  1. The floating on-canvas tool palette that shows up when I squeeze my Apple Pencil Pro should show the tool options popup when I double tap a tool on it, just like the main toolbar.

  4. Please add the option to be able to scroll past the margin. Right now, it is very inconvenient to write at the bottom / right side of the page, since your hand is on the edge of the iPad. Let us move the page up past its border for easier writing

  6. It would be really helpful to have a scrollbar that makes it quicker to scroll through long documents or notebooks. A simple, draggable bar would make navigation much more efficient.

  7. Currently, when jumping to a different page, the “Return to Previous Page” button disappears after scrolling about half a page forward.

    Often, when studying, I follow references in the text by using Goodnotes’ internal links to jump to a previous page. However, if the referenced content spans multiple pages, I need to read through those pages before returning. By the time I finish reading and attempt to go back, the “Return to Previous Page” button has already disappeared, making navigation inconvenient.

    Alternatively, a different approach, like Kindle’s system of keeping multiple jump history records, would be even…

  8. Currently, when adding a link, the input field is pre-filled with an actual URL instead of a placeholder.
    This requires manually deleting the existing text before entering a new link, which is inconvenient.

    I would like the input field to display a placeholder instead of an actual URL by default. This would improve usability and streamline the process of adding links.

  9. Being able to adjust the pen opacity so you get multiple shades of one color without lifting the pen and can see overlap. This really helps make notes look more realistic and aesthetically pleasing. I use max opacity on procreate and it’s perfect.

  10. A scrollable, infinite page (like in Word or Google Docs) would make typing much smoother and more practical for longer notes.

  11. I’ve been using GoodNotes 6 on my iPad Air 11-inch M2 with iPadOS 18.3.2 and while I love the app’s handwriting tools and organization, there’s one feature missing that I’ve found incredibly useful in both Microsoft OneNote and Apple Notes: auto-scrolling pages. Right now, when I’m writing in GoodNotes, I have to manually drag the page to move to the next section or page, which feels clunky and interrupts my flow—especially during long note-taking sessions like lectures or brainstorming.

    In both OneNote and Apple Notes, the page automatically scrolls as I write near the edge, seamlessly expanding the canvas or…

  12. A two-way sync would allow me to synchronize the data over multiple devices.
    This means that a backup on Nextcloud can be restored without the need to import each document separately.

    Additionally, it allows the user to share documents with others and sync any changes made to the document.

    This would a huge productivity boost for

  15. How accurate is GoodNotes' handwriting recognition feature for searching through your notes?

    Factors Affecting Accuracy: Handwriting recognition accuracy in GoodNotes varies depending on factors like handwriting style, the clarity of the pen strokes, and the language used. If a user has very neat, uniform handwriting, the recognition will generally be more accurate. However, for more stylized or inconsistent handwriting, accuracy may decrease. For example, cursive writing might be harder to decipher compared to block letters.

  17. Add the ability to create internal links to a specified bookmark rather than just a page number. So that if I add pages in the middle, all my bookmarks don't break.

    Right now if I add pages in the middle all my links change to "deleted page" and I have to rebuild them on every single page.

  19. A button that scrolls back to the first page automatically. This would make for a very smooth experience. Could be implemented like a floating button, similar to the one in the Reddit phone app.

  20. when you type in a study set (with keyboard, not with pen) there is no possibility to underline or bold words or letters. This would be very useful. Is there a possibility to adjust this please? Thx
