  1. iCloud is not the only storage everyone using. Please arrange a better back up option. It is a must needed.

    Many users posted about it. If you are not interested developing it please be clear and announce. If you’re interested developing it please provide the deadline.
    So customer can decide whether to keep adding more notes to this application or stop using it.

    Your answer or unanswered response will say many things to me.
    Thank you.

  2. As I am using Goodnotes daily for school work I often need to access transcripts at a later point when I am doing homework for example. Having the option to easily access my notes on my Windows PC while I am writing on another part of the page or even another page on my iPad would make working with Goodnotes a much better experience, as the collaboration feature often not works for me as intended and is a lot more time-consuming to do. I have been using OneNote before and the only think making me think about switching back to…

  3. Las personas crean flashcards a veces 100 o 1000 tarjetas y para buscar una tarjeta en específico es complicado buscar una por una para ver que dice, seria mejor una “lupa” para buscar palabras en específico.

  4. I’d love to see GoodNotes have a cool feature that pulls together all the comments in one spot. It’d make things way more fun and flexible—imagine being able to jot down a quick summary for each page or add extra notes for a quick review later, all in one go

  5. When opening any document, especially with PDFs, it would be great to have the possibility to have a separate page on the side to take notes. This page on the side sticks to every side in the notebook while scrolling and is not included while exporting.
    Especially for students, this would matter a great deal. Because, for example, we have the slides which the professor gave us in our main document inserted, and then he talks and talks. One has to write down all the stuff the professor just said down, but it isn't possible within the slide because there…

  6. I find I am always looking to go BACK to the HOME or FOLDER LIST and would like a shortcut key (i.e., CMD+___) to quickly go back a page. So for instance, I want to open several documents under a folder. I’m using the HOME button AND would like a keyboard shortcut to make that happen.

  9. Let us write notes next to the slides, like you can do in OneNote. It is absolutely crucial for students, especially when teachers write a lot on their PowerPoints. I love GoodNotes but I keep thinking about switching to OneNote because of this feature.

  12. Is it possible to expand the Goodnotes cloud service to all users?
    I read the page ( Goodnotes Cloud on IOS Pilot Program).On this page, the Cloud is only eligible for Yearly plan members...That is pretty sad 😢 What I am concerned about is I already paid for other cloud services. For iCloud,I won't pay a subscription.

    Meanwhile, I saw there may be invitations to upgrade iCloud to goodnotes cloud...hope that I am not misunderstanding, cause two statements are a bit contradict.

    If this advice will be accepted in the future, It is convenience. Thank you.

  13. Something I have noticed when typing out paragraphs, is that sometimes good notes will auto finish a word without me pressing space or tab for example and just inserts the whole word whilst I'm typing. Lets say I am writing While and start writing the first two letters, it will auto finish the word but I keep writing in the middle of the word so it becomes really weird; like this WHwhile I am doing thisILE, The capital letters is what good notes automatically wrote for me

  14. I noticed that my iPad battery gets drained very quickly when I use Goodnotes. It would be great if the Goodnotes team could introduce the features of "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" so that it won't consume a lot of battery when I don't need peak performance.

    Also, it would be even great to have to GoodNotes team decrease the overall battery consumption of app without introducing those 2 features :)

  15. A feature that would allow users to use their own OpenAI API (ChatGPT) to interact with their notes could be helpful. GoodNotes has been rolling out the Goodnotes AI feature, but the FAQ says that you can't increase the usage quota (which is set to 30 messages). The issue with this is I consume 30 messages limit within a few hours 🙁, so I have to ultimately switch apps back and forth (GoodNotes and ChatGPT).

  19. The AI lasso tool is used to spellcheck any words you may have misspelled, but what if it could improve your handwriting. I’ve found that as I write, there are a lot of inconsistencies in my handwriting. If you could add a baseline for each character (number/letters) and lasso over any words to improve the quality of handwriting that would be so cool.

  20. As the title suggests, the Windows app is missing a lot of key features. Audio Recording is a must when taking notes in class. The handwriting is unusable. It's the worst among handwriting apps on Windows. And if you want to type your notes, you're stuck with one single font.
