  1. By using finger and holding, it should be possible to move pictures and photos from one page to the next rather than copy, insert on new page, delete on old. That is really awkward.

  2. About once a year I waste half an hour trying to see if I can save preset text colors the same way I can save custom pen colors. Because the interface is identical I perhaps unfairly assume this will involve much the same code and would therefore be an easy fix. I therefore keep thinking a fix would be right around the corner. At this point, I would be better served by having you come out and say that you are never going to get around to it , so I can spend my time jury-rigging a work around. Don’t…

  5. Hi,

    For me it would be very useful if I could sort a documents pages in thumbnail mode by creation date and date of last modification.

    Especially in larger documents it's hard to find the side where I have changed something yesterday...

  6. Pin notes in a bar like tabs in browser. You won't close them by mistyping.

    I have "theese" notes that I don't need to close like: to-do list or my everyday notebook with some notes. It will be better to have options for pin important notes in the bar

  7. When taking a screenshot with the lasso tool, give the option to create an element directly, instead of having to save the image in the camera roll and then import it back.

  8. First , I chooses GoodNotes but when i when I know the two things about Noteshelf is that-
    1) we can recor d and also import voice record from file and also we can manage on page where we need .
    2) and also individual file lock
    Really this attract me and I switched on Noteshelf..

    If GoodNotes also add this feature in his app then it will be great.

    Please review this feature, I also attached this in comments
    Please find it

  9. We need to be able to have continuous scrolling in this app. And I get super annoyed when I have to do 10 things to select and move text. It goes under the GoodNotes pages because they are hard page breaks. Please fix soon!!!

  10. Hello! As I use GoodNotes more and more to take notes and adnotate documents, I get a large volume of folders and notebooks that are a bit difficult to navigate through.

    It would be great to be able to archive old items, so that they do not show up in the document browser and they are compressed or even stored in the cloud only, so that they do not take up additional space.

  12. I sometimes would like to know the amount of documents in one folder. It would be great if the number of documents would stand underneath the documents in the folder or e.g. next to the date of creation before opening the folder.

  13. This app will automatically download all files every time. My iPad storage is full. I hope you can add a function like Apple Books to delete and download a single file.

  14. Use machine learning/AI to (optionally) record and catalog handwriting and be able to autocorrect handwritten text. Would be fantastic if it could also match sizes and styles of surrounding texts. After enough cataloging, it could even create a font with your handwriting.

  16. It has been long time since GoodNotes announced on Twitter that they are planning to bring the app on different platforms but there is no app for Windows and android after years.

    If you can’t sync to Windows and android using iCloud please use Google Drive or any other third-party cloud service and please bring app to Windows, android and Web. Microsoft has already achieved this way earlier and should not be difficult for you as well.

    Every time I brought up this issue, you guys give same reason that you are looking for good engineers, is it the case…

  18. It would be great if we could chose the format, which the scanned document should have. Those white bars are failing in its look. Another option would be to make a tool, you can crop your page with and where you can also chose a format. Please do this :)

  19. The writing experience needs a for-real chisel point, fountain pen look. The app Notesplus has a gorgeous one, but I had to give it up because GoodNotes is better in every other way. But man, I miss it. See examples uploaded...
