  1. I’d like to be able to change the line width for a drawn thing, with the Selector tool I can only change the color but not the thickness

  3. I use the index cards function on my IPhone 6S and it’s very small. I write the cards on my iPad so a function to zoom in the cards (learning mode) and/ore use them in landscape format ( work but in a very very small format) on the phone would be great. Tanks

  4. When you are creating a new document in goodnotes 5, all pages have the same size /relation, but if you import a new page there´s no option to adapting its size or relation to the other pages of the document and seems out of place. It would be ideal to be able to just have some options of this type.

  6. Project bars can be created when users select consecutive lines of text. After that, notes and comments marked can be displayed around the project bar linked with a point that is in accordance with the proportion where they were written in the selected article. In this way, users can make a logical combing in order to have an idea of the structure in a vivider way. Click the point, users can go back to the corresponding part in text.

  7. Your app is great, but your latest update removed the big keyboard and forced users to type on a tiny keyboard the same size as our phones. Can you please make it an option to keep the big keyboard? I spend enough time as it is trying to henpeck sentences on my phone.

  8. Often time, I want to quickly insert 1 image and go back to the pen tool. It would be great if the image tool auto-deselect and revert back to the pen like the eraser tool could

  9. When we watch pdf, especially textbook or something we need to write many notes on GoodNotes, it doesn’t have enough spaces to make notes on that. So Hopefully we could use something like real ‘sticky notes’ which allow us to ‘stick’ our notes on pdf. When we click it, it maximum and shows like a real sticky notes, click again to minimize it to save space.

  14. Please add the feature to solve maths stuff. your program can detect numbers, why not implement a calculator? work together with other brands. I dont really care just add the feature. to detect whether you want to solve something you could add a shortcut a a symbol you have to write first, like a = with another line maybe

  15. If you've done enough research into analysing your competitors I'd assume you've heard of Notion's toggle feature. I love it, if it's not rocket science, just hire a Harvard Comp Sci major and get it sorted. Cheers Goodnotes

  17. I would love an option for more smooth and streamlined handwriting like in procreate. I use GoodNotes mainly for handwriting and sometimes writing on an iPad can get a little wobbly

    1. Reverting works for the whole document - even if I on the second page by reverting I can clean up the first one. It’s really annoying.

    Would be nice to have reverting working for each page rather than the whole document

    1. By some accidental reverting or just inaccurate editing I can lose data or put some new edits I was not intended to but I won’t notice it right away.

    Would be nice to have an ability to lock a page from editing or reverting

  18. I really love the good notes app but the experience if often frustating when I'll have to erase something. I think if there is a functionality like strike to erase it will be of lot of ease , it has to be like I scribble on the text and the text gets erased
