  1. After updating the feature for editing stickers is gone. It used to be able to lengthen/ widen the stickers given, now I can only enlarge the whole thing and it does not fit with my notes from time to time.
    there's also issues with the element function, sometimes after deleting one and adding another the previous one would pop up and I cant select to delete it again :/.
    It would be good to have a library of stickers or list of our stickers so we can add in or remove them by group. Able to change the colours of…

  3. Animal/veterinary science does not fit within the biology or medicine categories as it is a separate field entirely. Would be nice to have a specific displine category to upload my notes to and would make it easier for others in this field to find and contribute notes.

  5. I would like to have GoodNotes keep the page-zoom as I had when I changed from GoodNotes to another app on my Ipad Pro. Now the page will zoom out again if I switch from GoodNotes to another app and back. Or if I switch between 2 GoodNotes windows

  6. Add a button allowing the users to turn off the shortcut of drag to duplicate the text box function. As most of the time I want to drag the text box elsewhere, but it keeps duplicating. It can be resolved by tapping on the text box instead of holding it if you are typing with the keyboard on the screen. But if you are connected to a hardware keyboard, trackpad or mouse, it will long hold automatically instead of tapping when trying to move the text box.

  11. TL;DR: Sometimes when bulk-importing, duplicates might be accidentally imported. Catch these potential duplicates and query if we still want to import.

    When performing bulk imports, I occasionally have duplicates present (due to the way my main import source structures PDFs). This ultimately means that what I think might be a unique file actually already exists in GoodNotes. Ideally, this could work at the PDF level, but may only be easily-done on a fuzzy-name basis.

    e.g. say the file I'm importing has the name "Mind Games 40c0de54-120f-0d77-9ae5-e96083fb1f9b" – while the UUID present (the 40c0de54-120f-0d77-9ae5-e96083fb1f9b) is very likely to be unique, I…

  12. I want GoodNotes to adapt to iOS and iPad OS by pressing the long scroll bar. As shown in the photo. In other Apps, I can press the scroll bar for quick scroll, but it is invalid in GoodNotes!
    I'm quite surprised that this iOS system feature has been two years since iOS 13. GoodNotes is still not adapted, which has brought a lot of trouble to use. I hope it can be adapted as soon as possible, and the experience brought by a little improvement is huge! Thank you to GoodNotes team!
    希望GoodNotes适配iOS和iPad OS的长按滚动条进行滚动。如照片所示。在别的App中,我可以长按滚动条进行快速活动,而在GoodNotes中是无效的!我是挺惊讶的,这个iOS系统特性自iOS 13以来已经两年了,GoodNotes还是没有适配,给使用带来了不少麻烦。希望早日适配,一点点小改进带来的体验提升巨大!感激开发团队!

  15. Two multi line text boxes with different blank lines and same row spacing cannot be aligned.

    what’s more, could you add the function to set the exact number on row spacing adjusting? it’s too cumbersome to tap the “+” again and again

  16. Set up automatic backup of Baidu network disk for Chinese users, because most Chinese users do not use Google drive. But we have great demands for automatic backup, equipment coordination, and data transfer and sharing. I sincerely hope that you can adopt this suggestion, thank you.

    1. For GoodNotes, I think it would be better if you change the app price into free, because some users like me who doesn’t buy any apps, just in case I don’t use it anymore, might really need GoodNotes, but unable to buy.

    2. Maybe GoodNotes can have an audio recording, similar like Notability. Since more users are using GoodNotes, it would be better if there is an audio recording function.

  18. The way undo has to be doubled tapped EACH time is inconvenient and sometimes undos too much because the system recognizes too many double taps or the timing of the app recognizing each double tap after another is not accurate, leading to triple taps or two double taps to get ONE undo. I just end up using the toolbar. Please review experience for procreates multiple undo ux&ui because 1. Screen doesn't jump and 2. I only have to tap once after the first tap recognition.
    Make it recognize the two fingers and make it single tap please...way more convenient!

    Same…
