  2. Be able to write and view a note in dark mode however automatically invert to white paper and black/ darker coloured text when exporting to a pdf, sharing the document or printing. Onenote already does this and it is very useful.

  4. Many people use good notes for planner or as a diary. It would be very helpful one could add a reminder entry or calendar entry during taking notes . For example just button that shows entry of reminder at that place. Also reminder app will have an entry so that it will notify you when needed. Perhaps as a separate purchase. Like pencil planner app in app store.

  6. Being able to share and download actual sticker packs or “elements” on the community section. Right now all the stickers are just a note with the stickers on it and you have to screenshot and crop all the “freebie” stickers.

  7. Hi! I would love to have the possibility to use 2 accounts on one device.
    For example business and private.

    Are there any plans on that?

  8. I use GoodNotes for teaching (and it‘s great for that). However I‘d love widgets like timers for students. I use classroomscreen.com for timers and soundlevel sensors, which are oddly specific requirements for teachers. So I don‘t think features like these will be implemented.
    If I could use the presentation mode while in splitscreen, I could show timers/other widgets on one side, while not losing space in my GoodNotes document. Also I don‘t want students to see messages popping up on my screen.

  9. I am using a black page on the black background.
    For a longer battery time, I usually set my screen less brightly, but it is difficult to distinguish the border of each page.
    So, my suggestion is to provide white edges as a border of every black page so that users can easily perceive when a page starts or ends.

  10. When using a digital planner one is often switching between writing and navigating. Each switch requires one tap the button in the upper left.
    I am right handed, it would be nice if there was an area on the screen that I could hold with my left hand that would activate the link following options so I could navigate the planner and then when I lift my finger I can write again. For a lefty this would/could be on the right side of the screen.

    For example, it is the weekend, I am reviewing previous week(s) and planning the upcoming…

  12. I am using a planner that has the entire square of a day in a calendar hyperlinked… so if I’m trying to tap and hold to edit a sticker, etc. it only lets me open the link. I’d like the option to disable that feature…or at least append the image edit, crop, etc menu to the “open link” menu that is displayed….
    This is also an issue for tapping and holding to paste… Thank you!

  13. There are many requests posted for this feature but listed under different threads.
    For students and professionals researching and taking notes this is very helpful when compiling or reviewing notes afterwards. Not having this feature defeats the purpose of highlighting and taking notes. Unless GoodNotes wants to just target small documents and sticky notes.

  14. "A selection tool that makes everything inside the selected section permanent, which cannot be erased by an eraser or moved by an lasso pen".

    Add a warning as well to notify the user once made permanent cannot be reverted back. Let it be redone by undo incase of any mistake or whatever suits your logic.

    So the notes we take can be set permanent and if we want to scribble on top of it we can do so!!!

  15. an option to make a summery out of all highlighted text in the same color.
    so if I'm studying a topic with a lot of terms i would like to highlight the term itself during the classes and notes and after that have the ability to extract all the lets say yellow highlights as flash cards while one side has the term and on the other side have the sentence that followed it...
    that way you could have instant flash card built with your own summery and no need to make a new summery or read everything to study...
    also…

  16. When you draw some shapes on top of each other and you would like to align the shapes perfectly, you can't select the shape you draw afterwards. May you can do it better. E.g. you can select all shapes near the area you have tapped with your finger.

  18. As a Student, I use GoodNotes every day. So it‘s normal for me, that I have to use the double window mode. But this is a little bit problematic, if the two windows are the same document. It happens very often, that I have to copy some things from one to the other window, and like this that makes things complicated. You have to do so many things, just to copy something.
    If there would be the opportunity to have two sides, next to next, in one window (provided that it’s the same document), i would be way easier to…

  19. Sometimes reviewing physics equations and organic chemistry mechanisms can be tiresome.

    I have a suggestion, if possible, design a way for the laser to record your writing. Allow the laser pointer to record how you write your notes so when you replay it and you can watch exactly how you drew your mechanism or how you did your physics problem.
