  3. I believe work flow would be improved if select and copy is quicker.

    Lets say, leave one finger on the screen and select would copy, doing that with two fingers on the screen would past it.

    The time holding the finger down sometimes makes quicker write the sentence again instead of copying it.

  4. The idea is very simple:
    Being able to select different items in one page, having them in a clipboard, and pasting them in another order. said items could be text, sketches, marked up images, or even handwritten paragraphs, really could be anything. I feel like we are so used to having the one item copy paste clipboard, but this could be really a huge feature. Also making them stick to the clipboard even after the first paste, is a feature I see a lot of Chemistry/physics/engeneering notes being boosted with.
    I hope I delivered the concept.
    I am not a…

  9. To build a special tool (as a highlighter) that allows to highlight all the title of document and creates, automatically, the index of document in order to avoid manually creation titles.

  10. Guys - the ability to snooze/set a reminder for a note would be amazing. When i'm using notes to generate ideas etc i often want to come back to them but you get busy and forget. A prompt would be invaluable (similar to 'nudges' in gmail) thanks

  11. It is very irritating when you touch a Note Tab, either deliberately or by accident, then that not opens at the cover page, not at the last page being edited. You have to select the thumbnails and scroll to the last page. Have an option in settings that states when selecting a note tab continue at the last page being edited or cover page.

  12. When displaying a note to a display like a TV via AirPlay, you should be able to “lock” a note to the external display and allow the person using an iPad reference other notes without showing them to the audience. In other words, selecting a single document/page as the “Live” document in the presentation.

  14. The one that changes when clicking Select, Edit, Text, Pen, Highlight, Eraser...

    I honestly think it doesn't make sense to have that toolbar always active when you are just visualizing a document without editing it. It takes up valuable space for visualization! (specially in Macs with small screens).

    Is there a way to disable that "sub-toolbar"?

  16. Please, could you add the option of being able to insert equations and characters directly with the keyboard. Just as it is done in Microsoft Word, it would help and speed up the process of inserting and writing equations directly with the keyboard of the iPad or computer

  18. On Windows 11, the GoodNotes app doesn't work as well as I would like.
    The documents written in GoodNotes doesn't sync onto the Windows 11 app. Instead, I have to share them VIA a link and access them that way. I also use gDrive to sync my GoodNotes, but the UI of viewing GoodNotes files on gDrive is just ... ugly... Would much rather prefer to use GoodNotes on Windows 11 and my iPad.

  19. My idea is make the voice imported from voice memo or export it alone or within the file itself ( as in the pdf expert and document app ) as shown in the photo below

    Please voice this as it is crucial for every persone to save there files for the future

  20. The new update is not user-friendly at all. The toolbar is difficult to use, and this is especially evident in the audio recording feature. When you start recording, a separate window appears outside the toolbar, taking up screen space and getting in the way. In the previous version, recording was indicated only by a small discreet icon in the toolbar, so writing wasn’t interrupted.
    In addition, when you play back the recording, every time you want to stop it and play it again, another unnecessary panel pops up on the left side of the screen, making the process time-consuming.

    Overall,…
