  1. Hi, I would love to see this update soon. No one is doing it and I think it would set you apart from the rest.

    We all use reminders every day for certain tasks, emails and or events. This is so common. But, when I am writing notes using my iPad I may have something in particular I'd like to come back too. How ever having to find it again, or create an anchor or something is a bit difficult at times to do on the fly.

    So, what would be awesome is this. Perhaps the lasso tool has an…

  2. I use Preview on OS X and highlighting is a pleasure on it because you can just select the text you want to highlight in the PDF by clicking and dragging (like you normally select text in a computer).

    Similarly, it will be extremely useful for me if the highlighter tool automatically snapped to the text in the document instead of working like a sort of painting tool that draws in a straight line above the text.

  3. By integrating the search in spotlight, I can search for a word in all my files. For example for school I wanna know something about what I wrote down, but I don’t know anymore if I typed in GoodNotes or pages, I can find it within one search.

  4. Ich liebe diese App und benutze sie täglich in der Uni!
    Eine Funktion, die mir fehlt ist, dass man in ein vorhandenes Dokument (in meinem Falle das vorlesungsskript) Hilfslinien oder ein raster einfügen kann. So könnte man ordentlich und gerade mitschreiben und wenn man fertig ist die Hilfslinien einfach wieder ausblenden. Das wäre großartig!

  7. Have the option to enable/disable guidelines (lines and/or gridlines), while I'm writing on a template, that way I can write on a "straight line" in a blank template for example.

  8. When choosing a preset, it would be useful if presets remembered what thickness you liked for that pen and if you had shape recognition enabled.
    Use case: I'm studying on a PDF book; to underline and take notes I'm using:
    - A yellow marker with shape recognition enabled to draw a perfect line on the text
    - A red thick pen with shape recognition enabled to further underline
    - A black thin pen and a red thin pen without shape recognition to write notes.

    With the current implementation, I have to choose the color, then choose the thickness, then enable…

  9. I use Goodnotes for study, and i add bookmarks. It would be great to be able to reorganize the bookmarks (alphabetically or numerically). That way, finding the right page would become easy AND quick, not having to read through hundreds of bookmarks to find the right one

    The app is great, one of the best in my opinion,
    Thanks, and keep up the good work

  15. 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?

  18. Add the ability to have multiple saved text styles. Currently, you can only save one "default" text style, but I use multiple styles in different places, i.e. headlines and body text for note-taking in school.

    Also, allowing different default text styles per notebook would really be a nice feature. I'm sure many of us use different default depending on the notebook, and it gets cumbersome changing the settings each time.

  20. I've been using GoodNotes for 3.5 years now and some of my notebooks are quite long. Scrolling through looking for things is difficult in these because there are so many pages to navigate and the scrolling is fairly slow. The search function works well but not for looking through diagrams/drawings. The thumbnail view is good for getting to the start or end of a notebook, but the pages are far too small to see what's on them in that view.

    I would really welcome a nice way to scroll through pages faster in writing mode.
