Get rid of the continuous undo
On goodnotes 5 I’d you keep hitting undo it undoes work you’ve completed on previous pages. Without noticing I’ve lost some of my notes and I wish that it was back to how it was in version 4

I think that the real problem is undoing things when you can’t possibly see that you are losing something. I can think of a few ways to fix this:
1) undo/redo only works on a single page. When you go to a new page, it would start a new set of undo/redo things. This would keep you from hitting undo and having something on another page go away.
2) have undo always switch to the page that the undo actually did something to. At least then you would know what had happened, and you could hit redo if you wanted.
3) have undo warn you that you are undoing something on a previous page (without automatically changing pages which can be distracting)
Personally, I think that going to a new page should always clear the undo stack, but that might be hard for people who scroll around their notebook a lot looking at stuff, and then when they get back to the page they were working on, they can’t undo a recent action.

I agree with this! I use GoodNotes for taking notes in lecture, and losing an important part of my notes is now a fear of mine. I just noticed that the undo button works like this yesterday and have been using GoodNotes 5 for about 2 months now, and don’t know how much of my notes I’ve lost to the undo button working like this
