  1. It has been mentioned before, but it's worth repeating: Searching within specific folders would be incredibly helpful on the GoodNotes note-taking app. GoodNotes is an excellent note-taking app that works well on all systems, and it would be even better if it could be used across all platforms, including Windows. Improving the search function would be a significant improvement for everyone, especially those who rely on the app for note-taking.

    Furthermore, it would be fantastic if an online collection of documents could be created. This would allow users to access their records through a secure login on a website. Finally,…

  2. The flashcards are blurry in learning modus. Thus, when you have written a little bit more on the cards, you are not able to read it anymore.

    Further, it would be nice to have the possibility to classify each flashcard (with a little menu on the right hand side of each flash card). Then you could add for example all vocabularies and assign them to each chapter. When you enter the learning modus, you could tick the chapters which you want to learn.

    In the end, a little summary of your learning would be nice. (How many ended at which…

  4. It would be cool to have access to my GoodNotes across different devices by logging in to the app/website with a username and password in case I don’t want to/can’t use iCloud.

  5. Having a small toolbar on the side that contains user’s favorite pens, highlighter, etc… will be able to add new colors to the favorite bar, and able to adjust the order of the pens on the favorite bar.

  7. Please consider a feature to add URL links to images or elements on notes.

    A link feature is a very good feature for digital notebooks.
    Currently GoodNotes 5 supports link feature only inline text links.

    When we want to link a URL to an image to create a button to jump to a website, paste an image, add an invisible text (whitespaces) onto it. and create a link on it.
    It makes a lot of trouble since invisible text is tough to handle.

    It will be very nice if attaching links directly onto images or elements on page.

    Thanks for…

  9. I take a picture of a bathroom and use goodnotes to draw simulations of furniture and tiles etc. on top of the image i.e. the straight lines on the image does not align with the straight lines on the grid paper (due to optics, angles, wide-angles, etc.)

    Quite often, it is impossible to draw the correct straight line exactly from the correct points on the image e.g. floor corner to ceiling corner, because Goodnotes insist on snapping the line to the underlying grid.

    I wish I could completely disable all snap-to-grid functionality.

    thanks for a great app!

  10. Hi! So it would be really nice if there was a sign in/log ing option. This way, every user could sign in a device and have all the documents there without the need of exporting the data. This doesn't mean to delete the sync option with other apps like Google Drive or OneNote, but it would be nice. For example, if you buy a new iPad, you wouldn't have to export de data from the GoodNotes app from your old iPad to the new one, you should only sign in in your new iPad and all your documents would be…

  13. Recommend adding a multi-touch free rotation function with zoom capabilities to facilitate page customization and enhance user experience, such as filling out forms with horizontal and vertical fields. Example of this feature can be observed in Zinnia application for iOS and iPadOS.

  17. Have the option to zoom in the collections to verify the stickers instead of posting each one to find the one that I'm looking. It would be great if can be in the Mac app and iPad app.

  19. I work as a civil engineer in a paperless office. I have to deal with a lot of construction plans and for me it is important to be able to take measurements from those plans or draw in exact measurements. So I would be very pleased if a ruler, which can be set to a certain scale (e.g. 1:50) could be added to GoodNotes. Currently I have to resort to a pdf-software on my PC, which disrupts the workflow.
