  1. I really like how the app looked in Goodnotes 5. I feel like the saturation of the colors in Goodnotes 5 was easier on my eyes. One of the reasons (if not, main) why I didn't switch to Goodnotes 6 was because of how deeply saturated the background and stuff looked. It is really harsh on my eyes, and the background is just straight black.

    Can there be a way to have the Goodnotes 5 saturation but still having the features of Goodnotes 6? Or perhaps adding an option to where you can adjust the saturation and color of it…

  2. Some pens support haptics like the microsoft surface pens. Goodnotes currently doesn't support this function and being able to write with haptic feedback on a pen that supports it would make writing feel much better.

  3. I would love a format that is similar to a word processor so when I add or delete a section on a page it automatically resizes the pages joining accordingly.

  4. If you press Clear page and quickly swipe, you actually clear the page you swiped to, and not the current page. This is very annoying, and almost never what you actually want. Can you make Clear page always clear the current page?

  6. It would help if one could move Cards between different decks. Merging multiple Card Decks into one session would also be helpful for the smart study Mode

  7. I've seen really mixed reviews—some people love it, while others say it's full of bugs and practically unusable. Is it still worth buying? Should I go for Goodnotes 5 instead? Or would another app be a better choice?

    For context, I'm in high school and plan to keep using it in snake game, where quick reflexes and a good appetite are all you need to dominate the leaderboard.

  8. As a high school teacher, it is important for us to let panel head acknowledge and check our markings on students' works. Also, collaborative work could not be done because each goodnotes classroom folder could not invite other teachers to edit or view content. This highly increases the inconvenience and decreases the possibility in transferring files to the other teachers concerned.

  9. Hello I really enjoy studyset feature.
    My only complaint is that the card is too small even in the landscape mode in ipad mini/pro.
    Could we make the interface like the one in the second screenshot?
    Also, it would be amazing if we can do pinch zoom in the studyset cards.

  10. If linked to the outline, the pages linked will guide me to the content I linked.
    Example for current situation:
    If I add one page before the content I wish to link on Document A, the current linked page will move to the next page from page 7 to page 8. And when I click on the link on Document B, it will still guide me to Document A, page 7. But the actual content has already moved to page 8 cause of adding a page.

  12. I like to use black background with white ink as primary ink (I believe it is good for my oled pixels).
    I like to use other colour inks here and there for emphasis.
    I would love a feature that turns things as follows

    Black background——————> White background
    White ink —————————> Black ink
    Other colour ink. ——————-> no change

    Because that would be the most ideal way to print something
    (Of course I can do these with existing features, but it will take a lot of time depending on amount of notes I make)

  13. Maybe a function where you can erase specific pens ex) erase pencil only

    Also when you remove tape it removes anything written over it as well :)

  15. When you touch the created shape to edit it and move the vertices, one of the edges may accidentally stay in its place and separate from the vertex. I have not noticed any patterns for this bug to occur, so it is unlikely that this is some kind of intentionally added feature. There is a video showing the bug in the attachments.

  16. This request has been sitting unresolved for over 4 years now. Please add a menu toggle to return to current notebook from the Documents view. Having to click on a note to get to the view is super clunky (for example, if you have lots of folders to organize your many notes). It should be as easy to swipe to the open notes view as it is to move to the library from your note.

  17. If we want to do a lasso screen shot of an area which is free of self made elements, the screenshot icon appears directly on the lasso-options-bar, but when we want to do a screenshot with self made elements (does not matter if it‘s a picture, stylus writing or normal text) inside the lasso, we need to click on „more“ to get to the screenshot option. Please just add this back so it works faster, I think this was possible a couple of years ago.

  18. On macOS, the user interface in both documents and the folder overview often appears too small on large screens. It would be helpful to have an option to scale the UI—both to enlarge and reduce it. This feature would be useful not only on Mac but also on iPad and iPhone.

  19. Something I don't like about GoodNotes is that when you are on the Typing option in the Nav Bar (the keyboard symbol), you can't add line spacing when you have numbered list selected. How is this not something already integrated into the app?

  20. I want to be able to use my own AWS account for AI related features so that way all my data stays strictly with me. It would be ideal to have a place to enter my access keys or whatever credentials I used to access my account.
