  3. To use GoodNotes in a company environment and to process confidential data, encryption of all data transfers is a must-have.

    Use a standard strong crypto implementation to encrypt all data send via internet to BackUp or sync servers.

    For me it is OK to enter the (strong) password on each device every time or to store it locally on the device. But the data on the external servers should be fully encrypted.

    The system should be well documented and certified by external IT security experts.

  4. The toolbox now has a set number of options, it would be useful for everyone if there is an option to edit the items in toolbox, so it can be customized to each individual use. For me I never use zoom or camera or text options, but I would like to have some extra pen colors.

  5. Notability somehow takes up considerably less amounts of space on the iPad compared to goodnotes. How can we optimise the data to maximise space saving?

  6. This is an amazing feature notability has that is extremely welcome and needed in Goodnotes. The text function in goodnotes is flawed and if you don’t use the default 24 point, you are completely out of luck and text doesn’t line up with the spacings

  7. Goodnotes 4 had the main folder sorted by name. Every subfolder could by sorted by name or date, according to my decision. I would like to keep sorted the folders included in the main folder by name, and being able to order every subfolder in a different way

  8. When i scan a book , it is faster and more convenient to scan to pages together and we also get some black spaces because the size of the book doesn’t match the size of the scanner.

    I want to be able to crop the pages (get rid of black spaces) and split the ‘ two page’ scanned page in the middle.
    This site is doing the task but we have to pay for that

  12. It would be great to resize imported pages. For example, I import a lot of PowerPoint PDF pages, it would be nice to resize page canvas size to allow more room for sidebar notes.

  15. Hey! You could you please add the old feature again so that I can sync the app with my Mac? It's super annoying to send all the files to my macbook, with GoodNotes 4 I was able to sync with Google Drive. This would help a lot!! Thanks

  16. Text needs to be improved, like in Noteshelf 2!!!!
    - Bullet points and other text features like tables needed to be added
    - Switching quickly between preset text fonts and sizes, this is really bad at the moment! Often settings just don‘t work.
    - Text boxes are annoying, don't mix well with handwriting and do not fit into the lines of the default page!!!!

  17. I like to convert hand written notes to text for transfer to Word etc. having to deal with the carriage returns your converter puts in is a pain. It would be much better if the conversion just used word-wrap and let us deal the the txt box shape.

  18. There is a problem with the shape tool, very often I have to repeat the action, because of missing couloring of the area I marked. It would be very nice, if it would be possible to coulor an area after marking it with the pencil.

  19. I would like to know when good notes will be available on Microsoft Go? I need to buy a tablet for my work, my job requires goodnote but I would really prefer Microsoft Go over an iPad. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you!

  20. In GoodNotes 5, the ink in the fountain pen is too sensitive. More pressure makes the line much thicker than in version 4. And less pressure makes the line much thinner than in version 4. In version 4, the range of the ink thickness was much narrower. I would use ballpoint pen mode but that has no pressure sensitivity at all. Essentially I would love some option for a little pressure sensitivity but not too much. Can you please make that happen? In the meantime I will keep using version 4. Thank you!
