Suggested Feature: Integrated Calculator and Scratch Paper
Hello Goodnotes Team,
I’d love to suggest a feature that could make Goodnotes even more useful, especially for students and professionals:
- Integrated Calculator
A calculator that can be freely moved anywhere on the screen, so it’s always available right where you need it.
- It can be collapsed into a small icon and expanded again at any time, so it never gets in the way of note-taking.
- Beyond basic arithmetic, it would be very helpful if the calculator could handle functions such as x², √, fractions, and potentially even simple scientific functions (like sin, cos, log).
- This would make Goodnotes a…

Support for STEM Students (LaTex, Codeblocks, Circuit blocks)
I know a lot of engineering students that use this app, but have to use many other apps as well to take coding, circuit or higher level math classes. I use https://www.stempad.com/editor but would rather use GoodNotes6 because of all your other great features. The code and circuit block don't even need to be functional, just formatted like code and maybe helps you code like VS Code based on the language. It just takes a lot of time going back and forth between apps.

Whiteboard Connectors for Sticky Notes
Ability to connect sticky notes with connectors to enable true mindmapping experience.
Currently it's available only for shapes, which allows building quick diagrams and flowcharts. But it's not powerfull and flexible enough for true mindmapping, which requires sticky notes and content that they store.
Apps like Miro, Apple Freeform have this feature, for example.3 votes -
MORE options for study sets please
As a student I very much miss some options for the study set feature:
For example needed are features like…
- overviewing ALL of the study sets
- Moving cards from one study set to another/putting sets together
- Changing layouts for flashcards
- Import study sets in bulk from e.g. CSV files
- Plan when which study set should be learned
Use tags in study sets and filter for them
Choose which study sets are currently interesting and a „pause“ function

Free rotate pages
FREE ROTATE ON PAGES!!!!
Moving the physical iPad from side to side is NOT efficient. Being able to freely rotate a page to write at an angle would be SO much more helpful, when taking notes, doodling, or simply to look at the notes from a different angle.... I really would love to see this implimented as this is the biggest flaw goodnotes has as a program!

Set default font, line spacing & size for handwriting conversion
I love using the handwriting-to-text feature in Goodnotes!
However, I’d really appreciate the ability to set a default font, line spacing and text size for converted handwriting.
Right now, I have to manually change it every time, which interrupts my workflow.This feature would make the writing and editing process much smoother – especially for people who use Goodnotes regularly for structured notes.
Thank you for considering this!

The ability to draw a line and automatically see its real-world length based on a set scale.
Dear GoodNotes Team,
I am a regular user of GoodNotes and I truly appreciate its intuitive interface and powerful tools for working with PDFs and handwritten notes. However, there is one feature that I—and many others in fields like architecture, engineering, and construction—am missing:
👉 The ability to draw a line and automatically see its real-world length based on a set scale.
Currently, it is only possible to measure distances using the ruler tool and manually set a scale. But when I draw a freehand line (without the ruler), GoodNotes does not display the length of that line. This makes…

Notes taking for Engineering students / professionals
Being an engineering professional this apps is not very conversant in taking Engg notes. It is requested to incorporate following.
1. Either allow to paste tables from excel sheets which should be editable or develop a tool to create table easily.
2. Allow to embed word file into Goodnotes. Also allow subscripts and superscripts like that in word.
3. Develop or create symbols to insert scientific, maths, geometry, Greek small
& capital.
4. Also insert function .
5. Most important while writing maths formulae it should be very easy and smooth. At present most of the time Goodnotes do not…3 votes -
Would anyone find value in being able to flip or control the transparency of an object?
When creating documents, I have wanted to include a picture behind my words without obstructing them. I’ve also wanted to flip the picture for a cleaner look. These are 2 features I often use in Canva and forget I don’t have the ability in Goodnotes. I love this program and enjoy the ability it provides to be creative!

carry over text boxes to next page
since you don't have the option to have main text go into the left hand column of the cornell notes, I have no option but to use the text box option. so when I am trying to copy and paste my 80 key words into the document I have to waste 2 hours manually breaking them up and putting them into each page since the text boxes don't just automatically carry over. completely ridiculous and suchhhhhhh a waste of time its driving me up the wall. or at least jus have the option for the main texting mode to work…

Resize image from corner or one side only
When resizing images in GoodNotes, the image always scales from the center. This makes it very difficult to align multiple imported images like sheet music pages. Please allow resizing from just one side or corner (e.g., like in Keynote or Pages).
This would make GoodNotes much more usable for music editors, designers, and people who work with imported documents. Thank you!

Translate
Dear GoodNotes Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I’d like to suggest a feature that I believe would greatly enhance the user experience, especially for students and multilingual users.
Currently, the text selection menu includes useful options like “Copy,” “Highlight,” and “Comment.” It would be incredibly helpful to have a “Translate” option integrated directly into this menu. This would allow users to quickly understand unfamiliar terms or phrases without needing to switch between apps or use split-screen mode.
Such a feature would be especially valuable in academic and professional contexts, where users frequently engage with texts in multiple…

Sorting by date of creation
I would love to be able to sort my notes by the date of their creation. This would help organizing my Notes with the same chronology like in a school class for example. Before exams, I could learn topics in the exact same order, as they were presented in class.

Add Page-Linked Voice Recording Functionality
Currently, the voice recording feature in Goodnotes records audio across the entire document without linking the recording to a specific page. This makes it time-consuming to locate which part of the recording corresponds to which page or note.
Proposed Improvement:
Introduce a feature that allows users to record audio directly linked to a specific page, similar to how comments or annotations are added.Suggested Functionalities:
1. On each page, provide a button to start/stop a recording specific to that page.
2. Once recorded, show a small microphone icon or indicator on that page to signal that a recording exists there.…3 votes -
OTHER FOLDER COLOuRS
As the title says it’s frustrating that there are limited colours you can choose from and there is no way of customising it, it would really be a goos, aesthetic and useful feature to add

The Good Note UI is designated blue by default, and I want to change the UI with various colors. I hope they add theme features like this.

Enable Masking Tape Functionality While in Pointer Mode
I would like the ability to open and close the masking tape feature while using pointer mode. I often want to utilize masking tape during classes and presentations while simultaneously pointing with the pointer. However, at present, it is necessary to switch from pointer mode to pen tool mode to use the masking tape, which is cumbersome. I would greatly appreciate it if you could consider this improvement.
