  1. This function should be optional for people to use. And those functions can define by self. It would makes people convenient to use those functions.

  7. I would like to have an option of, when importing a PDF, adding a sidebar to write my notes on the documents I am reading. Writing over them is good but sometimes a sidebar would make it easier and more organized

  9. Similar to what is mentioned here: https://feedback.goodnotes.com/forums/191274-customer-suggestions-for-goodnotes/suggestions/41779732-cornell-page-setting-without-line

    I'd like a Cornell note taking template without lines and that is more space efficient. The dimension for the Title seems a bit too large and unecessary for instance.
    Most importantly, we should have the opportunity to change the paper template such that we can choose dotted or blank paper. This feature is no longer available on Goodnotes (but appears to have been previously).

  11. everytime I go to type out a text box I get cock blocked by the pencil to text. I enjoy using my apple pencil to move my text boxes and the pencil to text option is something I do not really like nor wanted. An option to get to this feature on or off would be awesome!

  13. I am having this issue where I import a PDF into Goodnotes, make some edits, then want to export my edited PDF, but when I do so, it names the PDF file using only lowercase letters, even though the original file is named with some uppercase and lowercase letters. Is there a way to fix this? I just want the new file to have the same name and format as the original file.

  14. When I open a PDF file, the file is scaled so that I can see a full page as large as possible (usually setting the page to be as tall as my viewing window but somewhat narrower). This is probably the best option when scrolling is set to horizontal.

    However, it is not the correct default behavior for vertical scrolling; in that case, a better default would be for the page to be scaled to occupy the full width of the window, regardless of the page's height.

  15. When using splitscreen, generally if you want a good screenshot you have to zoom in and out to do so. However, if there was a functionality to screenshot the other page that you’re working off of and then import it into the page that you’re working on, you could get much higher quality notes.

  16. hope to make a function that can combine any element just like the function in WORD of MS office. So that users can make their own complex object such as table with lines and text box, complex shape with many circles and rectangles. if users can combine and split all elements freely, we can make our document better and edit it more easily

  17. I’ll be teaching first aid classes soon and we used tons of FlipCharts & chisel tip pens when we learned how to teach them. I’d like to use what I learned in class to teach and use my iPad at the same time. I‘ve been using GoodNotes for a while now and I really think a Chiseltip feature and maybe a FlipChart-esque template would really improve the app

  18. I import so many pdf texts for studying and all of the time I am in need of definitions of the words in those documents, I would kill for Goodnotes to have this feature.

  19. Q1.it will stuck when opening two or three files (about over 500MB each) in split screen mode.
    Q2.it will stuck when opening two or three files (about over 300MB each) in multi-tab pages.
    Q3.it will stuck when using a file over several hours(over 5 hours indoor and over 2 hours outdoor(may be because the weather is hot) about over 500MB),and the picture page of PDF will turn white and only show all image(lines,txt,draws…) made by GoodNOtes5

    can you do some optimization on these problems?
    such as pause the status “respond at any time” of the file which dosen’t be focused…
