  1. It would be useful to have the option of keeping a fixed line thickness when scaling. Proportional scaling as it is is great and very useful, but it would be good to have both. Say you have made up a bunch of graphs and saved them as stickers, you don't want the line thickness of the axes to scale with the overall size of the graph. I would find this feature useful in iOS/Mac as well.

    (If it's a headache to implement I'd rather GoodNotes stay unbloated.)

  2. As a piano teacher, I use GoodNotes for my student's lesson assignments and refer to other pages within that document (e.g. scale fingerings see pg. 7, chord voicings see pg. 11, etc). It would be nice if the pages could be accessed via a link to them without having to scroll through 12 pages; and then, if I add a page and page 7 becomes page 8, the link automatically updates to the pages new position within the document. This would be a game changer!

  3. It would be nice if we could also rearrange flash cards once they’ve been created, instead of having to take the time out to copy the info, duplicate a card in the desired spot, clear the newly duplicated card, and paste/rewrite all the info.

  5. EN: The ability to label/ write flashcards just like regular notes (i.e. picture, pencil and text AT ONCE, not just one of them at a time).
    Post’its and stickers are welcome as well.

    DE: Die Möglichkeit, Karteikarten wie normale Notizen zu beschriften/schreiben (d.h. Bild, Stift und Text AUF EINMAL, nicht nur eines davon).
    Post'its und Aufkleber sind ebenfalls willkommen.

  7. Reorganisation. In notebooks you’re able to move pages around after creating them. You can’t do this for cards which seems weird. Would also be nice to create the same outlines with this feature.

  9. Enable to add voice memos just like stickers in Goodnotes…
    The voice memo will be placed on somewhere on your notes/ PDF, just like how Stickers/ Memo sheets does

    This is far better than the inbuilt voice recording, which only allows you to record in live.
    With this import function amd placement just like memos, ir certainly makes the experience wonderful

  10. Please add the possibility to scale the background opacity. With a lower opacity of the background on import, changes would be clearly visible.

  11. i would love to be able to group items (texts, images, stickers, etc) together and be able to move/lock them as one unit. this works for handwritten text through the lasso feature but it doesn't seem to work for others and i think it this could be a great addition!

  12. Guten Tag,
    ich studiere zur Zeit und nutze dabei sehr gerne die neue Funktion der Lernsets. Eine kleine Verbesserung, welche aus meiner Sicht sehr zur Übersicht beitragen würde, ist dass man einstellen kann, von welchen Lernsets man eine Benachrichtigung bekommen möchte, dass man diese lernen soll. Ich habe nämlich viele Lernsets und verliere da total den Überblick.
    Vielen Dank im Voraus.

  13. It would be really useful with a feature which gives the opportunity to quickly jump from one page number to another random page by typing in the page number.
    The feature is already built in, but it requires too many taps to go through the menu and find it.

    I often have large PDFs in court with thousands of pages, and need to be able to jump from e.g. page 37 to 1754 really quick without too many taps.

  14. Automate AI that, when performing a search within a document, automatically includes OCR text and handwritten text. This may take a few seconds to render by request. Totally worth it.

  15. Nowadays it is becoming popular in the world to learn Ukrainian language. I propose to add Ukrainian to the list of languages. It is a language of the Cyrillic family, I think it would be easy to do on the basis of the Russian language.

  16. I cannot re-arrange the order of my study set. If i want to add a subsequent new card to a topic on e.g flashcard no.42, I need to delete every flashcard after no.42 to add that new relevant card. This wouldn't be an issue if the feature to re-arrange the cards existed.

  17. So, basically, I got .goodnotes file (digital planner imported from pdf) and when I make export file as pdf editable with annotations and background - it creates pdf file (yeey) but most part of hyperlinks are missing, or some layer of text is missing.
    For example - hyperlink to January, February will work, but April will not. Also I did re-check exported pdf into foxit reader - and it also shows that there is no particular hyperlinks but my main file do has. So it means, there is this annoying bug.

    Also, on iPad 9th gen Goodnotes 5 (last updated…

  19. I think these two text alignment buttons in apple notes- as shown in the attached image -give more freedom and more alignment degrees than the 3 buttons options in goodnotes which are less functioning( i.e. just extreme right , center , extreme left )

  20. Larger Thumbnails. One of the great things about keeping notes in a paper notebook is that you can quickly skim through previous notes. You flip through pages very quickly finding what you're looking for. Thumbnail view is the best way to do this with digital note taking. Please give the option to increase the size of the thumbnail to make this easier.
