Goodnotes is a huge battery drainer, so I hope the next up date will optimize the app resources so it uses less power

Since iOS 13 there is the possibility to hold and drag the scroll bar on the right to scroll. This does not seem to be the case in GoodNotes 5. It‘s a very small but useful feature to get a quick glance at the document or finding a page in a big document. Once you get used to it in other apps like OneNote, you start to miss it in GoodNotes 5.

You have given us access to 3 additional colors, I would like to have a minimal of 8-10 accessible colors on the zoom in bar when writing. I color code while taking notes and although 3 is a great start we should be able to add as many colors allowed on this tool bar area. Please see attach file below

When I import some PDFs their outlines are imported too. I love this feature. I have noticed that when this happens, the outlines have sub-outlines to make navigating the outlines easier.

However, I can not create this in my own GoodNotes outlines. It only works when I import a PDF that already has this structure built into it.

I would like to have a feature in GoodNotes where I can create sub-outlines in my notebooks.

I would like to see a menu icon that would allow you to change the color of your ink or highlighter based on the next clicked on color. This would make switching colors to a previously used “standard” color much faster and would ensure that you had the exact same color used throughout the document for a type of note or section...

Like in any application you can send images or objects backward, forward, etc. Would be great to have this especially when you want the handwritings to overlap with images or vice versa, or when you need to edit it.
When I was still using a Samsung Note 8, I was able to do this so, im pretty sure the mighty iPad Pro can do it as well :)
its pretty basic since many of the applications already in iOS do this. Would love for this basic feature to be available. if it already is, please... someone help me!

It would be really helpful for engineers and engineers to be if the ends of the lines would "lock" onto the corners of each square on squared paper.

That would make it a lot easier and faster to draw vectors, circuits, functions...

But only as an option that can be turned on or off easily like the lasso tool for selecting images or handwriting..., otherwise it would get very annoying.

Add a paper page as new paper type with the date of today into the default paper type. So you are able to create a new note book with empty pages withe the date of today like a dairy book.

sometiomes I use the ruled paper and wanna type on it,but the textbox seems not precisely fits the line spacing of the paper , i hope I can directly type on the paper lines ,not type in a textbox. Thanks!

It would be grate to have goodnotes on windows and Android. It is a very great app. With a windows or Android devise you are unable to use this one.

Either a feature or separate app that uses your software to make flash cards at someone could draw on and then be able to flip them on the iPad

Add a streamline option for the pen/pencil/marker tools similar to the streamline option in Procreate. That way, those who write in cursive won't have as much trouble with shakiness & therefore there wouldn't be any "jerky" lettering.

Text needs to be improved
- Bullet points and other text features like tables needed to be added
- Switching quickly between preset text fonts and sizes
- Text recognition on pdfs is terrible, some fonts like ones used in some of my text books are hardly searchable
- Text boxes are annoying, don't mix well with handwriting and do not fit into the lines of the default page

Ability to recognize typed text and handwritten text in png or pdf when importing documents or handwritten notes in pdf from another application.

In dark mode, switch automatically to dark paper and white ink, and revert back automatically to light paper and black ink when in light mode.

Would like to have more options regarding math figures.

LectureNotes does this very good (see attached image)

You can create and adjust coordinate systems, grids, dotted patterns, arrows, dotted lines and tables.

Should better and helpful if you can optimize to use ePub files
