  1. Scribble , presets for font size

    1) We can sure update scribble without a text box like we have in apple notes.
    2) Also we can have three different font size presets so we can easily change font size faster. Same should be done in the fonts , like favourite fonts so that we don't have to scroll down

  2. staves

    As a musician I would love so much to see a tool in Goodnotes which would allow to draw perfect parallel lines for music staves in any length. The optimum would be to be able to select the number of lines drawn, from only one when needed for percussion/pure rhythm notation to five for the regular system and even up to six lines (for guitar tablature). The famous music app ForScore has this feature in pro version which works great, but the general functionality of drawing and colouring in this app is so poor, I feel GoodNotes is light years…

  3. Improve tab spacing when typing

    When using text boxes, I can only tab across the screen to a certain extent (about 1/3 of the page width) before the cursor jumps to the next line. When trying to type around embedded images or handwritten notes, it’s extremely frustrating to use the tab key only so far and then have to press and hold the space bar for the cursor to go exactly where I want. It would be great if you added the ability to use the tab key across the entire page if we wanted to instead of having the cursor move to the next…

  5. Please, add the locking function

    I ask you to add the locking function, each folder or file.
    I think it would be perfect if that function was added.
    Please consider it positively.

  9. online notes

    I am an apple user as well as a windows user, i think it would be great for the community to have the possibility to register online with the same account as in the ipad or mac, and be able to see our notes from the website and not just in the app

  10. Faster scrolling

    In other apps like Notability, the scrolling is quite fast and "normal". When I tried to switch to GoodNotes, the first thing I realized is the fairly slow scrolling. Please make the scrolling faster because it can get really annoying trying to scroll around finding notes but it takes too long.

  11. Change stroke thickness by swiping up/down on size selector icon

    I use the stroke thickness A LOT.

    The new update has hidden the stroke width selectors.
    I understand that you need the space for more colors, and am fine with the updated setup.

    A “swipe up/down on icon” gesture to change the stroke’s thickness solves my problem pretty well, without needing a buttons and layout redesign.

    The current 2 tap design has killed off my speed. I didn’t realise that a single additional tap would derail me so much.

  13. GoodNotes Andoid on my Fold 4

    I love GoodNotes on iOS but would LOVE to use it on my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 which is 7.6" - just shy of the 8" minimum. Any chance as the beta goes, GoodNotes will open up to my size screen?

  14. GoodNotes for Windows

    I know the Windows version for GoodNotes is still in the Beta, but I would like to suggest making it like the App Version. I'm also missing the Text tool. I'm only working on my desktop pc, so it's useless to use GoodNotes. It would be such a blast if this could be added in the future to make it useable for everyone.

  15. Absolute Eraser

    I think that an absolute eraser would be beneficial for Goodnotes. It would work with a higher level of erasing than what is currently available, not only erasing annotations but erasing whatever was imported. For example, importing a handout from university, an absolute eraser would allow us to erase a specific paragraph so that we can write and reword it better which fits our understanding better. This is not limited to rephrasing but also making it such that some words may be erased for fill in the blanks to promote active recall without the need to do flash cards. I…

  16. Improve studysets

    I don't know why there are two options
    1.Making flashcards using flashcards template
    2.Making flashcards using study sets
    Instead you can combine both to make it best .Read following point to know how ...
    1.There should be only one option to make flashcards (either by "Flashcard" / "Studyset" name )
    2. In this we can make our flashcard with all those options that are present in making flashcard using flashcard template
    a.Like editing image-by cropping it ,writing on it etc ,unlike studysets where we get only 3 options (text,image & sketching)

    b.Could share only selected flashcards instead of sharing whole…

  17. Select All Option

    It would be nice to say "Select all handwriting" or simply "select all". Oftentimes when I need to resize I have to draw my lasso around the whole object multiple times because it misses a small or large portion. It would make resizing much easier if we could just say select all.

  18. More highlighter color displayed on tab, if possible at least 5.

    Kindly add this feature of more highlighter color displayed on tab since as a student I use minimum of 5 highlighter colors to study and also to read personal books. It was such a hassle to change color by tapping the additional color instead of just having a 5 color option displayed. It will save A LOT OF TIME for those who study with this style who uses color coding scheme. Please help us.

  19. Flashcards Overview

    The new flashcard feature is great, now we can see the cards in a bigger way. The only thing that would be useful, would be if we had an overview over all the cards like we do in a normal notebook over all the pages, so that we can find specific cards more easily.

  20. Image occlusion…PLEASE.

    I would honestly pay extra for this app literally just for that.
