Easier scrolling through long notebooks
I've been using GoodNotes for 3.5 years now and some of my notebooks are quite long. Scrolling through looking for things is difficult in these because there are so many pages to navigate and the scrolling is fairly slow. The search function works well but not for looking through diagrams/drawings. The thumbnail view is good for getting to the start or end of a notebook, but the pages are far too small to see what's on them in that view.
I would really welcome a nice way to scroll through pages faster in writing mode.

1.Searchable text in imported images/screenshots (like apple photos).2.Pdfs as small images that maintain searchable text.3.Infinite Canvas.
The ability to import a pdf as a smaller file/image similar to the way Notability lets you import scanned pdfs by giving you two options of either importing it as an image or importing it as a full-scale pdf would be an amazing feature. GoodNotes seems to make it imperative that something must be scanned instead of imported from another source in order to recognize text. This is the case at least when importing images or pdfs that were not OCR'd and have unrendered text in them.
I feel like this proposal would be helpful, in that, it would allow…

Please add the "search comments" feature
I have been using this app for nearly four years. Recently, I often use your "Add comments" function to make annotations, but there is no "search comments" function to make me confused, because there are 50 or 60 comments on a note, it is difficult to find the comments I want to see in a short time, I really hope to update the "Search comments" function as soon as possible. Best wishes for you.

Image Occlusion for Flashcards
Image Occlusion is a simple but very useful feature. With Image Occlusion, I can draw a box to cover up labels on a diagram. If I tap on the box, the box becomes invisible and the answer gets revealed. If I tap again, the box becomes opaque and the answer gets covered up again.
There should also be a button to cover up all of the answers at once or reveal them all at once. When I’m done studying for the day, I want to cover up all of the answers, in order to pick up my studying next time.…

Roman numerals & Unnumbered Pages
The book I am studying has Roman numerals (I-II-III) at the beginning. Then, Arabic numerals would start (1-2-3). What’s frustrating is when I want to search for Arabic numeral page “14” in GoodNotes, it’ll take me to Arabic numeral page “2” instead.
I attached a photo.
Adding the option to renumber pages to Roman numerals would help this make page searching that much easier. Adding the option to unnumbered pages would help too! Sometimes I add regular notebook page in-between the other pages in order to write my own detailed notes.
I attached a mock-up of how the thumbnails tab…

improve typing on good notes
I would like to use good notes as my only application for writing, taking notes and creating documents. It is not possible because the typing option does not run as smoothly as "pages" or "microsoft word". Please consider making good notes an application that can be used for creating and editing documents with simple typing.

Increase window size of Flash Card study option
I like using the flash card feature of GoodNotes and it works just fine on my iPad. However, on Mac, the window is so small, I cannot properly read my answers.
I'd like the window size to be adjusted so one can comfortably read the entire flash card on a large display. There's enough room for it.

flashcard
Loving the flashcard feature so far. Only thing that would make it more convenient would be allowing some sort of draw feature so that I can mentally dump the answer onto something I can see. For example I'm trying to memorize chemical structures and would like to draw it out first then compare it to the answer.

Typing: type text smoothly like in One Note or Notion
GoodNotes is a killer app for taking notes by hand but it’s really weak in the typing department.
Things that would make GoodNotes perfect:
- pre-set text formatting (title, headings, subheadings, normals text)
- text alignment (right, left, center, etc.)
- lists (bullet, number, checkbox)
- toggles (like in Notion)GoodNotes is wonderful for annotating PDFs, pictures and books and for drawing diagrams. However, it’s impossible to write all my notes by hand so I have to use Notion for typing and just insert the pictures I annotated or diagrams I drew in GoodNotes into Notion. So I now use…

Automatic recognition for curly brackets {}
For people who do a lot of math (and love clean notes) it would be super helpful if there was something like an automatic recognition for {curly brackets}!

endless paper to annotate lecture slides
I love GN5, however, I can't use it as much as I would like to since for my classes I annotate the PDF lecture slides and need more space than the PDF slide themselves. Therefore, I have to use OneNote which allows me to insert a printout of the PDF and I can write on both the slides and have notes specific to the slide on the side. I would love to be able to have this in GN since GN5 has so many more features I prefer to OneNote.

Improve size of flash cards on mac
The flash card studying window on a mac is not using the screen size. The window on an iMac is so small that the cards are only barely readable even if the application is opened as a full screen window.

Read only / Edit mode keyboard shortcut
A keyboard shortcut to toggle between read-only and edit modes. (⌘R perhaps?)
For both the Mac and iPad versions
I use a planner with hyperlinks and frequently have to toggle between the two modes, as the hyperlinks are easier to use in Read-only mode

Option to hide flashcards
I was reading the document and making flashcards. But when reading it again, i had to go through like 20 flashcards while reading my document, which i felt was annoying. Either there could be option to hide flashcards, or a separate tab for them as there is for outline, thumbnail etc

Windows and dropbox support
Hi I currently use an iOS app (Notebooks: writer) and am looking at your app as a replacement. It has many features that I like including folder/subfolder support. But there are two features that I need. Dropbox sync and Windows support, at least be able to read notes from Goodnotes on a Windows browser. From what I see these don’t seem to be provided, but would be happy if you could advise otherwise. Cheers Anton
