  1. With the new apple pencil pro, integrate the option to squeeze to erase and then when you stop, it goes back to your previous tool. I believe this is a new feature in notability.

  2. As a Physics teacher I have to do so much calculations while solving numerical. It will be very helpful if we have apple math notes with all the features like graph plotting and variable detection etc integrated to goodnotes.

  3. It seems small problem but changing pen directly from toolbar in one tap will be game changer .. changing colour is simple we know but changing ballpoint, brush and fountain pen directly is only imagination

  4. The search results highlight for a single word is too soft and light. It's quite difficult to find the word on the page. Please make the hilight much more prominent

  5. I think the smart study feature lets you repeat the cards way too often. This is really frustrating if you have a study set with a lot of cards (100+). I think it would be better if the intervals were longer.

  7. There are many add ons in the marketplace like planners for example that we’d have to pay for to access.

    There should ideally be an option to try them out for a short period of time before buying. It’s difficult to determine which planner option would be bested based on the screenshots shown under each in the marketplace.

    The last thing anyone wants is to spend €9.99 on a planner that doesn’t suit your needs.

  8. Once I’m in a notebook and I want to return to the previous folder almost 99% the home button brings me to the home page and I have to go through all the folders again in order to get where I need to be.

  9. When scanning, each scanned document is converted to the US Letter format. This means an originally A4-sized sheet is shrunk and gains borders. This is problematic because I am a geometry teacher, and when a student draws a line of, for example, 7 cm on their A4 sheet, the internal Goodnotes ruler only reads 6.3 cm. This is inconvenient. I would like to be able to set the format to A4 during scanning so that all real lengths can be accurately measured by the Goodnotes ruler.

  10. If the AI could read the PDF background/template, the annotations could be put into context. This would be very helpful for planner, journals or almost any document.

  11. In the pages tab can we select multiple pages and then choose “paste into” to then paste the clipboard contents into all selected pages in the same place as the item was copied from. Eg boxes, shapes, text for tabs etc

    I know we can paste pages but paste INTO pages would be amazing.

  13. Hi Goodnotes-Team,
    as an architect, I often use Goodnotes on the building site to take measurements on the spot. I have to take a relatively large number of photos for this. It would be extremely useful to be able to take several photos at the same time and not have to start the process again after each photo.
    Best regards Tobi

  14. Please add the new math notes feature to Goodnotes when the ipados18 will be released. It would be a very helpful feature.

  15. Assuming I have the video content already on my device allow me to embed a video frame in the GoodNotes page in the middle of the other page content. If it’s super complicated to do the same with external video sources then limit it to device content only for now. This would be a big improvement.

  16. As a teacher I often have a lot of open documents, that are currently needed for the different classes I teach. When opening more than 4 or 5 files it gets difficult to distinguish between them without having to go back into folders.

    The following features would help here:
    - a dropdown menu to choose the file I need
    - the ability to group document tabs
    - colored document tabs similar to the new folder colors
    - a visual overview option to see small versions of all open documents, similar to the overview of open GoodNotes instances for split view…

  17. Whenever I type a number or hyphen at the start of a line, an automatic bullet/numbered list will appear and hijack my original structure. Can you provide an option to turn off automatic lists?

  18. It would be great if you could change the gmail your account is linked to, so that you could have access to them in another drive. When I first made an account it was with my everyday email, now I have a separate one for business and school. Would be awesome if I could change it even if it was only allowed one time.

  19. It would be nice to turn on a feature to replace your handwrite inline with custom font you choose and replace it.

  20. When using the resize tool to resize images, stickers, text, handwriting etc… the resize tool anchors from the centre so when you pull it down at the bottom it will also shoot up at the top. This makes it hard to get it to the exact size you want as you can’t predict exactly half of how much bigger you want it if that makes sense. Basically just have options on all four sides to pull out or push in the image etc…
