  1. Right now, I can only see 1 page at a time if I zoom all the way out. Can we have extended zoom so we can see 2+ pages at a time? On a larger screen, it'll make better use of the space. As of now, I just get a big blown up view of a single page.

  2. It would be a great idea to implement a Marketplace with in app purchases like in Notability, that way everyody could customize goodnotes for his own use of the app. I think that would solve many common requests, for example the need of more pens and stylus, graphics tools or even math recognizing features.

  5. It would be nice if the zoom window can be put on the left side(for left handers) or right side of the screen on landscape mode instead of on the bottom.

  7. On IPad Pro, sometime the selection made with the pencil can be deleted using the Delete key on the Magic Keyboard, some other times it won’t work for no reason. Would be nice to make it work all the time.

  9. Sometimes when I read and take notes on lecture PowerPoint pdf on GoodNotes, I feel like the pages display are too big (I used an iPad Pro) esp when the content on the slides is not very compact. So I wonder if it’s possible to set how the pdf to be displayed, like for horizontal it can be set to 2x2, 3x2. Or for vertical, it can be set to 2x4, 2x6, or even 3x4 etc instead? To be able to view more pages at a glimpse like the outlines and also able to actually read the content would be…

  12. Please provide a way to decrease the size of the PDF's. I mark student work all the time sent to me from iOS devices - the only ones that I can not seem to decrease the size of using every technique in my arsenal are ones from GOODNOTES - inside I am saying, "BADNOTES, BADNOTES" - please fix this - thanks. For example the builtin DOC scanner in the iOS notes creates PDF's that are a very reasonable size. Thanks

  14. So the idea
    Is if you a pdf
    With an image
    You have a the new
    Flash card tool option
    You can select a text
    To make it a close or flash card
    Or an image to occlude it
    Now once that is done

    Just double tap the icon on tool bar to enter into flash card mode

    Once you revised your answer

    Move on to another topic

    I have loads of idea
    And would love to work on your team

    I am a surgeon from India
    I don’t need money or anything of sorts just collaborate and some shoutouts

  15. Sehr sinnvoll wäre für mich, wenn ich ein Kamera-Fenster aufziehen könnte, in dem das Kamera-Livebild gezeigt wird. Sehr sinnvoll in der Schule, wenn etwas demonstriert werden soll und gleichzeitig wichtige Inhalte zu sehen sein sollen.

  16. It would be amazing if there was a setting where I could default a font and as I start handwriting out notes, it automatically starts to change the words to text, sort of like iPads new "scribble" feature.

  17. When I scan a multi-page document through GoodNotes or import a scanned document, the saved quality is not sufficient, so that - in contrast to Notify - not all text passages are found when searching.

    This is clear if you look at the file sizes between Notify and GoodNotes during the backup.
