  2. Hidden Toolbar is designed to enhance note-taking experiences by allowing users to hide the toolbar and maximize their writing space. This feature is particularly useful for users who want to focus on their note-taking without any distractions

  3. It would be useful to add reverse mod in Card's Smart Revise Regime so you can choose not only by the question but by the answer too. Same idea is now realized in Training Regime.

  4. Save multiple text box presets
    Sometimes when text input is used.
    It's too troublesome to adjust the style, font size and color of the text box back and forth.
    For example, if you want to use the writing of headline, subtitle and body part, you can't switch quickly
    Now that you can save the style as the default, why not add more save fields.
    Switch quickly like a pen

  5. To use Goodnotes under MacOS with a Wacom tablet, a hide cursor feature would be absolutely mandatory. Write from styluslabs has such a feature. It is actually rendering handwriting impossible if there is always this crosshair cursor present.

  6. Clicking on Documents or Favorites in the MacOS-App while being deeper in their folder structures doesn't return you to their respective root folder.

    I'd like to see the same behavior implemented as in the iPadOS-App where you do return to the root folder.

    Thank you for your work!

  7. The creation of the market place where we could buy the designs of other creators, which is a great chance to support creators. However other apps are required to design and build the functionality of these planners, as the necessary tools are not available within goodnotes. The addition the necessary tools to your app will allow individual users to design their own planners specific to their needs, will expand on the creativity and personalisation of the planners, expanding on who can create planners without needing other apps to do so.

  8. I previously submitted feedback that it would be nice for goodnotes beta to be able to import pdf files. I got the response that this is already possible but after multiple tries and lots of googling I found out that this still isn't the case. So hereby I try again.

  10. My suggestion is to add a feature that enables changing the size, font, color etc of individual words within the same text box, without affecting the formatting of the entire text. This would provide more flexibility and precision in formatting text, and make it easier to create professional-looking documents.

  11. The surface duo 2 is a unique android device that allows for pen input just like the other surface devices. This would be ideal for taking notes on the go.

  12. When checking the answer in smart learning mode, I would like you to choose the action in which the card is turned back. Although the action of the card turning backwards is intuitive, it is difficult because it takes a long time to keep checking multiple things.

    Thank you!

  15. When working on an exercise sheet it is annoying to go back and forth between the sheet and the extra page you're writing on. It would be amazing if goodnotes had boxes that you can add right on the exercise sheet which can be collapsed to hide / expanded to edit so you have the (potentially long) solution you wrote right next to the exercise.

  16. I have currently switched to goodnotes from notability. The problem I am facing in Goodnotes is, while writing my palm touches the bottom navaigation bar (big bar to naavigate to home screen and recent apps) and the pen doesn't work while my palm touches the bar. It happens quite happen. And it is creating very disturbance for me.
    In notability, while the pen is active and writing is on, the navigation bar stops rendering touch and it fades as pen is working on the screen.
    So my request is, Please add the feature to auto hide the bottom navigation bar…

  17. Allow goodnotes to auto create a folder where all the cards you need to smart review are allocated automatically each day so you don't need to dish through all your work to find them

  19. A flat marker pen like for flipcharts would be really great. For the highligter and the writing pen.

    Also a streamline option (with the ability to set the strongness of the streamline) for the pens and highlighters would be also great to smooth out the handwriting. Just like you can set it in procreate.

    Thanks a lot!

  20. Sometimes I forget to stop the recording when a meeting takes a 15 mins break…I then end up with an extra long recording that could be shortened if we had the ability to edit. This ability would also be useful if there are sections of a meeting that we don’t need and want to bookmark the important sections.
