  2. The toolbar should be small or flexible enough to allow a smaller windows for the split view in macOS. At the moment GoodNotes uses almost 2/3 of the screen, in previous versions with the hidden toolbar you could size the window freely.

  4. I need to grade term papers and would love to simply sync (or drag and drop in the GoodNotes desktop app) a folder with PDFs and export all of them in one step when I am finished.

  5. Good Notes is perfect for me as a site manager to take plans to the construction site. What I miss very much is a tool to measure. I would like to measure it out of a plan.
    --> A measuring function!

  6. Wacom stylus support for Goodnotes 5? Very much needed. Since goodnotes 5 is supported by iPad prior to 6 and iPad Pro's it's the only way

  7. Remember the tool I last used in that specific document.
    E.g one document where the highlighter is selected and the other document keeps the pen selected, so the selection isn‘t app wide

  8. My favourite feature from GoodNotes 4 (and the reason why I use GoodNotes more than Notability) was the ability to create my own document outline by adding named bookmarks.

    Please bring back that feature!

  9. The writing area in GN5 is actually reduced with respect to 4. I spend 100% of my time writing notes in the same colour, so the always present toolbar is a waste of space. I would like a toolbar which contracts when not used and expands when touched, something like the menubar in OSX. More writing area! At least, make the toolbar more compact

  15. It’s absolutely natural to scroll. For a continuous and lengthy content, like an article or a tutorial note or a book, scrolling provides even better usability than slicing up the text to several separate screens or pages.

  17. Make the new gesture control optional (so we can turn it off, if we don't use it and don't want to risk using it by mistake).

  19. Set Text writing with Keyboard as default or make it so that you can write exactly on the lines of the Paper.
