  1. Just like how we can undo a stroke through the Apple Pencil pro palette, can we get both the undo and redo? I tend to accidentally undo too many strokes and it would be nice to have the redo function right there rather than reaching up to the toolbar. I know it’s not a critical feature but would be nice for efficiency! Thank you!

  2. I'm using the Good Note 6 as an iPad, and I usually take a lot of notes. Please add an Apple Pencil tilt deactivation function in the standard pencil. I want to prevent the writing from getting thicker depending on the tilt because it's uncomfortable to take notes.

  5. Please change the flash card mode so we can have both writing mode (that is the mode that doesn’t require the text button in drawing mode) and at the same time paint over what is written.

    It should be the same as the normal notebooks but in the flash card mode.

    Also, it should have templates too, so you can change your flash cards background to for example squared or dotted paper.

    The uploaded file shows the features a flash card should have, the same ones as the notebook.

  8. Sometimes I’m searching for many different textbooks and I don’t know which is already opened. I really wish that you can choose to leave the tabs of textbooks open while navigating through all the folders. It would be also a lot easier to get back to the document without opening a second one or going back through folders to the one that’s already opened.

  11. Ask goodnotes is a good thing but needs some pretty obvious, low hanging improvements to be really usable.
    When you mark a text and do "ask good notes", and then you want to repeat it for a different text, there's no reason why you should tap ask goodnotes again, the selection inside the "ask goodnotes" tab should automatically get updated.

  13. I have all my notes for medical school on goodnotes. It often happens that we have the same topic in different subjects. So it would be so great if there was a „collections“ feature where I can collect all notes regarding a certain topic from different documents without it being removed from the original document or folder.
    Just like when marking certain pages of my document, there could be a function „add to collection“ and then these pages are shown when I open the collection, but also when I open the document.

  14. For me, it would be so important to just write down my extra-thoughts next to the actual page. It could be designed as „post it“ that os not on top of the page it self, but next to it, or just blanc space next to the actual page.
    I mean, theoretically there is unlimited space in Goodnotes, but I can‘t use it properly to write my thoughts right next to the related notes.
    In my opinion, it would be a pretty basic and uncomplicated feature that would make such a huge difference for me!

  15. Suggestion:

    GoodNotes currently offers a library of pre-designed templates for various purposes, such as meeting notes, to-do lists, and calendars. However, these templates are currently stored in a separate "Library" section, making it difficult to organize and access them alongside other documents.

    Proposed Solution:

    Implement a feature that allows users to organize purchased templates within their existing folder structure. This would enable users to:

    Create dedicated folders for specific template types: For example, a folder for "Meeting Notes Templates," another for "To-Do List Templates," etc.
    Easily access templates within their relevant folders: This would eliminate the need to navigate to…

  18. Include both an image and a text box on the front of a flashcard (e.g., an image with a related question) would greatly enhance flexibility!!

  19. I’ve been enjoying Goodnotes for most of my classes, however I find when it comes to taking notes for my electric circuit analysis classes, my drawing ability on a tablet starts to lack. So I suggest including symbols for general ECE components into the shapes library OR have an option to create custom shapes (more applicable than just ECE) that could be added to the shapes library. I enjoy the shape-snap function because it’s quick, and I need that for those fast paced lectures.

  20. It’s almost 2025 and GoodNotes has no feature to smooth and stabilize writing with the Apple Pencil. A lot of people prefer to hand write notes as using ‘scribble’ can be tedious at times, especially to those with poor handwriting which GoodNotes seems to ensure regardless of how well you write. I find it confusing that this wasn’t added a long time ago as it’s not a difficult feat compared to something like ‘word complete’ or other AI technology they have implemented is…
