  1. I often use enlarging tool for specific area. However, when I use this, blue area always emerges in the left side and it is really useless.

    I want the toggle function to the enlargement tool for GoodNotes.

  2. I really love Goodnotes, it‘s an awesome app I use everyday in my school-live. But please add settings, that allow the user to customize the color theme. So that the bar on the top and also selection-tools are in a color the user prefers. Also a setting to set the position of the tools to the left or the right side of the app. Lastly please add support for I-Work and MOffice so the user is able to create, edit and document those documents. Thanks a lot.

  3. Entendo que seria muito interessante que o Goodnotes, assim como outros leitores de pdf como Xodo, Noteshelf, Microsoft Edge etc, fizesse a sincronização automática dos arquivos retirados do Google Drive. Atualmente, a única coisa que o Goodnotes faz é enviar o arquivo modificado para uma pasta separada dentro do Google Drive. Seria interessante que o arquivo retirado do Google Drive, depois de alterado pelo Goodnotes, retornasse para a mesma pasta de origem do Google Drive.

  4. Sharing a notebook is very convenient. What I would also like to see is the possibility to write-protect the shared notebook. I work at a school and share my notes with the students by exporting them as PDFs and uploading them to our learning management system. I have to do this over and over again after each new lesson. It would be easier for me to share the Goodnotes notebook directly as a link (all students use GoodNotes on the iPad) without students having the ability to change anything in my document/notebook.

  5. I use different colours/pen sizes for different documents. Would be great to be able to create a stationery set or 'profile' to easily switch instead of having to manually change my things every time.

  6. Its frustrating to write the correct way, and it converts the text wrong. please allow away to toggle the autocorrection on or off when scribbling.

  8. first of all I love the app, I use it for 2 years already, it is efficient and easy.
    The only thing that can save me more time is: searching not in every map but searching inside one map, for example a specific subject, because the search button now will search through all my notes. For example, if I want to search "heart" in my map full of lectures about thorax, I don't want it to search every map (because I have like 1000 notes inside all my subjects that has the word "heart" in it, I only want it…

  9. Being able to click on a word and have a flash card open, instead of creating a separate notebook/folder for flash words. ex: Cells (is highlighted to note that it is a vocabulary word self-created flashcard) Once clicked on the word "cells" the definitions appear

  10. there is a 'swipe for new page' function in one direction (I use it vertically), but there is no function in the other direction.

    I would love to toggle through my open tabs using horizontal swipe.

    It would make working in different documents a lot easier - especially when there are more than two.

  11. Sometimes when I mix dialogues for film I need both hands on the faderboard and can not flip the pages manually. It would be great if I could use a gesture like blinking my left eye or something like that.

  14. Three dots on top of the screen for split view prevent the user from pressing the down ( v ) arrow on the right of the document name when the name is short. Please move the arrow or resize the touchbox for the arrow.

  15. Allow the screen when using GoodNotes on iPad to be shared with the Mac App version so you can see what you're doing in real-time on the Mac App. I currently use another writing program that does this, which is amazing. I can jump on Zoom and work on documents and teach. Likewise, I can join my tutoring sessions, and my teachers can see the work I'm doing and annotate on screen, etc. I also give presentations and live training, so having the illustrations up on the projector in from of the class is great.

    The AirPlay feature is not…

  17. It would be great if we could mass select existing PNGs from our files or even entire folders of PNGs when creating element collections. Currently, we are only able to upload PNGs individually to element collections, which is very time-consuming, especially if you want to upload hundreds of stickers.

  18. So many times I lasso something and have accidentally included a few pixels of something that I don’t want to move. It would be nice to edit the boundaries of the lasso by adding/subtracting from it.

  19. It would be nice to place elements in your "zoomed in handwritingbox". I use Elements for little arrows and other links, but when i write in the handwritingbox mode it closes when i want to add an element to it. It's only a small thing but very annoying.

  20. Could you please add nepali language. I would like to type in nepali with my bluetooth keyboard and write in nepali language with my pencil in my iPAD.

    Currently in my Mac, I use romanized unicode nepali font (kalimati) which allows me to change my language input to NEPALI and let me type in nepali. I would like to do same in my iPAD with goodnotes.

    Thanking you in advance
