  1. It would be very practical to be able to choose the tools that are associated with the double-tap function of the Apple Pencil. Simple yet very efficient feature for a smoother workflow while writing.

  2. Making the tabs bar condensed while writing so that thereโ€™s more room on the screen for the paper. This would also make the new toolbar more useful!

  3. Add the ability for the Shortcuts app on iPadOS to open multiple selected documents simultaneously in Split View.

    This feature would allow users to choose specific files and define them as a paired workspace within a Shortcut. When the Shortcut is run, the selected documents would automatically open side-by-side in Split View, eliminating the need to manually open and Split View for each file.

  4. Because many teachers speak quickly, the best way to take notes in class is to upload the PDF slides and annotate them directly. Most of the time, these slides are in landscape orientation (wider than they are tall). However, when you want to write your own summaries or do homework, it's much more convenient to use portrait orientation (taller than they are wide).
    Currently, every time I add a new page after the slides, I have to manually rotate it, which is very annoying. It would be so much quicker if I only had to rotate the first added page,โ€ฆ

  6. I recently started using Goodnotes in my classroom as a replacement for worksheets under a document camera. While Goodnotes works very well overall, I noticed a critical limitation for classroom use:
    When using a document camera, students can see my hand and the pen. This provides natural orientation: they immediately recognize when I start writing, where I am on the page, and when they should follow along.
    In Goodnotes, this orientation is missing. Students often do not immediately realize that writing has started.
    Students cannot clearly see where on the page I am currently writing or drawing. This is especiallyโ€ฆ

    Hello,

  8. TextDoc

    I have been a GoodNotes user for several years throughout my undergraduate time and plan to continue using it through graduate school. I have fallen in love with the TextDoc option, but there are several issues. First, when exporting a TextDoc to a PDF, there is very little room on the "printed" PDF, especially if any headings are used, which is an integral feature for lengthy notes. If DevOps has any way to ensure the headings are kept while the overall size is altered when imported. This could be solved by changing the Text or Font size. Second, anotherโ€ฆ

  9. With every update, I feel like Iโ€™m losing out on convenience.
    Now the Lasso tool โ€“ one of my most-used tools โ€“ has been pushed even further down the context menu, in favour of other fancy tools that I never use.
    The Lasso tool must be right at the top of the list!

    As not all of us have the same needs: please let us customise the context menu so that everyone can adapt it to their personal requirements. Thank you very much!

  12. Currently, the app offers three pen stroke thicknesses (thin, medium, thick). It would be useful to allow users to add one or two additional stroke options for greater flexibility in note-taking and diagramming.

    I think a lot of students would benefit from this option especially students who zoom in to write on tiny organ pictures and re-zoom out for a different font size, like in my case.

    The idea is for those who want to add they can who donโ€™t want then nothing changes.

    Best regards,
    Hasan ataba

  13. I used to make perfect stars with a ball pen whenever I drew a wobbly star and then locked my pen in place for it to snap into a perfect star shape. But with the new update you guys for no reason at all ruined this for me. Whenever I try to make the same star shape it clicks into a CIRCLE OR A SQUARE FOR NO APPARENT REASON AT ALL even though what I drew has NOTHING to do with an as simple shape as circle or a square. Please fix this I can not study as efficiently asโ€ฆ

  14. The current screenshot feature captures all notes on the page. I wish to add an option to capture only the background.

    Also, it would be easier to have an option like "screenshot and copy", the current workflow is too complex: screenshot, share, copy, and close the preview...

    So two features: "screenshot background", "screenshot and copy".

  16. Many things are are already moveable to accomodate different writing styles and workflows, which is amazing. That being said, even though I find that the minimap in the whiteboard is a very important and useful tool, as a lefty I am constantly hitting it accidentally (even when it is minimized) and it can be quite frustrating to have this be an issue when this has a solution that shows up in other parts of the UI/UX. I was suprised to find out that the minimap is locked in place in the bottom left corner even though it appears to beโ€ฆ

  19. I would love it if in the outlines menus if we could add multiple pages to one specific outline so I donโ€™t have 5 pages with the same outline name and I could have all 5 pages under one category. I feel that it would make the outlines much cleaner and more helpful when finding a certain page in that catagory.
