  1. Allow to recognize all the languages added. I usually combine Spanish and English notes in the same page. I can configure only one language by page.

  2. I know it’s a new feature, but I’d love to see a wishlist or save option for the shop. Also maybe a shop on the website or off of the app also. Ultimately some way to see and be able to compare certain items before you buy them based on what you are looking for

  3. The interactive comment annotation feature has recently been made available in GoodNotes. However, it is currently only possible to type comments with the keyboard. It would be nice to be given the possibility to add hand-written interactive comment annotations.

  4. It would be awesome to have the possibility to save an individual color palette for typed texts just like it is for handwritten texts. At the moment there’s just the option to save one explicit favourite text style respectively text color.

  5. What would be great would be a feature where you could insert a Cartesian plane and type 1 or more functions in a field for them to then be drawn on top. This would be harder than implementing parabola or trigonometry templates but the result would look far better then a hand drawn option and will be more accurate. Looking at some notes in the community section it's clear to see that a lot of people would benefit from such a feature.

  6. There must be an evolution in terms of sound recording. I hope you put an accelerator, and I also want it to press the note that I wrote and get me to the note instead of searching for the exact time in which the note was written.

  9. I saw that the Windows app beta has been released, I downloaded it and I saw that it is a webapp "hosted" by microsoft edge. I advise you to consider developing the app using Node.js and Electron.js, a fantastic library for creating webapps with HTML, CSS and Javascript. It can also be compiled for windows and all linux distributions. I hope this advice has been useful for the development of this fantastic app. It would be great having GoodNotes even on Linux!

  11. Imagine having a 'Recall/Study Mode' where you can use a specialized tool to highlight text, and once highlighted, the text vanishes, leaving a blank space in its stead. When you click on that blank space, the hidden word reappears, and clicking it again conceals the word once more. Essentially, it transforms into a mini flashcard or fill-in-the-blank feature!

  13. When jumping to a specific page, Good notes is using its own count of page numbers, which often differs from the count the document is using, especially for scientific literature. This leads to the reader having to write down two page numbers for reference, one for the scientific quote and one to actually find the quote again using the "jump to page" option. A great option would be to adjust this manually, e.g. telling good notes "this is Page 72", so the actual page numbers of the document can be used as reference.

  14. In case of a big book it’s really hard to navigate through pages. Even though there is an option in the bar to switch to a different page, it is time taking. You can just add an icon below or allow the user to tap the page number notification below to quickly switch to a particular page number as in Xodo and other apps. Otherwise it’s really time consuming.

  17. 你好,请参考截图,开发“笔记模式”!
    此功能更适合作笔记,尤其是需要对照课本时,比“输入模式”更实用。

  18. Please… can you add support for UK localised English? “Favorites” is spelt “Favourites” in the UK. I cry a tiny bit inside every time I see that missing letter “u”. It’s a tiny thing, but would make a huge difference…! Thanks so much.

  19. The new feature for writing over the whole page definitely needs adjustable fonts, as well as writing exactly in the lines of the template

  20. This used to not be a problem until a week ago but since the update for more pen colors on the toolbar, the pen thickness is now behind two tap s, one to open the menu and the second to select the thickness. This has affected my usual work flow and it’s more tedious than I thought it would be initially.

    Also the addition of more colors on the toolbar is not ideal for me since I just like to work with three colors to keep everything simple and clean (the UI also feels more cluttered to me for some…
