  2. I would really like to be able to delete notebooks when they are open, rather than having to go back to the document menu view. I often have many notebook tabs open and find that some are not needed anymore. It would be more efficient if I could delete those notebooks directly, rather than having to first locate where they are stored.

  4. -be able to move the toolbar to the bottom of the screen without moving the navigation bar.
    -to be able to move things around on the screen based on the document that I am editing.
    -be able to choose how much the zoom window moves for auto-advance because I always have to move it anyway since it doesn't follow the lines on the lined template

    -For example, we can move the toolbar to the bottom of the screen, but that changes the zoom editing to be at the top of the screen and the document at the bottom. I want…

  5. 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).

  6. It would be great if we can select formats such as images, text, links, when pasteboard has multiple format of items.

  7. Since the external display support has been published for the newer Ipad pro models, it would be great to have usage of it. For now it always opens the good notes file in full screen on your external monitor when you try to open it on your ipad to work on a note. Fixing that would be a great improvement for the workflow with external monitors.

  8. Have the option to zoom in the collections to verify the stickers instead of posting each one to find the one that I'm looking. It would be great if can be in the Mac app and iPad app.

  9. Text Box for MacOS another fix.

    The mouse coursor on MacOS doesn't change when hovering over the dot to resize the text box. So you have no indication if you are resizing or not. it continues to show the insert text cursor.

  10. I use outlines a lot, so it would be great if they were more easily accessed on the top left corner. Something like if we could create the option into a shortcut for either Thumbnail/Favorites/Outlines depending on what we need the most at the moment just like with the pen and eraser tool. Also would be great if the option didn't open a pop up and instead a side panel.

    A little nitpicky, but would be super helpful and eliminate my use of the documents app and allow me to entirely make the switch to goodnotes for all studying purposes…

  11. This was previously possible and I’d love to see it return- the ability to single tap or double tap on a sticker and write without the sticker option for copying and pasting activating especially if text box is deselected in lasso tool.

  12. I hope that double-clicking can allow users to set a third zoom size, not just the minimum zoom and zoom in to the page size, but also the maximum visible block zoom, you can refer to Apple books, their double-click zoom is what I want, so that it can make People who write on books get more room to mark their handwriting

  14. I have had a problem for a couple of months. I use Good notes for tutoring, and I use the highlighter or drawing features a lot on imported text documents. When my students try to draw or highlight, "the comment" option frequently appears. It is very sensitive if they hold down the key for too long. This is annoying and frustrating for them. How can I turn off the comment feature?

  17. the textbox tool is broken.
    when using the text box and tapping the screen (even if using the on-screen keyboard) the textbox will undo ( and it won't be reversible ) so you will need to retype everything. furthermore, it keeps this weird overlay of way should have happened if it would work correctly or something that should have been deleted but for some reason stays. and when switching pages and then editing a textbox you will get "teleported" into a random previewed page. and if the pages are similar you might rune some notes.

  18. Beim arbeiten in der Schule habe ich bemerkt, dass es bei ihrer tollen App einen Verbesserungsvorschlag meinerseits gibt.
    Beim Scrollen (horizontal) wäre es gut, wenn sich der eingezoomte sichtbereich beim Scrollen auf eine andere Seite nicht nach oben verschieben würde.

  19. Sometimes undo button seems to be a little far and multiple undos are required in order to get the perfect writing. If options for double tap on apple pencil were given, it would be a good addition. Also a set of favourite tools like collanotes or notability would be required. Never the less, Goodnotes is the best, just lacking a few features to ultra perfection!
