  1. The full page typing version doesn’t have many fonts, just the headings. I would like it if you could make it possible to use system and imported fonts to be usable in iOS version. Not sure if android does this already. The in page typing version lets you use different ported fonts but not the basic full page typing. First photo is the normal in lined typing mode. And the second is the writing mode that supports other fonts.

  3. I use Windows at work and iOS at home. I would like Goodnotes to sync between both devices WITH the ability to PASSWORD protect personal files independently from work files. Similarly to how GOogle drive has My Drive and Shared Drive. that way I can keep work separate from Personal

  4. Can the edit feature for the elements have the same mechanics as when we move notepads/files?

    Currently we get a teeny-tiny screen, and have to drag stickers individually, and click "done". This makes it really frustrating and time consuming to organize stickers, which sometimes get all jumbled on download.

    It would be better to a) be able to select multiple elements and b) drag them to other collections if we want, c) on a larger or full-sized window, and d) to not have all the work undone when we click out of that window. Basically the same mechanics as the…

  5. Because I use an external SSD as the startup disk on my Mac mini, it seems that GoodNotes 6 is unable to enable iCloud sync in this situation.

  6. I’d love to be able to use the Red dot (fading ink) tool at the same time as the hidden tape feature (interacting with the tape while the Red dot is activated), this will help me with active recalling info from the hidden tape easier as I can type my answer anywhere and reveal the tape without having to switch my red dot setting. It is a mild inconvenience but I’ll love for it to be changed

  9. ■Strongly desire to support left-opening of PDFs.

    Japanese books open on the left.
    In order to open a PDF of that book, it needs to move horizontally and open left.
    Also, I would like to be able to choose between “one page appears independently” or “the previous and next pages appear continuously”.

  12. The system can already read your handwriting, so the ability to have the app code this writing to determine a Date and Time for a reminder would be amazing. Whether that be for an In-App reminders section which also pings on your phone and on top of the screen like "In your face"(APP) would be amazing.

    It would be brilliant if the app could automatically set a reminder in your default reminder software.

    As others have mentioned, this app is used for notes, diary and everything that people usually write down - so make it a super-app with the reminders…

  13. If you write with a pen or type text and choose an object with a classo tool and enlarge it, the letters will be enlarged completely, such as 100%, 150%, and 200%. For example, I wrote in the size of a 0.8mm thick and thick pen, but I zoomed in and reduced it to the classo tool because I think there was not enough space to write or the letters were too small. However, when I zoomed in/enlarged, the result displayed appears as if it were 0.2mm/2.00mm thick. I would like to add a function that can be modified to…

  14. If there is text in the photo or there is an equation, it would be nice to add a function to convert it into a text in the form of a good note or an equation function, as if adding text or entering an equation from a good note. (Transform text and equation in the photo directly into text and equation objects.)

  18. As a college student, I have access to the slides to my classes but there are no spaces on the side to write my own notes. It would be cool if there was a feature to add that on the side of my documents.

    It would be similar to the image but rather a whole added side to the document just like adding another page but on the right of the page/document.

  19. The experimental math conversion tool for Goodnotes6 is fairly good. It can convert most of 1-liner math handwriting satisfactory!
    However, it seems that the color of produced math formula is black only and can't be changed.
    Please make it possible to change color of the produced formulas, like other objects such as lines and typed texts. Assuming LaTeX as the conversion backend, it shouldn't be very difficult to make it by inserting a preamble \color{colorname} just before the math script.
