  2. The clocks colour is not visible on white backgrounds due to the time beeing in white (same as the charge and wifi icon). It would be great if its colour would be adaptive or atleast not also white.

  3. It would be very nice to be able to add pages to the side in vertical mode and on the bottom in Horizontal mode as well. I have to import PDF´s quite regularly and they tend to be in the way a lot. If they were next to each other and would just take the effort to scroll as every other page it would be much easier and they would just be there if you need them.

  4. I love using GoodNotes with the outline feature for digital journaling. The only thing missing is that physical A5 book to hold in your hands. It would be so amazing to have a service to order a bound book once 250-300 pages in an A5 style notebook has been filled. Also to have a journal notebook option where page numbers are added, A5 is default, and landscape mode allows for a full 2 page spread to be shown. We get an amazing feature and it's monetizing for the devs. Win win.

  5. Especially in the dark flashcards, if I have my display brightness set too low (like during the night) it becomes really difficult to see where the "question" space ends and the "answer" space begins. So I propose changing the line and font color to a bright gray to read it better!

  6. I would love for my notes to auto position themselves properly and perhaps group together when im writing. For example when writing on paper you sometimes have to write on different sections of a page or printout (left side, right side, top, bottom, middle) and goodnotes doesn't do the without opening a different text box. And when trying to reposition all the text it doesnt move all your notes together without the user lassoing every little box you want instead of just grouping them and moving them all together. I would love to right a Topic in the middle with…

  8. I would like to propose a feature regarding backups with Google Drive:

    I would like to have a button with possibility to make, at that very moment, a mirroring type backup with Google Drive, so you could easily handle files locations changes.

  9. Gerne hätte ich die Möglichkeit einen vierten Farbstift als Auswahl zu haben. Wäre super, wenn man in den Einstellungen die Anzahl Farbstifte einstellen könnte.

  10. Sometimes when i annotate my power points, there's too much thing on it and not enough space for me to write. It could be useful if we could use the comments concept but not only write text, but also take notes.

    Not sure if my idea is clear, but i would like a space where i can take note and draw whatever i want that will reduce, and i can drag wherever i want.

  16. Every time, I search in one file, It begins from the first page to search.
    But sometimes, I just want to search from this chapter.
    Better search from the page where I was.

  17. As a left-handed person, the exit button of the tab is always on the left. Sometimes the tab closes mistakenly because of the touch. It sounds unavoidable for left-handed users like me.

  19. I would appreciate to have a Notebook-Counter in order to see, how many notebooks I have (in a specific folder or subfolder) and to identify/detect empty or overfilled folders or subfolders.

    After the name/title of each folder or subfolder should be in parentheses the number of (sub)folders and the number of notebooks they contain. (See figure.)
