  3. I use GoodNotes for my mechanical engineering studies. For this it would be nice if a few more features were added.

    I would find the following features important:

    -ruler with a scale and angle setting

    -Predefined shapes (arrow, semicolon line, square, circle, etc...)

    -Mathematical paper templates (graph paper, squared paper with 5mm boxes)

  4. Please includes a customizable color palette with the ability to add and save custom colors for text styling. This feature is similar to the digital pen's color to create colorful text quickly and easily.

  6. It would be useful to add reverse mod in Card's Smart Revise Regime so you can choose not only by the question but by the answer too. Same idea is now realized in Training Regime.

  7. I use my iPad in portrait mode, and it bothers me a bit that I have to slide to choose another color, I don't have the need to use some tools, for example, the laser or stickers, I would like to be able to remove and add tools from the toolbar depends on your needs so that there is a little more space in the toolbar and not have to scroll to find the color I want

  8. When checking the answer in smart learning mode, I would like you to choose the action in which the card is turned back. Although the action of the card turning backwards is intuitive, it is difficult because it takes a long time to keep checking multiple things.

    Thank you!

  9. I would like to be able to share flash cards with my other devices by using iCloud.
    It helps me to study them on my phone whenever I want.

  10. A flat marker pen like for flipcharts would be really great. For the highligter and the writing pen.

    Also a streamline option (with the ability to set the strongness of the streamline) for the pens and highlighters would be also great to smooth out the handwriting. Just like you can set it in procreate.

    Thanks a lot!

  11. It would be very helpful to split screen with vertically stacked screens so that Ipads can be used in the portrait orientation and make effective use of the screen space.

  13. I want to read in Goodnotes such as comic books, and I would like to be able to choose between right and left scrolling, as it varies from book to book.

  14. There should be a tool that can do cloze on either text or diagrams, then when the a “test mode” is activated it hides the item and it has to be clicked to be revealed. This would work very well with the current flash card system. It is the only feature that is missing compared to other studying apps like Remnote or Anki.

  15. Similar to one note, word, etc - an option to type equations with shorthand such as \vec (to create a vector arrow), \pi for the pi symbol, etc is incredibly important for mathematics, engineering, physics and many other sciences. If Goodnotes 5 is to truly support all students, mathematical equation support in text format is a must. Goodnotes 5 is used above OneNote because printing onenote pages is actively a nightmare, but lack of support for maths, and an inability to sync any handwritten equations immediately with a live sync or force cloud sync feature is a huge issue.

  16. I think you should take a look at the notes app. They have some pretty fire pencils.

  17. The handwriting experience in GoodNotes 4 is much better, because the fountain pen is not that exaggerated like in GoodNotes 5. Please optimise this.

  18. Merging pdf, either between existing goodnotes files or those in my files, is something I do fairly regularly. I have to usually turn to online sources that are sometimes a little sketchy looking rather than paying high fees to do something that should be simple. I would love to see this ability added to goodnotes!

  20. The topic says it all really …

    Currently the app preferences captures a setting for your language, with respect to handwriting recognition.

    My suggestion is to extend that data point to also apply to the default language used when creating a new “Study Set” of flash cards.

    The need to change this every time seems a failing on the part of the design…
