  1. I would like to be able to talk and my voice to be converted to my handwriting in PDF annotated pages in GoodNotes. This feature would be something that none of the similar applications support and would really streamline putting our thoughts onto the digital paper with our own handwriting.
    Regards,
    Ali

  2. When you are writing to convert to text it will not match what I capitalize. Only the leading letter of the sentence or phrase.

  3. Custom folder colors! I’m happy to have different colors to pick from, but I would love to use a color wheel for more colors like orange or different shades!

  4. I use goodnotes in uni and have audio recording turned on during notes in my lectures. The thing I have noticed is that while helpful, for many of my classes, when I go to make refined notes it means i have to go back and listen to the whole lecture again (often pausing alot write down and catchup with things the prof said). This means that I often have to spend 2-3 hours on a one hour lecture just to get everything the prof said written down so I don’t miss anything. Thats alot of time dedicated to a class…

  7. Currently, Goodnotes only offers automatic backup of files and folders to the selected cloud storage provider. This is useful, but it does not allow for full synchronization of files that are directly added to the cloud. This can lead to inconsistencies between the files stored in Goodnotes and the files stored in the cloud.

    Solution:

    I propose a new feature that would allow users to fully synchronize their Goodnotes files and folders with the cloud. This would ensure that any changes made to files in Goodnotes are also reflected in the cloud, and vice versa.

  9. Add the ability to program a gesture to rotate pen colors. I use multiple colors for my notes and this feature would save me SO MUCH time.

  11. I hate the thing that if you are searching for a note on a folder o if you exit by mistake while taking notes you must open a new file to return back in “notes mode”. Just add a “back to notes” button or make tabs view also available in search, documents, ecc pages!!

  13. Improve the overflow feature of typed notes so that if I go back and add more to an earlier page, it automatically flows down. Also allow for a header that repeats across multiple pages of typed notes (like in a notebook filled with notes for a semester worth of classes).

  14. As a student, I am often completing exam papers and download them onto my goodnotes to then complete. I often find that there isn't enough space to write on the sheet so I create a new blank page to write my answers. However it is very inconvenient to have to scroll up and down to read the question then scroll down to write my working then scrolling back up again for the the questions and so on. Other apps like liquid text already have this feature that I wholeheartedly believe would make this app significantly better. Not only this, even…

  15. My organization blocks access to OneDrive because, due to the way it is set up, it requires to "give GoodNotes access to the organization". This is the reason why Goodnotes is not used more by the company despite the fact that it is probably the best tool. Would be great if you could revise that or at least provide optionality for the way a connection is made with OneDrive. Thanks

  16. I would like to be able to move the divider between the colors and tools to the left to allow a greater selection of colors to be available. I remember this was a thing before in Goodnotes, where the ruler and laser pointer were behind the divider and I could access a greater number of colors and/or line thickness.

    As a user who rarely uses anything past the lasso tool and sometimes the image insert but uses several colors in my notes it would very useful!
