  1. The hover feature is a distinguishing feature of Apple Pencil 2 & Pro. It’s great that Goodnotes utilizes hover within the main writing space — BUT, when using the zoom box option, hover disappears. Hover is a necessity for me, making the zoom box a non-option as of right now.

  2. When using the search (find) feature, the highlighted text appears in a soft yellow color, making it hard to spot, especially if I’ve already highlighted other text.

    Please allow users to choose the highlight color in the search feature. The current dull yellow is difficult to see, and I’d prefer bold colors for better and faster visibility.”

  3. There are certain items that are used frequently but which get lost in a long list of items (e.g., new file template). It would be great to be able to pin this to the top, or in a sidebar, so that one never has to scroll to find it.

  4. hi, i'm from brasil, and i have an android, I think would be nice if you guys put the option for wrinting with the keyboard, not the text box, because i can't make the words parallel with the dotted lines, and i would also like a larger dotted line option. thanks, keep the good work! kkkkkkkk

  5. English version:
    I'm excited about the new scalable ruler. Angles to the horizontal can also be easily measured and drawn.

    BUT: Many colleagues, especially in mathematics, at my school and certainly at many other schools lack a scalable set square as a replacement or supplement. This could also be used to measure angles between two straight lines and not just to the horizontal.
    There are some ideas on how to incorporate a set square. However, these set squares do not adjust in size (scaling) when you enlarge or reduce the page. In addition, you cannot draw a line along the…

  8. I filed the documents very well classified (1;1.1;1.2 etc.) by downloading to keep a copy in my laptop, the file changes name with a name style: asdfl93kfh124fsdaf.

    Please update (very simple to implement).

  10. The new Woodnotes 6 is packed with great functionality. For some people.

    as a user who primarily (99%) writes in my native Swedish language, the experience has actually gotten worse (GN6 interpret my Swedish as wrongfully written English and tries to change it).

    Why do I have to pay extra for a worse product?

    Please offer a version without the language-dependent features for a reduced cost. I have supported GN for a VERY long time, but this makes me feel scammed. Other features that are non-language dependent are making GN6 worth an upgrade, but it's not fair that I have…

  12. When I write my notes, I want to select for example a written action item and paste it with a link to the original note in my to-do list. When I then work from my to-do list, I want to simply click on the action item to take me back to the note and page where it originated.

    Many thanks!

  14. It would be great if the spell check feature could be expanded to identify when letters or numbers are written backwards. This would be very helpful for kids and students, especially those with dyslexia.

  16. not sure if this has been brought up but as a student, sometimes our notes have pages irrelevant to our revision but we can't delete it either. similar to Google Slides, maybe Goodnotes can add a function to allow you to hide pages so that it wont appear when you scroll through the document, but can still access in the pages menu maybe?

  17. When we write something an audio tape would be really helpful. It works like the tape function but an audio is played when tapped. It will really benefit language learners as they can add the pronunciation on it and listen to it back.

  19. 希望大綱與縮圖右上角可以新增一個圖釘📌,點了就可以讓所看到的縮圖大綱進度,跟著目前操作的頁面跑,不用每次都從頭往下找,尤其是在瀏覽數百頁的資料時。
