  2. Much like Canva, have the ability to import SVG images to use as stickers with the option to change the sticker colors, like Canva does (it can change up to 5 colors).

  3. I write with my palm resting on the right side of my iPad, but when a line I've written reaches the right side, I am suddenly writing with my palm on the table. I'd like an option that supports moving the page off-center to the left and having it stay there, so I can continue writing without shifting my hand.

    For comparison to another drawing/writing app, Procreate canvases let you do this.

  5. Hello,

    I am a surface user and I am currently studying full time. I take physics and maths so the ability to write on my screen is essential when taking notes in lectures.

    Unfortunately there is a distinct lack of note taking software available to use. The most apt, Microsoft journal lacks simple functionality like a ruler function.

    A well designed software such as goodnotes would definitely fill that gap in the market.

    Would goodnotes ever be released to other platforms?

    Yours,
    A frustrated windows user

  7. I love GoodNotes and have been using it for several years. I also use GoodNotes for workshops and presentations. Therefore, I've got many large PDF's in the database.

    My problem is, that the GoodNotes database (synchronized with iCloud) already has more than 26 GB. This fills up both my iPad and my Mac.

    I'd love the functionality to be able to view and sort all files by size (without folders), check the largest files, and delete them in a bulk action. This would really help!

    I assume that other passionate GoodNotes users have the same problem.

    Thank you,

    Stefan

  8. Wenn man die Lernkarten auf dem Smartphone (in meinem Fall iPhone) durchgeht und mehre Zeilen auf der Karte stehen kann man diese nicht scrollen, zumindest nicht im vertikalen modus. Wenn man sein Handy kurz horizontal stellt geht es und dann auch im vertikalen Modus. Bei der nächsten Karte geht es dann wieder nicht und man muss es erneut drehen.
    Das ist sehr nervig beim lernen, es wäre schön wenn dieser Buck gefixt wird.

  9. It would be great so that in your notebook you could have the option to create a sub section so that when you import documents or have a subject within a notebook with a few pages on, it which can be scrolled through

  10. Mir gefällt an GoodNotes sehr, dass man das Cover des Notizbuches selbst gestalten kann.
    Für die Struktur arbeite ich jedoch lieber mit den Ordnern.
    Deshalb wünsche ich mir, dass man die Icons der Ordner ebenfalls selbst gestalten könnte oder zumindest in verschiedenen Farben wählen könnte.

    —————————

    What I really like about GoodNotes is that you can design the cover of the notebook yourself.
    However, I prefer to work with the folders for the structure.
    That's why I wish that you could also design the folder icons yourself or at least choose different colors

  13. Hoping Study Flash card will have some features to include audio recording function to capture spoken words to help reviewing the spelling cards .

    Currently, the flash cards are merely visual cues.

  14. To be able to have a deck of flash cards as an option when creating new files. Would be great for studying ! keeping everything localized on goodnotes is optimal and removes the need of users to relocate to other sites/apps

  15. When collaborating on documents, sometimes it may be necessary to make a copy to make individual annotations. However, making a copy will not keep other annotations up-to-date/synced with the master/main copy. Thus, a feature allowing users to “fork” a document and keep it synced while adding their own edits in their forked document would be useful. This is important and especially essential for educational settings where a teacher or project leader may wish to distribute a template version for individuals to edit, but keep annotations or edits updates on all copies.

    A further extension to this would be the ability…

  16. Instead of showing just what is inside the folder when you click on view notes in list form, show the previous folders that contains file like in computer and allow to adjust the file icon size with a bar.

  17. I take my notes on my IPad, but study on my Windows PC. Everytime I‘m forced to convert my notes to PDF and upload them to a cloud to be able to download and view them on the Windows PC. It‘d be amazing to have an application for Windows to sync, view and maybe edit my notes there.
    If it‘s not possible to create an application for Windows, could you develop an online app where I can view my notes, that are taken with the IPad, on my Windows PC?
    Maybe based on the example of OneNote

  19. The other thing, as soon as you type somewhere beside the Flashcard-frame you’re cicked out from the cards and have to start again - this is really enjoying!
