  6. Goodnotes 6 should be able to add a feature wherein a request for authentication code is sent first before deletion of account. Sometimes people “misclick” the delete button account which made other devices log out of the account. It is a hassle for everyone 😫

  8. It would be great to add widgets to pages and choose to have these be per page or persistent (thus appearing on every new page in the location selected). Widgets I'd love to place on my pages would be:

    Date/Time - Box that shows the date/time (with option for format). When you add this it will place it with current date or time but user can tap to change. If you choose to make it persistent, when you create a new page it will use the current date/time unless user changes.

    Page # - Simple text to show current page…

  9. Typing right to left is one of the more important features that needs to be added, all of Hebrew and Arabic writers just can’t type in the app because of this issue.

  10. Hi I‘m missing bullet point for list in the built-in flash cards.
    It would be great, because by making answers for some Questions, sometimes the answer needs a list with bullet points (excuse my bad english)

  11. When typing a bulleted or numbered list, I want to use the tab / indent key to create multiple different levels.

    Needed for both the "Full-Page Typing Mode" and the "Text Styling / Textbox" features.

    For example...
    • Topic
    ______ • Item
    ____________ • Detail
    ____________ • Detail
    ______ • Item
    • Topic
    ______ • Item
    ______ • Item

    This is a popular request for document outlines, but it would also be great for text within notes & notebooks!

  12. indent feature
    - allow bulleted items to have multiple different horizontal start locations
    - "tab" key on keyboard asks like indent button
    - select / highlight bulleted items, click tab key or indent button --> goodnotes indents selected lines (instead of deleting them)
    - click tab key or indent button, type "- " to create a new bulleted item --> goodnotes begins a new list item indented one level inwards

    improved line spacing option
    - line spacing could automatically align with the lines on the default papers (like the graph paper)
    - input value instead of slider

    specific "list" feature…

  13. I've been using GoodNotes for 3.5 years now and some of my notebooks are quite long. Scrolling through looking for things is difficult in these because there are so many pages to navigate and the scrolling is fairly slow. The search function works well but not for looking through diagrams/drawings. The thumbnail view is good for getting to the start or end of a notebook, but the pages are far too small to see what's on them in that view.

    I would really welcome a nice way to scroll through pages faster in writing mode.

  15. Sometimes the sync is brilliant, but other times I have to close and reopen the app over and over again.

    I hate having to do workarounds when there should be an easy fix. Like, just add a refresh/force sync button !!!!!!!!

  16. Image Occlusion is a simple but very useful feature. With Image Occlusion, I can draw a box to cover up labels on a diagram. If I tap on the box, the box becomes invisible and the answer gets revealed. If I tap again, the box becomes opaque and the answer gets covered up again.

    There should also be a button to cover up all of the answers at once or reveal them all at once. When I’m done studying for the day, I want to cover up all of the answers, in order to pick up my studying next time.…

  17. I take my notes on my IPad, but study on my Windows PC. Everytime I‘m forced to convert my notes to PDF and upload them to a cloud to be able to download and view them on the Windows PC. It‘d be amazing to have an application for Windows to sync, view and maybe edit my notes there.
    If it‘s not possible to create an application for Windows, could you develop an online app where I can view my notes, that are taken with the IPad, on my Windows PC?
    Maybe based on the example of OneNote

  20. Sometimes, I forget what size and colour I wrote in. It’d be nice if I can use the eyedropper tool to see what size and colour it is.
