  1. Edit Link settings > page by keyboard

    In the "Link settings > page" we have to select the page from thumbnails, this is nice but I wish to be able to add/edit page number also by keyboard. When the number of pages are large it is really time consumming to scroll and search for a page in the list.

  3. Internal and external links for handwriting

    When selecting objects written with pen or highlighter by using the lasso tool, add an option to the lasso tool which allows you to create internal and external links just like we can currently do with text!

  4. Maths Keyboard

    I would appreciate the option to have a maths keyboard on the app. iOS doesn’t have an option to allow me to use key maths symbols which I need for my revision, I am drawing them myself & then manually copying/pasting them whenever needed. Having options to quickly select symbols like ‘sum of’, integral, alpha, beta, delta, pi (etc), would be very convenient and widely used.

  5. Show a list of all notes, comments, and annotations in a document

    There is no way to see just the notes, comments, or annotations made within a documents. Other apps like PDF Expert and Notability do this, making it easy to go through whatever pages have notes written in them or annotations or comments.

    A nice bonus would be to also make comments searchable.

  8. Powerful Scan/ crop

    When you are in the classroom sometimes you take a picture of a projected slide from the side, so the picture is in “diagonal” or angled. There are apps that allow to adjust for the tilted angle to return the picture so it looks like it’s facing forward. It’s better, and more readable. It also takes less room from you note since you don’t have excess corners

    The request idea is to be able to adjust the corners so the picture adjusts the angle and it looks facing forward

  10. Search function for flashcards

    I have hundreds of flash cards as a uni student and I like to access individual ones to refresh my memory as I study. I have seen there is a search function for other documents but cannot find one for flash cards so I can't easily find a specific card without scrolling through the thumbnails? I absolutely love Goodnotes and use it all the time. University would be tons harder without it so thank you :) I would love a thumbnails search function for flashcards please.

  13. Side-by-side pages

    It would be nice being able to see more than one page at the same time. I love the overview that you get in the thumbnail feature but it would be awesome if you could edit the pages while comparing them. (like the feature Microsoft Word has where you can see two pages side by side)

  16. How to Rename Audio Clips?

    Hey!

    GoodNotes 6 recently added the option to rename audio clips but I can’t figure out (because GN never tells you how) how to do it. I tried long pressing on the audio clip or sliding to either sides but the only option I get is to delete it. Please GN: Whenever a new feature becomes available, add a small splash screen tutorial explaining or showing how to make use of the feature.

    Thanks for the reply.

  17. Personal Color Folder (Color Storage)

    In the current Goodnotes application, it is only possible to assign the colors I want to use right now. But there are times that I want to use different colors according to the subject. For example, I like using [blue, red, green, dark purple] set when I'm taking history notes on the bright paper. But I like using [white, bright yellow, bright blue, bright green] when I'm solving math problems on dark paper. It takes quite a time to change all the colors I have on my screen whenever I'm trying to take notes about different subjects.

    So, I propose…

  18. Group Pages in a Notebook

    I use a notebook for music for church band on Sundays. I upload a set of sheet music, and order the music for the Sunday we are going to play it. I would like to group the pages of each song together so when I move one page it moves the entire group of pages for that song at one time. I like to reorganize my pages so the set of songs for each Sunday are in order for that week.
