  1. Description:
    I suggest adding features to GoodNotes that provide greater control and flexibility in creating notes and designs. These improvements include:

    Precise Alignment and Equitable Distribution: Adding a contextual menu that allows aligning objects (such as text boxes and stickers) to the left, top, right, bottom, vertical center, and horizontal center. Additionally, enabling equitable distribution and equidistant alignment between objects would be fantastic!

    Object Grouping: Allowing grouping objects to manipulate them as a unit, facilitating the organization and editing of multiple elements collectively.

    Precise Size Definition: Implementing the ability to precisely define the size of objects by entering specific values…

  2. Drag is very weird and hard to move around. Also, when I logged back in, all the colors disappeared, so I had to re-enter a new color again, which was very cumbersome. Page loading time is very slow and sometimes it erase some parts of my writing.
    Lastly, when typing, words are omitted due to buffering or the same words come out continuously, making it inconvenient to take notes.
    Why is it still different from IOS? As I know, it's been almost half a year since the Android version was released, but there are no additional functions like the IOS…

  3. Goodnotes should have full screen presentation mode, specially with the ability to hide toolbar with one tap.

  5. Can you please enable handwritten note-taking and inserting images in the “add comment” section?
    Typing the comment takes time and limits the note-taking experience to the keyboard tools. The notes also all look the same (there’s no bold or underline or change font options).
    This would allow a smoother and faster experience while using this option. It also combines between the sticky notes/post-it ideas and the already present add comment feature.
    I prefer the add comment in that it takes less space and thus allows a neater page.

  6. The history buttons are positioned too close to the Library View button. I usually miss clicked them so instead of going back to my previous edits, I totally LOST them all!

    • Maybe position them to the bottom as shown in the attachment?
    • And/or make the documents preserve their editing history

    Be mindful about handedness though.

  8. Move the undo location on the toolbar. The undo icon on the toolbar is directly below the library icon in the NAV bar. I always tap the Undo button by mistake when trying to return to the Libray of my Documents. I have lost many final changes when I try to return to the library.

  10. Ca serait cool de pouvoir realiser nos tableaux.
    Le mieux serait d’avoir l’émoticone au niveau de la barre du haut (à côté du symbole de stylo, gomme, laser, …)

  11. I would like to be able to create a general notebook "template" of PDFs/notes for my students and share a copy with them. Then they have it on their own devices and can edit/write in the notes as we go. Every student would have their own copy of the master notebook, but edit in their own ways.

  13. Hallo, es wäre toll wenn ihr bei den Lernsets unter „Smartes Lernen“ die Funktion hinzufügen könntet, dass man die Vokabeln auch von Antwort auf Frage sich abfragen kann. Bisher geht das nur mit mit der Funktion „Üben“, da wird man aber nicht abgefragt. Es wäre sehr toll, wenn ihr das machen könntet! LG

  14. A Support Line would be great you guys don’t offer much customer service. Tickets that no one’s seems to respond to doesn’t help at all. You guys can’t provide an amazing app and then disrespect the people who use it by not supporting then through programming issues and the everyday tech support that everyone NEEDS!

  15. Every little or big news has always been useful, but I beg you, make it possible to insert long or short notes via pop ups that open and close, to put wherever you want, in the text or in the images, it would be fantastic. A thousand thanks. A student who loves you.

  16. When you often use the Ruler, you may struggle with the Possibility to adjust the angle of the Ruler. It would be a tremendous feature when you hold the button for Angle and it shows you a list for some values(0°,15°,30°,45°,60°,75°,90°) and has the option to add some customs)

  17. Open the same notebook on two different tabs to make switching between views easier. Instead of tapping the edit icon then the hyperlink, only tap the tab at the top.

  19. I would like to change paper models from GoodNotes Std to A4 in order to print an entire Document I wrote. (applying this mod to every page)
    At the moment you can only do it by switching models PAGE BY PAGE.

  20. When lassoing a photo I can long press and drag to copy it and then drop it to paste, it would be amazing if you could do the same with handwriting instead of rewriting the whole thing
