  1. Change color of converted math formula

    The experimental math conversion tool for Goodnotes6 is fairly good. It can convert most of 1-liner math handwriting satisfactory!
    However, it seems that the color of produced math formula is black only and can't be changed.
    Please make it possible to change color of the produced formulas, like other objects such as lines and typed texts. Assuming LaTeX as the conversion backend, it shouldn't be very difficult to make it by inserting a preamble \color{colorname} just before the math script.

  2. Dictionary or Translator Request

    For requesting dictionary or translator, other apps such as Book in all iOS can do touch or tap in PDF file so I can read and take note in PDF file that is academic paper for taking some importance note like unknown word's for better understanding when I comeback to read.

    I feel a bit sad when my GoodNote cannot do like that. However, I don’t sure it’s hard or not if developer will add dictionary or translator into GoodNote by default.

  4. customize palette

    It would be nice to be able to customize the palette that appears with the squeeze gesture on apple pencil pro. For example, I would like to add "redo" and remove tools I never use so that others that I do are more easily accessible.

  5. More options for learning study stets

    Study sets are great and i love this feature very much but i think some additional improvements will make it extremely useful and great.
    For example how much I remember the cards, if there is multiple option as in Anki such as easy, good, hard & again rather than know it or not will improve smart learn and add filter cards queue, some cards i forget it at all while others i just forget a little bit of it so the only two option make them equal.

    Although if there is an option for backward of cards as I accidentally…

  6. Academic Assignment Writing

    Hi, I am a student and recently passed my exams with good grades. If you want to know the reason behind this success, I would like to tell you that I was facing difficulty with my assignments. My friend suggested trying https://www.ukassignmenthelp.uk, and I found it really helpful. I want to share this because as a student, it's very difficult to complete assignments on time, and I've seen many others in this forum seeking services like this

  7. More customisation for folders

    The current colours for folders are extremely limited. I use Goodnotes for many different things, and I am having to repeat folder colours which makes it hard to quickly find things I need. I think it would be useful to rather have a colour wheel or similar option, or even a way to add a photo as the folder cover rather than just a small generic icon which is hard to see.

  8. Study set tags

    I’d like for there to be a way to “tag” cards within individual study sets a variety of colors. For example, if I have cards related to biology, I can tag them “green” and cards related to math can be “red”. When I go to study all of my cards, I want to be able to customize how many of each “tag” I want in my study session. For example, maybe I want to have a study session that’s mostly Biology with some Math as well. I would customize that I want 15 “green” cards and 5 “red” cards in…

  9. [Full page Typing, Style & Formatting] Text formatting and preference for styling initial paragraphs

    Text formatting

    • (Some) Markdown support -- including the extended syntax
      • TeX and LaTeX support (like $\TeX or \LaTeX$)
      • Inline code and code blocks -- I'm not expecting syntax highlighting due to security reasons
      • Links
      • Footnotes [^*]

    Styling initial paragraphs

    Most of the time, I style the first sentence of my document as Paragraph, not as Heading.

    With the current unresponsive UI when using on macOS, I have to click Style & Formatting and change the style every single time. It would be great if the app could let me set my styling preference for new documents.

  11. Switching between sets of color palettes

    I think it would be a nice idea if I could create a color palette and then save it. Like, if I make a palette that's full of pastels and another that's darker colors, I could create a "pastel palette" and a "dark palette." That way, if I find myself preferring the dark palette for what I'm doing but pastels for another project, I could easily switch between the two without having to go through and change everything again.

  12. horizontal scroll lock

    I would like to be able to lock my horizontal position as I scroll vertically along a page. If I am trying to edit a document and zoom in very close to a blank section, it is difficult to determine whether my page is moving horizontally during my vertical scrolls. A lock button to prevent horizontal scrolling or vertical scrolling in some applications of goodnotes would be helpful in having peace of mind while scrolling in a relatively blank area of a document.

  14. Add some Indian languages - Hindi, Sanskrit, Telugu, Tamil, Bangla; integration with google translate may help since it has many lanuguages.

    The app is very useful, but lack of support to various languages will limit it's universality. Everybody is familiar with one language, but when it comes to another language which they are less familiar with, you always wish you could scribble a few letters and the AI would get the rest of the word. Would like to see support in your app for Hindi, Bangla, Telugu, Sanskrit - languges spoken by millions of people (total 1.5 billion!)

  15. Ruler

    It's wonderful that there's now a ruler in GoodNotes. For math classes, it would be great if the grid paper aligned with it had a box width of 0.5 cm, and users wouldn't have to create this paper background themselves.

  16. Goodnotes 6 Heats up my device A LOT

    Hi! I’ve been enjoying Goodnotes 6 a lot but I realised that it heats up a lot (Like A LOT) when using it and I use it on ipad. (Using it on ipad means I have to write and my hand gets uncomfortable and kinda red) I hope there could be a feature, like make it run smoother but emit less heat. Thanks!

  18. search flash cards

    Why is there no way to search for words in flashcards just like in the notebooks?
    Also, the favorite feature for flashcards would also be really helpful.
    All in all, i just want the same features for flash cards that i have for notebooks.
    Thank You

  19. moving items across pages

    Allow for selected items to be moved across pages for a better workflow.
    this saves time from not having to copy-paste items instead.

    basically making it so multiple pages can be treated as one:
    lasso two pages at once, move items across two pages, right on two pages with a single line, etc.

  20. Enable ability to export study sets to excel

    It would be helpful so that we can create additional study sets easier as I have found excel is the best way to input info into study sets but without the ability to merge sets at this time.
