  1. I recently switched from Notability to Goodnotes, I enjoy this app but I found the centering tool to be very helpful on Notability. I like my notes to be as clean as possible so I’d greatly appreciate it if some type of action was to be done for this to happen!

  3. 希望大綱與縮圖右上角可以新增一個圖釘📌,點了就可以讓所看到的縮圖大綱進度,跟著目前操作的頁面跑,不用每次都從頭往下找,尤其是在瀏覽數百頁的資料時。

  4. As a university student who uses goodnotes for every class, I find myself frustrated at the fact that there is no subscript or superscript shortcut. Biology, chemistry, and math are all subjects that very often use these features. As a result, I often draw the subscript/superscript in after typing my note, however this tends to be very tedious and messy when there is a lot of them. It would be tremendously effective if Goodnotes had a shortcut much like Google Docs does, to insert subscripts and superscripts.

  5. Currently when you are highlighting or using the eraser , the tapes can not be toggled to be transparent and back again. You have to select the pen or tape tool to do that. It would be way easier if you could also toggle the tape on and off while using the highlighter and the eraser .please see if that could be done. Thanks.

  6. I wish the sidebar when looking at your documents, when using the iPad, could be permanently closed & only open when I decide to hit the icon. It’s really annoying when I open my app & this sidebar is taking up a quarter of my app, all my files shift when I close it.
    Don’t get me wrong it’ll stay closed for a while, but if I don’t use the app for a little bit & go back in, the sidebar is open again. This isn’t the worst thing, but when it does happen, it’s a neusance.

  8. Currently, it’s not possible to use the trackpad for actions like deleting notifications or navigating within study sets. For example, you cannot swipe between flashcards in study sets with the trackpad, which makes the navigation feel clunky and inconsistent. Adding trackpad support for these things would greatly improve the user experience both on iPadOS and macOS.

  9. I’d like to be able to write notes on a page, and then create hidden pages behind it to do examples or whatever, kind of like writing on the back of a page in a physical notebook. Something that’s not another separate page that i would see when scrolling through my notes but if i wanted to see examples related to my notes on a specific page, or more inessential notes related to a specific topic, they would be attached to that page or “behind” it. This would be most useful in pdfs and math related subjects.

  10. I’d like to be able to view multiple pages side by side, for example to compare 2 pages, or have refer back to one specific page while writing on a different one. I also wish that when zooming out i can position the page anywhere on my screen; right now its only in the center and when I’m taking notes on a video for example, it would be useful to still have the whole page available for writing instead of part of it behind the video.

  11. it would be great if you could add this feature on the next update. Selecting multiple pages at once to delete highlighted or handwritten notes separately. I have multiple documents that I’ve highlighted and sometimes I would like to just delete the highlighted sections but then it would delete my pen notes and it’s tedious to use the erase for just highlights

  12. Tabs should have folder capabilities. When you tap on the tab there should a way you can embed multiple notes into one tab

  13. When using the trackpad to scroll in GoodNotes on Mac, there seems to be a delay at the start. The scroll doesn’t begin immediately, and it feels like I have to move my finger a certain distance before the scrolling actually starts.

  14. I'd love to have the option to toggle off the pop up window when clicking on hyperlinks leading out of GoodNotes. It would improve my workflow so much.

  15. Please add the new math notes feature to Goodnotes when the ipados18 will be released. It would be a very helpful feature.

  16. Although the full page typing feature (see image below) is useful, it only supports the default Arial font currently. Please can GoodNotes allow users to change fonts for the full page typing feature?

  17. i use good notes on my windows laptop and can't find a way to select a few pages only from a notebook, i also think there should be a way to export only a part of the document not the whole file

  20. 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…
