  1. An internet hyperlink is really essential. I'm surprised why this has not been done yet. I'm happy to extra for this, if needed.

  3. The printed page has no margin for binding.
    Please add margins. Best, mirror margins for front/back print

    Printing, two GoodNotes pages fit well in one A-size or A4-size sheet.
    Please include the option of margins for this, with front/back option
    (4 GoodNotes pages in a front/back physical sheet)

  4. If you reach the end of the paper it is uncomfortable to write. Instead of creating a new page by switching to the next side, you can offer the possibility for continuous scrolling downwards.

  6. After the new tape inclusion, it would be nice to have a button to hide all tapes again or to show the content below the tapes at the same time.

  7. Hi, my main language is Slovak and I have been very excited to download your app and use it on my university lessons that start in September. I bought an iPad and Apple pencil and I am trying to learn to write notes on GOODNOTES. However when i am converting my writing into text, it keeps correcting my words into many different languages or wrong words and it is so annoying and frustrating. Not only it makes me mad but I truly will not be able to fix it constantly on my lessons. For my school, I will need to…

  8. These three things are much needed
    Auto Detection of Arrows is very helpful in many cases
    Dotted Lines/Dashed Lines are very necessary in Making Diagrams especially in mathematics and physics
    Duplicate feels more easy than copy and pasting the thing, adding duplicate with copy will save time
    Inverting PDF too seems necessary sometimes

    Only because of these 4 functions I have to sometime switch to notability and it does not feel good cause I have paid for GoodNotes

  9. With the most recent update, microphone access knocked the "Add to Favorites" button out of the main toolbar. I'm regularly adding pages to favorites as part of long documents that I mark up by hand, which I then use to pull only the favorite pages out of the document and send to a colleague quickly; now the button requires 3+ clicks to get to. I'm not going to use the microphone. At least make it the user's option to move around the icons that are featured in the main toolbar.

  12. It would be great if you could save more than three colours for pen/highlighter. The space in the top right corner would be enough to save 5 colours. Would really help folks who study with highlighting in (many) different colours

  14. Flashcards are a great way to learn.
    But when studying topics that are more complicated than vocabulary it would be very helpful to be able to write down the answer before checking if it was correct. (For example mathematical derivations). Writing the answer also helps with learning.

    My idea is that the flashcard screen shows two flashcards: One with the question (like it already does) and one, that is blank. You can write down your answer in the blank flashcard using the Apple Pencil. When clicking the flashcard with the question it flips over and shows the correct answer, so…

  15. It would be great to have an edit opportunity while studying flash cards.
    Searching the current flash card in large notebooks to edit small mistakes is time consuming.

  16. In many cases when using the text box option I can adjust the line spacing and font size but the more I type the less the text actually stays on the lines of the page. So far, the only way to deal with this issue is to create multiple text boxes when the text starts to drift away from the lines. In most cases, I like to text for the full length of the page and it's difficult when even the line spacing doesn't actually stay consistent.

  17. The current highlight tool adjusts its position based on how user draws the line. However, lines drawn manually may not perfectly align with text from the PDF file, so the inconsistent gaps between different highlights may look awkward and ugly.

  18. I feel like it would be really nice if we could have a couple more customizations for the pen? Especially the amount of streamline, and also potentially the pressure sensitivity?

  19. It is really upsetting that I cant drag and drop any image or text onto the next page. It takes so much time and effort to copy paste the text and then go to the next page and insert and then go back to the previous page to delete the text.
    This would increase everybody‘s workflow a lot!

  20. Renently, notability can draw a curve line.

    Need to improve pen tool to draw a curve line - also arrow line

    As a math teacher and 5-year goodnote user, need to draw a cartesian coordinate plane, or quadratic&cubic&quartic function.

    Please make four-dotted line -like vectornator or Illustrator- to draw that curve! Before I change to Notability!
