  1. There are quiet a lot of feature request regarding being able to export all Highligthed parts of an PDF. However for a start i think it would be beneficial if, you could filter the (miniature) pages in the content view to show Pages that has been Highligthed or written a note on.
    Kind off like the Bookedmarked tab shows only bookedmarked pages. For start it probably would be enough to show the entire page a Highligthed has been made. In a Perfect world (probably quiet challenging to archive) this could maybe work like the preview when searching for something in…

  2. It would be fantastic to display other Apps ( for Schoolbooks. Pdf. , etc. ) on a second screen and open a document in goodnotes to make notes.

    The normal iOS note does it in this way.
    Goodnotes directly switches to presenter Mode if i open a document and hides my digital Schoolbooks.

    Should be like shown on the picture.

    IPad make notes
    Second screen display something

  3. Basic functions for typed text (same as in OneNote) such as creating tables, lists, bulleted lists. These can also be created using keyboard shortcuts.

  4. I feel like it would be useful for an option to open a list view of all flashcards that have been made in each study set. A page where flashcards can be printed or viewed at all the same time.

  5. There is a blank space next to the color palette, so the palette isn’t showing as many colors as it could. The palette isn’t taking up all the space to the edge of the screen (see the screenshot).
    The size of the blank space seems to depend on how many tools you have on your toolbar but it is present even without editing the default tool order.
    I tried reinstalling the app - it was fixed for about a day and then the issue appeared again.
    I’m facing this issue on my 11” iPad Pro 2022, but also have seen…

  7. How can Goodnotes be integrated into the workflow of large enterprises, especially in project management and collaboration between teams? Is it possible to develop a feature that allows real-time progress tracking and document sharing, while ensuring high security and the ability to customize to the needs of each department in the enterprise?

  8. Please change the flash card mode so we can have both writing mode (that is the mode that doesn’t require the text button in drawing mode) and at the same time paint over what is written.

    It should be the same as the normal notebooks but in the flash card mode.

    Also, it should have templates too, so you can change your flash cards background to for example squared or dotted paper.

    The uploaded file shows the features a flash card should have, the same ones as the notebook.

  10. I LOVE this app. I use it daily and for so many things! It’s versatile, convenient, affordable, all the good things. One problem: I did the one-time purchase in 2023. Now, in 2025, I’d love to switch to the annual subscription so that I can access it on my PC as my projects have expanded. And I can’t. I’d have to delete my account, lose all of my stuff, and then re-enroll. Or find a way to back up all of my stuff (as PDFs, losing hyperlinks and all of the Goodnotes-ey features on them), delete my account, and re-enroll.…

  12. Can you please allow the search function to work with notes written with the pencil tool? I see the search function works for the pen, but I prefer the feel of the pencil when taking notes. Thank you.

  14. There are many add ons in the marketplace like planners for example that we’d have to pay for to access.

    There should ideally be an option to try them out for a short period of time before buying. It’s difficult to determine which planner option would be bested based on the screenshots shown under each in the marketplace.

    The last thing anyone wants is to spend €9.99 on a planner that doesn’t suit your needs.

  16. Is it possible to expand the Goodnotes cloud service to all users?
    I read the page ( Goodnotes Cloud on IOS Pilot Program).On this page, the Cloud is only eligible for Yearly plan members...That is pretty sad 😢 What I am concerned about is I already paid for other cloud services. For iCloud,I won't pay a subscription.

    Meanwhile, I saw there may be invitations to upgrade iCloud to goodnotes cloud...hope that I am not misunderstanding, cause two statements are a bit contradict.

    If this advice will be accepted in the future, It is convenience. Thank you.

  18. i use text boxes for my planner, because i don’t particularly like my handwriting. i use the scribble function with my apple pencil, but when it converts my writing to text, it automatically capitalizes the first letter. i have this feature turned off in my settings, and i wish it transferred over into the app. i just feel like it looks more natural that way!

  19. What I take notes for I would like to listen to the recording multiple times to learn. To have a loop feature would be great to be able to loop the whole recording to play over and over, or ideally to choose to loop the whole recording or each piece individually for notes with multiple recordings.

  20. I heard that GoodNotes 6 allows collaborative editing of PDFs. After sharing a single PDF with each other, is it possible for both parties to write on the PDF in real-time?
