  2. It would be great to have an improved AI Math Assistant in GoodNotes 6 that can check every handwritten calculation in every handwritten notepage with handwritten math calculations you write for mistakes. It should be able to verify every equation and calculation and, if you make a mistake, offer a step-by-step solution for correcting it.

  3. A new Pencil option in the bar, similar to Apple’s Image Wand, that can transform a quickly drawn sketch into a beautifully generated picture if you circle around the sketch.”

  4. I would love a way to shift everything below a certain point down. Right now, I have to do a thousand lassos, or just erase and rewrite with the extra stuff in super tiny handwriting.
    I’d like to draw a line with the lasso and have everything move down some set amount of space (width of a line or whatever divider your page background is).

  5. Could we have the same typing feature on windows that we have on Mac/iPad?
    Currently when I type in a notebook I have to use a text box and text does not snap to the lines on my page (on windows) like it does on Mac or iPad.

    This would truly revolutionise Goodnotes for a lot of windows users.

  6. Unter der Funktion Tastatur können durch Tabulatoren verschiedene Aufzählungszeichen je nach Ebene benutzt werden. Es wäre schön, wenn diese Funktion auch in den Textfeldern verfügbar wäre.

  7. Wenn zum Schreiben bzw. Tippen in GoodNotes die Textfelder verwendet werden ist es möglich, zwischen verschiedenen Schriftarten zu wählen. Verwendet man hingegen die Funktion Tastatur, ist dies nicht möglich. Es wäre schön, auch hier verschiedene Schriftarten zur Verfügung zu haben.

  8. I noticed that my iPad battery gets drained very quickly when I use Goodnotes. It would be great if the Goodnotes team could introduce the features of "Battery saver mode" and "Performance mode" so that it won't consume a lot of battery when I don't need peak performance.

    Also, it would be even great to have to GoodNotes team decrease the overall battery consumption of app without introducing those 2 features :)

  10. I would like there to be a text recognition function (OCR) inside Goodnotes 6 so that it is possible to search for paragraphs of text in the various documents by writing certain words in the search bar, even if the PDF I am searching for is in non-editable image format (a bit like what is done with the iPhone gallery app)

    Also a function to convert the texts of non-editable PDFs into copyable and editable text but at the same time having careful attention to not modify the layout of the page, such as PDF X-CHANGE FOR Windows

  11. Please provide support so that the contents of the sticker memo can also be searched. I tried several tests, but I had the problem of not being able to find important information because the contents of the sticker memo were not searchable. thank you

  12. When going into "Practice" mode I'd like the ability to change the orientation of the cards. I want to be able for it to show me the answer first and then the queston. like how you can if you had "real flash cards" and just studying from the other side.

  13. I love using the study sets to learn for my exams, but sometimes, especially in longer answers it would be nice to highlight certain words within the answer. Generally the study set option is lacking some features like markers, different color options for the text, a better way to edit a card while learning and also making groups so certain cards will be more likely to be asked together, instead of "random" when learning in the smart card setting.

  14. While I enjoy writing with my Apple Pencil, I often use the writing tool and have encountered several frustrating issues:

    Text Alignment Issues: Copying text from a website or Word does not align properly in GN, requiring manual adjustments to font and spacing.
    Text Formatting Bug: When a page is nearly full, adding more text sometimes causes existing text to distort, merging words unexpectedly.
    Limited Formatting Options: It would be helpful to have more features, such as Greek letters, mathematical symbols, and the ability to add square roots.

  15. Would be so useful if I could sort the tabs in the navigation bar by recently edited or recently viewed and not by when it was first opened.

    Having it locked to sort for when the page was first opened make the tab bar on the top completely useless. I would rather go to home, and find the page, then scroll aimlessly through 25 tabs to find a note I had edited moments ago.

  16. Many college students are recommended to buy iPad 10th generation due to its ability to write notes. However, while writing notes you may miss something, so we go to the transcription bar but nothing is transcribing while we record the lecture. The transcription with audio upgrade should be added to the iPad 10th generation model due to the wide population usage of the app on that specific version of the iPad.

  17. It would be great do get an option to disable the Math Assist AI feature separatly by AppConfig from within an MDM.
    The Goodnotes App is used more often in schools, so the admin need the choice to enable or disable this powerful AI tool.

  19. Do you think possible to add new feature to create "flashCard on the fly" inside document creation ?

    My idea is to have new tool/feature to convert part of document to become flash card attached to document.

    With this, no need to switch between document and flash card area.
    => "just", we determine part of document to become flash card element (link, ...) ;-)

    Thanks a lot for this tool ;-)

So can you make all the files in goodnotes online and using the internet to edit and let user control which note can be used offline like google drive. I have slides which is easily used with the Internet and some books is too heavy so i want to download it and use offline
