  1. While working with an iPad Pro 12" the navbar i kind of empty please add a fast option for color changing. It would be great if you would place about 5 colours directly between the boxwriting and the pen symbol and the pen thickness on the other side!

  2. Since the iPad Pro differentiates between pencil and finger interaction why not while using the pencil allow the finger to erase. This would be very efficient for the users.

  3. It would be nice if there were an option to autocorrect shapes. If I really want a diamond (decision) shape, but didn't draw a perfect shape, it'd be nice if there were a way for me to indicate I want autocorrection to adjust the angles so it's perfect. Same goes for circles, squares and rectangles (right angle correction). An example of this concept is how Paper does this, though my preference is to use GoodNotes. :)

  5. We can currently only print all pages or print 1 page, but I have lengthy notebooks with my math homework for instance, but I don't know the number of the page my homework starts on, I would like an option in addition to Print all and print this page, that would print starting from my current page. Sure its possible to scroll through the notebook and select the pages you actually want, but as I get further into the term, my notebooks get longer and longer and this becomes more and more tiresome.

  7. I take a ton of notes and produce a lot of todos from meetings, etc.

    OneNote had this feature 15 years ago whereby you would add a todo box next to the line of a handwritten note. It then had a todo notebook that would pull all of the todo boxes from all notebooks. I'm dying to have this feature. I've searched and searched and can't find the feature anywhere! Please please add this!!

  8. It would be great to be able to clip web content from a browser (as in Notability). Often I want to copy an equation from Wikipedia and insert it into my notes, ideally with a reference.

  11. If the user hovers over the shape recognition icon in the tool bar at the top, a window pops up similar to what happens when you hover over the pencil or highlighter. In this window, the user can select "Shape Recognition" which is what we have today or they can select "Shape Pallet". Different pallets could then be selected for things like Flowcharting Shapes, "Architectural Shapes", "Furniture Shapes", etc. A feature like this would enable GoodNotes to morph into a very specific type of note taking tool based on the industry and unique requirements of the user.

  12. plain text pages would accept/display plain text input as their main content meaning that the text whole page accepts text starting at the upper left corner without the ability or need to move or position a textfield.
    In addition it would be great if Asciidoc and/or Markdown would be formatted or highlighted.

  13. Give the possibility to create own templates such as project plan, meeting minutes or any other use full template. Just provide a empty page, where users are able to draw/create their own templates with the existing tools (Handwriting, Lines, Boxes, Text, ...). Give the possibility to use that page as privat template.
    Additional to the creation of own templates, there should be the possibility to upload the privat templates to a platform, where users can share their experience with others.

  17. Adding the shapes tool and others. As a student with classes in physics and calculus I use the shapes tool frequently and there's a delay in my efficiency when I have to leave my sight line in the zoom window to go up to the main toolbar.
