  1. An option to change the page size of an imported PDF

    I read books in PDF. The editorial margins are usually decided for print publication. I would like the ability to increase the page size to have more space to take notes.

    Thanks.

  7. Open PDF directly instead of import

    Would be great to have the option to open PDF files directly, e.g. from iCloud Drive. After some edits were applied, save the changes in the file directly.

    I‘ve organized all my files in iCloud. Using Good Notes I always have duplicates and there’s a noticeable amount of work to keep them synced, besides that the export flattens the PDF so no further edits are possible.

  11. Black page template

    Just as you provide a native white or yellow page, it would be great if you could provide a native black page. I use a custom template (black page + white ink), but it does not feel native (e.g., rendering delays when scrolling). Thanks!

    Create word hypolinks - To different page / book or internet

    On selection of text or image, be able to turn it into a hypolink, from here give us the options to select a page from either the same book or a different one, or either insert a url which would load up internet browser.

  14. Compress the size of exported PDFs

    Even small documents (4-5 pages) seem to result in 6+ MB-sized documents. I think the fill colour option of the shape tool might be the culprit.

  15. Jump back to the last place being edited in a note when the note Tab is selected, not to the start page, or cover page

    It is very irritating when you touch a Note Tab, either deliberately or by accident, then that not opens at the cover page, not at the last page being edited. You have to select the thumbnails and scroll to the last page. Have an option in settings that states when selecting a note tab continue at the last page being edited or cover page.

  20. Adjustment of highlighting tool

    • Add the option to save preferred, individual colours (now: when typing in a colour code and then changing the colour, you have to type in the code again because there is no possibility to go back to your individual colour)

    • Make it possible to highlight in a rectangle (straight, squared line) and not round

    • Expand options of highlighting colours (more shiny and bright like real highlighters, packages like pastel colours)

    • Add option to make highlighting automatically straight (without having to use the shape button)
