  1. When arranging objects I would like to be able to send back and forward some items between items. If I have more than two overlapping objects, it’s a pain to place objects in the order I want. For example, there are apps the send the object completely to the back or front, but I can also send forward or backwards the object not entirely to the back. I don’t want to send back an object but then have to send front the other and the other to have them in the correct arrangement. This happens when working a collage or…

  2. Sometimes we users forget to stop the audio recording, and wake up the next day to a notebook that has been recording for 12+ hours. Currently there is no way to trim the audio recording. It would be great if it were possible to trim it so only the part we're interested in remains in the notebook :D

  3. I'd love to pause the recording and resume without creating multiple recording files in my notebook. The functionality to edit recordings would be great as well.

  4. Windows, Web & Android need to be included with the purchases of Mac and IOS versions. Currently Goodnotes 6 has a one time purchase and yearly subscription for the Apple versions but only has yearly options for Windows, Web & Android. As someone who has a windows computer but also an ipad i have to pay 10$ a year to have my account work on both windows and ios.

  6. 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.

  8. 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!

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  13. 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

  15. 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.

  18. 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)

  20. I'd like to create flashcards because it helps a lot in recalling topics for exams. It also gets easier to have this as a sort of note-taking. Please I'm begging Goodnotes for this feature to be included in the Goodnotes for 'Windows', this means a lot. Thank You.
