  1. It would be helpful to edit the line width of a lined paper, or make some dotted lines and others dashed. Could also incorporate checkboxes and other areas on the paper that are customizable to each user. This would be helpful to have a basic template that can be editale for each user to their liking (ie: I like my lined paper to be wide ruled but also reach the full length of the paper from left to right)

  2. The current edition contains the folders in a very bland way without any typical sorting arrangement available. It would be better if the sorting options for folders was made a little different for a better looking and pleasing user interactive interface on the home page

  3. The default landscape photo size is such that I can't quite fit two across the width of a 8.5" x 11" sheet. It would be helpful if they were inserted a bit smaller so two would readily fit side by side.

  4. I used to be able to drag and drop PDFS from my MacBook to the Mac Goodnotes app on my laptop. I can no longer do this, which is really limiting my flexibility with the app. What has changed? I may need to shop for a different app, but I love Goodnotes otherwise.

    I also used to be able to click the share icon on any document, image, or PDF and open it directly in Goodnotes. Now my only option is to send it to my Files app on my iPad and then I have to import it from there.…

  6. Aktuell muss man bei der neuen Version wieder ganz zurück an Anfang. Ich vermisse, wenn ich eine Ordner öffne die Möglichkeit nur wieder zurück in den Ordner klicken zu können. Aktuell kann man nur auf das „Home“ Icon drücken und dann landet man wieder ganz am Anfang. Ich will mich aber in einem geöffneten „Unterordner“ wieder zurück bewegen können ohne dass ich dafür zurück in die Gesamtübersicht (Dokumente) muss und dann wieder einzelne Ordner öffnen muss um zurück zu dem bestimmten „Unterordner zu kommen zu dem ich eigentlich nur will.
    Früher gab es die Möglichkeit einfach nur einmal zurück zu…

  9. For researcher, we need free space to extract findings from article such as sentences, graph, picture, etc. and draw a line to define where they from.
    Moreover, Label 🔖 or tagged are needed.

  13. Goodnotes lacks granular cloud backup options, limiting users' control over their data.

    Solution:

    Implement granular backup options to allow users to:

    Choose specific folders and files for backup
    Choose where the specific folders are stored withing the cloud
    Define individual backup schedules
    Exclude folders and files from backup

  14. It's wonderful that there's now a ruler in GoodNotes. For math classes, it would be great if the grid paper aligned with it had a box width of 0.5 cm, and users wouldn't have to create this paper background themselves.

  15. Is it possible to change the size of the "|" cursor on a new note on a lined page? Right now it's vertically "long" and bleeds over to the other row. Looking at this from an accessibility perspective for a certain user. Thanks so much!

  16. The current flashcards are too small to view comfortably on a phone. When I edit the flashcards on my iPad and send them to my phone for convenience, the text size remains too small, making it difficult to read without looking very closely.

    Please make the flashcards bigger(at least 4/3 of the screen? ) and more accessible to view on the phone.

  18. I would like to be able to duplicate my files. They have links within the document. The problem is that the copied file links keep opening in the old file and do not link within the new document. This makes no sense to me. How do I fix this?

  19. Often, files in a folder are named after a similar pattern. It would be nice to have this as a optional feature for each folder. It should be rather easy to implement.
