  1. As a student I use my Goodnotes notes as a book and record each class, I love this feature but I would love to be able to organice the recording by date, and be able to see the Pages it belongs to. THANKS A LOT

  3. The pricing for the yearly version is pretty fair, but I would like the option to pay once for the current version of Goodnotes. It would also be good to have a discounted fee to upgrade to future versions of Goodnotes (e.x. moving from 5 to 6 when it comes out)

  4. Notion does this well but Goodnotes does not!

    I like having my system (mac, iPad) on darkmode but the actual application of light mode. It's too overwhelming for me to have Goodnotes loading up in dark mode because of the system.

    They need to the ability to make the app independent of the system settings.

  6. Quand on arrive à la fin d’une page, une nouvelle doit suivre automatiquement.
    Possibilité de figer une image, que le texte passe directement à la ligne si une image est a côté,…

    Un bouton qui nous permet de scroller avec le pencil

    Pouvoir créer une flèche,… directement et parfaitement.

    Permettre de choisir la police et la taille lors de la saisie de texte.

    Pouvoir enregistrer des factures pour les copier/ coller plus tard.

  7. I think Goodnotes is the best note-taking application out there and offers more features and ability than any of its competition, which is why I think that Goodnotes should do more for IT-Students. A code tool as an option for text-fields, enabling syntax-highlighting, video and website embeds, as well as a code preview would be amazing. Also I had this idea of being able to make automations, since AI can now write in our handwriting. Such automations could look like this:
    1. On every 10th page, a variable called date is placed 10 px from the top and the left.…

  9. Why not use Microsoft Notes app feature where user can tap anywhere on the page or canvas and start typing to freely “drop/appear” text on any spot of the page? Apply this principle to Cornell page layout space - leftmost column (make sure text don’t get cut off by page lines - reduce readability).

  11. I hope you can also add a pen that automatically erases over time.
    I think it would be good to use it when it's cumbersome to erase one by one or erase the page at once when solving a problem.

  13. Handwriting is distorted especially at the end of strokes where they appear shifted. At this stage only turning off Apple Pencil's hover feature seems to fix this issue.

  14. I use goodnotes in uni and have audio recording turned on during notes in my lectures. The thing I have noticed is that while helpful, for many of my classes, when I go to make refined notes it means i have to go back and listen to the whole lecture again (often pausing alot write down and catchup with things the prof said). This means that I often have to spend 2-3 hours on a one hour lecture just to get everything the prof said written down so I don’t miss anything. Thats alot of time dedicated to a class…

  15. It would be incredibly useful, to be able to customize the distancing of dots and lines in templates.

    In different countries we use different spacing of lines in ruled, squared and dotted paper. Especially when designing worksheets to be printed it would be great to be able to specify the distance to e.g. 0.5 cm.

  16. I purchased a few sticker packs and noticed that when downloaded to Elements the stickers are randomly sorted which makes it impossible to find stickers by category. The app currently does not include functionality to sort these easily. However it would make more sense that these were downloaded in the order of category of the sticker pack.

  17. To make space for the microphone/recording icon (perhaps for the sake of symmetry) the bookmark icon was removed. There is now no visual feedback of for a page being bookmarked.

    One on hand, I use this feature with my planner to add the current week to favorites for a quick retrieval. On the other hand I will never use the recording feature.
    My dismay at this new development is self evident and so is my wish for a future positive resolution for my quandry.

  20. ‘Speak (reading text)’ function should give more option of voices. The voice that Goodnotes uses now is so robotic. Feel hard to listen
