  1. Make the setting global for (1) questions and (2) answers. Allow customization on each card. The global settings are more important than customization.

    • It should be possible to fetch the desired color from the page, for example from an image.
    • Change the name of the audios, and have something that would appear if that specific page had an audio. | It was good to have an option where what we wrote during the audio didn't stay on the page, or that for example we could record the red pointer together with the audio.
    • The option to adjust the position of an object and "send to the back" or "bring to the front", also divert is possible.

  2. I am in management and use GoodNotes for many things including staffing. It would be great to be able to share documents that are ‘live’ with any updates that I make, without having to ‘reshare’ a link, BUT with a option to share in a VIEW ONLY MODE (so I can make changes that my staff can see in real time, but my staff not be able to make changes)

  3. The current zoom-in zoom-out is frustrating in that it does not allow the user to move the page, we instead move around a fixed point. In procreate were able to move the page any which way we want and I believe this would allow for greater flexibility on how a user can write their notes.

  4. It would be amazing if you could select what note cards you want to study at one time. Some material is harder than others, thus you only need to see certain material once or twice, while other materials need to be seen multiple times.

    I can make 200+ index cards and I need to be able to learn them efficiently.

  5. It would be awesome to have the ability to group pages by number sets (or customizable keywords) and paste to multiple pages at once. I use goodnotes as my digital planner. It would be great if I could paste my recurring daily tasks or appointments to all of my days or specific days of the week that they occur, i.e 3:30 monday swim class to all of my mondays.

  7. I often switch pencils colors and strokes width, also between pencils and highlights.
    If we can use stock buttons which enable us to stock pencils or highlights preferences including color, width, this function makes GoodNotes easier to use!!

  8. The upper toolbar, where we the share-button or the undo-button are sadly is in a dark grey colour. I would wish that the customer can choose an arbitrary colour or even theme for this upper toolbar. For example OneNote is purple and in Notability the theme of the background and the toolbar can be changed.
    Thanks in advance.

  9. Hello, I use the study kit option a lot and there are some features that I would like you to include.

    1° I would like to have the option of being able to change the order of the cards, when I am in thumbnail mode, in the same way, that I can modify the order of the pages in a notebook.

    2nd I would like to be able to move cards individually or by selecting several from one set to another.

    3rd In thumbnail mode I would like to see the names of the cards much larger, on the iPhone…

  10. post it on the app should be easier to use. when you use them they should appear so you can write on them but when you top using them they should disappear/minimize (only appear as a little icon) so they don't use real estate on the screen or block part of it . when you want to read the theme you could press on the icon and the post should re-emerge.

  11. First thank you for your priceless. application. It’s really enjoyable to take notes.
    As a researcher, I need to read and annotate lots of papers. I would appreciate it if you could add a feature that allows me to write out the outline. I show it in the attachment. It will help organize and make annotation more enjoyable. Also, it gives us more space to make a connection between different articles.

  13. Both the BMW X3 and X5 are luxury SUVs from the reputable BMW brand, known for their performance, comfort, and advanced features. However, the "better" choice between the two depends on several factors, including your specific needs, preferences, and budget.

  14. Clicking on Documents or Favorites in the MacOS-App while being deeper in their folder structures doesn't return you to their respective root folder.

    I'd like to see the same behavior implemented as in the iPadOS-App where you do return to the root folder.

    Thank you for your work!

  15. I previously submitted feedback that it would be nice for goodnotes beta to be able to import pdf files. I got the response that this is already possible but after multiple tries and lots of googling I found out that this still isn't the case. So hereby I try again.

  19. I noticed how smooth the laser pointer writes so a suggestion is make another pen style that writes the same way as the laser pointer writes, while keeping the pressure sensitive too.
