  1. One of the biggest drawbacks of the app is that my notebooks and folders are only able to be sorted alphabetically, by type, or by when I used them. This makes for a very unintuitive interface, as the order of documents often makes no sense. I think it would be relatively easy to add the option to just drag and drop folders/notebooks the way you would move apps on a home screen.

  2. Hola, actualmente solo podemos borrar las anotaciones, resaltados, dibujos, etc. que se realizan "sobre" un documento pdf, por lo que quisiera que se agregue la siguiente función, que no solo se pueda borrar lo que se escribe sobre el documento pdf, sino, que se pueda borrar partes del documento original, ejemplo; si tengo un documento pdf, unos ejercicios resueltos de matemáticas, sería interesante que en este caso se pueda borrar la parte desarrollada del ejercicio y dejar la pregunta para que después se podamos resolverlo, esta función la podemos apreciar en la app Homework Scanner-eliminar notas, entre muchas de sus…

  3. I would love if we had the option of paying let's say 1-2 dollars per month in exchange of getting access to a wild range of free stickers and marketplace items

  4. There's already been a highlight feature and a strikeout feature for selected texts on PDF files, so I wonder if you can implement applying tapes onto selected texts as an addition, since we have tape functions just on board.

  6. Right now if you directly type into your document, you are restricted to the style & format provided by Goodnotes, you can't find words or phrases using the search tool, and when typing too long or moving from different tabs it sorta sticks & won't allow you to type even though you can move & see the blinking text cursor. Additionally when the page overfills, it does not automatically continue to the next page and it instead keeps asking you to create each new page. Then when you want to shorten or lengthen pages, you have to individually copy and…

  7. Handwriting can sometimes be illegible when taking notes quickly, so adding this feature is extremely important for college students.

  8. Hi, it would be great if we were able to tell the number of pages in a document from the main home screen, rather than to enter each document to check it. Plus, at the same time, it would be great if we had the visibility of the number of notebooks in a folder.
    Thank you!

  9. Sometimes the answer on a study set is long, and there’s no way to highlight text of underline it in the answer. Being able to draw of highlight on top of the text as you would in a notebook would be much easier and neater!

  10. Add the option to have no language selected for text recognition so you won't get the red dots under your handwriting in your own language

  11. I have lots of textbooks that have page number's, but you cannot enter the page number and jump to it in goodnotes because of title pages, table of contents, etc. I just want to be allowed to set a page as page 1.

  12. We have been using a web app with zero functionality for almost 2 years now. Did you guys abandon us? We paid for this and still do. Why can't we have the real goodnotes? It's literally the goodnotes from wish .com right now. No stickers. No goodnotes files, different ui, everything is horrible. It can't even handle importing a .pdf without zooming weird. Why do you do this to us. It's so sad.

  13. Add the option to add a link to a recording to a page so that it’s easy to listen to recordings associated with certain notes.

  16. Like how we can create comments and collapse them, if we could place a sticky note and collapse it, I think this would be a great feature to expand note taking. Especially on things like PDFs that do not have a lot of room in the margins.

  17. Instead of copy paste can you please add a feature of just moving the clipped image from one app to another just like Samsung note features. It's amazing I want here too.

  18. I love this new feature added to GoodNotes 5. It can become better by:
    1. Syncing the page with the audio, which is by showing the number of the current page in which the recording is being played.
    2. Adding the ability to Rename the Audio Files.
    3. Adding the ability to export the Audio Files.
    4. Recording pixel by pixel which results in smoother writing when recording is replayed.

  19. In order to allow the use of Goodnotes company, we require to be able to apply certain security policies. This is done via MS Intune MAM, which require that the app is integrated with Intune SDK. I know this is a requirement at many large companies. The fact that this is not the case, excludes Goodnotes from a lot (!) of users.

    Please integrate Intune SDK to the source code, so that it can be included in our and several others app repository.

  20. The present linking process is time consuming…to make it easy my suggestion is while linking a page from one document (A) to another page (lets say page no-206 of document (B)) can u please allow us manually entering the page number instead of scrolling to the 206th page in document B….because it is too tedious.
