  1. Guten Tag
    Es wäre super, wenn es Vorlagen für Lernsets gäbe (z.B. kariert oder liniert)

    Zudem wäre es einen grossen Mehrwert, wenn die Lernsets wieder als pdf exportierbar wären.
    So sind die Karteikarten an die App gebunden und es ist kaum möglich diese offline zu repetieren, was sehr schade ist.
    Bei der Version 5 gab es diese Option!

  2. Please allow links to use with other apps. I love that it works with websites and other documents. But other apps also would be wonderful

  3. There is an option to save our favorite font and size of a text, I think it would be lovely to have multiple favorites so that there would be more text boxes already edited as a quick access.

  4. If all Goodnotes files were saved alongside other files it would make it easier to store all files in one place and not have duplicates on Goodnotes and my Files app. I understand that Goodnotes make all files the .goodnotes format in order to save annotations and such, but I still think saving these Goodnotes formatted files in the Files app is far better as it gives a better way to view all my notes in once place and not have to import everything into Goodnotes. Maybe users can be given the option to convert PDFs to a Goodnotes format…

  5. Covers imported directly from the market place are able to be grouped by the same cover. Custom imports should be able to also be categorized with different color options all together under one cover, instead of having them all separate in the same group.

  6. It would be great to add an option where you can „secure“ a picture on a page

    So, sometimes I add pictures to my pages with exercises for my students. But then, when I want them to write answers on them, they accidentally touch some spot on the page and the picture moves and the writing is underneath and so on. I know it’s possible to add a picture as a new page but sometimes I add several pictures on one page. Just please give me the option to securely add a picture to the page.

  7. (For larger documents) allow a way to type the page you want to go to, instead of scrolling through (thumbnails) to find it

  8. I wish there was a feature that allows you to set a notification (not like the current one), but with a random question from a study set throughout the day, I would like to receive a notification to test myself at any time of the day. I think it would be very useful to maintain focus, even for those study sets that we have forgotten.

  9. This feature is the ultimate tool to make GoodNotes 5 'the' complete notes app.

    If these features were to be added, then it would be tremendously high ranking and even better than MS Notes and other famous apps. After 2 years on Campus my personal experience is that most students enjoy using GN5, rather MS apps. The most asked for question in my class is if they will add 'this' feature, because then it would make it complete and is quite decisively when it comes to math and physics.

    I am sure that this feature would excel as it is…

  10. Laser pen .....
    Doing rough Work with laser pen on document is good as a part of learning process
    But the only drawback is it gets vanished too soon i suggest Good notes team to atleast increase its disappearing time to 5- 6 seconds instead of existing 1-2 second when apple pencil is lifted up from screen :)

  16. Display highlighter colours as how they appear on the page of the notebook when used. I can never guess how the highlight colour will actually show up when I select it.

  17. When dragging symbolic links pointing to some PDF Files into the GN Window on the Mac, it simply does nothing, not even an error message. Dragging the PDF files works, but then they are imported with other names. Like other Unix-programs, GN should treat symbolic links the same as it does files.

  18. In the screenshot below I was linking the pages of my weekly readings for a class. I had the beginning of each week in the outline and wanted to access them by clicking on the text at the beginning like a table of contents. I had to link them by having the outline open on the side then scrolling to find the page on the other menu. I think it would be more efficient to just have the option to see bookmarked and outline drop a like and comment if you agree.

  20. Until now all flashcards are white but it would be good if we could change the color to improve studying.
