  1. The writing experience needs a for-real chisel point, fountain pen look. The app Notesplus has a gorgeous one, but I had to give it up because GoodNotes is better in every other way. But man, I miss it. See examples uploaded...

  3. Please insert a doted line like in notability. And the eraser that transforms a normal line into a doted line. That would help a lot.
    Thanks

  5. First , I chooses GoodNotes but when i when I know the two things about Noteshelf is that-
    1) we can recor d and also import voice record from file and also we can manage on page where we need .
    2) and also individual file lock
    Really this attract me and I switched on Noteshelf..

    If GoodNotes also add this feature in his app then it will be great.

    Please review this feature, I also attached this in comments
    Please find it

  7. Elements Improvement Suggestion

    1) It is often that user import a whole page of stickers that haven't been 'cut' individually. An option to be able to "edit" elements and crop them out (rectangle/freehand) would be helpful so we can import a whole page of uncut PNG rather than having to cut them one by one to import into Elements.

    2) When selecting elements, elements are automatically placed in the middle of the page, because elements can be rather small, it sometimes gets muddled with other stickers/elements making it difficult to select and move it. I would like to suggest the…

  8. Please make it so that we can multi-select any file when importing. I am trying to use the new collections button to start my own sticker book that can be accessed on any page or notebook but it will not let me select multiple png images from my Files! It also won’t let me upload whole folders with the png images in them. I have to instead save them all to my camera roll and then uplosd them there!

  9. It would be very useful to insert a function that, after selecting an equation written by hand with the pen, using the lazo tool, recognizes this and calculates it automatically.

  11. Please fix “keyboard shorcuts” while in text mode. Goodnotes for some weird reason only makes you select a letter to switch between tools instead of “ command and the letter. So when trying to type on a external keyboard i cant type a P,E,H,S,L,I,C,or T with out it completely switching tools and existing out of typing mode. I feel like this is pretty big oversite and is unfortunately the only reason i have to us notability over good notes when typing at times. I can understand if this is a mac feature but as far as an ipad goes its…

  13. Dear GoodNotes

    Hi, I'm an university student who is using your application very often.

    It is a bit shameful to say but to be honest, my handwriting isn't that good.

    So I hope the good notes automatically change my handwriting into Text.

    If you apply deep learning system for each users, AI will understand and change someone's handwriting to Text even if his handwriting is barely understandable in human's view . And also, users can customize their own AI system.

    It must improve and reduce misconversion for each users.

    I hope you consider about it

    Best regards

  17. we really really need to be able to resize png stickers from the corner, not from the centre as it work now
    we also need the rotate separated from the resize because its just too easy to accidentally rotate when you do not wish to
    I have heard so many people on the net say they have requested this, please consider in your next update
    thank you

  19. I have been using GoodNotes for over two months now. The only thing I would point to as poor is the text input/editing functions. Please add a few basic options such as Bullet Point, Check Box, and Tables.

    GoodNotes is my favorite note-taking app, but the text function could be improved a little more.
