  1. I would like to suggest adding a feature that allows users to copy text formatting within the app. This would greatly enhance efficiency when working with different styles and layouts.

  3. Hi, I feel like this should be relatively easy to implement since we already have the audio recording option. But I would like the option to also upload an mp3 and take notes alongside it. If you are like me sometimes you will have to miss lectures for meetings and other projects. It would be awesome if I could upload the lecture audio mp3 and take notes with it instead of having to rerecord it through my ipad microphone.

  4. With the new apple pencil pro, integrate the option to squeeze to erase and then when you stop, it goes back to your previous tool. I believe this is a new feature in notability.

  6. Add the option of a continuous page that doesn’t end (similar to notability) to help notes be kept together and make it easier to move words around

  7. About tape tilt
    When you pull the masking tape, it ends up at an angle, which is inconvenient.
    Therefore, I would like to be able to pull the tape straight instead of diagonally.

  8. Viewing two pages side by side is convenient for studying worksheets, as it feels like opening a book. Of course, you can use Split View or Stage Manager on an iPad to achieve a similar effect, but it would be great if GoodNotes had this feature built-in.

  9. Goodnotes orders our documents based on date, name, and type. Maybe there is a way we can order our documents however we would like as well.

  10. It seems small problem but changing pen directly from toolbar in one tap will be game changer .. changing colour is simple we know but changing ballpoint, brush and fountain pen directly is only imagination

  11. It would be fantastic to display other Apps ( for Schoolbooks. Pdf. , etc. ) on a second screen and open a document in goodnotes to make notes.

    The normal iOS note does it in this way.
    Goodnotes directly switches to presenter Mode if i open a document and hides my digital Schoolbooks.

    Should be like shown on the picture.

    IPad make notes
    Second screen display something

  12. We need to be able to set more colors than 3 to the colors squeeze color section.
    3 is just way to limited, this reminds me of the old Goodnotes where it took ages to get more than 3 colors in the top bar....

  13. A lot of people, including myself can't really use iCloud for professional or personal reasons, and so it would help immensely if we can have Goodnotes sync be a feature for other cloud services like Onedrive or google drive. I don't mean the automatic backup feature, I mean live syncing between devices via Onedrive and other applications

  14. The search results highlight for a single word is too soft and light. It's quite difficult to find the word on the page. Please make the hilight much more prominent

  15. It would be useful to have atimer that can make a noise when the countdown has over.
    And the timer could be out the notebooks.

  16. A search bar when you select the “Element” tool so you can search for specific types of sticker. Ex: “Check mark” or “Red Book”. I have a few huge sticker packs and it takes forever trying to find a specific sticker.

  17. For professors, researchers, and students that use Goodnotes for annotations and highlighting, a nightmode would be awesome. Night mode would invert the white pixels to darker black and alter the black text to white, creating a more readability at night.

    Annotation happens at night for most of us who research, A night mode that can be toggled or adjusted with iOS night mode would be phenomenonal.

  20. Once I’m in a notebook and I want to return to the previous folder almost 99% the home button brings me to the home page and I have to go through all the folders again in order to get where I need to be.
