Major UX Overhaul needed for Flashcards & Study Sets
While Goodnotes is world-class for note-taking and PDF annotation, the flashcard creation and editing interface feels outdated and clunky by comparison. The UI is unintuitive and lacks the fluid editing experience found in the rest of the app.
Furthermore, the current 'Smart Learn' mode is not advanced enough for high-volume users. I would like to see a true Spaced Repetition System (SRS) implemented—similar to Anki’s algorithm—where cards are shown based on specific difficulty levels and memory retention. At the very least, please allow us to customize these intervals. For medical students, having a programmable and efficient flashcard system is essential…

Lack of interoperability for Flashcards / Study Sets
Goodnotes is an amazing tool for handwriting, but its Flashcard system feels isolated. Currently, compatibility with other apps is non-existent because the app only accepts and exports its own format.
I want to be able to share my materials with friends who use different platforms and vice versa. It would be a game-changer if Goodnotes allowed us to export/import sets in common formats (like those used by Anki). In a high-stakes environment like medical school, interoperability isn't just a 'plus'—it’s a necessity. Please stop the format lock-in and let us study collaboratively!2 votes -
Docs - allow customizing highlight color
In a Text Docs when I use the color highlighter I cannot select the same colors as in a handwritten note or where I insert a text box. In text docs there is a very limited number of highlighters and the color cannot be customized.

Handwritten text inside tables
Currently tables can only be created inside documents; and in documents you cannot write handwritten text.
In the future, if tables will be available inside whiteboards and notes, would be useful to have handwritten text inside tables.
Of course a limit could be the cell. Once you began to write in a cell, the cell or the related column and row should expand accordingly to the size of the text or, once you finish to write the handwritten text, and the text is bigger compared to the cell, it should be hidden like what happens in ms excel.2 votes -
Let users remove all AI bloat from app
I am not going to pretend that NOBODY uses Goodnotes AI but lets be real here, you guys must read what people say online, it is NOT as popular as the updates and focus on AI would make you believe.
But just because its trendy and a fraction of people use it, the rest of us are forced to have this stuff taking up spaces and hogging resources when it provides us with no use whatsoever.
In an ideal world you would have classic Goodnotes being worked on and improved consistently and then a separate Goodnotes AI app for the…

Slack Integration
I'd like to see integrations made with Slack - the ability to assign/tag a person to a task. The ability to share a Goodnotes document with Slack which would allow Mac/Windows/Linux users to see those notes.

Project Management / To Do Management
Create a PM/To Do Management template that has the ability to create custom fields with dropdown lists.
For Example:
Auto Date Created
PM/To Do Name - Conduct Ongoing Training
Assigned To <Multi Picklist & Drop Down Options of names we created in settings) - It would also be great to be able to assign this to people in a MS Exchange Server or Slack Server (we use both)
Note: We need to identify training refresher topics.
Due Date: Optional field that can integrate back to MS Exchange Calendar, Outlook 365 calendar, Thunderbird calendar, and Google.
Status: Dropdown of predefined fields…

Live Collaboration Mac to Windows
I've had to move to OneNote (which I am not fond of) because I am the only one using a Mac. I wanted to create an Agenda where I could tag people to assign them to tasks. However, I was not able to get the sharing/collaboration to work because all the other team members are using Windows. I need to be able to share from Mac to Windows and Windows to Mac while allowing live collaboration where we can all make edits and share updates.

Ability to skew while cropping images.
It would be awesome if we could skew images taken with the app by adjusting the four corners of the rectangular crop independently similar to how microsoft lens works (please see attached photos for example). As it stands I am using that app and then importing the images I take of whiteboards and documents.

Apple Pencil Pro
When using the Squeeze feature on Apple Pencil Pro, adding a feature that lets you “scroll” through your saved preset colors the same way we can scroll through the tools would be useful, instead of only having access to the first 3 colors.

Audio recordings improvement for new Update
The new update is not user-friendly at all. The toolbar is difficult to use, and this is especially evident in the audio recording feature. When you start recording, a separate window appears outside the toolbar, taking up screen space and getting in the way. In the previous version, recording was indicated only by a small discreet icon in the toolbar, so writing wasn’t interrupted.
In addition, when you play back the recording, every time you want to stop it and play it again, another unnecessary panel pops up on the left side of the screen, making the process time-consuming.Overall,…

AI Audio Overview from notes or PDF like notebook LM
Notebook LM has a great feature where you can create an audio overview using AI that creates a podcast episode from the content. This is the only reason I use Notebook LM as well as goodnotes and I think this should be on Goodnotes' roadmap as party of becoming a leading AI notebook took.

Pin Notes & Folders for Quick Access
I truly appreciate the powerful note-taking experience that GoodNotes offers. However, I would love to see a Pin Notes feature and a Quick Access Folder option to enhance workflow efficiency.
Currently, navigating between different notes for ongoing study, work, or projects requires extra steps, which can be time-consuming. A pinned notes section would allow users to keep frequently used documents easily accessible.

"Destress" & Mindfulness Templates
Since we already have our screens and pencils out for studying, what if GoodNotes added a default category of "Destress" notebook templates?
Instead of just blank or lined paper, these would be templates designed specifically for taking a quick 5-minute mental break. As someone who loves art and sketching to unwind, I think having these built right into the app would be incredibly helpful for student mental health.
Some ideas for the templates could be:
Pages with geometric patterns, overlapping circles, or simple designs to just colour in
Shapes to trace or simple drawing prompts to get your mind off…

Auto-add date and folder name when creating new files
It would be really helpful if, when creating a new notebook or whiteboard, GoodNotes could automatically include the current date (e.g. “September 1, 2025”) and optionally the name of the folder (e.g. “NameFolder – September 1, 2025”) in the file name.
This would greatly improve file organization, especially for users who create many documents daily (like teachers) and want to keep everything tidy without having to rename files manually.7 votes -

Fix the typing features ASAP
The typing feature really needs some attention guys. Tell me why when I try to type a page of notes the whole thing glitches out and either won't save my stuff or doubles all the words I've written on top of each other. You also can't continue typing onto a new page like it suggests. This new update also lowkey made the feature worse because now you can't just click on a page to type and you also have to click back to the textbox icon every time you want to drop a box. Overall, the typing features are inefficient…

사진 이미지 모달(팝업) 기능
사진을 올릴때 그냥 큰 이미지를 바로 올리는 것이 아닌, 모달(팝업) 형태로도 올릴 수 있게 해주세요.
링크추가 기능을 사용할때 나오는 오브젝트 같은걸 클릭하면 등록한 이미지가 모달(팝업)의 형태로 나오도록 구현하고, 빈공간이나 x표시를 누르면 모달이 사라지도록 구현하면 좋을 것 같아요.
그러면 많은 개념들을 정리할때 큰 이미지나 다양한 이미지를 하나의 페이지에 깔끔하게 정리할 수 있을 것 같아요.
감사합니다. 좋은 하루 되세요.
