  1. I’ve been using notesplus and it has the option of drawing a circle instead of going to the toolbar to select the laso/lazo. If there’s no intention of moving the content rounded, it automatically becomes the circle you have drawn.

  2. Allow to create a hierarchy of bleeding in the schematics of documents, as in imported pdfs.

  4. App is almost perfect! Would love the ability to choose which functions appear in the phone version due to the limited real estate... like pen, shape & camera all next to each other... thanks!

  6. Sehr geehrtes GoodNotes-Team,
    Erstmal ein Riesen großes Dankeschön- mir als Medizinstudentin erleichtert Ihre App auf meinem IpadPro 12.9 (Version 2020) wirklich das Leben !
    Eine ganz große Bitte habe ich allerdings an Sie. Es wäre wirklich sehr sehr viel effizienter und übersichtlicher für mich als Nutzerin, wenn es möglich wäre PDF-Dateien so zu importieren, dass mehrere Seiten auf einer Seite zu sehen sind. Wenn ich alles nur als eine Seite in GoodNotes importiere ist das sehr schnell sehr unübersichtlich und außerdem weniger praktisch bezüglich der Zeichentools!
    Leider muss ich derzeit jede Vorlesung erst auf meinem Computer mit dem Print-to-PDF-Tool vorbereiten,…

  8. It doesn't always let me switch color when typing. If I switch to a different color in text mode, it always switches back to the previous color I used. Please fix this!!!

  9. Please add the feature to Read and write a comments on imported PDF documents. Allow this feature in general as not everything can be written in a single page and this feature will allow to put little details on a small box which only opens when clicked. This is also great for productivity.

  10. Having to crop, then click screenshot, then click export, and then click copy just to copy images of a pdf or other items is time consuming.

    A more direct to the point action of being able to copy once in the crop box would be better instead of 4 actions to do one thing

  11. If you realize that you want your handwriting in another line thickness you have no option changing it after you already wrote it. You can change the color but not the line.

  12. The BOOK of PDF version has cover and table of contents, which will lead to the inconsistency between the page number displayed in the software in the bottom right corner and the page number in the book catalog, which will cause great inconvenience to turn the book, so there should be the function of custom page number to customize the first page

  13. Could you please add a search function into the trash area so we can search trashed notebooks - we search using job numbers so this would be very handy in this area as well.

  14. In imported PDF drawings generated in autoCAD standard SHX type text is surrounded by a thick black frame, destroying the appearance of the drawing.
    This does not happen in acrobat for iOS.

  15. Simple: instead of just having the lasso that you have to painstakingly use to circle handwriting, convert each page to text, and then export to another program to edit, why not...
    ...have a button that instantly converts the entire handwritten document into text, ready to edit/export?

  16. Being able to have free movement of the page, e.g. the left corner of the page on the right side of the screen, because currently what is happening is that the page snaps back to the center when you try to do that.

    Say you want to write some text on the far left side of the screen so you want to move the page to the right, well currently you can't...

  18. A way where one could zoom out of the pages, so you could see all of your pages in that file. Like in Word/Pages.

  19. Could we have a mode that defaults to simple shapes for the shape tool? My handwriting is terrible... but if I draw something that remotely looks like a rectangle, I want it to be a rectangle, not some other weird shape.

    So maybe only allow circles, squares, rectangles, triangles? Something along these lines...

  20. It's really annoying that text boxes move along my hand when I just wanna edit some contents.

    It would be nice to be able to fix each text boxes, not to move while dragging, editing or sth.

    e.g. when pressing a text box, option for 'fix' and 'unfix' could be possible.

    ((sorry, i'm not good at english.))
