  1. After the dotted lines update the view of which 3 brushes you currently are using changed. Earlier the size of the brushes was shown more respectively to the size of the others. Now that the size is shown more accurately I can’t distinguish the sizes anymore, because it’s only 2mm. In writhing a big difference but in the tab not anymore.

  2. iOS apps normally update automatically as they become available. For some reason GoodNotes does not do this and the user either a) discovers that notes no longer sync across devices and/or b) discover app needs update by digging into the "About" panel. Normally iOS app updates are minimally impactful but I have now seen GoodNote cloud sync break twice and require manual intervention by user to discover the issue and manually update, I would like to suggest that Goodnotes adopts the process of most all other iOS apps and automatically update in background to minimize user impact.

  3. I've seen posts asking for a version history function, presumably something similar to what google docs has.

    However, I would like to suggest an edit history function, where I get to see how exactly my document was built/written from the first stroke/text/picture to the last, like that of a timelapse. This would help a variety of users, such as people trying to build a mind map, where they would be able to not just visualize their thoughts, but also visualize the flow of their thoughts. This would also help students in seeing where their last annotation was or when any…

  4. When reading a lot of texts, sometimes it is easier to switch to the option to let the text be read to be. The voice used by GoodNotes though is really really bad making it hard to focus on what is actually said.
    Instead it would be great if you could add the option to let Siri read the text since it sounds rather natural in contrast to the GoodNotes voice.

    Please!

  5. Die linealfunktion hat mich sehr gefreut, da man im matheunterricht immer wieder Winkel messen muss etc. Dennoch hab ich festgestellt, dass das Maßstab des Lineals mit keinem papierformat übereinstimmt, weder mit goodnotes Standard, noch mit dinA4. Mein Wunsch wäre es, das Lineal so anzupassen, dass 2 Kästchen auf dem a4 Blatt auch einem cm auf dem Lineal entsprechen

  6. Use GoodNotes as a Tool to directly make notes on pdfs.
    Safe them to the Apple Folders without opening them in Goodnotes itself.

  7. Ability to read/speak pdfs, notes, etc. similar to other text-to-speech apps (with non-robotic voices). As a college student that takes in auditory information better than reading myself it would be very handy to be able to have papers i upload into goodnotes be read.

  8. On travaille beaucoup avec des formes géométriques, et avoir par exemple le centre du cercle, carrée, etc.., des flèches ou angles, serait bien.

    Les dossiers ne peuvent pas être ranger comme on le souhaite, c’est dommage.

  9. I use Goodnotes 6 for medical school as my only notes taking application. often I will write up notes which I come back to add to it but don't have space. It would be nice if I could add handwritten links to other places within the document or "sticky notes" that I could stick on the sides of the documents (Black/blank space of the page). Save me spending ages having to rearrange everything. Thank you

  11. Could Goodnotes possibly incorporate the ability to add chart interactions? For example, for individuals who keep extensive logs or check lists, having the ability to select a check mark or fill in an incremental bar that could impact a graph, table, or value would allow for more seamless tracking abilities.

  12. It should be possible with one click from anywhere in the document view to get back to currently open tabs. Currently the only way to do this is to open another notebook via one direction or another. Why not have an option to “close” the document view and bring up the open notebooks?

  13. I believe implementing a feature where the zoom window can be pinned to a specific position would be a significant enhancement. This would serve as a game-changer, allowing users to lock the zoom window to specific questions or images they wish to work on. This feature could greatly enhance user experience, especially in scenarios where space is limited, enabling more flexibility in annotating and addressing specific elements within the document. I hope you consider this valuable suggestion for future updates.

  16. I have been a Goodnotes user for over 5 years, and it is currently my primary note-taking app for my studies in medical school. I have recently noticed a small redundancy that I believe can make the user experience a lot smoother if a slight improvement is made. When accessing the outlines within a notebook composed of imported PDFs, there are both custom outlines and auto-imported PDF outlines. As is the case with many students, the PDF outlines are often cluttered and sometimes irrelevant, so custom outlines are instead used to divide the various subsections (eg. lectures) within a notebook.…

  17. I like the dot grid because it’s more subtle than the squared grid, but unfortunately the dot grid is huge now and it sucks! I’d like to submit an idea to have the dot spacings be adjustable. This would be nice to have for the graphed and lined paper as well!

  18. Hello, good note developers.
    I'm a good note user of Windows.
    I'm currently using Surface Pro, and I'm using the third generation of Surface Pen. Currently, the Good Note for Windows supports the noose function with a side button. Please make it possible to customize the function of the side button. Side buttons can be customized with various functions such as changing an eraser, changing a pen type, and changing color, not a snare. I really like the ability to use the eraser on the back. If I can customize the side buttons I want, it will be a more…
