  1. Hallo :)

    ich fände es schön, wenn man den Seitenhintergrund von mehreren Seiten gleichzeitig wechseln kann, da dies handisch sehr mühsam ist und bei mehr als 20 Seiten super lange dauert! z.B wenn man ein neues Seitenformat benötigt.

    Außerdem wäre es cool, wenn man kleine Tabellen einfügen kann.

    Freundlich Grüße

  2. $ Continues writing from one page to another
    Sometimes to create huge mind maps or flow charts even A3 paper are not enough

    $ Selective text can be moved from one page to another
    It is important to link concepts while writing so it is important to move from one page to another

    $ recognition of mathematical symbols and formula for search and conversion to text

    $ Create bullet points or small square that can be ticked once task is completed especially for a todo list

  4. In GoodNotes 4, 3 colors and the eraser tool were easily accessible at the top of the zoom window. It would be great to have this back. It is a bit inconvenient to reach to the top of the ipad to erase, change tool or undo.

  7. Agnostic OCR, whatever languages

    When make a notes, usually I pick the words that I have them the most easier to remember, in whatever languages.
    As an Indonesian people, sometimes i use English, Indonesian, or even local language, whichever diction that the easiest for my brain to remember.
    Maybe OCR per character would be able to implemented that, although not sure about mathematical equations which needed some symbols.

    Thank you.

  9. Put undo button back!!!

    Add option to drop straight down — not just left, right, and return

    I constantly wish there was an option to move zoom box down

  10. The writing area in GN5 is actually reduced with respect to 4. I spend 100% of my time writing notes in the same colour, so the always present toolbar is a waste of space. I would like a toolbar which contracts when not used and expands when touched, something like the menubar in OSX. More writing area! At least, make the toolbar more compact

  11. After importing a calendar book for the New Year, I find that I cannot adjust the height settings for the pages. This is very inconvenient. I take all of my notes in your app and spend way to much effort readjusting the text box position when I want to go to the next line on the page.

    Please give more flexibility to adjusting the "height" - line spacing - for individual pages or at least for a whole document once it is created.

    Thank you! This app is amazing!!!

  12. Enable a "Back" link. PDF "Back" links work until I import the PDF into GoodNotes. I know there is a "Back" menu item but it would be so much easier to support it via a link on a document.

  13. Most artistic or note apps allow you to select an image and directly resize it using two fingers to stretch or pinch. In this same way it can also be reoriented or flipped. Much easier than holding pressure and flipping to resize, and a must for resizing boxes when i am noteteaking for school. Thanks!

  14. Please add B5 paper worksheet, because there is no B5 choice and most college students are using B5 paper because it has a lot of space to write and i'm unable to print my notes to B5 paper type.

  15. More templates and paper types would be good. I would love to notes templates with ability to type in the date, a To Do list would be also great. It would also be good to be able to change the colour or style of your notebook once it has been created

  16. Add an option to turn AI off. This feature is obstructive and if it has to be in the app, give users an option to opt out or turn AI off.

  17. Allow users to record a section in their notes, such as drawing out a diagram and its process, and be able to video playback it. It would be super resourceful since you wouldn't only see the end product, but you'd be able to see the process of how you got there. It can reduce copying and pasting of notes to demonstrate the process.

  20. Since there is an audio record feature, why not add transcription feature and AI-based auto notes generation. This way we do not need to pay for multiple apps and stick to our beloved Goodnotes for everything.
