  4. The app lacks the ability to bring (import) sound files. Have you thought about this possibility?

    1. It’s hard to scroll though 200 pages of written notes, just to find where the audio was recorded. It would be amazing for us students, if there was an option to see what page/where the audio was recorded.

    2. Please add an update to let us rename recorded audio files.

    3. Change playback speed of the audio.

    4. Add an option that automatically adds the date and time when a new page is created. (This could also help find audio recordings based on date and time of the recording, and the page)

    5. When you draw and hold, it presets into a shape, please…

  6. When using Presentation Mode with AirPlay set as "Mirror Presenter Page," GoodNotes used to hold the displayed tab when going back into the file interface. This was very effective for avoiding distraction for students when looking for a new file to display. It appears that in mid May with no explanation this feature was removed.

    Now, when pressing the "back" button to browse files, the AirPlay display now shows the file interface, rather than holding the displayed page frozen.

    This feature was critical to how I used GoodNotes in my classroom, and I hope it could be reverted, even is…

  7. Your automatic backup is a great feature My request: Please include https://www.pcloud.com/ in your list of backup locations.

    The backup folder should be user defined.

    The ability to restore GoodNotes notebooks from backup should also be implemented.

    pCloud has a full API: https://docs.pcloud.com/. Maybe https://pipedream.com/apps/pcloud can help you or give you some ideas.

  9. PLEASE create the control f function for flashcards. Would literally save my life. Cause I have a bunch of flashcard for my anatomy lectures and it's hard to have to go through them one at a time.
    thank you

  10. It would be great to have a little image of the current canvas on the side of the page, indicating which part of the canvas is currently shown.

    This would greatly improve overview and usability.

  11. It would be interesting to categorize color by category that we can edit, named and change. Goodnotes could also share palettes.

  12. Preset colors can be specified for both handwriting and highlights.

    However, the preset of the text box is not changed.

    The problems that arise here are:

    It is difficult to change the color of only part of the text box
    -> It is possible to change some colors through customization, but if you try to change it using a color code, the entire text box is selected and some changes are not made.

    If you want to change the color of only some of them, you need to add text boxes, create spaces between sentences, and align the text boxes…

  13. It would be nice to have a function where the notes can be read out to the user as some people are better audio learners. It would also help with reviewing materials while on the go or for multi-tasking.

  14. I noticed that I can create a notebook on Android from a picture file. On my iPad I regularly do that and then add more picture files to the notebook. But when I share the notebook and try to open on Android or Windows that does not work. When creating a notebook from a PDF file it works a charm.

    I use Goodnotes as a digital puzzle magazine and copy/past puzzles from a newspaper.

    Maybe I missed something but can't seem to get sharing a notebook made up from picture files working

  15. Similar to the old school paper notebooks, I am having difficulty writing at the bottom of any page, as my hand is out of level from the notebook (iPad goodnotes) and I do not like leaving my pages half blank just because its a digital notebook.

    It will be very helpful to write with the same comfort level on the whole page if the bottom of the page can be pulled to the middle (at least while in Zoom) with non-writable blank space to put my palm on.

  16. Chciałabym aby w opcji przekształcania tekstu pisanego na tekst komputerowy było dostępne więcej języków. Uważam ze dzięki temu więcej ludzi mogłoby korzystać z tej świetnej opcji. Przykładowo ja nie jestem wstanie jej używać ponieważ nie ma tam języka polskiego. Byłabym wdzięczna za dodanie polskiego (i innych) języków do aplikacji. Ta zmiana umożliwiłaby mi znacznie szybsze robienie ładnych i czytelnych notatek w szkole.

  17. Hi GoodNotes team,
    Thanks for developing an amazing notetaking app for iPad. I just have some suggestions for the mac version to improve workflow and efficiency.
    I like your app, but I want to love it.

    HIGH PRIORITY - makes the app annoying to use:
    - clicking on a page thumbnail in the side bar NEEDS to bring me to that page
    - change template (especially page size) for entire notebook/multiple pages
    - multi-page selection is broken. it should also be optimised with [cmd + click] and [shift + click]
    - DELETING A PAGE TAKES THREE CLICKS. AND SINCE MULTI-PAGE…

  19. Es wäre gut wenn man beim lernen mit den Lernkarten auch in die Karten reinzoomen könnte und so die Karten vergrößern könnte. Vor allem wenn man mal am iPhone lernen möchte oder einfach an einem kleineren Geräten.
