  1. I kept being annoyed at auto advance everytime I use it… It sorts of breaks my concentration as I write small words into the page. Right now, I have it disabled. It would be nice if we can have the option available as an icon since most people likes to use it.

    The blue frame for auto advance should be bigger as it is easier to see the flow of words towards the edge of the page, rather than it being way in edge of left side. Even left-handed people will benefit it too.

  2. Among the basic apps, if you look at Books, there is a scroll that allows you to move quickly along with a horizontal preview.

    However, in good notes5, vertical scrolling is required, but you can move by pressing the scroll button.

    In horizontal scrolling mode, you can only move one page at a time.

    If this is improved when writing in landscape mode, not only vertical scroll users but also horizontal scroll users will be very satisfied.

    Thank you.

  3. Do you pick out the clothes you wear to school each day? When you’re deciding what to wear, what do you think about? What things are important to you?

    If you look in your closet, you realize that you have a certain number of clothes to choose from. But how did those clothes get there? Did you help pick them out? Why did you or your family members choose the clothes you have?

    Who decided that blue jeans and T-shirts are “cool” for kids to wear today? Who designs the clothes you see for sale in stores? All of these…

  7. When inserting a picture taken by camera at real time, I need the scanned version, rather than the original picture. This function is supported by OneNote a long time ago, and they call it "Blackboard" mode in the camera. I hope this can be added to GoodNotes as well. Thank you~

  8. Cupcake 2048 is a modified version of the famous 2048 game that has gone viral. While 2048 employs numbers as the grid value, Cupcakes 2048 uses beautiful cupcake images. This game is for you if you like puzzle games that enable you to test/improve your intellect and creative abilities.

    The goal of the game is to assemble numbered cupcakes on a grid to build a new cupcake capable of achieving 2048 or the Rainbow Cupcake. It may seem straightforward at first, but the more cupcakes you mix, the less space for maneuvering you have. As a result, if your board…

  10. I initially had a custom pen color palette with no problems. However, after I decided to delete my colors and replace them with newever colors, my palette always resets to the old custom palette I had. I constantly lose the new colors I create and this occurs for my highlighter colors too.

  12. When taking notes, it would be helpful if there was a way to create flashcard desks automatically from a document. I envision is being something where we could select the text that we want, and then there would be an option within the menu to automatically turn that text into a flash card. It could also be something where we could take a screenshot like we normally can with the lasso tool and then have an option there to turn it into a flashcard and then have the ability to select what we want blocked out on the front of…

  13. Every time a new version of the same script (film/tv) comes out, I would love to be able to transfer my notes and additional pages to the new script.

  14. Under the continuous page scrolling with the pdf slides under 16:9 ratio, pages are auto enlarge out of the screen edges, causing me to have to keep scrolling also left to right to view the whole content on a page. Please fix this.

  16. It is very annoying to have an original pdf where original dimensions are larger than the default A4 pages of goodnotes.

    If I want to add a blank page to take supplementary notes, I have to struggle with that.

  17. I'm not sure where does Goodnotes automatically save when I turn off auto back up to cloud storage. Goodnotes doesn't have status to show is it now saving to the device. i.e. loading or syncing symbols that have rotating arrow and say file saved when finish saving.

    More over, Goodnotes usually hangs (or crashes?). It hangs and auto show my iPad's home screen.

    I suggest 2 ideas to improve how to save.
    1) Add saving staus bar and symbol to show is the file saving to somewhere like MS office. For example "Saving to your local storage." or "Saving to…

  18. I do a lot of math and when creating equations I like to make exponents, subs or even small corrections a different line width for them to stand out. It would be very helpful to be able to to use the pencil tap shortcut on Apple Pencil to change the line width and even the color instead of having to constantly reach up to the selection menu to switch back and forth. I have attached a screenshot of a very long problem that I have solved using method as an example of what I’m referring to and how useful it…

  20. I'm using GN intensiv and missing one important feature: Virtual Notebook(s) based on a search. This feature should be similar to the intelligent folder in apple mail. I'd like to define a search by keyword as a Virtual notebook. This will help me to quickly get an overview on all pages wich belongs to my key word(s). Having multiple virtual notebooks will help me organizing my self even better.
    It should be possible to read and write in the virtual notebook. Adding a new page should optional add a text box with the key words.

    Use Case: I'm using GN…
