  2. When using the lasso tool to cut/copy-paste images, pen, highlighter and shapes the lasso tool remains active after the desired paste action has been completed.

    When the lasso tool is used to perform the same cut/copy-paste function for text, once the text has been pasted the laso tool is dropped in favour of the text tool.

    Can the lasso tool remain the dominant feature after moving text please? I find myself inadvertently entering punctuation into the middle of text because the tool has defaulted without being actioned to do so

  3. Currently, it’s not possible to use the trackpad for actions like deleting notifications or navigating within study sets. For example, you cannot swipe between flashcards in study sets with the trackpad, which makes the navigation feel clunky and inconsistent. Adding trackpad support for these things would greatly improve the user experience both on iPadOS and macOS.

  4. It would be amazing for technical sketching if shapes would lock to the grid when either drawing or using the lasso tool. Additionally the circle shape should have their handles for resizing on the top, bottom, left and right (always) instead of somewhere random. A „snap to center“ option would be also great, so you could e.g. center one circle within another one easily.

  5. I’d like to be able to write notes on a page, and then create hidden pages behind it to do examples or whatever, kind of like writing on the back of a page in a physical notebook. Something that’s not another separate page that i would see when scrolling through my notes but if i wanted to see examples related to my notes on a specific page, or more inessential notes related to a specific topic, they would be attached to that page or “behind” it. This would be most useful in pdfs and math related subjects.

  7. Once we finish reading a PDF and want to delete it for good, we now have to go to the location (folder) of the file and delete. That is lot of work navigating to the actual location.
    Give us the option in the file options to trash the file.

  8. it would be great if you could add this feature on the next update. Selecting multiple pages at once to delete highlighted or handwritten notes separately. I have multiple documents that I’ve highlighted and sometimes I would like to just delete the highlighted sections but then it would delete my pen notes and it’s tedious to use the erase for just highlights

  9. Tabs should have folder capabilities. When you tap on the tab there should a way you can embed multiple notes into one tab

  10. When using the trackpad to scroll in GoodNotes on Mac, there seems to be a delay at the start. The scroll doesn’t begin immediately, and it feels like I have to move my finger a certain distance before the scrolling actually starts.

  11. In the iPad app, you can do either textboxes or you can choose to use the 'typing mode' where the text automatically aligns with the lines on the page. I would love to have this feature for the Windows version of the app!

  12. I'd love to have the option to toggle off the pop up window when clicking on hyperlinks leading out of GoodNotes. It would improve my workflow so much.

  13. When you write a word in flash cards , you have an option for aI generated image or stock photo to add to either side of the card . This would be helpful for language learning and science flash cards

  15. Since you have added math conversion. Would it be great if the text can also use the latex code and then convert it immediately? Especially if you are typing on keyboards. You just want to type the math notation in latex code rather than using apple pencil and then convert it one by one....

  16. I'm using the Good Note 6 as an iPad, and I usually take a lot of notes. Please add an Apple Pencil tilt deactivation function in the standard pencil. I want to prevent the writing from getting thicker depending on the tilt because it's uncomfortable to take notes.

  18. I wanted to share some feedback and a request for GoodNotes 6. I noticed many users, including myself, are looking forward to a new feature update we’ve seen discussed online. This feature would be incredibly useful for me, especially since I often watch tutorials on YouTube and record them on my iPad Pro 12. When I’m importing content and need to take notes, this feature would be a game changer. I’ve been a fan of GoodNotes 6 since I bought it and have seen it improve over time. I’m really hoping for a smooth integration of this feature in the…
