  2. Is there a way that GoodNotes can automatically generate an index. For instance, if you put text on a specific place of a page, the notebook would automatically index.

  6. Scrolling notes page. So when you are writing, you don’t have to move your hand, the page moves instead. Penultimate has this feature, but you overall app is much better.

  7. please allow users to search Chinese notes, I need to take notes in Chinese, but it can only search English handwritten notes, which is inconvenient for foreigners.

  8. It would be so helpful if the app could open with all the notebooks I had open before I accidentally closed the app like Safari will reopen with all the tabs I had open. I work on several notebooks open at a time with work projects for different clients and the times I've closed out of the app entirely...they are not open when I restart the app.

  9. I use audio recordings to complete my notes afterwards. However, when I pause to start writing, the audio jumps to the beginning. In previous versions, as far as I remember, the audio stayed paused and my notes were added at that point, so when I replayed the audio, the notes appeared exactly where I wanted them to.

    (It works when the sidebar is large, but not when it is minimized)

  10. Hi GoodNotes team,

    I’m a heavy GoodNotes user on [iPad / Mac / iPhone] and I absolutely love using the app for studying and taking math/technical notes.

    I’ve noticed that GoodNotes currently doesn’t support inline LaTeX rendering in regular typed text (for example, writing $x^2 + y^2 = 1$ in a text box and having it render as nicely formatted math). I know you have great math / equation tools, but those generate separate equation objects rather than letting us mix math and normal text seamlessly in the same paragraph.

    For students and professionals in math, statistics, physics, engineering, and…

  11. I often use different sets of highlighting colors depending on what I’m working on. It would be very helpful if Goodnotes allowed users to create and save groups (or palettes) of highlight colors. That way, I wouldn’t need to manually change the highlight colors each time I switch tasks or subjects.

  12. Hello GoodNotes Team,

    I’ve recently noticed that in the latest version of GoodNotes for iPad or Iphone, the “full-page text input” mode no longer provides an option to change the font size and style.

    In previous versions, users were able to freely edit both the font size and font style while using full-page text mode. This was especially useful for multilingual users like me who often type in Chinese and Japanese — since these languages have different character heights, being able to adjust the font size ensures that the text aligns properly within each line.

    In the current version, however,…

  13. Please add a way to disable off device AI. Helps for knowing that data is secured and never sent off device to an unknown service. This would be helpful on a folder or document level. Some folks may have info is too sensitive to risk being scanned by any ai.

  14. Now that graphs are an option, I would like to see this being improved and features being added. I use GoodNotes for maths a lot and I would want to add two graphs in one graph view, set an interval to a graph, recolor the graphs, display intersections with other graphs or the x-axis, support for calculus and equation solving algorithms to find parameters for a polynomial, for instance. That would be beneficial.

  15. My idea is make the voice imported from voice memo or export it alone or within the file itself ( as in the pdf expert and document app ) as shown in the photo below

    Please voice this as it is crucial for every persone to save there files for the future

  18. Since the recent update, the laser got to make layers by each stroke. But it’s very inconvenient when I am writing letters, as the previous stroke shows up darker and the handwriting gets so messy.. please change it back so it can be used with one layer.

  19. I regularly use the shape to draw curved lines and then edit their shape to create larger, more complex shapes. Currently, that‘s next to impossible:
    - Editing points don‘t scale with zooming; especially when editing small lines, the points now cover up the lines entirely.
    - These lines are often glitched out and turn invisible while editing, especially when multiple lines are connected together.
    - After editing a line, Goodnotes automatically selects the lasso tool instead of the pen, making the drawing process very tedious.

    None of these issues occured with Goodnotes 6, I hope these issues are fixed with…

  20. When writing on a sticky note sometimes the text I wrote, not typed, will disappear behind the sticky note. I have to collapse the sticky note and reopen it in order for the text to show on top of the note.
