  2. Seeing size of each note/document/folder/notebook in GoodNotes

    It would be very helpful to see the size (in MB, GB, etc.) of each note/document/folder/notebook in GoodNotes. That way, we can see which files can be deleted to recover more space on our devices and on iCloud.

  3. Customize pen settings (pressure, stability)

    I'm a bit of a perfectionist with my handwriting, its an issue. But I would love custom pen settings similar to Procreate Brush Studio for smoother pen flow, especially since I have very jittery over-caffeinated hands haha. Specifically for ball point pen! See attachment for my example of what I consider "smooth" pen flow; note starting/ending pressure points. Examples of settings would include stroke properties, jitter, stabilization, pressure sensitivity, streamline, etc.

  4. comment

    The comments should be searchable in GoodNotes!!
    Comments is a very useful way to take notes, thus I write many of my thoughts in comments. However, I find I can’t search for my comment in GoodNotes, which cost me a lot of time to search my notes. I hope the the contents inside the comments can be searched.

  5. Follow edits being made when listening to audio recording

    Being able to show where edits are being made, like in the corner it says the page number of where you were writing at that moment in the audio reocording, would be helpful

  7. Vertical Writing and Typing

    I am using this application in Japanese.
    Japanese has horizontal writing (top left to right) , like English, etc., and vertical writing (top right to bottom). Currently, it is very difficult to input text in vertical writing mode, so I would like you to add a ruled note for vertical writing. Also, if possible, we would appreciate it if you could add support for input mode.
    Please implement this in the Goodnote Shop, even if it is sold for a fee.

  8. Eye dropper

    A eye dropper for the pen and high lighter because a lot of people use this app to study or for calendars (including myself) and some people like to group things with high lighters or underline and it’s pretty hard going back and checking if you got the right color or if it’s slightly lighter or darker especially with the highlights

  9. We need the ability to export audio files

    The addition to recording on GoodNotes is fantastic, I have used it so much recently. However, the audio files are linked to the entire notebook with just the date and length. I want to attach it to just one page, or one section, and the ability to name and export the audio files is necessary.

    Having to dig through all the audio files to find the one I'm looking for is very inefficient and defeats the purpose of recording while taking meeting notes.

  10. Writing on ruler

    My handwriting is so messy that I write with a ruler in daily life. I tried it with the ruler on the screen, and it’s not possible.
    The words are ‘sucked’ like a magnet to the ruler and automatically draws a line.

    It would be soooooo nice to be able to have the ruler not be ‘magnetic’ and write on it.

    I can’t read my own handwriting without ruler and it looks very very stupid when I’m holding a real life ruler against my ipad screen in meetings…

  12. Improved Text Box

    indent feature
    - allow bulleted items to have multiple different horizontal start locations
    - "tab" key on keyboard asks like indent button
    - select / highlight bulleted items, click tab key or indent button --> goodnotes indents selected lines (instead of deleting them)
    - click tab key or indent button, type "- " to create a new bulleted item --> goodnotes begins a new list item indented one level inwards

    improved line spacing option
    - line spacing could automatically align with the lines on the default papers (like the graph paper)
    - input value instead of slider

    specific "list" feature…

  14. Faster browsing! View Thumbnails Page within file Browser

    Hello,

    It would be convenient when looking through the document file browser, if there was an easy way to view the thumbnails of a document without opening the document. I have so many documents in goodnotes, and currently I have to open a document and then open the thumbnails view and then close the document each time i want to see whats inside a document.

    It would be a lot easier if there was a button in the file browser to open the thumbnail view, without opening the document. Then if i want to open the document, maybe there could…

  15. Tapping flash cards in study sets to write.

    Having to tap each field of a flash card to start writing on it in study sets edit mode is so inconvenient that it is faster to write the cards as a normal flash card file and then convert it into study sets. Please provide an option allowing users to instantly write new flashcards without tapping. Love the app!

  16. Timer for flashcards!

    Add a timer to flashcards.
    For example, I can create a timer so that I have 10 seconds to answer the flashcard before the answer is displayed.

  19. Import external app annotations

    Currently, in the GoodNotes app, annotations made in other note-taking apps like Apple's native Notes app are embedded into the PDF upon import, making them uneditable within the app. I would greatly appreciate it if you could make it possible to recognize and edit annotations within PDFs.
