  2. Plz add the option of changing pen size and style after writing the note. Sometime I accidentally write the word too small but when I enlarge it the pen size enlarge too. So it will be nice to add the option to change the pen size and style after the writing is done

  3. The order of flashcards is automatically mixed as you move it to another set. This is quite bad for people who are studying flashcards in sequences. Obviously I always have the option of smart learn so there’s no reason for mixing the cards in the first place

  5. In GoodNotes 5 (Version 6.3.9 (2595824.519274371) ) there is a little bug: when using a sheet, taking notes or using a notebook the HUD of Apple (time, date in the left corner; wifi, battery, VPN, connected bluetooth devices etc.) is not shown any more. When opening GoodNotes or opening a normal folder, everything is fine. Could you pleas fix that with the next update?

  6. The convert to text is great but when I have rotated a sheet so my iPad more resembles a sheet of paper it does not work, just gives random images. I can rotate and convert but would be nice to not have to.

  8. Why not implement a feature where user can type a number, e.g. X in a text box, tap “add new pages” button to add X number new pages (according to template) at one go?

  9. It’s difficult to add text to the iOS app. This makes it difficult for students to study while travelling on public transport, eating at the university food court or during wait times (heavy to hold iPad up mid-air).

  10. Why not max profits and global IQ & knowledge quantity or complexity of humans by implementing adjustable vertical border between Cornell page layout space (template) and page main body space in Goodnotes 6 iPadOS app? This allows user to take good notes without fear of running out of space. Integrate the concept of infinite free form canvas and Excel adjustable columns into Cornell page layout (template) for global note taking apps.

  11. Please bring back the ability to automatically bring up the share to option when sharing a link/collaborating. It makes me do extra steps now to take the link copied and go place it somewhere to send it that way

  12. I use the note-paper layout with lines and the side part on the left for punching. I like this layout because I am using handwriting and typewriting in one document. I would love to have this layout with squares and with a right and left side. So when I am printing double sided, the side part is always where the punching is.

  13. Maybe you can do an newer modern design for the Toolbar because it looks a little bit old. Maybe you can do a smaller minimalistic design because the Toolbar is a bit big and it take much space so if you do the Toolbar a bit smaller or minimalistic you can use more space to write.

  15. This one is simple! Please add a feature to zoom out of a page or powerpoint slide so that we can view one slide in a smaller frame than the screen size is. I don't like how the slide automatically fits the page without being able to zoom out a little to give space to edges/corners.

  17. Make android math convert available for android user.
    I tried to follow your instructions about the math convertor, and I didn't find this option for it in the android app (using tab S8+).

  18. since the last update its much harder to delete something by scratching it out. you just keep on adding lines and it creates an even bigger mess. it doesnt really matter how you do it (slow or fast movements, quickly or longer), it‘s way harder to get it to work as it used to. its such a nice feature if you want to get rid of something without using the eraser, which deletes stuff you didnt want to sometimes.

  19. Wolfram alpha integration
    So you could reference all of what wolfram alpha can do as well as do conversions, reference info, as well as improving the math functionality with quick ability to do conversions and references that wolfram offers. So you could select a math expression for example or an ip address, or unit of measurement and be able to solve, convert, plot, subnet, and reference data. With the ability to search wolfram or have GoodNotes just be able to recognize data from notes and be able to do math and solve conversions and such.

  20. I often download slides from lectures and it would be great if I could be able to zoom out and not have the slides fill the whole screen when I am looking through it. I'm able to do this with documents made in the app, but not when downloaded and it would just be nice to not have it fill the whole screen, to get a better overview.
