  1. Hide text feature (tape)

    adding the tool that enabled you to cover parts of text or just page in general and then reveal what is below just by clicking on it... basically tape feature like in other note-taking apps
    so useful for revising, especially in med, bio, pharm ... and other fields of knowledge

  2. Lock function is required

    Lock function is required

    When I memorize and exercise, I want to rewrite the content on the page after finishing work.
    In this case, lock function is required so that previously made part can not be erased.

    Entire page deleting function is required after rewriting.

    Thanks

  3. Ban links in (this) feedback section

    Among the recent “ideas” I’ve seen more comments sharing links to casino websites than actual useful ideas. I don’t know if there’s already someone moderating the section, but I think it’d be faster to ban links in the comments (I’m not an expert in website development so I don’t know how hard it actually would be)
    Thanks

  4. Using the laso tool to lock drawings/handwritings together

    When writing notes, or creating drawings it could be helpful to have a "lock" tool so when moving/resizing/or color changes can be grouped together (instead of each time needing to circle every individual part and possibly missing something)

  6. Outline AI

    It would be amazing if we could get an Update in Goodnotes 6 with an AI Copilot that outlines the most important informations of a page (also the handwritten) on the side to make them easier to learn. Please also integrate an connection to this AI with the vocabularies, to generate them automatically from the note page.

  8. Along with voice and pen scriblings, can you pls record the laser brush pointer also.

    Your app's seamless integration of voice recordings and ball pen scribblings is impressive. Adding laser brush pointer integration to recordings would further enhance presentations, making them more dynamic. So that we can replay the recorder and see the laser brush pointer run along with the pre written text & the voice recording.

  9. Critical problem: User copy and paste large amount of text into Goodnotes 6 app resulting in data loss

    After I copied 1,409 words from Bear iPadOS app and pasted into Goodnotes 6 iPadOS app, only some text are pasted. Most of it are truncated (data loss) as the pasted text only stops at the first page (current page). The Goodnotes 6 app failed to auto create new pages to cater to the pasted text. This is not a problem for all note taking apps in the iPad App Store.

  10. Speech to text annotation along with audio recording

    I use goodnotes in uni and have audio recording turned on during notes in my lectures. The thing I have noticed is that while helpful, for many of my classes, when I go to make refined notes it means i have to go back and listen to the whole lecture again (often pausing alot write down and catchup with things the prof said). This means that I often have to spend 2-3 hours on a one hour lecture just to get everything the prof said written down so I don’t miss anything. Thats alot of time dedicated to a class…

    I would like to decide the order of my folders completely by myself. This would make it easier to organize all folders.

  12. IOS features also on Windows

    there are a few features that exist on the IOS Application that is missing on the WIndows/WEB Application. for example I am missing the ability to fill in forms and drawings that I made. also, the ability to have several documents open in the same app. I can also not erase notes just by scribbling over them, which might be a problem for Lenovo and also there are just way more possibilities to customize the Pen on the Tablet App.

  13. External View Embed (Websites, Notion Integration, etc)

    Goodnotes already has a website integration. I hope it can create an external embed link that works on 3rd party apps like websites, notion, and anything else simply as a view. This used to work with the website link, but since last year, it has stopped working.

  14. Fix Search function, please

    • there is an issue with it highlighting the correct word so it will show that the word is on the page but it won't highlight it or if it does highlight it the highlighting is not actually on the word so you still have to look around the highlighting to find the word you're looking for

    • there is a glitch that makes searching really slow so I have to retype the word a few times for it to show up

    • sometimes it says the word is not in the document but when I search on other platforms it comes up…

  15. Continuous page drawing

    Please add an update or feature where you can continuously draw from one page to another. It would be helpful for students to connect ideas from one page to another.

  16. Timer for GoodNotes:

    As a teacher, I use GoodNotes on the board by mirroring the app on the display. It would be great if I could directly display a timer for the remaining editing time for my students in GoodNotes. While the split-screen solution with the clock app works, I would prefer a small timer within GoodNotes itself.

  17. Search and Copying functionality for Study Set

    Search functionality

    Study-set page copying functionality, so that I can paste it into different sets of study sets for practising random questions from different topics holistically.

    Table insertion using an apple pen to either draw a table or delete a table.

    Ability to switch between handwriting, typed text and inserting photos, without erasing a study set content.

    Multiple-order bullet points functionality that is computer keyboard friendly.

    I prefer to study from a study set, rather than a flashcard template, because it presents the learning material in fairly large size when I study from my iPad screen (usually) or my computer…
