  1. Shape recognition additions

    I'd like to see arrows, for dimensional drawings, in shape recognition mode. Even better would be including the handwriting recognition with this to create something like

    | <------ 3 1/2" ------> |

    Using the stylus. Also curves. I'm sketching some planned remodeling and being able to draw doorways and add dimensions easily would help.

  3. Zoom percentage pleasee we neeed iiit

    Adding a zoom percentage somewhere on the screen. It would help all the pencil writing comunity to write always on the zoom you want so no more BIG LETTERED phrases compared to others you accidentally wrote with a bigger zoom.

  4. Language recognition in documents

    Greetings! I love using Goodnotes for taking notes in my lectures. I study in my native language (Czech) and English and I need to take notes effectively in both. However, current Goodnotes force me to set a recognition language for my documents (my native language not offered) which causes me great struggles. I am basically incapable of properly writing in Czech even with an exclusively Czech keyboard.

    Not necessarily having to choose a recognition language would be of great help. Keyboard settings does that for you already.

  5. Audio transcribing.

    I definitely think the “Audio transcribing feature” should function on all iPad models. As it is a great tool for taking notes during class and multiple other things.

  6. Changing sequence of tabs

    Easier sorting of tabs. I usually have 10 documents open at the same time. If I want to change the order, it requires a lot of dexterity. Perhaps a move function with arrows could be implemented. Thank you very much.

  11. Tape toggle to reveal/cover all tapes at once without removing

    Can you change the "Remove all tape" button to a toggle, or make a separate toggle tool to temporarily remove/transparent all tape so when we are not using it, we have the option of reading our notes fully without having to delete all tape and reapply them when needed.

    I love the tape feature and I believe it is very useful, but it would be time-consuming to click 'Remove all tape' and reapply them back, or manually tap on each individual tapes when you want to reveal everything when you're read all your notes and when you want to cover…

  12. I want to lock text boxes and photos.

    I want to lock text boxes and photos.
    If I put a lot of text boxes and photos, they move with the slightest touch and I need to do something about the mess on the edit screen. I really want this done now. I want the text boxes and photos to stay put. By the way, freeboard has a lock feature.

  13. Greek language in Goodnotes 6 .

    Dear Goodnotes 6 Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. As a member of the Greek-speaking community, I would like to kindly request the addition of the Greek language to your speech-to-text feature.

    The Greek language, with its rich history and vibrant community, is used by millions worldwide, including students, professionals, and academics who rely on tools like Goodnotes for their daily tasks. Enabling speech-to-text in Greek would significantly enhance the accessibility and usability of your app for a large portion of your user base. This feature would benefit not only native Greek speakers but also those learning the…

  14. "Add Margin" Button for writing notes on lecture slides

    Allows you to add margins to select pages within your current notebook/file. This will help students who import lecture slides from a professors course page, and then they can "Add Margins" to the slides to provide additional space to take notes instead of having to write cluttered notes directly on the lecture slides. Could have multiple different margin options: increase entire border, or only add extra space above/below, or left/right of the original content.

  18. "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" in GoodNotes for iPad

    I noticed that my iPad battery gets drained very quickly when I use Goodnotes. It would be great if the Goodnotes team could introduce the features of "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" so that it won't consume a lot of battery when I don't need peak performance.

    Also, it would be even great to have to GoodNotes team decrease the overall battery consumption of app without introducing those 2 features :)

  19. lock textboxes

    It would be nice to be able to lock text boxes/ images/ stickers/ etc. to the background of the paper so that we can layer and arrange things to our liking. To enable editing of the locked item, you would have to press and hold the item, where a pop up that says "unlock/ positioning" (to adjust layering) will show.

  20. To link across documents

    To Link across documents
    Make it more useable like LiquidText , like just linking things with just connecting words and pages. Which will be more helpful for researching.
    Add a side notes taking freespace for pdfs like LiquidText , which will also be very helpful.
