  1. The flashcards are blurry in learning modus. Thus, when you have written a little bit more on the cards, you are not able to read it anymore.

    Further, it would be nice to have the possibility to classify each flashcard (with a little menu on the right hand side of each flash card). Then you could add for example all vocabularies and assign them to each chapter. When you enter the learning modus, you could tick the chapters which you want to learn.

    In the end, a little summary of your learning would be nice. (How many ended at which…

  3. Having written black pages with white font color, it would be great to just switch to the negative (page turning white, white font color changing black, the other colors don’t change) to print the notebook.

    Would love to have this feature !

  4. Could you please try handwriting on GoodNotes with the iPad M2, it is really strange and writes small lines at the end of each letter if you write fast. I believe that it is due to the pencil hoover feature, since this is implemented correctly on the apple app “notes” where the writing seems fine. Thanks

  5. It would be nice to rename existing files. I noticed that recently you are able to rename files when uploading. Please also give the option to rename after uploading.

  6. I would love to be able to write or add text on the folders icon, or have different patterns or colours. This would be helpful to quickly and easily distinguish folders from each other

  7. Auf unseren Lehrer iPads steht uns die iCloud wegen Einschränkungen leider nicht zur Verfügung. Es wäre super, wenn man auch über andere Cloud Dienste synchronisieren könnte.

  8. I am left-handed and use GoodNotes on my iPad for taking notes. When you're editing a document and zoomed in so that the entire width of the document can not be displayed and scroll all the way to the edge of the document, GoodNotes forces the edge of the document to the edge of the display and does not allow you to scroll off the page. This makes it difficult for me when writing at the beginning of a line, since I'm left-handed, my hand is often hovering off the edge of my iPad or I need to set something…

  12. Idea: Allowing white ink in dark mode to automatically be switched to black ink in light mode. Basically, allow for visibility of the inks when switching between dark mode and light mode. Collanote (a free app) is able to do this and I would love for this to also be available in Goodnotes!

  15. Please make some updates in the app. I as a medical student need to draw a lot of diagrams in my notes, especially with curves. Whenever I try to make any curved diagram it's automatically turned into edgy one. So please consider this improvement.

  16. Being notified about a set to be done that day. Or while in the app, the flashcard could have a little icon to show that it’s ready to be reviewed again.

    Right now I just use the Apple Reminders app to notify me to study certain flashcards.

  17. There should be at least 5 colors in the toolbar specially for the highlighter feature. It would help instead of tapping a color to change it and then another tap to change it back to the original. 3 colors isn't enough when used in studying notes/books.

  18. I use GN to store ebooks. Sometimes I need to copy / paste from a PDF stored.
    Im able to use the FIND to find the text, but I can't select lines or paragraphs, copy and past it (i.e.) on MSWord or Mails....

  20. When we study Lange text books using good notes navigation is a bit difficult eg we should have the go to previous page option other wise we have a tough time going back and forth between pages. Abo book marks can be made of more than one colour so that book marked pages can be categorized.

    Lastly the long press option to highlight or underline in readonly mode is highly desirable but has been taken of in the updates
