(moveable) Stickies / Post-it Notes
Having stickies that can be pasted on pages - particularly PDFs - would be fantastic. Notes could be made then moved around the page. The more these echo real-life stickies, the better.
(The ability to export notes made on stickies would also be most welcome.)

You could add a text box with a colored background, and you can move those around wherever you want.

I agree completely with this. I downloaded this in the hopes that at some point I might be able to use it to annotate and review the academic journal articles that I have to read, which are often so crowded that there's not much room to handwrite notes in the margin. An option for a sticky - by which I mean something similar to the sticky note function in Adobe Reader, which adds an icon that, when you click on it, opens up a separate box with room for extra notes (and if they could be handwritten, or handwriting-to-text, that would be a dream) - would increase the functionality of this app drastically for me.
At any rate, kudos to you guys. I like your app for what it is, and plan on using it to take notes during lectures and such. But there's a pretty huge section of my work that I really can't use your app for; none of the work-arounds I've come up with are as convenient or as useful as the sticky note feature in the little freeware app I've been using. Hope you guys get around to this soon. Best wishes.

I agree this would be a good add on. Also like the ability for text shortcut recognition for commonly written words, like text expansion software.

I agree this is a much needed function. Also add a tab for easy overview on the notes so that when you press on the note it takes you directly that page.

You can do this already by saving an image of a sticky note to your photos and then adding the image to the document.

Agree, or have the ability to have a white background when annotating a .pdf.

Sticky notes are a good idea. Saves paper space, like in iBooks.

A comment box that minimizes while leaving an icon that shows there is a comment. The "post-it" should open on click to show the entire comment.

Especially in PDF-files it would be useful to be able to leave small comments you don't see (Like Adobe comment function). You could add a comment like a post-it which only can be seen if it you actually click onit. If you don't click it's just a little symbol next to the point you added the comment. It's especially useful when you have a lot of text in a document and there is not enough space between the lines to add all the notes.

I often comment with my pen on existing PDF and sometimes I have the problem that there's no enough space on the margin to write. So it would be useful if I could add an iconizable post it to write on, with keyboard or pen
