  3. A split-page feature would allow for one section of the page to remain on a desired piece of text, whilst the other could scroll down and view the questions.

    I am aware of opening the same document in another window, which is great, but what if i wanted to view 1) the text, 2) the questions, and 3) the guidance to the answers, all at once?

    This page-split feature would be indispensable!

  5. There are two toolbars unnecessarily. Top toolbar for browsing slides, searching for specific words, undo button and the add page button. Bottom toolbar for writing tools. Top one only uses up the left and right side (with the title taking up a huge amount of space in the middle) and the bottom toolbar only uses the middle so they would merge perfectly if you just moved the title elsewhere, thus giving us the users more space to write/draw on.

  6. When I select a new colour from the drop-down / multiple list and click out of the colour selector, that new colour is not automatically chosen to be the new pen colour.

  7. Hi. I use a dot grid background for all my planner pages. I love having that bullet journal feel.
    However, pasting onto dot grid paper is a nightmare. If you use stickers, are moving content around, or copying and pasting, when you long press on dot grid paper, the only option you get is "Highlight, Strikeout, Define, Copy". Ahhhh. It's maddening! I always have to hunt for a space on the page that doesn't have the dot grid, and long press to paste there. For some reason, the apple copy and paste doesn't function well in Goodnotes. Three finger press…

  8. When converting handwriting to text it would be preferable not to add a return automatically at the end of each handwritten line. Instead, add a special symbol to insert a return, like a capital “J” rotated 90° counter-clockwise. I’m thinking of the “return” symbol on BBEdit’s default font.

    That one feature could save a great amount of tedium removing returns and adding spaces.

  9. Hi,

    I am looking for a proper way to let my assistance, who is working with Microsoft and both of us with google drive, preparing me for meetings. Therefore my idea was to sync my notebooks created with goodnotes and the folder structure to google drive. This is already possible. And the assistance now could put files the same folders.
    The idea now is to be able to see and open the These files directly in the goodnotes folder view.

  10. My suggestion is the app could have a smal window inside a pdf to write notes about... Or import a notebook (small) on the archive, or, at least, add "post it" to attach the file (and be able to export them all at the end- not one by one, please).

  11. It’d be nice to be able to copy and paste pages from the thumbnail view instead of having to copy them, close the thumbnail view, click add page and paste them.

  13. I thoroughly enjoy this app and use it for all of my notetaking. I noticed that I was unconsciously pressing two of my fingers on the screen to undo just like procreate does but that’s not a feature available in this app. I think adding the double finger tap feature would be a huge benefit to this app and could maximize the potential.

  15. Ich wünsche mir eine Option Dokumente mit Face ID oder mit dem Fingerabdruck schützen zu können. Somit könnte man private Papiere schützen vor unbefugtem Zugriff zb in der Schule oder Uni.

  17. In windows like for exporting, the button to execute the final step ("Export" in this case) is blue, like the Apple pop-up windows. This suggests hitting the return key should work like pressing that button with the cursor like with Apple pop-ups, but this is not the case. Seems like a simple fix that would just make users' lives a little easier.

  18. Hi,
    My professors sometimes provide us with scans of documents to read. I like to annotate as I read. However because these can be scans with black edges from scanning, it is really hard to find a color that will show through. If I was able to put an opaque shape behind my text to make it easily viewable, that would be awesome. The current fill only allows for a see though fill and it doesn’t help at all. I also can’t chose white because it would not show on the white spaces and I don’t want to be changing…
