  1. I love this new feature added to GoodNotes 5. It can become better by:
    1. Syncing the page with the audio, which is by showing the number of the current page in which the recording is being played.
    2. Adding the ability to Rename the Audio Files.
    3. Adding the ability to export the Audio Files.
    4. Recording pixel by pixel which results in smoother writing when recording is replayed.

  2. It would be very helpful if we are given the ability to select several images and import them all at once. This will save time and it will make it easier to work with projects that require a collection of photos. One way I would use this is to upload multiple pictures into flashcards. I think it would also be great for journaling. A feature like this will help speed up my workflow. It is a nice productivity feature.

    My workflow would be much more efficient if I could multiple images simultaneously instead of individually, since I work with images…

  3. I'd like to be able to design elements in a vector based app like Graphics and then use them in GoodNotes without having to convert them to pixel-images first.

  5. It would be great to be able to use predefined and custom graphic stamps to annotate a document. I'm thinking 'Rejected!' or "Approved'

  7. A pencil tool would be great for sketching and markups… many of us love that traditional look and it’d compliment the look of our notes, especially for scientific or mathematical diagrams.

  10. Lasso tool automatic disable after using.

    Please make an option to automatic change from lasso tool to pen after using lasso. As for now it’s too much hassle to manually go from lasso to pen every time. Usually I use lasso to move an object only once, and when I’m done moving, I immediately want to continue writing.

    As for now, every time after using the lasso tool, I need to manually change from lasso to pen tool.... every time! This is quite tiresome during a long writing session.

    Or at least make an option to be able to turn…

  12. More writing tools like a crayon, brush pen, watercolor brush, and pencil. Bamboo Paper offers these tools, and it would be nice to see them in GoodNotes because GoodNotes offers superior performance to BP. Adding a greater tool selection would make this app even better.

  13. It would be super nice if you could lock things into place, such as pictures or stickers, so they wouldnˋt move around when trying to move other things on theoage with the select tool! Would make digital planning even more fun and exciting!

  14. Please enable search for exact phrase within quotation marks. Right now the engine searches for words separately. When the search phrase contains some common words like “the”, “of”, “a” etc. a pile of irrelevant search results would come out.

  15. Can you create an app also for Windows? It would so much easier if I could not only see but also edit my notes on my laptop. Really hope you will create an app in the near future.

  16. I love the new audio recording feature but find a few issues with it and potential improvements.
    1. Once you’ve recorded, to play a recording it plays the first ever recording and you need to find the spot for your latest one. I think it would be more logical to automatically play the latest recording, especially for people with large notebooks who don’t want to skip through hundreds of previous audio recordings.
    2. Be able to rename audio recordings or have GoodNotes use AI to rename the audio recordings (name it the title of the page, or do like voice…
