  1. Import and convert word documents with track changes to a PDF to take notes. Competing apps can do this. I'm a professional using this app to mark up changed documents sent by my team. These are exclusively word documents and being able to open them in GoodNotes on my iPad would be great.

  3. I am using Goodnotes on iPad, Samsung Tab S8 and Windows. So far when creating a notebook from a pdf on the iPad and sharing it I can open the notebook on all platforms.

    Today I tried making a notebook on Windows and share it. I can open the notebook on the Samsung tabelet without problems but on the iPad I get an error saying the link is not valid

  6. I spend hours on aesthetic notes on my iPad to then view the same notes scattered on my iPhone. They are layered on one another and I cannot read or view them properly on my phone. Please fix!

  7. The surface duo 2 is a unique android device that allows for pen input just like the other surface devices. This would be ideal for taking notes on the go.

  9. When working on an exercise sheet it is annoying to go back and forth between the sheet and the extra page you're writing on. It would be amazing if goodnotes had boxes that you can add right on the exercise sheet which can be collapsed to hide / expanded to edit so you have the (potentially long) solution you wrote right next to the exercise.

  10. Allow goodnotes to auto create a folder where all the cards you need to smart review are allocated automatically each day so you don't need to dish through all your work to find them

  11. It would be great to have some way of changing all the handwriting or highlighting of a certain color to another color. This way, I can experiment with different color schemes on notes that I have already taken, without having to manually select every occurrence of a certain color with the lasso tool and changing the color.

  12. Font support please. I could not write Turkish letters in any way. (Letters work on windows, not on my tablet.) The delete key doesn't work either, I can't delete the text with the keyboard.
    Hyperlink support is also available. I can't scroll sideways in stickers. Not all of the stickers you add by default are visible.

  13. Dear GoodNotes Team,

    I am experiencing difficulties with pressing the "New ..." button in the Mac application, as GoodNotes only responds to my input occasionally. Kindly review and improve the user interaction to allow for seamless usability.

    Thank you.

    Best regards

  14. I desperately needed a brush switcher that could hover. Similar to this feature in notibility. This provides great convenience for brush switching when working in split screen.

  15. Need a way to adjust our crop by moving the four corner points. Similar to a scanning app where you can move points to edge of document.

  17. When you tap in an iPad with three fingers, a bubble with redo and undo buttons will appear on the top of the screen. It could be useful, however, GoodNotes seems to support only the undo function, while the redo button can never be activated. I’m wondering maybe you can fix this problem.

  18. Thank you so much for adding a Windows app.

    It would be very nice to link it to my IOS account. I've gotten around this by sharing the workbooks through E-Mail, but I look forward to when I can work seamlessly across my personal intermixed ecosystem. Thank you for continuing to improve.

  19. I often scan documents by using GoodNote's function. Scan docs then write down memo with Apple Pencil on GoodNotes.
    Most Hiragana and Katakana are ok, but Kanji isn't. For example, printed word is "揉捏", but recognized string will be "探程" , "操探" etc. It happens even though scanned image is clear. Those characters' shape is totally different from the original string for Japanese or Kanji users.

    I would be appreciate if OCR could be improved.
    I also understood kanji character's shape is complicated and OCR library might be limited. So correcting OCRed string can be alternative.
