  1. As a university student who uses goodnotes for every class, I find myself frustrated at the fact that there is no subscript or superscript shortcut. Biology, chemistry, and math are all subjects that very often use these features. As a result, I often draw the subscript/superscript in after typing my note, however this tends to be very tedious and messy when there is a lot of them. It would be tremendously effective if Goodnotes had a shortcut much like Google Docs does, to insert subscripts and superscripts.

  3. Allow for selected items to be moved across pages for a better workflow.
    this saves time from not having to copy-paste items instead.

    basically making it so multiple pages can be treated as one:
    lasso two pages at once, move items across two pages, right on two pages with a single line, etc.

  4. Be able to customize tools

    It should be possible to customize the individual tools like pen, back, forward, etc. like in Word, which means that you should place them differently within the toolbar.

    For students this is very important.

  7. When the pdf background you want to write is black, I hope the reverse mode (night mode) function is added for those who prefer white background.

  9. You can scan documents for the template, but not for the photo tool. I think adding this feature to the tool would be very helpful in many cases.

  10. Whether through web, chrome web store, linux, or making the android app available to download on chromebooks (in that order of preference), can there please be at lease one option to get this on a chromebook? Thank you!

  11. The math font feature is great, but changing the color of the font would be very helpful so the typing could be seen on different colored pages.
    Right now the quickest option is to copy and paste the math into a text box and change it from there.

  12. Please improve the overflow text feature. Right now, if I add text to an existing page and it reaches the end, I have to add a new page for overflow each time. It should be possible to overflow to the next existing page automatically. Also, I do not see the overflow text until I add a page, so what I have written can easily be lost if I am not paying close attention. I have to backspace until the writing reappears, or add a new page- but not seeing a paragraph I have written is very stressful. It also breaks…

  14. Please add the option to change the line thickness of your notes (with lasso tool) without resizing everything.

    This would be very useful when realizing that your notes would look better if the linewidth was smaller/larger after you already took a lot of notes

  15. Add the ability to use IOS/Android emoji’s for the Icons on the folder as the stock ones have limited options that most people wouldn’t use. Also add the ability to use any color on the color wheel to customize the folder colors. Some of the colors that are there I don’t use because they are too light or too common.

  16. Having an option to disable the smart learn mode for a given study set feels essential. As of now, a study set that I used Smart Learn mode on one time keeps notifying me in the menu forever, while I don’t need to learn it anymore.

    This also risks keeping me from finding the sets that I need to study now, in the midst of all past study sets.

    I don’t want to delete them, I just wish I could disable the smart learn mode/notifications for specific sets.

  19. Imagine you've recorded a 3-hour class, which makes finding a particular chapter incredibly difficult, also this tool makes it easier for you to write the professor's words into your notes.

  20. Having the ability to vertically or horizontally flip a imported image or sticker. This would be so beneficial for architecture red lines!
