  1. I want the paper colour to be automatically changed when activating Dark Mode just like Notability. That is the only reason I am forced to use Notability else I immediately shift to goodnotes.

  4. please make a function to link another document within a document!!

    I am making a short summary to study for my class final, I would love to be able to link a different document within my goodnotes folders to a specific word to have more detailed information

    for example: my note says " - the sea is full of organisms", I then tap on the word "organism" and my notes on organisms I took during class pop up, because I was able to link them to my short summary

  5. For example, I would like to have a toggle for the zoom button so that when I press disable, it doesn't zoom in when I try to zoom in, and when I want to zoom in, it only zooms in when the zoom button is enabled.

    When I try to writing things, it keeps zooming in when I don't want it to, which is inconvenient.

  6. Currently, when you write a comment of a doc it blocks the whole screen when you open it. When I add a comment to a doc it would be helpful to have it to the side where it doesn’t obstruct the whole page and I can read the comment while also looking at my document. I think utilizing the gray area around a doc would be a great place for this.

  7. Interactive buttons would be wonderful that delete when touched to reveal answers underneath. it would be awesome if some could make noise such as clapping or buzzer sounds to help make lessons more interactive. The sticky notes can be used to reveal but you have to move them and then they do that crazy copy feature and get smaller. it is very annoying and would greatly improve if a double tap or two finger touch could disappear them. Thank you

  9. It is INCREDIBLY frustrating to REPEATEDLY go through the processes of (1) complete the "Contributing Handwriting" feature multiple times, (2) add Custom Words to the Personal Dictionary, and (3) when a red line appears tapping on the redline then "More" --> "Add to Dictionary" --> then complete the "Add Custom Word" field AND THE RED LINE REMAINS after tapping Save. Please know this REPEATED experience has frustrated me to the point of looking at alternative handwriting recognition apps or go back to keeping a paper journal.
    I'm in a professional occupation where keeping a journal is essential, and repeatedly going…

  12. Hi there,

    Being able to collaborate on a documents is excellent.

    I would love the ability to be able to callaborate over bluetooth though. Unfortunately we do not always have the internet available when we are collaborating, and even when we do, we would rather not use the data.
    I imagine this would also result in faster updates when editing a document.

    Thanks

  13. I REALLY REALLY need this feature because I used text boxes as headings in my notes and it wastes wayyyy too much time going in to change the colour each time

    It's such a simple feature I can't believe it hasn't been implemented yet T^T. I would pay ungodly amounts of money for this because it would seriously save me SO MUCH time for note taking

  14. When I create a sharing link for a notebook and share it with other users, other users cannot move the notebook to documents folder or another folder. Whenever they want to move it, show a note on the screen ''notebook is moved'', but this is not done. I request your urgent help on this issue. Or you should enable folder sharing as soon as possible.

  15. I would love to have the ability to change the spacing of the grids for the 'Square Paper' template and also set a default grid spacing size for all the different paper options for both portrait and landscape just like Notability does. So it doesn't matter which paper size you choose to have if it is either A3, A4 or A5 etc, the gird spacing size will stay the same.

  19. When text reaches the bottom of the page, it should automatically go on the next page. Also, when adding text to the previous page, text should automatically readjust on the following pages (just like it does on Word).
