  1. Currently only rectangular borders are available for a text box. I would like to be able to change this to a circle or an oval and have it auto size around the text.

  2. We are able to record audios using GN but once inside the app it is impossible to get them to use a 3rd party to get the transcripts

    It would be nice if we can download the files or get them out of good notes

  3. Create tool/wizart to import Evernote "ENEX" files to GoodNotes .
    ENEX fiels are created by Evernote . THe migration to GN would be much much more easy for new GN users!!!

  4. Currently I use Goodnotes 6. It's the paid version. My bulletpoints don't indent when I hit Tab on my MacBook Pro in the typing mode. This seems silly for me to have a paid app that doesn't even have normally functioning bulletpoints. Even Apple Notes has this. It would be great if the bulletpoints functioned normally.

    Other than this small thing, I love Goodnotes! The AI features in the latest update are mind blowing!

  5. I already had Goodnotes 5, and upgraded to Goodnotes 6 by paying the full price. After a few days I realized that the new features do not work for me, so I reverted back to GoodNotes 5. I would like receive a refund for the price of Goodnotes 6.

  7. Hello,

    It would be convenient when looking through the document file browser, if there was an easy way to view the thumbnails of a document without opening the document. I have so many documents in goodnotes, and currently I have to open a document and then open the thumbnails view and then close the document each time i want to see whats inside a document.

    It would be a lot easier if there was a button in the file browser to open the thumbnail view, without opening the document. Then if i want to open the document, maybe there could…

  9. I usually work a lot in the magnifier mode. The AI options seem not to be working in magnifier mode.
    If, scribble to erase, circle to select, and handwriting spell check available in magnifier mode, It would be great.

  10. I want to be able to add pictures by copying and pasting (ctrlC+ctrlV) files from elsewhere into the notes, and be able to drag and drop picture files into notes. This is possible in Google Docs, and more convenient than the current feature, where you have to go click add a picture and then look for the picture.

  11. I truly need this option for my academic notes, as I often write on the keyboard. There are 3 options regarding the adjustment of text, and yet you still cannot justify it evenly, as in Microsoft Word.

  12. I want to use GoodNotes now in school, but if possible still in college. Is it possible to pay for GoodNotes for Windows only once forever?
    If not can you please do that. Your program is so good.

    Kind regards

  13. For Goodnotes 6, the search function is way poorer than it was in Goodnotes 5. It was now harder to search for some words that I can easily find in Goodnotes 5. I don’t want to have a downgrade though so please, please improve the search button to find more accurate.

    If it’s not too much to ask, could we have an option as well to change color of searched words in search button? Because it’s only in orange color and it’s hard if we we’re using orange highlighter.

    Thank you so much.

  14. Using Apple or Google or other accounts to login to good notes is a terrible privacy practice. Why would I want to share my good notes data with those companies and why would I want to share my other data with Good Notes. Will not be upgrading so long as v6 requires account login without an email address option.

  15. When importing a pdf into Goodnoes, they should by default go into the active folder, not into “Documents” root.
    You guys had it right in Goodnotes 5 but not in 6, I have had to revert back to 5 until this is solved. When it works properly, I can upgrade.

  16. When creating custom outlines, Goodnotes' current behavior is to order any same-page outline sections alphabetically. I'd love to be able to arbitrarily reorder them for the sake of coherence and clarity. For example:

    1. I add a section on [page 58] titled "Act I, Scene 7".

    2. Further down on [page 58], I'd like to add a section titled "9. PARKER FAMILY SINGALONG".

    If you look at the included screenshot, you'll see that the order of what's on the page can't be preserved by the outline because there's no way to reorder same-page sections within an outline. This can lead to some…

  19. This is what I primarily use the app for, this version is really disappointing for this reason, making students in my study group all purchase this makes me using his app useless, I’m going to look for another one with shareable flashcards features, it’s too bad I really liked this one

  20. I would like to share notes with others (expecially non-goodnote users) in view only mode. As a result, I would not be worried about unwanted modifications of my notes, while being able to share information.
