  1. As I study, sometimes i have to take notes on an assignment and my class notes are filled with pages that are only for those assignment and when i revise my notes to study I don't need those. I think it would be great to be able to choose pages and hide them, so they don't bother me once i have already used them but if i need them i can use them again.

  2. As a piano teacher, I use GoodNotes for my student's lesson assignments and refer to other pages within that document (e.g. scale fingerings see pg. 7, chord voicings see pg. 11, etc). It would be nice if the pages could be accessed via a link to them without having to scroll through 12 pages; and then, if I add a page and page 7 becomes page 8, the link automatically updates to the pages new position within the document. This would be a game changer!

  4. Reorganisation. In notebooks you’re able to move pages around after creating them. You can’t do this for cards which seems weird. Would also be nice to create the same outlines with this feature.

  5. I'd like it to be easier to create curved lines. For example I'd like to be able to make a rectangle with rounded corners.

  6. When editing flashcards on my mac, once I'm done, I am no longer able to swipe through the cards, I have to exit and go back in to begin swiping through them again.

    Also please add the ability to star/bookmark certain flashcards and study the "starred" set. Thanks!

  7. Enable to add voice memos just like stickers in Goodnotes…
    The voice memo will be placed on somewhere on your notes/ PDF, just like how Stickers/ Memo sheets does

    This is far better than the inbuilt voice recording, which only allows you to record in live.
    With this import function amd placement just like memos, ir certainly makes the experience wonderful

  9. It would be really useful with a feature which gives the opportunity to quickly jump from one page number to another random page by typing in the page number.
    The feature is already built in, but it requires too many taps to go through the menu and find it.

    I often have large PDFs in court with thousands of pages, and need to be able to jump from e.g. page 37 to 1754 really quick without too many taps.

  10. Automate AI that, when performing a search within a document, automatically includes OCR text and handwritten text. This may take a few seconds to render by request. Totally worth it.

  11. in Read-only mode I would like to have the option to flip sides with TWO fingers only. So the sides would not move when using only one finger (same function as in „edit mode“)

  12. I've seen your attempt to convert handwriting to equations and I love this idea. A word from a STEM student. Please leave an option to edit output manually using .tex. I will even pay additionally for such an option. Besides, it can improve your ML models, as most of the people that would use that, would probably be professionals which would make error detection far better.

  13. I cannot re-arrange the order of my study set. If i want to add a subsequent new card to a topic on e.g flashcard no.42, I need to delete every flashcard after no.42 to add that new relevant card. This wouldn't be an issue if the feature to re-arrange the cards existed.

  14. Add an option in settings where the pages flip over like a real book does. Like the iOS reading app does.

  17. I would love to have the ability to search just within a certain folder. I have a folder for each class, but being in vet school my classes overlap a lot. I would like to be able to search within a specific folder to be able to find info from just one class.

    Also with the new study set feature it would be great if we could have a search function within the study set just like any other Notebook

  18. I use GoodNotes for my mechanical engineering studies. For this it would be nice if a few more features were added.

    I would find the following features important:

    -ruler with a scale and angle setting

    -Predefined shapes (arrow, semicolon line, square, circle, etc...)

    -Mathematical paper templates (graph paper, squared paper with 5mm boxes)

  19. I use my iPad in portrait mode, and it bothers me a bit that I have to slide to choose another color, I don't have the need to use some tools, for example, the laser or stickers, I would like to be able to remove and add tools from the toolbar depends on your needs so that there is a little more space in the toolbar and not have to scroll to find the color I want

  20. Return the one touch thickness presets.

    I appreciate the new update, which enables me to add more than three colors options, but it has removed the quick selection function for changing the line thickness. I often change the line thickness and the updated version of GoodNotes turns this into a three-step process where the previous version This was just a one quick tap.
