  5. I like using the flash card feature of GoodNotes and it works just fine on my iPad. However, on Mac, the window is so small, I cannot properly read my answers.

    I'd like the window size to be adjusted so one can comfortably read the entire flash card on a large display. There's enough room for it.

  6. I would like to request a feature that converts handwriting into text. I know that the current lasso tool can do it, but what I asked for is a tool similar to lasso. Circle the text and it converts to text and replaces the original handwriting. This will be easier to convert current handwriting into text, also easier than the text tool.

    • audio recordings that sync to the handwriting (fundamental)
    • the possibility to use light or dark mode independently from the system
    • have only one color palette for both pens and highlighters
    • the dropper tool to add colors to the palette
    • edit / personalise toolbar with the possibility to hide features that we don’t use often in a little “+” sign where we can find all of them that one time we need to (this would be AWESOME)
    • improvements on the text tool (add the option to write all over the page like in word and not only within text boxes
    • infinite…

  7. It would be cool if I could search for a drawing in GoodNotes (example shown in the attached image). Currently, GoodNotes' search bar only accepts a text input, since GoodNotes uses Optical Content Recognition (OCR). The search feature would be even more powerful if I could also draw something in the search field, and find matching/similar occurrences of that drawing.

    In addition to helping me search for diagrams, this would also help with searching for handwritten text that wasn't accurately converted using OCR.

    Thank you for taking the time to review this! :)

  8. I think it would be great if we were able to have movable sticky notes that would also move the text inside of it without affect any highlighting already resent on the page. Or being able to deselect highlighting when using the lasso tool so that I could move just my makeshift sticky notes.

  10. 笔记定义的时候只能够基于单种语言进行OCR,在iOS 15发布后留意到Live Text可以实现多语种同时OCR识别,是否有可能调用API实现多语种同时OCR,尤其是对于学科笔记而言,以中文为主体记录,但很难避免会部分出现数字或英文单词,这个时候会识别不到。

  13. Right now text is entered through boxes. This makes sense for regular note taking, but I think programmers would benefit from having a page type that aligns all the text to the page as plain text files do, and have this page extend vertically for at least a hundred lines.

    Allow for drawings and normal text editing, just have this page be friendlier to coding students and programming notes (also have a monospaced font as default for these).

    A huge bonus would be numbered lines and/or switching to a comment text color through a shortcut (e.g. pressing "/" twice if…

  14. Serious flaws

    The text box never aligns with the horizontal line provided by the "single column" template

    This will seriously affect the neatness and aesthetics of keyboard input

    I hope developers can improve this as soon as possible

    This is really important!

  15. If I'm using Zoom on my iPad, I can't use presentation mode. I have to do Zoom on a computer and share the iPad to the computer via AirPlay or Reflector to get the presentation mode. It would be nice if I could get the presentation mode when doing Zoom through the Zoom app on the iPad.

  16. The idea is to update the file manager in order to make it’s style more uniform within iPadOS and it would be beautiful if we can save directly files in a file-folder that che be found in File app

  18. I would like to write till the end of the last line on a page but auto-advance doesn't suggest that so I'll have to manually keep dragging the window or move it. It would be better if it suggests a new page when the last line is also complete.

  19. The writing experience needs a for-real chisel point, fountain pen look. The app Notesplus has a gorgeous one, but I had to give it up because GoodNotes is better in every other way. But man, I miss it. See examples uploaded...
