  1. The search function within GoodNotes is a failed system. Anyone who has used GoodNotes and Notability knows that the search function of Notability is FAR superior. You can search for phrases, search within specific dividers and subjects, etc.

    If I were to search for “green house gases” in GoodNotes it would pull up every result for “green,” “house,” and “gases” in every single note stored within GoodNotes. It turns something that should produce 5-10 results into 500 results and renders the search completely useless.

    All I’m asking for is the ability to place words in brackets and pull the results…

  2. It would be nice if you use a sticker of a sticky note (for example) and you write on it you can select this sticker with the writing on it without selecting the text underneath the sticker. Just like in real life, you write something on a sticky note, stick it in your notebook and then remove it again without removing what's in your notebook.

  4. Changing the color of all a specific color. An example being able to change all the color red on a page/throughout the notebook into blue. Having to lasso colors to change it can be a slow process, so it would be nice if we could do it with a few clicks.

  5. I know ms word has this function but it would be really great if we could type arrows like insert symbol in MS Word.
    I know writing is the best way to remember, but sometimes I don’t have time to write slowly then being able to type a symbol is really helpful….. especially when you have a lot of notes to make.

  9. As my (and other's) studying method requires a lot of colours, I would like to be able to change the highliter or pen colour faster. So, I'm suggesting something like a detachable grid for colour selection or an option which allows me to visualize more than 3 rapid colour choices in the main bar (for instance, hiding through the settings menu the unused tools to make room for the ones that I use more frequently).
    In other words, I would like to customize my tool bar and make it more efficient to meet my specific needs. Is this possible?
    Thank…

  11. You can add a ruler feature, were you can draw straight lines and see the angle. There could be a centimeter display, which shows how long this line would be in ,,real“ life.

  18. I HATE that even though I’m using the lasso tool and have images and text boxes turned OFF, if I accidentally tap on either it will allow me to edit it. This is so annoying.

  19. It would be great to be able to add writing to the diagrams in the study sets- I was able to quickly add photos from power points into the "add image" mode with the three icons at the top of the page but after making a bunch of flashcards realized that when I clicked the pen icon the diagram disappeared and I couldn't get it back! It would be more efficient to write on the diagram versus having to upload a photo from the camera roll to write on it. It would be nice to be able to write on…
