This is very puzzling. 9-handle resize as well as alignment options would be welcome. And like others, I don't understand why images come in so large. Even when they're made pretty small.

  14. Add a keyboard shortcut to go to the top of a document or bottom of a document on the Mac. It is difficult to move around in large documents without them. Thanks!

  15. Would anyone else love to see the pages in Goodnotes have the ability to freely rotate/turn to help with writing fatigue?

    Having my iPad on a stand to not have it flat only allows one angle for my hand. If we could freely rotate the page (as many of the drawing apps can), would help tremendously with writing fatigue and bullet journaling / drawing.

  16. Red sheet is unique to Japanese vocabulary books. As you know from the video, if you can use this sheet, it is definitely way easier to memorize various things such as vocabulary.

  17. This is not really a feature request, but rather a bug report. When switching pages in a document with the arrow keys on a keyboard, the bookmark icon does not change. It always remains on the state of the first, with touch gestures selected, page.

  18. As there are different color palettes for the pens and the highlighter, it would be great if the colors displayed when selecting „change color“ over the context menu would adapt to the currently used tool.
    Currently it always displays the color palette from the pens.

  19. With more than 3 colors in the tool bar, but it would be perfect if we could edit the tool bar and eliminate the tools we don’t use

    About lasso tool, you can improve it with a multiple choose of the objects you want to edit, 4example the texts you want to edit with the same color
