  2. It would be really helpful to have a scrollbar that makes it quicker to scroll through long documents or notebooks. A simple, draggable bar would make navigation much more efficient.

  3. Being able to adjust the pen opacity so you get multiple shades of one color without lifting the pen and can see overlap. This really helps make notes look more realistic and aesthetically pleasing. I use max opacity on procreate and it’s perfect.

  4. It would be great to have more control over typed text formatting in GoodNotes. Specifically, the ability to change font size, color, and style—just like in word processors such as LibreOffice or Word. This would make typed notes much more flexible and visually organized, especially for studying or professional use.

  5. There isnt a way to reset smart learn. It just shows the cards i didnt remember last time i used it. It would be nice to be able to do it. Also a feature wich allows you to mark favorite flash cards and only revise them is essential.

  6. Give users full control over adding and styling page numbers in their notebooks—just like in Google Docs—so they can improve navigation and presentation without having to draw them by hand.

    Key Capabilities:

    • Automatic Page Numbering:
      Insert page numbers on every page (or a specific page range) with a single tap.

    • Flexible Positioning:
      Choose where the number appears:

      • Top-left, top-center, or top-right
      • Bottom-left, bottom-center, or bottom-right
    • Typography Options:
      Select font family, size, weight (e.g. regular, bold), and color to match your notebook’s style

    • Numbering Formats:
      Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3…), Roman numerals (I, II, III…), or custom prefixes/suffixes (e.g. “Page 1…

  8. Add the ability to create internal links to a specified bookmark rather than just a page number. So that if I add pages in the middle, all my bookmarks don't break.

    Right now if I add pages in the middle all my links change to "deleted page" and I have to rebuild them on every single page.

  13. Currently, when I try to add a text box on top of an image, Goodnotes enters image edit mode instead of letting me type. This forces me to type elsewhere and drag the text into place, which is very frustrating and inefficient — especially when editing things like sheet music or diagrams.

    Please add the ability to place and type text directly on images without switching to image edit mode. This would greatly improve the workflow for many users.

  14. When resizing images in GoodNotes, the image always scales from the center. This makes it very difficult to align multiple imported images like sheet music pages. Please allow resizing from just one side or corner (e.g., like in Keynote or Pages).

    This would make GoodNotes much more usable for music editors, designers, and people who work with imported documents. Thank you!

  16. When I am working Splitscreen on my IPad I always have to first press the button for the style of the pen to change the colour or size of the line.
    When I am working in full screen, Good Notes shows me my selected favourite colours and line sizes as part of the bar directly able to select.

    There is enough space to enable this function in Split Screen View. It makes work more efficient and fast.

    Thank you so much.

    I have added a picture of the space, where the favourite colours should be added.

  17. I have huge study sets (hundreds of flashcards). I would love to be able to set a limit for daily flashcards (e.g. 50 / day, similar to Anki), since I find it very demotivating to see a number like 150 flashcards due, especially, after I created new ones.

  19. It would be really useful to have the option to set a specific page, so that while you’re reading through your notes for example you’ll always see the number of pages you have left until your set page goal. Also navigating through bookmarks would be drastically easier if we had the option to organize them into sections, maybe by creating folders inside of the bookmark option. This would be really useful if for example you want to select and organize pages with end of chapter summaries into a folder inside of the same document you’re using instead of creating a…
