  1. Now I have to click then select stroke size, which is make me get slower. Before It appeared in the toolbar and I only do one click, but for now two click is required. For me adding more colors doesn’t necessary (at all), I don’t always change the colors, but I always change the stroke size, so bring it back please 🙏🏼, I’m so upset to click for change stroke size, can you make me change immediately whenever I want to.

  2. I think adding a tool for drawing curves for diagrams that for example engineering students must draw for their notes will be very helpful like the one exists in CollaNote.

  4. After the latest update which is the addition of voice recording into the toolbar, the brace cursor disappeared. I think the toolbar customization feature should be offered because the sidebar for the pages does not work effectively, especially for large pdf(s) (for ex. while I am looking at page 123 the sidebar stays at page 4). Thus, adding a brace for any page becomes frustrating.

  5. While writing, my palm touches the screen and most often the "Zoom | Add comment" option pops up. It would be great if this menu can be made optional.

  6. It should be possible to set what you want your default text font to be; for example, right now the default text font is”Helvetica Neue”, but I always use the font “Chalkboard SE, so instead of changing it everytime i make a new text box, I can have it as an automatic default so that im not going in to change it each time! This would save me SO much time, and I feel as though this could be a beneficial feature for the app!

  8. Flashcard Update! Please make this a permanent feature. There should be an outline so you can quickly find a card without flipping through the full size ones. Also have a way for you to save your progress. If i make a deck of 120 cards I may not have time to make it all the way through and want to come back where I left off. Also a feature to let you study only the ones you missed. And a feature to let you view them in order or randomly.

  11. Allow for hashtagging (much like Apple Notes). This allows for easy searches, etc. GoodNotes is great, but hashtags will make it better!

  15. In the option box generated by long-pressing the word, there is currently only 'definition'. It would be more applicable if 'translation' was added.
    长按单词产生的选项框中,目前只有‘定义’。如果增加‘翻译’会更适用。

  16. *no send to back/bring to front options
    *no table creation options
    *no way of editing hyperlinks within goodnotes, you have to do it externally
    *no layer tool (adding this would solve the send to back issue)
    *no opacity settings for pens
    *no bullet point options for typing

    These are such basic tools in other apps and I’m actually astounded GoodNotes does not have them. Even word 2007 had some of these options, let’s not pretend they’re innovative tools. Without them GoodNotes is frustrating to use and frankly just a poor way of organising information, I really expect better, come on…

  17. 1 - There should be at least different types of tables available.
    2- mind mapping should a must have thing for students for making and remembering notes very easily.
    3 - shifting of documents ,notes , and pictures automatic to next page if added in between will be very helpful for us.

  19. When you use the lasso tool to take a screenshot, it would be nice if it copied it directly to your clipboard so you didn’t have to do ~~> share ~~> copy ~~> exit. I often need to screenshot lecture slides, and doing this series of motions repeatedly takes up a lot of time in real time as the professor is speaking. Having s feature where it a lasso screenshot is be automatically copied would be great
