  3. In the last update the 3 pen thickness options have disappeared from the tool bar to make space for the more colors options. As students, need to change the THICKNESS of the pens very quickly and countless times when taking notes.

    PLEASE BRING IT BACK ON THE TOOLBAR!!

  6. Hi guys. I love this app, But GoodNotes does not support the Portuguese language. Please fix this. Portuguese and Brazilian users would appreciate this care. Please! With the excellent Handwriting Recognition, it is very important.

  7. I used good notes for many different things, college note taking, filling in pdf documents, bullet journal. Please add an option to save more than one default text.
    The font i use for note taking sometimes is too small for the font required to fill in documents. And my bujo is dark themed so the font needs to be white. It gets tedious having to change it everytime i open a text box depending on the document i am working on

  9. Ich nutze Goodnotes viel im Mathematikunterricht für Tafelanschriebe usw. Ich finde das Programm super, vor allem der Präsentationsmodus ist genial.
    Was mir noch fehlt sind Zeichengeräte (Lineal, Geodreieck -> so ähnlich wie in der Notizen App von Apple), damit könnte ich Goodnotes noch viel umfassender nutzen...

  10. Any chance of more modern notebook covers (e.g. Leather, black covers)? And more writing tools, like pencils, various types of pen?

  11. I would like the ability to "lock" a finished set of notes. I inevitably end up putting scratch marks across my pages as I am flipping through pages when I review my notes.

    Along the same lines, a quick toolbar button that would enable/disable gestures on the fly would stop the page bounce when I get into writing frenzy mode..

  12. As a teacher i use the app as an interactive whiteboard with a beamer and Apple TV (Airplay). This offers me a very good and cheap smartboard (interactive whiteboard) The app is almost perfect, but i am missing a simple pointer and a curtain to hide solutions from the pupils, when we are filling out a task sheet together.
    Also nice was a feature to record a lesson, like in doceri or have a timeline.

  14. I would like to have an fast way to undo or redo something without aiming for the small buttons all the time. Maybe it is possible to implement a two-finger-swipe area to cover this function. Even if it would be only active during the editing in the zoomed window mode this would be increase the workflow.

  16. Need to be able to lock individual items. In planners sometimes the layout itself is a sticker. Need to lock that so I can move the stickers above without the bottom one moving.

  17. Even after hiding the status bar, GoodNotes still consumes screen real estate. Let's add an option to hide the navigation bar with the gallery and search and share button. It's not very useful most of the time while working on one document.

    Likewise, hiding the editing toolbar gains space but then editing is turned off. The toolbar could simply fold itself into one button in the top right corner so that the user can focus on the document and the text they are writing and get it back when they need it by tapping the screen or using a touch…

  18. When you rotate an object after using the lasso, it is not possible to keep the size because the functions are mixed. Resizing and rotating should be two functions or you need to be able to lock the size while rotating.

  19. it would be great to be able to rotate objects without changing size or scale. For example rotating text boxes or drawings, to keep the same size but get a different angle. Thanks!
