  1. I often need to export my comments as PDFs for my workflow and records. Currently, I could not find a direct option to export comments in PDF format. I believe adding this feature would significantly improve user experience, as it is a simple yet powerful addition for documentation and sharing purposes.

    Could you please let me know if this feature is on your development roadmap, or if there is an alternative way to export comments as PDF for now?

    Thank you very much for your continuous support and improvement of the platform.

  2. Tape…Notability just published an update to allow something like white out tape that can be tapped to make transparent and then tapped again to ”reapply.”

    Teaching implications of such a tool are obvious and awesome.

    Please give us such a feature.

  3. Not every notebook is the same, being able to save font styles and sizes per notebook would be infinitely easier and would encourage people to buy different notebooks

  4. Hi.

    May I know if we have any ways that we can undo or redo for multiple times once? When we frequently erase and write things, if sometimes we realize the things go wrong and we need to get back to the original text we wrote, we usually need to press undo for loads of times.

    If there is currently no such a function can we set, for example, long pressing the undo for a continuous undo action so that we can easily stop nearby the past moment we want?

    Thanks!

  5. The Good Note UI is designated blue by default, and I want to change the UI with various colors. I hope they add theme features like this.

  7. What I need:
    • A blank “integrated notebook” shell we can start with
    • The ability to import my own PDF page or planner template
    • Fully working jump-links — which I already handle myself
    • Access to your under-the-hood integrations: date logic, calendar hookups, auto-navigation, to-dos, etc.
    • No fluff—no dated layouts, stickers, or templated design—just raw power and flexibility.

  8. In structures, you can choose wheter you want to see the PDF-structuring.
    Please save this decision, so you dont have to select it every time you open the document and want to look into your own structuring.
    (It is very annoying, please fix that)

  9. I want to be able to quickly take screenshots of portions of my lecture slides, copy them, and paste them elsewhere. Currently, the screenshot function takes 4 clicks: Lasso->screenshot->share->copy. It would be a lot easier if there was a way to Lasso a portion of the slide I want copied, and in one click copy ALL the contents of the lasso -- INCLUDING the slide itself, NOT JUST DRAWINGS/IMAGES/ETC.

  10. Einen Taschenrechner der automatisch das Ergebnis ausgibt wenn man ein = schreibt. So wie bei dem Apple Taschenrechner auf dem iPad der es in der eigenen Handschrift schreibt. Ich und meine Klasse in der uni würden das sehr feiern

  11. Currently, you have to use the lasso tool to highlight handwritten text, then click convert, then several more prompts. In Nebo, you merely have to double click. A quicker option (such as a double click) would make the process quicker and simpler (can retain current process).

  13. Adding masking tape functionality to pointer mode would be a valuable improvement for users who frequently conduct classes, seminars, or webinars.
    It would allow a more professional, fluid interaction with the displayed material and help maintain audience engagement.

  14. It would be much more convenient if masking tape could be used directly in pointer mode, without the need to change tools every time.
    This small change would greatly enhance efficiency, especially when delivering lessons or explanations that require continuous interaction with the displayed content.

  15. Please enable the masking tape feature to be opened and closed even when using pointer mode, as this would make presentations and lectures far more seamless.
    Currently, having to exit pointer mode just to manage masking tape causes an unnecessary break in focus and disrupts the continuity of the session.

  17. Ich würde mir wünschen, die Funktion des Masking-Tapes auch im Pointer-Modus öffnen und schließen zu können. Bei Unterrichtseinheiten oder Präsentationen möchte ich gerne das Masking-Tape verwenden und gleichzeitig mit dem Pointer auf Inhalte hinweisen. Derzeit ist es notwendig, vom Pointer-Modus in den Stiftmodus zu wechseln, um das Masking-Tape zu benutzen, was umständlich ist. Ich wäre sehr dankbar, wenn Sie diese Verbesserung in Betracht ziehen könnten.

  18. Lors de l’utilisation du mode pointeur, je souhaiterais pouvoir ouvrir et fermer la fonction masking tape. J’aimerais utiliser le masking tape tout en faisant des présentations ou des cours avec le pointeur. Actuellement, il est nécessaire de changer du mode pointeur au mode stylo pour utiliser le masking tape, ce qui rend l’opération fastidieuse. Je vous serais reconnaissant(e) d’envisager cette amélioration.

  19. Wouldn't it make more sense if the undo button was on the top right instead of the left? As a right-handed person, clicking on the undo button covers the whole screen and you can't see exactly what has already been removed. Its just annoying (goodnotes 6)

  20. Instead of having a limited number of colors on the color pallet and having to scroll to see all the colors.
    Have an option to only show top 5 colors with a drop down arrow beside it to see all other colors in our color pallet. That way, we can still see and have easy/ fast access to our stroke settings , as well as our pens colors instead of having to scroll back and forth.
    Just like how the hidden tools arrow is. A drop down like that for the color pallet
