  1. It would be cool to have the option of logging into the app and have everything saved in my account in case I don’t want to/can’t use iCloud.

  2. It would be great if we can select formats such as images, text, links, when pasteboard has multiple format of items.

  3. There have been times when I've searched for a specific word that I've written (for an example) on 3 different pages in the same notebook, I would only see one or two of the results and not all.
    I want to add that the words were typed and not handwritten.
    Each time this happens, I first have to swipe through the pages to find it and then I triple-check the spelling.
    And every time, the spelling is correct, but when trying to test it out and search again, it fails to capture all the times that word was typed in…

    1. 테스트 중 스터디카드 수정 기능 추가
    2. 매일 정해진 테스트를 하다보면 스터디카드를 수정해야하는 때가 생깁니다. 지금은 스터디 카드를 수정할 수 있는 기능이 없어서 불편하네요ㅠㅠ

    3. 이미지를 불러와서 카드로 만드는 섹션으로 스터디카드를 만들고 테스트할 경우, 필기가 불가능합니다. 테스트중에 이미지에 필기를 추가해야할 때가 종종 있습니다. 기존에 있던 이미지를 복사해서 필기가 가능한 세번째 섹션에서 수정할 수 있게 기능을 수정해주세요~!

  4. Ability to create outlines of documents like books , using AI rather than manually creating every single outline for easy accessibility of the subtopics or chapters within a document.

    Also the ability to copy and paste outlines from one document to another should be there.

  5. Sometimes there is a red unread counter on the shop icon and you have to click into the shop to dismiss it. It's distracting and it's a form of advertising.

    I understand the ads if this is a free app, BUT I paid for the full app so I would prefer to be able to disable this sort of stuff.

    So please implement the option for users to disable the badge or disable the shop altogether (at least for paid users).

  6. I really like the new update with the flashcards and things you've improved on.

    However I noticed that I am unable to view the flashcards all at once like a notebook.

    !! I would love it if you can implement a feature where you can just see all flashcards on the thumbnails like you would with a notebook.

    When you have a lot of flashcards it's time consuming to find a single one of them if you want to change something.

    !! The search has yet to be implemented.

    Not on laptop, nor on mobile. I hope you can implement…

  7. Use shape recognition to snap to mathematical shapes like summation ∑ or gradient or even Greek letters. To clarify, not to convert to text, but to keep as writing when writing equations by hand.

  8. Since the external display support has been published for the newer Ipad pro models, it would be great to have usage of it. For now it always opens the good notes file in full screen on your external monitor when you try to open it on your ipad to work on a note. Fixing that would be a great improvement for the workflow with external monitors.

  9. I hope you consider the zoom writing page on the right side. Just to let you know, I’m using 2 windows just to write. And I’m writing this way, as it is more convenient. Lol and the tools should be on the right side too, when this happens - for convenience.

  10. People have been asking for this since at least 2019. I felt the need to report since it is halfway through 2022 and there still is only 3 colours. There is a lot of unused space in the top par, even in smaller iPad models. There is space for at minimum 6 colours. Having to switch back and forth makes note taking a lot less efficient. GoodNotes is far behind. Notability allows us to add a large numb of favourite pens/highlighters and dag the fact bar across the screen. It is difficult to justify using GoodNotes when colour coding while…

  12. For example, I have different colours for Cornell-styled templates uploaded in the same Group of Templates.
    If I were to drag open a new page when I am writing on a Notebook, it would be cool and existing if the next colour is randomised.

  13. Wenn ich ein Dokument einscannen will und das Dokument in Querformat ist wird es im GoodNotes immer ein Hochvormat erstellt. Cool wäre, wenn das Vormat beim einscannen übernommen wird.

  14. I would love to be able to write or add text on the folders icon, or have different patterns or colours. This would be helpful to quickly and easily distinguish folders from each other

  15. Text Box for MacOS another fix.

    The mouse coursor on MacOS doesn't change when hovering over the dot to resize the text box. So you have no indication if you are resizing or not. it continues to show the insert text cursor.

  17. Basically, Good Note UI is for Student Note. So Page Size is not Flexable ( It has Empty Parts of App )
