Flashcards from notes directly
Since it takes a lot of time to write flashcards by hand, it would be amazing to have a feature to create flashcards from the notes directly.
GoodNotes already possesses the ability to recognize the written text. It would be great to add the option to create flashcards by "highlighting"/marking the text you want to create a flashcard with and the app creates the flashcard automatically.
I feel like this would help a lot of students who have to read a lot so they can save time in making flashcards.22 votes -
Backlinks
There are many proposals for hyperlinks between pages within a notebook or between pages in different notebooks.
This augments that idea with backlinks, such that each time a hyperlink is created from page A to page B, a backlink is implicitly created from page B to page A - so that it is easy to navigate back, as is currently available in Notion and Roam Research.

Moveable Tool Bar (i.e. ability to put the tool bar on the side or bottom of the screen)
I'd love to have the option to put the tool bar (the bar with the pen options, eraser, lasso, colors, highlighter etc.) on the side of my screen or maybe the bottom. It gets a little frustrating to always have to reach up to change my pen color or to switch to the eraser. It's much more natural to have the tool bar on the side so that you can easily reach it while you're taking notes!

Copy screenshot directly to clipboard
When you use the lasso tool to take a screenshot, it would be nice if it copied it directly to your clipboard so you didn’t have to do ~~> share ~~> copy ~~> exit. I often need to screenshot lecture slides, and doing this series of motions repeatedly takes up a lot of time in real time as the professor is speaking. Having s feature where it a lasso screenshot is be automatically copied would be great

Show Date Created as well as Date Last Modified
This is not a major, groundbreaking change, but I think it’d be incredibly useful for some use cases if GoodNotes showed the date that notes were created as well as when they were last modified.
I often want to go back to notes that were created around a particular date, such as, say, November 2016. Once I make a change to an old note I currently have no way of knowing when it was originally created. I do a lot of planning that requires knowing when documents were created, which is making me regret having stored my docs in GoodNotes…

Photo Alignment for Borders of Photos
is there any sort of implementation you guys are able to do that allows users to align photos that are uploaded/inserted into the app? Either snapping photos to each other or just knowing when the border of one photos is aligned to another - maybe even to the middle/center of document as well? Screenshot is attached, see blue lines for example!

Add fill in for highlighter
Please add a fill in for highlighters. It will be helpful for people who use highlighters for planners to mark timings.
When I draw a rectangle using the highlighter, hope that it could fill the inside as well

flash cards improvement
Please improve the flash card tool. It would be very useful if there were more options to it.
Please add an option to see a seperate stack of flash cards you got wrong. Or any other way to review those flash cards seperated from the ones you got right.

Chisel tip highlighter
Add a highlight option to have a round tip or chisel tip. The chisel tip would be the exact same as the current highlighter but it would have straight boxed ends instead of round ends.

Allow to move handwriting and images between pages when using the lasso tool
It would be great if one could use the lasso tool between pages instead of having to copy and paste to move notes/images from one page to another.

Image occlusion
The new flash card feature is terrific! Thank you! I have been a Anki user for a long time because of their image occlusion add on. It allows you to make a flash card from any image, which has been super useful to increase productivity and minimize time spent making cards. Anki did not have a convenient draw function. Goodnotes has solved that problem for me.
A easy fix would be a solid fill in the shape tool. This would allow image occlusion and make the flash card template unstoppable. I know dental and medical students would really appreciate this…

Please sync custom colours across pen and highlighting tools.
Please allow users to be able to have the function to sync their custom colours across pen, highlighter, text box to allow users to use the same custom colour and do not need to add again in other tools.

Margins for handwriting
Please add the ability to set margins on both sides of handwriting paper. The auto advance works great, but since you cannot set the margin on the right side of the paper, the handwriting often goes right to the edge of the paper before the auto-return takes you to the next line.

OCR image to text converter for searches
Either code your own or employ a OCR image to text converter. As a student, a lot of the content of my notes are pictures of diagrams or other tables with text. The text on these photos aren’t recognized by the search function but this would be greatly beneficial for being able to find the notes that I need.

Import a whole Folder Structure including Documents
I would like to import a Folder Structure, including Subfolders and Documents and find that structure represented in GN5 after the import. This would make GN5 a much easier to use Documents Management System if one has a lot of Documents before switching to GN5. Currently one has to create the whole Folder structure manually and import the Documents for each Subfolder separately.

Small, movable toolbar
Either a second toolbar like the existing one (but much smaller, less tools, and movable on the entire display) or a movable „tool-point“ which opens some customized tools.

Schedule automatic backup or offer cooldown period
The current automatic backup attempts to backup your files after every edit and thus (based on my settings) attempts to render to pdf after every single edit. This constant rendering and uploading rapidly drains the iPad battery to the point where I lose about 20-30% per hour of use and as a side effect makes the device very hot and uncomfortable to use.
Instead, it would be good to have an option to either schedule a backup (i.e. once an hour, once a day, etc) or have a cooldown option where a document won't be backed up until say 5…

Insert live links
I am using GoodNotes as a teacher to present my lessons. It would be wonderful if I could I insert live links into my goodnotes page so I can click on it to show a video or math application like Desmos. Are either of these features in the works?

Insert page of specific size
Please can you add an option where you can customise the size of the page being added? This will be especially useful when adding a new page to an already existing PDF that is not the same size as one of the template options. What would be even better would be if the app could detect the size of the current paged in use (like with the “use current template”) option, but then it lets you insert either a blank or a lined page.

Grouping of outlines/ bookmarks
I would like to use GoodNotes as my bullet journal but sometimes it can still be a bit tedious (maybe it’s just mentally lol) and I wish that we can actually group outlines together.
So for example I can create bookmarks for “Quotes (life)” and “Quotes (friendship)” then I can group them together as “Quotes”, instead of having to scroll through the lists to find each quote page separately.
