  2. Bezier Curves would be handy especially for engineering students, any shape like rectangle and circle would be great.

  5. I recently switched from Notability to Goodnotes, I enjoy this app but I found the centering tool to be very helpful on Notability. I like my notes to be as clean as possible so I’d greatly appreciate it if some type of action was to be done for this to happen!

  7. Let us being able to add LaTeX expressions as a TEXT input.
    You can either render it using mathjax, katex, ...

    Reason :
    The recognition gets really confused and is pretty much unusable for serious mathematics ( people who study mathematics ) : integrals, sets with subscripts, norms, ...

  8. It would be nice if we can minimize the toolbar or even hide it. The current toolbar is taking too much space especially in landscape mode.

  10. Ability to create sub folders or sections in a study set. I don’t really want to have 20 sets for 1 subject as that means having to move in and out of sets when building them for a single exam with multiple sections. But I’d like the ability to better organise my cards within sets as the nature of flash cards is you need many with bite sized info thus it gets a bit cluttered.

  11. Please audio recordings need some basically feature to be implemented, otherwise their use is almost impossible.
    1 first of all, there is no point in showing in the time bar all recordings at the same time. Just show the corrent track, otherwise it is almost impossible to navigate to a specific point
    2 It is equally important to have the possibility to rename the recordings. It is so difficult find the right records just from the order or the date

    these 2 are the critical iussues. Other good feature may be add the possibility to export audio files, change the…

  12. Please allow us to have options to send things forward and backwards. It would be extremely useful.
    For example, when you first write some text, and then you want to put a sticker or element underneath it. To do this, you insert the sticker or element but it goes above your text awkwardly (since layers are automatically done chronologically). To send the bubble back, you really don't have an option to, so you can either rewrite the text or move the bubble away and use the lasso tool to copy and paste ur text so it is moved to the…

  13. Add back the favorites to the top left tool bar on iPad version. When studying, the little red ribbon that lights up when the slide is marked as a favorite tells me I need to spend more time understanding the material. I really miss this feature.

  14. Flashcards Zoom

    There are already a couple of hands full entries to the same subject “Zoom function” with Flashcards.

    Unfortunately each entry has some Thumbs - all together would be many!

    Actually Zoom is really important, is critical because often you can not read their cards because everything is to small.

  15. I use GoodNotes daily in landscape and the toolbar takes up nearly 20% of the screen.

    A piece of paper doesn't have a toolbar, and already has much more area than an iPad screen.

    I want to click an arrow to bring it down when I need it as a lot of the time I don't.

    Please implement this as soon as possible so I can get the most out of this brilliant application. Thanks.

  17. Please implement adding of GIFs. I know there are people suggesting this before but there hasn't been any updates so I'm posting here. It would be great if users would be able to add GIFs directly through a platform like Giphy in the app and adding of GIFs via gallery like how users import photos/stickers. I have been switching between goodnotes and notability for a few years now since only notability allows GIFs but goodnotes would definitely be the only app I would use if it lets users to add GIFs. Please consider adding this feature. Thank you.

  19. Pasting a large text copied from another source into goodnotes doesn’t automatically moves to the next pages. Only workaround for this is to copying small parts and paste and then move to next page and continue like this. Text should automatically move to next pages if the area is insufficient for that page.
