  1. In a Text Docs when I use the color highlighter I cannot select the same colors as in a handwritten note or where I insert a text box. In text docs there is a very limited number of highlighters and the color cannot be customized.

  2. Create a PM/To Do Management template that has the ability to create custom fields with dropdown lists.

    For Example:

    Auto Date Created

    PM/To Do Name - Conduct Ongoing Training

    Assigned To <Multi Picklist & Drop Down Options of names we created in settings) - It would also be great to be able to assign this to people in a MS Exchange Server or Slack Server (we use both)

    Note: We need to identify training refresher topics.

    Due Date: Optional field that can integrate back to MS Exchange Calendar, Outlook 365 calendar, Thunderbird calendar, and Google.

    Status: Dropdown of predefined fields…

  3. I've had to move to OneNote (which I am not fond of) because I am the only one using a Mac. I wanted to create an Agenda where I could tag people to assign them to tasks. However, I was not able to get the sharing/collaboration to work because all the other team members are using Windows. I need to be able to share from Mac to Windows and Windows to Mac while allowing live collaboration where we can all make edits and share updates.

  4. When using the Squeeze feature on Apple Pencil Pro, adding a feature that lets you “scroll” through your saved preset colors the same way we can scroll through the tools would be useful, instead of only having access to the first 3 colors.

  5. It would be great if you can edit imported pdfs directly in the app. Ex. if professors have mistake on slides it would be nice to be able to erase it rather than just scribbling on it, which just makes it look messy and takes up space on page unnecessarily

  7. 사진을 올릴때 그냥 큰 이미지를 바로 올리는 것이 아닌, 모달(팝업) 형태로도 올릴 수 있게 해주세요.

    링크추가 기능을 사용할때 나오는 오브젝트 같은걸 클릭하면 등록한 이미지가 모달(팝업)의 형태로 나오도록 구현하고, 빈공간이나 x표시를 누르면 모달이 사라지도록 구현하면 좋을 것 같아요.

    그러면 많은 개념들을 정리할때 큰 이미지나 다양한 이미지를 하나의 페이지에 깔끔하게 정리할 수 있을 것 같아요.

    감사합니다. 좋은 하루 되세요.

  8. the sticky notes are searchable while expanded...but the instant you collapse them the content can't be searched..Also image addition to the sticky notes should be feature. And the text in the added images(screenshots) should be searchable as well.

  9. A feature should be added to be able to scroll past the edge of a page when zoomed in. Right now since the page snaps to the sides of my ipad, i find that when im writing bullet points or words right on the edge the writing isnt interpreted and i end up have half letters or no writing at all on the sides.

  10. While writing down reference details of the contents being written in the notes, the undo/redo button often comes above it in the top right/left. Hiding it while using the gestures for undo/redo is a better option in this case.

  12. I'm always running out of characters in my whiteboard. I love the infinity page for studying for big concepts or exams but I hit the character limit every time I study. Please please allow for more writing so that the warning stops getting in the way. Please make the infinity board actually infinite - It would be life changing. Sincerely, a chemistry student.

  13. I have been using Goodnotes for several years as my main teaching tool. I regularly project my iPad screen for several hours in class and work live on the material. With Goodnotes 6 this worked reliably. The page was consistently sharp, even while editing.

    Since version 7.0.0 this has clearly changed. I am currently on version 7.0.46 and the issue is still there.

    What I observe is the following. Images that are not selected become visibly blurry. As soon as I select an image, it immediately turns sharp again. Text behaves in the opposite way. While I am typing in…

  14. Please consider adding an option to switch between a fixed and floating toolbar. The floating toolbar is distracting during long study sessions and slows down workflow. A fixed toolbar was much more efficient and comfortable to use. Having both options would greatly improve the user experience.

  15. As a medical student I often take photos of lecture slides from various angles, currently cropping these images results in distorted or skewed perspectives, leaving me with “uncroppable” parts.

    I would love to see a feature similiar to the Notes app in IOS when scanning a document, it would help me make better notes for me.

    Best regars, Josef.

  16. There is no feature of changing page templates all together,we have to change separately,this is annoying.Another thing is that pdf quality can't be determined,if there will be option for changing quality of extracted pdf, it will be more good,
    And please add a calculator in the app.During extraction of pdf,page range should be added.

    Also there is problem in recording procedure,once open a record,it becomes minimized,can’t take full screen again.Again once I tap on one of my annotation and select play recording,there is no slide bar appears and can’t close,pause etc which is annoying.please fix these problems

  20. Palm rejection often fails. If you are annotating with a pen over a text box it constantly selects the text box (Sometime while I'm writing a word!). There used to be a setting where you could prevent different objects from being selected unless that specific tool was being use (i.e. you could only select a text box when you were using the text box tool)
