  1. especially good for slides created via beamer (latex) -
    where things appear in the next slide on top of the current one.
    Horizontal scrolling ruins the effect.

  2. Add a keyboard shortcut to go to the top of a document or bottom of a document on the Mac. It is difficult to move around in large documents without them. Thanks!

  4. “Return option” it would be great that after you open a document and have opened so many pages you could have an option to jump straight to the main documents page instead of clicking so many times to return to open a new Document but still be able to return within that currently open folder or document page by page as it operates now

  7. The problem I currently face when I export my notes in pdf format is that I can only export it with the outline preserved or with searchable characters but not with both features, which is vexing to say the least as both are essential for me to structure my notes.

    It should not be a huge technological barrier for GoodNotes to break through,right? Thanks, I need this new feature stat.

  8. Take a picture with iPhone camera instead of iPad camera.
    For better usability it would be easier to use user's iPhone to take picture and it is a feature I need every day. (Apple notes app has the feature)

  9. Allow the Apple Pencil configurations to include double tapping to switch between the active menu bar and the hidden menu bar. This would quickly allow me to switch between modes when working in a document that has hyperlinks, which require the menu bar to be hidden.

  11. 现在在竖向滑动的状态下,双指缩放只能看到几个页面竖着排列缩小的缩略图,希望可以使缩略图填充页面,比如缩略浏览可以填充周围的空处,同时看到四个或六个页面的内容,并可以进行编辑书写。

  12. Dear All,

    It would be great if Goodnotes could convert underlined handwriting into text as well. Currently, if you try to convert a word with a letter, whose "tail" intersects with the line underneath, the recognition simply doesn't work. Perhaps you could just exclude objects drawn with shape tool from handwriting recognition. Thanks!

  13. Option to select the 3 most used fonts by the user on the top of the font list. At present, I have to scan the whole list to select the desired font if I am inserting text frequently.

  14. Ability for the lasso tool to select multiple items that are different places on the page. I see this being useful for quickly changing the color of multiple lines of text or moving items at the same time.

  16. Feature to denote a particular "to do" which will automatically sync with apple reminders across devices. This way, it rounds up all of the "to do" tasks in one spot and brings to your phone/other devices

  17. Match shortcuts with keys as in a computer. Moreover, when you go to the next page with the keyboard, the page advances but not the page counter and you cannot bookmark that page correctly, for example.

  18. I would love the ability to customize the highlighter and pen default options to my favorite choices so they are quickly available with out having to go into the color picker every time. The ability to add additional pen/highlighter choices to the toolbar would be great too.

  19. It would be great if I can navigate to the folder where the document came from when select back option. It’s difficult when you have a massive nested file system. On the other hand, it would be even better to able navigate where you want in the level of nested file by pressing the file address on the top.

  20. When you are about to write on the edge of a page, GoodNotes doesn't support moving the blue frame beyond the edge so that you could comfortable write in the middle of the screen, while the text is being written on the edge.
    The image shows how I imagined it.

    Unfortunately when not longer holding the frame with a finger the blue frame just goes back.
    Adding this feature would remove the need of having to move the frame to a place where it would auto advance into a comfortable writing position
