  1. 언제부터인가 텍스트가 제대로 작성되지 않고 작성시에 블러처리된듯이 보입니다. 텍스트 주변 여백부도 너무 커졌어요. 작성완료후에 글은 잘 보이지만 작성시에는 글씨가 잘 보이지않습니다. 갑작스런 변화로 어딘가 에러가 나거나 했을것같은데 수정요청드립니다. 잘사용하던중에 갑작스런 상황에 어플삭제 후 재설치도 해보고 해볼만한건 다 해봤는데도 그대로입니다.

  4. I would appreciate if I could use the built-in timer without having it taking space of my paper. But if I do so, I don't get reminded when the timer stops... So please add a setting, where I can turn on a alert sound. Keep up the good work!

  5. With "Auto backup", it is possible to sync my documents as pdfs to my Google drive, which is really useful.
    But this also drains battery.
    I would like an option so that I can decide when to push my documents to Google Drive, instead of app doing it whenever it wants while I'm using it.

    Currently, I just disable auto backup and turn it back on every week, but this means it re-uploaded my entire library, which can take upwards of 40 minutes.

  8. I would like to write two notes at the same time. I will split the screen so that I can look at the notes and write another note.For example, I want to look at one notepad and start writing other notes in another notebook, but without splitting the screen it’s very difficult.

  9. I am currently using the GoodNotes 7 beta version, and I noticed that when working on text documents, there is no option to zoom in or out of the page. This makes it inconvenient to adjust the view depending on the amount of content or personal preference. It would be very helpful if a zoom in/out feature could be added for text documents.

  11. It would be great if transcriptions could be in "tabs" that you can extend and collapse. I've noticed that when I make multiple transcriptions in a notebook they all tend to get mixed into one large transcription. It would be great if they could be kept seperate and if we could copy the whole transcription of a single section/tab rather than everything that has been transcribed in the notebook.

    Hope that makes sense!

  13. Also, wenn man so ne neue Seite hinzufügen will, muss man immer das Format einstellen, das man haben will, wenn die Seite vorher nen anderes Format hatte. Also die Idee ist dann, dass man sich nen Format oder mehrere abspeichern kann und die dann auswählen kann, wenn man ne neue Seite hinzufügt. Liebe Grüße 😘

  14. Sometimes when you are doing past papers for exams or any work you may not have finished it or you want to come back to it.

    Maybe they could add like a little status icon (colours, or maybe icons) next to the documents title to indicate its status (done, not done, in progress) or maybe have it in another tab (status tab where you can see all your documents and its status and you can also change its status there?)

  15. When I search for a word in my Preview app, it shows every occurrence in the document. However, in GoodNotes, the same word is sometimes missed, even though the file is an OCR-enabled PDF. It would be great if the search feature in GoodNotes could be improved to match the accuracy and reliability of other apps.

  16. I used to be able to open two goodnotes apps at once, but that feature has disappeared over the summer. Every time I try to open two, it just reloads the first. This is very frustrating as I take all my notes on goodnotes, so when I try to make study notes I have to download all my notes and open them up separately. Additionally, I've noticed that my Windows Surface Pen isn't working as well on the app. Text will be delayed (and curves will appear smaller or letters will turn out jargon). My erase feature (from the back…

  17. Command + Up key (Cmd + ↑) should bring the user to the top of the screen and Command + Down key (Cmd + ↓) to the bottom.

  18. The app is nice, but worst of all, there's no visible backup option, as confirmed by other users. I hope they fix the issue of not being able to back up or control it soon, otherwise I'll have to change the app. I'm using it on a Samsung TAB S9. It also lacks Polish language support. I'll change my rating if they add the backup option.

  20. For each of my classes I like making a 'Lecture' and 'Practice' notebooks, however when I have multiple open I can't tell which lecture Notebook is for which class without clicking on them.

    In order to remedy this I think it would be a good idea for GoodNotes to display the folder name the notebook is in when there's multiple notebooks with the same name opened.

    For example:

    Instead of:

    Lecture | Lecture | Practice

    It would say:

    Lecture - /STA256 | Lecture - /MAT232 | Practice
