  2. Einzelnen Lernkarten teilen. Man kann nur ein ganzes Lernkartenset teilen. Einzelne Karten teilen zu können wäre wichtig.

  4. Add a pop-up window to allow users to conveniently reorder tabs, like how it s implemented with “reorder pages” in a notebook. Currently, when we attempt to reorder tabs, the system often flickers between recognising it as a “open in an individual window” and “scrolling on tab bar”.

  6. Please bring back the original flashcards function from goodnotes 5, where you could write like normal on a flashcard template page and then practice them. This version was so much easier and more intuitive (and more unique) than the new version where you need to make a separate study set with only one option between text, image, or handwriting (which is also super inconvenient that it opens as a separate tab). Please bring back the flashcard testing option, at least for goodnotes 5 which still has the flashcard template.

  8. I didn't realize how much storage the fountain pen and brush pen needed to write compared to the ballpoint pen.

    I am suggesting a way to destructively convert fountain pen strokes and brush pen strokes to save storage in exported PDFs and in goodnotes documents.

    This would save /reduce storage space needed for a document and/or the exported PDF.

    Possible UI implementation:
    1. Select handwriting that was written with a fountain pen or a brush pen.
    2. Open the ... button for "More settings"
    3. Choose button titled "Convert handwriting to ballpoint strokes"
    4. Pop-up confirms that conversion cannot be…

  9. Hi. The word complete is the absolutely most annoying thing in the world. Why would I need anyone to finish the last 2 letters of the word I am writing, plus placing it at the wrong place. Please make a setting to be able to disable it once for all future files I open. And also, just in general, why would you set as default an experimental feature. I am sorry for being so blunt, I have a lot of pressure at school, and I do not need my notes app to be trying things on me like a guinea…

  10. I would like to see GoodNotes be able to import documents in chronological order. Currently, when I import a document and I want to add multiple pages at once to this same document, but they have a specific order they have to be in, GoodNotes will import them randomly. So, one of two things will need to happen: 1.) I have to import each page in the order needed—one by one. 2.) I will have to import them all at once and then go to the side-window page view and re-organize them there. Both of which are pretty tedious when…

  11. Every time I (or my friends) scroll through a note, when entering the bottom of the page, it automatically scrolls forward to the center of the next page. Also when softly scrolling in zoom mode near the bottom or top.
    This bug (I hope its not a feature) made me angry multiple times by now. GoodNotes is so unbelievably unusable at the moment, wow!

    Hope this gets fixed soon. Contact me if you need further technical information!

  12. Allow word wrapped outlines for long titles of various sorts.. Currently, outline titles, document titles, etc., are cut off when they are too long.

    What is the point of having a long title is you can't read it?

  13. add multiple hex codes at once instead of having to manually add them one by one. There should be a feature where we can upload a hex code pack and get all colors at once!

  18. Proposal for GoodNotes: Automatic Math Tool Insertion

    Feature: Automatically insert math tools (formulas, diagrams, graphs) based on handwriting or user input.

    2. Math Tools Insertion:
    • Formula Editor: Allows users to insert and edit complex math formulas.
    • Graphs & Diagrams: Automatically generates graphs (e.g., for ) and inserts them into notes.
    • Geometric Shapes: Quick insertion of geometric shapes…

  20. why does it take like 3 minutes to load every time i open the app? and worse, you set the loading spinner to automatically be at 90%, so people thinks it's actually going to finish in a reasonable time and don't leave the app. ok actually. i'm deleting your app. this is ridiculous.
