  1. I use GoodNotes screenshot-feature on a daily basis to create drawings for my exercises & summaries for uni and it would be very useful if I could export into SVG -> better quality while maintaining a small footprint.

    This should illustrate my idea:

  2. When reading a pdf, there are little points that you have to mention in addition. An ability to have a small window/ note beside the main pdf to mention them would be amazing. every time you go over that page, it would tell you that there you have x number of notes on this, or better, it would highlight those lines so you know that there is additional info with those

    The other thing that could be added is the ability to connect boxes to each other like in liquid text

  3. During lectures ... when the speaker is going over an outline and speaking I want to use the window tool to write my own notes, but be able to only switch my pen to a highlighter and highlight the outline without closing the window tool so I can quickly switch back to my pen and not lose the location of my window tool and where I was writhing my notes. I would use this all the time but I’ve had to switch back and forth from x-ing out of the window tool then highlighting my outline then re-opening the window…

  4. Right now, I can only see 1 page at a time if I zoom all the way out. Can we have extended zoom so we can see 2+ pages at a time? On a larger screen, it'll make better use of the space. As of now, I just get a big blown up view of a single page.

  5. first idea:
    One may think. The share of the target group that uses KEYBOARD shortcuts most probably uses also text boxes (are terrible due to lack of formatink like notability but that idea is already in the top listing her). But when you are „in a textbook“ you cannot hit shortcuts nor can you tab out of a text. Why not make „ESC“ let the textbook unselect or press ⌘ to force other shortcuts. sometime i will change text box mode to pen mode but the short cut does not work. I have to tap with the finger out of…

  6. It would be a great idea to implement a Marketplace with in app purchases like in Notability, that way everyody could customize goodnotes for his own use of the app. I think that would solve many common requests, for example the need of more pens and stylus, graphics tools or even math recognizing features.

  8. It would be nice if the zoom window can be put on the left side(for left handers) or right side of the screen on landscape mode instead of on the bottom.

  10. On IPad Pro, sometime the selection made with the pencil can be deleted using the Delete key on the Magic Keyboard, some other times it won’t work for no reason. Would be nice to make it work all the time.

  14. Please provide a way to decrease the size of the PDF's. I mark student work all the time sent to me from iOS devices - the only ones that I can not seem to decrease the size of using every technique in my arsenal are ones from GOODNOTES - inside I am saying, "BADNOTES, BADNOTES" - please fix this - thanks. For example the builtin DOC scanner in the iOS notes creates PDF's that are a very reasonable size. Thanks

  16. So the idea
    Is if you a pdf
    With an image
    You have a the new
    Flash card tool option
    You can select a text
    To make it a close or flash card
    Or an image to occlude it
    Now once that is done

    Just double tap the icon on tool bar to enter into flash card mode

    Once you revised your answer

    Move on to another topic

    I have loads of idea
    And would love to work on your team

    I am a surgeon from India
    I don’t need money or anything of sorts just collaborate and some shoutouts

  17. Sehr sinnvoll wäre für mich, wenn ich ein Kamera-Fenster aufziehen könnte, in dem das Kamera-Livebild gezeigt wird. Sehr sinnvoll in der Schule, wenn etwas demonstriert werden soll und gleichzeitig wichtige Inhalte zu sehen sein sollen.
