  1. There already exists the option to hyperlink typed text, which is great. But many people, including myself, primarily handwrite notes, and it would be very helpful to add the feature to select some handwritten text and attach a hyperlink to it, and also the option to attach a hyperlink to an inserted object, like an image.

    On top of that, a fantastic addition would be to allow linking to other in-app locations, text or objects, whether that be clicking the linked text or object and being taken to the linked text, object, or location in the same notebook, or in…

  3. To greatly improve the quality of this application, in terms of practicality and time saving, I suggest:
    - have an "eyedropper" mode, to select a color already present on its page and be able to use it
    - to be able to have a filling function of our shapes and our diagrams, without having to spend time coloring
    - offer more style of pens

  8. Just happened to compare my writing on goodnotes & notability, goodnotes seems to have lag with my writing whereas notability is super smooth with an unnoticeable lag. Kindly look up to resolve as goodnotes is my favourite.

  10. We are already able to copy an image to clipboard with the lasso tool.
    Would be great if we could insert that image directly from clipboard without saving it to photos which will not create junks in the photos. A pretty small idea but an efficient one

  12. It would be great to a have a "visual graph" of the audio recordings (volume level).

    Use case:
    While listening to a recording of a long lecture\meeting you can easily navigate to parts with higher volume (speaking parts) and avoid silent ones.

  13. It would be great if one could move/drag the page higher, so that the hand would still lie on the tablet when one wants to write at the very bottom of the page.

  14. It would be great to name and save Audioclips to a page. This way you can hear only the information on the page you are looking at without searching for the right audio or for the right Minute in the audio. The audio should stick right to a page where you need it.

  15. Now the goodnotes on windows beta can only create notes files but can not open the notes files created by ios or share the files to other equipments. Naturally, I know that now the beta version can not sync with iphone or mac, however, the functions I mentioned beyond is also very important.

  16. A highlighter or a tool that transforms text into bold text (just in PDF or similar, not in raster images), to stand out without background color

  17. Changing the color of all a specific color. An example being able to change all the color red on a page/throughout the notebook into blue. Having to lasso colors to change it can be a slow process, so it would be nice if we could do it with a few clicks.

  18. This feature would add automatic page numbering to documents. This feature will be enabled in the document settings and and exporting the document in any kind of way would keep the page numbers, unless disabled in export options. Everyone I ask is annoyed, that something like this doesn't exist, so adding this feature might actually increase ratings. I hope you add this feature because I really need it. Thanks in advance!

    Edit: The user should be able select where the page numbering should start (For Example: The page numbered first can actually be the third page)

  19. I'm aware I can resize/rotate my handwriting already, but, it doesn't have an option not to keep the aspect ratio. Sometimes I want to squish my handwriting a little to make it thinner inside a box.

    This option I've only seen it with Elements, but even then it's a Click/DeSelect/Hold/Click again and THEN editing. It's clunky. I think this also needs to be streamlined if added for handwriting. Not a fan of Rotate/Resize being the same handle either. It makes me make a selection bigger or smaller when trying to rotate.

  20. It’s amazing there is so few languages that can be recognized. It has been a known issue for years, and that’s why other apps or even platforms is moving up so fast ( Nebo as an app, or Supernote/Boox as e writers).
