  1. Fix the Typewriting function. It is atrocious.

  2. In the AppStore (iPadOS), the app is listed as 4+ and with family share. After buying the app (subscription or lifetime), you have to log in and the age rating of the app is changed to 16+. This means that the app is no longer usable for students under the age of 16 and therefore in many schools. Whether this is desired or a bug, this should be changed asap, as thousands of students and teachers work with the app here.
    It is not a (big) problem if the parents of unmanaged iPads pay for the app. But it is…

  3. Create study set from a csv or json file and import to goodnotes.

    Creating large quantities of cards one-by-one is mind-numbing, so it would be much easier to do it on a computer with a keyboard in one big file, then import and study on the go!

    Copy pasting a json card template 300 times is a lot easier than swiping, scrolling, and dealing with an onscreen keyboard to create those cards.

    My specific use case is learning airport codes, airline codes, and other long lists of simple information.

    Other use cases might include:
    - memorizing chemical elements (over 100)…

  4. Please make a chromeOS version and/or and android compatible, since ChromeOS can emulate android app through Googel Play Store.
    Most of students in Brazil use chrome devices

  5. I hate that the new update collapsed pen sizing into a drop menu. This messes with my workflow because I tend to do fast pen switching and now it feels more clunky now that there's a fourth color option. Please allow for toolbar editing/rearranging.

  6. I wish we could change the settings to the setup of the toolbar. I am left handed, and it is inconvenient for the entire toolbar to be centered toward the right of the screen. There should be a setting to center the toolbar on the left or true center, as this immobility significantly increases the amount of time needed to switch between writing tools or use the undo/redo feature.

  7. There have been several instances where I have tried to write on the left margin of my paper and since I am left-handed, I cannot move the paper enough to the right for my preferred zoom level to write. If you zoom in a lot to where it fills your screen, there is no ability to extend the paper any more than the margin of your screen.

  8. Before, I could use the highlighter, close the toolbar, reopen the toolbar, and still find the highlighter selected. Now when I close and reopen the toolbar, the pen is selected.
    Would you please fix this?
    Thanks

  9. ~just like SAT interactive learning, a MCAT interactive learning system to help student memorize many things like pathways in bio/chem, equations for physics/math, & also some flashcards could really help. Practice problems for bio, chem, and physics

  10. Allow us to input a number for the size. That way we can ensure our stickers are all uniform in size instead of guesstimating with the drag feature.

  11. In GoodNotes 5 it was possible to import a document from an external app and it would set to save to the folder which was open last. If you didn't want the document to be saved there you would have to change it. Now in GoodNotes 6 it is always set to all document which is annoying. Can you please change is back like it was in GoodNotes 5 :)

  14. When you copy drawn lines, if a large area is selected or there are many curves selected, copying may take a long time. It would be nice to be able to cancel the copying process, as it is troublesome to have to wait until the copying is finished, even when you have copied by mistake.

  15. I would prefer some Templates in other Languages like German, French etc.
    The most Templates can't be used for foreigners.
    The Cook Book for Example is a good Idea, but it would be better if it ist in different languages.

  17. As a piano teacher, I use GoodNotes for my student's lesson assignments and refer to other pages within that document (e.g. scale fingerings see pg. 7, chord voicings see pg. 11, etc). It would be nice if the pages could be accessed via a link to them without having to scroll through 12 pages; and then, if I add a page and page 7 becomes page 8, the link automatically updates to the pages new position within the document. This would be a game changer!

  18. PLEASE let us change font on the full-page mode pages. And please add dyslexia fonts like OpenDyslexic.

    And if you do this, while you’re at it, it would be great to be able to change the font of the whole note at once and not having to do it page by page.

    It would really be a game changer, love the app otherwise

  19. Please setup a note just like “Freeform”which you can write nonstop and connect ideas together on an unlimited screen
    Love the recording feature however if you can set it up to play from the point you touch your slide or when you wrote something it will much helpful.

    If they are sounding vague please give me a call and I can explain more

  20. Seamless page is especially crucial for moving images from one page to the other instead of needing to copy and paste if the image is on the wrong page.
