  3. When we create a new notebook we should be able to choose the number of pages we want added for the paper template we selected. For example, I want fifty pages of the blank paper template automatically added to my new notebook.
    That way we don’t have to manually add page after page or keep pulling on the current page and release to add another page.
    This feature would be the equivalent of buying a physical notebook from the store with a set number of pages.

  4. I believe work flow would be improved if select and copy is quicker.

    Lets say, leave one finger on the screen and select would copy, doing that with two fingers on the screen would past it.

    The time holding the finger down sometimes makes quicker write the sentence again instead of copying it.

  5. Your support tools for creating new templates is poor at best. The link to the YouTube video is deleted. The most recent info is 2 yers old!?
    I just want the simple answer to create my key tasks at the top of the page and daily notes below without buying templates on 3rd party sites. You seem to support the 3rd party eco system over providing SIMPLE instructions for users to for their own.

  6. I often trigger the undo gesture or the double tap to zoom unintentionally. I would love the ability to toggle off all input that ISN’T the pencil so that I can focus on quickly taking notes

  7. The idea is very simple:
    Being able to select different items in one page, having them in a clipboard, and pasting them in another order. said items could be text, sketches, marked up images, or even handwritten paragraphs, really could be anything. I feel like we are so used to having the one item copy paste clipboard, but this could be really a huge feature. Also making them stick to the clipboard even after the first paste, is a feature I see a lot of Chemistry/physics/engeneering notes being boosted with.
    I hope I delivered the concept.
    I am not a…

  8. Having the possibility of searching an index we have add directly in the index tab would be very comfortable, especially when you have lots of them

  9. The cutout tool should work over pages. If I'm cutting out a text or object on page one, then vertically scroll a bit down to page 2 I should be able to move the marked object over the pages to place it on the new one without copying it every time just for rearrange purposes.

  10. Would be great to have the option to open PDF files directly, e.g. from iCloud Drive. After some edits were applied, save the changes in the file directly.

    I‘ve organized all my files in iCloud. Using Good Notes I always have duplicates and there’s a noticeable amount of work to keep them synced, besides that the export flattens the PDF so no further edits are possible.

  12. Add a function, like in GoodReader, where there is a “back to reading” button - so you can toggle between a document and the file browser view.

  13. Create word hypolinks - To different page / book or internet

    On selection of text or image, be able to turn it into a hypolink, from here give us the options to select a page from either the same book or a different one, or either insert a url which would load up internet browser.

  14. Guys - the ability to snooze/set a reminder for a note would be amazing. When i'm using notes to generate ideas etc i often want to come back to them but you get busy and forget. A prompt would be invaluable (similar to 'nudges' in gmail) thanks

  16. The magnified writing window in GoodNotes 4 had a small menu bar, where one could change the pen colour, select the eraser and jump back and forth between the last changes. It greatly helped the writing flow, because one didn't need to go to the top of the screen.
    Please bring that back!

  18. Enable a way to create a shortcut on the homescreen on your device. So instead of having to open goodnotes and then your notebook, just be able to open your notebook directly from the homescreen of the device.
