  2. It would be great to have a feature where we can customize each pen/highlighter sizes depending on notebook/documents. For example, I use different pen sizes when taking notes but different pen/highlighter sizes for lecture notes since they use different sized documents (letter, A4, B4, etc.) So rather than going back and forth, adjusting sizes, I think it would be better to customize accordingly.

  3. I think that actually the addition of audios files inside Goodnotes is impossible, and that could be good for the users if this improve exists.

  4. It will be so helpful to insert a blank space at a choose spot. That way, I can just import my problem set as pdf and insert a blank space, it'll save a lot of time to screenshot and copy past to a new page. Please!!!

  6. At the end of each stroke, there is some motion smoothing mechanism in place, which creates unwanted curves. It would be great if we could get more control over the motion smoothing feature, like increasing it's intensity, or turning it on and off whenever required.

  7. The typing experience in general needs to be better, it needs to be closer to Word. We have to be able to choose the size of the fonts, the margins of the page, the interline space, etc…
    The pointed list need to be better, now it can’t change the number if we want to and it starts back to 1.
    If we’re able to better the typing feature to be more consistent and interchangeable with the pen writing, it would be an almost perfect app. As in now I need to switch to Word for some important features that I…

  8. Hi Goodnotes community,
    I would like to ask if could be possible to add an extension of lasso tool, that I would refer to as a "Lasso linker". I think this would be certainly helpful for note taking of STEM subjects, but I'm pretty confident other people would benefit of this tool as well. The way I intend for this tool to work is simply by selecting the "Lasso linker" from the toolbar and then one would just need to select the first and second item in order to create an internal link between the two items (or an internal…

  9. It would be really usefull for language learners to be able to use the flashcards in both ways. That means that we could change the settings and get questioned by the answers.
    Example: I have a flashcard. As a question i put in „How are you?“ and as an answer I put in „Wie geht es dir?“ (German). Now I could use it the regular way and i see the english side first and have to find the german out and then there could be the second way (the idea) where i change the setting and see the german sentence…

  14. The ask Goodnotes feature has so much potential but is so limited in his uses right now. Multiple studies show that infos hold longer to memory when you tried to retrieve them. That is the case even if you didn’t know the answer at the time of the question. If we could use the Ask feature to create multiple questions on our document it could be so beneficial. Right now the fact that you cannot chose a segment on which creating questions or ask the app to create more is a shame.

  15. Currently, if you’re recording in one window and want to open another document, you can’t without stopping the recording or without having the windows open before you start recording.

    Options for this:
    1. Add a quick note switcher or something like that so that you can easily open another document as a new tab.
    2. Allow the ability to open a new window of the app. Currently if you try to open a new window, it’ll automatically switch to the note that is actively recording.

    Use case: recording a lecture in your lecture notes and opening a textbook or another…

  16. When using the search (find) feature, the highlighted text appears in a soft yellow color, making it hard to spot, especially if I’ve already highlighted other text.

    Please allow users to choose the highlight color in the search feature. The current dull yellow is difficult to see, and I’d prefer bold colors for better and faster visibility.”

  18. Currently when you are highlighting or using the eraser , the tapes can not be toggled to be transparent and back again. You have to select the pen or tape tool to do that. It would be way easier if you could also toggle the tape on and off while using the highlighter and the eraser .please see if that could be done. Thanks.

  19. I wish the sidebar when looking at your documents, when using the iPad, could be permanently closed & only open when I decide to hit the icon. It’s really annoying when I open my app & this sidebar is taking up a quarter of my app, all my files shift when I close it.
    Don’t get me wrong it’ll stay closed for a while, but if I don’t use the app for a little bit & go back in, the sidebar is open again. This isn’t the worst thing, but when it does happen, it’s a neusance.
