  1. Object Orientation Snapping

    If I have a line at any arbitrary angle and wanted to draw another line at the same angle, it would be nice to have a feature that would give me the option. Similar to notability or PowerPoint, matching object dimensions, angles, or even centers of concentric circles would be amazing. As a physics student, I have to draw many diagrams and often times I will either have a terrible diagram because i know I won’t have time to make a nice drawing with matching dimensions or I miss crucial information while trying to get my lines to be the…

  2. Request for Enhanced Pen Formatting Features in GoodNotes Application

    I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude for the GoodNotes application that you have developed. It has been tremendously helpful in my daily studies and work, providing an excellent and convenient platform for recording and organizing my thoughts.

    While I am satisfied with many features of GoodNotes, there is a particular function that I believe could further enhance the application if incorporated. This is the ability to adjust the format of handwriting. I've noticed that we can already modify the color of our strokes, which is a very practical feature. However, if we could also adjust the thickness…

  3. Ability to combine study sets, or to duplicate cards and selectively combine sets

    I am creating study sets for each module, but it would be good to create a master set so that throughout my degree it is possible to revise the most important bits from each module in one set

  4. Double tap to turn study card

    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.

  5. Button to switch between File Explorer and Currently Open Documents

    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.

  8. Improve the creation and navigation of table of contents

    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:

  12. loading speed

    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…

  17. Improve Text and Recording function

    Hi, I'm a user about Goodnotes since 2018.
    I suggest a few things to improve the Goodnotes.
    This writing was written including opinions of Goodnotes users around me.

    First, syncs of the Recording function and Text Box
    When I record and write at the same time, the writing syncs with the time of the recording. But it doesn't work in text box mode.
    So I recommend you to syncronize the time of the text coming out and the recorded audio.

    Second, Recording search function
    I would like to be able to hear the recording of that part when I touch…

  18. Link audio with a specific note

    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!
