  1. I do believe that Goodnotes does some of the best (if not the best) work at editing PDF powerpoint slides. One feature that I love about another competitor app however, is the ability to edit on the side the PDF slide aka slide notes. This would be a great way to add additional information (definitions, questions, images,stickers) and avoiding layering on an already cluttered slide. I think this would pair well with Goodnotes 'presentation' mode which I use quite often and pull up my own notes to present lecture slides.

  2. Since the recent updates, my imac will not go to sleep even when I do not have goodnotes open on it - it is kept awake by using goodnotes on my iPad. Please change this as it's costing electricity!

  4. Why would you take away color control after text duplication. It was there until your silly icon upgrade. Did you ever think we were using that feature for drop shadows on text? Now I have to go to the lasso and reselect the text before I can change it's color. An extra two steps. Please put it back!

  5. 希望推出可以收藏文本框不同格式的按钮,这样我们可以一键切换文本框不同的格式组合(包括不同字体、颜色、大小、行间距的组合),不需要再每次点击切换字体/颜色/大小/行间距,因为这样实在是太麻烦了。谢谢!!!希望大家都来投票!!!

  7. There is no colour picker for the background of the Text Box, why was it added in the other colour selectors, but not for the Background colour?

    Please add!

  8. You should be able to have the highlighter or pen tool selected for example, and then click a little button to hide the tool bar so that you can read without distractions but still underline and highlight text.

  9. Introduce a new feature that ensures grammatically correct notes. This will not only grammatically correct the notes but also enhance learning and mastery of the new language.

  13. When connecting to an EarPods (USB-C), I cannot start a recording. Tapping recoding button resulting in a disabled recording button and not turning into recording state.

  16. Seria legal poder reorganizar as funções da barra de tarefas. Dessa forma o usuário poderia organizar da melhor forma possível para o seu trabalho, seria muito mais dinâmico.

  18. Hi, sometimes Apple's Copy Subject takes a long time to enable when trying to copy and photo from a website. So usually I take advantage of the Freehand Crop because, well, it's great. But what I don't like is how it just closes the figure immediately when you lift the pen. It's just hard to crop a subject in just one go without any doing any hand adjustments.

    Is it possible to just leave the line open, and let me continue the current line im doing even after I lifted the pen? It will be much more comfortable, AND crops…

  19. A new tool to “fold” pages vertically or horizontally to divide the page into a customizable number of rows/columns. This would be helpful for creating tables etc.
