  4. As part of my workflow, I am quite regularly wanting to insert a new page with just parts of what is on on my current page.

    There are two ways I can accomplish this at the moment:

    1. Open the multi-page view, tap edit, select the current page, tap copy, tap done, tap +, tap the + in a circle where I want to insert the page, tap "Paste Copied Pages", tap done, select my newly inserted page, use the lasso tool to select the parts of the pages I do not want to keep, and delete them.

    2. Use the lasso…

  7. I purchased GoodNotes 5, but to my disappointment, it had no Handwriting Recognition support for Hebrew at all.

    Handwriting Recognition for Hebrew is critical to my use case, and without it, I have to use another program and recommending it over yours to my students.

    Hopefully, it will be added before the beginning of the semester.

    As a starting point, even partial support would be sufficient.

    thank you for understanding.

    Thanks for the suggestion. For now, please try opening the same document in two windows side by side. You can drag and drop the page from thumbnail view to the side and navigate both windows independently.

  9. It would be great to have automatic color changing toggle for dark mode. Adobe Acrobat as such feature.

  10. In my work I write a lot in both Italian and English. This is somewhat a problem because handwriting recognition in GoodNotes seems to work only for one language at a time. And the switch between languages takes time. have you planned future improvements of the app to address the needs of people working in multi-lingual environments?

  11. After many years of use I can only say that for me the only missing feature is the ability to convert Greek handwritten notes into text. Is there any chance of this coming to GoodNotes any time soon?

  15. Enable GoodNotes to support the formats epub for e-books. We can totally utilize the use of this app for note-taking whilst reading an e-book in epub format (and the likes).

  16. A stabilizer setting for pens in GoodNotes!

    Currently, when you go look on the GoodNotes App, on the Apple App Store, the previews show that you're able to easily draw these examples and diagrams for notes.. but it's VERY difficult to do in reality.

    If you talk to any Digital Artist, they'll tell you a stabilizer one of the most important features to have in any drawing program.

    I'm not trying to draw anything fancy, really. It's just really hard to draw remotely anything without the lines being jagged.

    More flexibility with the brush settings, in general, would help users…

  17. In goodnotes, we can only create outlines of the same level. For example, the first section in the first chapter of notes should belong to the first chapter, but we can't create outlines with levels. Outlines are more like a directory, which is very inconvenient without level management. This demand is very urgent and we hope to get attention.
