  1. Tap to turn. The app is for ipad, it’s unintuitive then that the flash card starts on typing and you have to tap into a different screen to start writing with stylus. Generally, no one using goodnotes is trying to type their things. I also don’t like having to go in and out in and out to write the question and then it’s answer, I suggest having a double tap feature where the card in question is able to flip for ease of editing either sides.

  2. At the moment one can switch from the document viewer to the file explorer … but not the other way around. From a UI / UX standpoint, this flaw is very frustrating.

    This problem was raised several years ago but apparently ignored. The currently suggested 'solution' (to use the search button and select a document from there) just does not cut it. A 'hack' is never a good solution to a design flaw.

  5. It would be useful to be able to create more detailed table of contents with sub-tables of contents for each chapter, like in some PDF files. This would allow better organization and structure of the notes. Moreover, it would be convenient to be able to specify the exact location where a chapter begins, so that the link from the table of contents leads directly to the right position on the page, and not to the beginning of the page.

    Here is a visual example of what a more detailed table of contents with sub-tables of contents could look like:

  7. I travel a lot with work so the week before I take my trip I plan everything out in my GoodNotes app. I would love to be able to add a gif, emoji or image to my planner and be able to click it and add a link to image. so if I need to get to my hotel from the airport I can click the copy of my check in confirmation I have saved as an image to my planner page and my link for the driving directions I copied from google loads up my map. Would also love…

  8. Please add an ability to randomize the order of your cards like in practice mode.

    I just checked in practice mode and now i created many card for which it makes no sense to see them in the order they were created in.

    Thank You so much!

  9. Is there a way to improve the loading speed of the app?

    When I open Goodnotes it takes a while to load the library so that I can choose my notebook, or if I had a notebook open last, it takes a while to load that. During this time the app seems to be frozen. It does the same thing when I'm switching back and forth from another app back to Goodnotes.

    Sometimes Goodnotes opens immediately, other times it can take up to 20 seconds to load, which is a long time to wait when you need to take a…

  14. It would be of most use if a specific note on the sheet could be associated with an audio file saved in the notes. For example there could be a dot that prompts to the audio saved (the same way comments work), while also being able to change its name and description!

  15. Please includes a customizable color palette with the ability to add and save custom colors for text styling. This feature is similar to the digital pen's color to create colorful text quickly and easily.

  17. It would be useful to add reverse mod in Card's Smart Revise Regime so you can choose not only by the question but by the answer too. Same idea is now realized in Training Regime.

  18. When checking the answer in smart learning mode, I would like you to choose the action in which the card is turned back. Although the action of the card turning backwards is intuitive, it is difficult because it takes a long time to keep checking multiple things.

    Thank you!

  19. It would be nice if each notebook could store a set of tools. This would be to select the 3 sizes that the application allows you and a series of colors for a specific notebook, that is, that the sizes are not modified in general, but only for that notebook. This could be implemented with a padlock-like button to lock the settings for that notebook only.
    It would be great for when you import a pdf of a different size from the notebook you usually use and you want to write on that pdf.

  20. A flat marker pen like for flipcharts would be really great. For the highligter and the writing pen.

    Also a streamline option (with the ability to set the strongness of the streamline) for the pens and highlighters would be also great to smooth out the handwriting. Just like you can set it in procreate.

    Thanks a lot!
