  2. We Need a lineal function to mess some kind of stuff on our pages. Would be really nice for Students in Math to have the exact measure data.

    Please add this in the near Future.

  3. Ink to maths would be perfect, notability has added the feature via my script and it will be excellent if good notes could do the same

  4. As a student I have it iced myself flagging slides/pages for many reasons. It would be nice to have the ability to change the color of the flags. For example, so I can quickly see what items I need to review and what items I have favorited for reference.

  6. Being able to move and edit documents within the app will greatly enhance the functionality and productivity.

    The Lasso Tool should be able to edit imported documents like it is with notes. This is also applicable to the text box function.

    Currently, editing imported documents in GoodNotes feels like using Snapchat. We should be able to move and edit the text as we like.

    I strongly believe this will make GoodNotes the best notes app out there and choosing it instead of Notability would become a no brainier.

  7. Make scanned documents or photos of handwriting able to be manipulated or changed to editable features on phone apps. Make photo or document scan able to be rotated and cropped like photo file. This should be easy stuff to setup.

  8. I'm personally very much not a fan of the navy-blue theme. I believe it would be an amazing UX implementation for GoodNotes to follow in the footsteps of Apollo for Reddit, for example, who offer a wide variety of aesthetic variations, see the attached picture for an example of what GoodNotes could implement!

  9. Some answers of questions are graphic based. It would be great so have some space for sketching instead of mind based answer contol.

  10. In the way that you can save your favorite brushes, meaning type, color and size, in other apps so you can quickly switch between the main brushes you use in a document, it would be nice if Goodnotes had a similar option as well. It would really speed up my note taking proces if I could quickly switch between different pens and highlighters.

  12. Currently to copy an element like a sticker, I have to lasso and then long-press, as if I just long-press on the sticker that option isn’t available. I can only zoom, edit, or paste. It seems like an unnecessary extra step, and I’d love for “copy” to be an option here.

  13. I read a lot of research papers and sometimes want to summarize a paragraph in the margins. However, the margins are often too small to do that. It would be nice to convert the A4 paper to A3, or just an option to add a few centimeters on each side.

  16. I often print my notes once im done with a unit and because i write on graph paper i have to change the pages back to blank individually which is really tedious. A feature in which you could change the template of the entire notebook would be really useful.

  17. For me it would be Pretty helpful when there would be an Option To categorize the Pages i have marked as favourites.
    In every Semester i have about 4 different courses and for each course an own folder with probably some sub folders and when there is a page I would like to mark for later I can only use the one favourite button but I would love to have an own collection of pages marked as favourites for every folder/ for every course.
    So in the end I could have an collection of all the marked pages for one…

  18. Would love to see “insert image from Google search” added as a feature. It would save steps of opening a browser and copy/pasting or saving to files and then inserting.

  19. Make it possible to zoom an image while cropping so that it can be cropped easier. Especially needed when the dimension of the rectangle I want to crop is very small.

  20. When reading a research paper, in-text references often link to the "References" section at the end of the paper, where the full reference is listed. It would be helpful to preview the linked part of the PDF to see the referenced paper without losing my current spot in the document. The attachment shows how this is implemented in the PDF reader of my computer.
