  1. After the new tape inclusion, it would be nice to have a button to hide all tapes again or to show the content below the tapes at the same time.

  2. For requesting dictionary or translator, other apps such as Book in all iOS can do touch or tap in PDF file so I can read and take note in PDF file that is academic paper for taking some importance note like unknown word's for better understanding when I comeback to read.

    I feel a bit sad when my GoodNote cannot do like that. However, I don’t sure it’s hard or not if developer will add dictionary or translator into GoodNote by default.

  3. Hello... You can add the feature of sharing the audio recordings that are recorded in the program because it is very necessary for every user + and there is a small problem that when I change the location of the file, the audio recording stops working... Thank you.

  4. マスキング機能を追加頂きありがとうございます。
    もっとも、1冊の参考書だけでも数百にのぼるマスキングを付すことになるため、都度都度マスキングの表示/非表示を手作業で行うのは現実的ではありません。ぜひ、「マスキングの一括表示/非表示」機能をつけて下さい!
    (競合のノートアプリ、prodraftsのマスキング機能の仕様が優秀です。)

  7. I think it would be very helpful to be able to scan more than 24 documents in one sitting. Especially for those who are scanning textbook pages that are longer than 24 pages. It would make it much easier than having to scan 24 at a time.

  8. Add a way for a customer to contact you when they have an issue that is not addressed anywhere, not even using your Bot. I need to change the main email on my account & that does not seem to be addressed ANYWHERE! A way to ask questions would be nice.

  9. I would like to be able to duplicate my files. They have links within the document. The problem is that the copied file links keep opening in the old file and do not link within the new document. This makes no sense to me. How do I fix this?

  10. This would be a great thing for both, people who just use a trackpad/mouse bc they like it but also for people with disabilities.
    Currently, these people can’t use most of the great features GN6 offers, e.g. Lasso, Tape, Geometry, Pen, Eraser, … Or in other words: everything that requires drag&drop.
    This would be also very useful for IOS18 where Apple just drops an eye control feature.
    Please make this great app (more) accessible for everyone!

  11. I'm a big user of goodnotes, I've been taking notes with him since 4 years ago, it's a very good software to use, as you know, apple recently released ipad air 6 (13inch), I bought him and upgraded goodnotes 6 on this new ipad.
    I realized that from my previous device using goodnotes 5 there was no heating condition.
    But after about 20 minutes of writing on top of the new ipad, my ipad has been heating up really bad.
    I had to stop and let the ipad cool down a bit before I could continue writing. I hope the…

  12. Often, files in a folder are named after a similar pattern. It would be nice to have this as a optional feature for each folder. It should be rather easy to implement.

  13. Currently you are unable to use scribble to erase in the zoom window. I love the scribble feature and I’ve become very reliant on it that I can’t use the feature of the zoom window. I would love to use it and be able to see my full page but it is annoying having to undo or use the eraser

  15. 색깔 플레이트에 스포이드 기능이 있었으면 좋겠어요. 색깔을 똑같은 것으로 맞춰야 할때가 많은데 스포이드 기능이 없어서 인지 통일감없이 색을 맞추기가 너무 힘들어요.

  16. Please improve the text boxes. I would like to be able to do superscript and subscript numbers. Every user that works in science needs this sooner or later. It would be a simple but very necessary improvement.

    example: H2O (water)

    1. il righello dovrebbe essere uno scalimetro, mettere un pulsante di taratura in modo da adattarlo ad una misura nota del disegno, fissando lo "0". la scala impostata rimane impostata anche modificando lo zoom, così come la posizione dello "0"
    2. avere la possibilità di selezionare e specchiare
    3. migliorare la gestione del riempimento, poter cambiare colore
    4. gestione delle immagini, trasparenza, colori

  17. Dear GoodNotes Team, I am writing to express my appreciation for the exceptional work you’ve done with the GoodNotes app, which has significantly enhanced my note-taking experience.
    I would like to suggest an update that I believe many users, including myself, would find incredibly beneficial. It would be wonderful if the pen library could be expanded to include a wider variety of writing and drawing tools. This enhancement would not only improve the versatility of the app but also cater to the diverse preferences and styles of your user base.
    Thank you for considering this suggestion. I am looking forward…

  18. With the new squeeze function on Apple Pencil Pro, and how it brings up the new menu (Palette), it would be super cool to have this menu show up if you hold an older Apple Pencil down for a couple seconds. (Element note has this feature as well) but it would be super awesome to have for faster tool switching for people that aren’t on the newest iPads.

    TLDR bring the new squeeze menu to the rest of the pencils by holding down on the screen without moving your pen.

  19. When sharing notes, please add a function to disable writing except by the owner who created the note. I would like a function to allow only viewing by non-owners.
