  1. Bring back support for 3rd party styluses! Specifically, SonarPen. According to its Kickstarter, goodnotes was in the beta stage for officially supporting it--what happened?

  2. Yesterday evening I created a folder on my desktop and added 7 files to it (exams I was about to grade). It took over 22 hours for these 7 files to finally appear on the iPad. Both the desktop and the iPad were connected to the network all the time. That's waaaaaaay too long.

  3. It's pretty annoying to have to switch back to the pen after pasting copied content (even when pasting handwritten text).

  5. Move the COPY option back to the middle of the options when using the lasso tool. Having to move my hand/pencil all the way to the left (or to either far side, for that matter) is not intuitive for left or right-handed people.

  7. Right now good notes doesn't support pinching with three fingers to copy and pinching out to paste. The only option is to hold for a second until the copy option pops up which is a bit tedious and slow.

  8. I've been using Goodnotes 5 for several years both for work and for personal affairs. It's my go-to for note-taking, info filing, etc. (My Notability has gone into the Cloud, maybe forever ..).

    With frequent use over time, the problem is what I stated on the subject line. I know there's a way to "favorite" a page, a folder, etc. And yes, there is a SEARCH bar.

    But there does not seem to be flexibility in customizing my "library" of materials, and the layout of the main page (currently only by date, name, type) to enable me to feel better…

  9. I would like to be able to write with the magic keyboard as easily as with my pen, without interrupting the flow of work.

  14. Serious flaws

    The text box never aligns with the horizontal line provided by the "single column" template

    This will seriously affect the neatness and aesthetics of keyboard input

    I hope developers can improve this as soon as possible

    This is really important!

  16. I would like to write till the end of the last line on a page but auto-advance doesn't suggest that so I'll have to manually keep dragging the window or move it. It would be better if it suggests a new page when the last line is also complete.

  17. Dear Goodnotes4 Developers

    How are you?
    I am a Goodnotes 4 user from Thailand and I have a question for you. I can't open Goodnote4 after updating my iOS version to 14.6. I have important files in the app and I tried importing them to Goodnotes 5 but to no avail. Is there any way I can get my files and documents back?
    Thank you for taking the time to read this and I am patiently looking forward to your reply.

    Thank you.
    Charles

  18. I use good notes to hand write paragraphs poems and stories I find myself selecting lines and moving them around to reorganize. Some time ther is not enough space between the lines. I would love to see a feature that selects the paragraph then a similar feature like the resize feature that allows the line spacing between line to be increased. I envision this being similar to an explode feature on a cad drawing but much more simplified

  20. Just dragging the pencil over the txt should select and allow drag and drop

    Copy , cut and paste - the Text must be from the PDF and not what’s added by goodnotes.
