  3. Please add danish as a language in Good Notes6. I love your app, but it would be twice as good with my language 😊👍

  4. Please add good notes on windows! I have a surface book and want to use good notes so bad but I can’t. It’s forcing me to use one note instead. I don’t want to buy an iPad when I have a perfectly capable tablet. Please add this to windows software!!

  5. Please have a way to edit a document in full-screen mode; i.e. hiding all toolbars but still able to edit a document.

    E.g. double tap with two fingers to hide/show toolbars without leaving edit mode

    This is legitimately the only thing holding me back from using Goodnotes 5 all the time

  7. Please add nextcloud support for backing up notes. The German government is now switching to it and is just a great solution for self hosting clouds. Also many universities (at least in Germany) use it.

  8. We should be able to add shapes from a predefined set of shapes from the developers. Plus we should be able to save our own custom shapes like for eg a rectangle with different length and breadth or a elliptical shapes etc

  9. I would like to choose which notebooks / documents get synced through iCloud. I have plenty of documents on my iPad that I don't want to have on my iPhone. Things like PDF manuals or PDF presentations that I just can't use on the smaller iPhone screen.

  12. Structure for outlines
    Though adding pages to outline is a great feature, Goodnotes will be more convenient if we can have some simple structure for outlines such as a Chapter-section-subsection structure, which makes both pdf reading and handwritten notes much better organized within one notebook instead of creating multiple folders.

  13. I have used many of the Goodnotes counterparts that are available in Microsoft store, which includes Inkodo, Scrble, Samsung voice notes with pen, Nebo, OneNote which the total cost was approximately 25USD. In the end, I concluded that none of these can ever become a rival of Goodnotes in IOS, due to their occasional crashes, unbearably slow speed, incompatibility with pdf, minor bugs, which just increases my stress level. I really would like to see Goodnotes for windows 10, no matter what the cost is.

  17. Lines to locate the different elements in the page. When you want to align two elements is really difficult because there aren’t any guides that assure you the correct position.

    This feature would be optional, I mean, if you want, you could use it and if you didn’t want, you wouldn’t use.
