  1. バックアップするデータの指定

    現状、iCloudバックアップはGoodNotes5に保存している全てのデータを自動でCloudにアップロードして他のデバイスでファイルに加えた変更が反映されるようになっているがデバイスごとの容量の違いから読み込めないファイルが発生してしまい容量の小さい方のデバイスでiCloudバックアップをオンにできない状況が発生しています。

    例えば自分はiPad Pro(512Gb)とiPad mini(64Gb)を使っています。iPad Pro内のGoodNotes5に保存したデータが100Gbを超えており全てiCloudにアップロードしています。しかしiPadminiの容量が足りないためにiPadmini内のGoodNotes5のiCloudバックアップをオンにできない状況です。

    この解決策としてGoodNotes5内の全てのファイルをiCloudにアップロードする必要はないため、アップロードするファイルを選択して使えるようにできたらより便利になると思います。
    ご検討のほどよろしくお願いします。

  2. Scrolling in IPad Pro Magic Keypad Track?

    I cannot scroll the IPad Pro up and down when using Apple Magic KeyBoard like I use in the Notability. It is really inconvenient when reading the documents

  4. UNABLE TO EXCLUDE FILES FROM BACKUP

    Not a suggestion, but complaint. Unable to set a file name to exclude from the auto-backup. I can't click on the section, and there is no where for me to set a file name to exclude.

  6. Zoom window blue area after return size

    The Zoom window is too small when it moves to the next line. If you want to indent, it's really annoying to have to advance it to get a full sized window.

  7. Improve the use of keyboard shortcuts

    Match shortcuts with keys as in a computer. Moreover, when you go to the next page with the keyboard, the page advances but not the page counter and you cannot bookmark that page correctly, for example.

  8. More Shortcuts

    There should be shortcuts for
    - document search
    - search all files
    - delete page
    - mark/unmark page
    - close current file
    - switch between edit and view mode
    - cmd + z / cmd + shift + z for undo and redo

    I think there can not be to many shortcuts, as they are invisible to everyone not using them. Add your ideas...

  9. Page position

    I was wondering if you can add a feature?

    I would love it if you could make it that you can scroll the page you are working on up the screen further than just to the bottom of the screen. What I mean by this is rather than have the bottom of the page you are writing on stay at the bottom of the screen, it would be great if you could actually scroll the page up so the bottom of the page you are writing on is actually half way up the screen so you can still rest your…

  11. Search PDF Form Fields

    Search will find text on a PDF, but NOT in the form fields of that PDF - though the contents of the form fields is displayed. I work with a lot of fillable PDF's and this is a significant deficiency.

  13. Search for a string within text

    I tried searching for (as a specific example) “3919” (without quotes) when looking for a note I had hand written with the text “003919” (again without quotes).

    Search didn’t find it until I searched very specifically for “0039” (no quotes).

    It would be great if you could enable search of a string within words / text.

    Incidentally, searching “003919” also gave zero results.

  14. Set default to “Last Page” for importing

    I would like to be able to set the default option when importing to GoodNotes to be “Last Page” rather than “After” to prevent accidentally inserting large documents to the middle of other large documents.

  16. annotate pdf without importing into goodnotes

    Often times I annotate pdf in dropbox/Google Drive. I'd like to use goodnotes a PDF annotation tool rather than use PDF expert because I like the UI. I don't want to have to import PDFs directly into goodnotes and then export it.

  17. Handwritten formula conversion

    Make a tool that converts the handwritten mathematical symbols or equations into formatted equations directly into the notebook, just like the "Ink equation" function in microsoft word for inserting formula.

  18. Allow option to use PDFDisplayMode: twoup

    https://developer.apple.com/documentation/pdfkit/pdfdisplaymode/twoup

    Apple's PDFKit allows to show two pages of a PDF side by side. PSPDFKIT (which is what Good Notes 5 uses) should support the same option.

    I'm currently using the iPad 12.9 and typically have it in the horizontal orientation and there's soooo much wasted screen real estate. When making notes on a book or a large report, it's helpful to have more context on what is before and after the content. PDF books are often typeset such that content being read on a left hand side has images or quotes from the right hand side, and context is…

  19. Option to select and keep 3 most used fonts on the top of the Font List.

    Option to select the 3 most used fonts by the user on the top of the font list. At present, I have to scan the whole list to select the desired font if I am inserting text frequently.
