  1. Hi, I am a new Goodnotes user, and selected this app for two reasons: 1) ease of use, 2) audio recording. I think the app is great! As I will be using audio recording a lot, could you please add the features below to audio recording?:

    1) Repeat.

    Could you add a button that would allow your recording to loop, replaying the recording continuously? This would help greatly when you want to hear the content over and over.

    2) Improved edit for audio.

    As other users have stated, sometimes you forget to turn off the record button, and end up…

  2. Merhaba GoodNotes Ekibi,

    Uygulamanızın son güncellemeleriyle birlikte gelen ses transkripti özelliği harika, ancak yalnızca İngilizce olarak kullanılıyor olması maalesef Türk kullanıcılar için büyük bir eksiklik. Rakip uygulama Notability bile Türkçe transkript desteği sunarken GoodNotes gibi lider bir uygulamada bu özelliğin eksik olması, biz kullanıcılar açısından olumsuz bir durum yaratıyor. Bu nedenle, Türkçe transkript desteğinin eklenmesini içtenlikle talep ediyoruz.

    Ek olarak, uygulama içi ürün fiyatlarının Türkiye’de doğrudan dolar kuruna bağlı olarak yüksek seviyelerde olması da Türk kullanıcılar için önemli bir erişim engeli oluşturuyor. Türkiye’nin ekonomik koşulları ve alım gücü göz önüne alındığında, Türkiye’ye özel bir fiyatlandırma politikasının uygulanması, uygulamanızın daha fazla…

  3. When using the lasso tool to cut/copy-paste images, pen, highlighter and shapes the lasso tool remains active after the desired paste action has been completed.

    When the lasso tool is used to perform the same cut/copy-paste function for text, once the text has been pasted the laso tool is dropped in favour of the text tool.

    Can the lasso tool remain the dominant feature after moving text please? I find myself inadvertently entering punctuation into the middle of text because the tool has defaulted without being actioned to do so

  4. Ability to search within the notes, both the file itself and the annotations, e.g., handwriting.

    Handwriting recognition just like in the IOS app.

  5. 이미지 크기를 키우거나 줄일 때 상하 좌우로 동시에 크기가 변해서 주변의 다른 개체와 크기를 맞추기 힘들고, 개체가 놓일 정확한 위치를 잡기도 힘듭니다.
    이미지가 오른쪽과 아래쪽으로만 크기가 변한다면 훨씬 수월할 겁니다.

  7. In the iPad app, you can do either textboxes or you can choose to use the 'typing mode' where the text automatically aligns with the lines on the page. I would love to have this feature for the Windows version of the app!

  8. Apparently goodnotes 6 only provides 1 default font type in the "typing section",

    I suggest goodnotes to provide different text fonts in goodnotes, such as "Times New Roman", just like in the textbox feature.

    If this feature of providing different text font is also provided in the "typing section", this would be very useful, as some people are only used to a particular type of font.

  9. The newly added pencil tool in Goodnotes 6 offers an excellent writing and sketching experience, with smooth and intuitive strokes. It would be fantastic to have similar brush settings and handwriting functionality for the fountain pen, giving users the option to adjust it for more stable, precise writing. Currently, the fountain pen feels unstable, and I often find myself switching to Noteful for better handwriting. If the fountain pen could incorporate the same improvements seen in the pencil tool, it would make Goodnotes 6 a more versatile and complete tool for note-taking and sketching.

  11. The search results highlight for a single word is too soft and light. It's quite difficult to find the word on the page. Please make the hilight much more prominent

  13. Add a grouping feature, similar to that in PPT or other MS apps, so areas of handrwriting, text, or other elements can be grouped together and moved or resized together easily, without having to tediously select desired elements with the Lasso tool.
    This way, drawings or diagrams with multiple sections can be layered and easily adjusted.

  14. The collapsible sticky note feature is really great! However, when you open it again it opens as a comment and not as a sticky note. Would it be possible to have it open as a sticky note again, and maybe also have the choice on what it should look like (number, symbol, size) when collapsed. This could really help my notes taking!

  17. As a med student that always write notes at the side i recommend paper margins which it can extend your pdf to write notes. Also layers for active recalling , its a great help and i discovered this in noteful app and its very very useful. Also the tags easy to navigate and well organized. I forgot, the suboutline also easy to navigate. I hope you guys add this features its very helpful for us students.

  19. Please create an option to natively import speaker notes from powerpoint files into either adendums to each slide, separate slides that follow each slide the notes are associated with, or another method like a sticky note on each slide. It shouldn't be a massive hassle to implement, since Powerpoint files can be extracted by command line as zip files, and all the speaker notes are located in /ppt/notesSlides/notesSlide*.xml files, with each slide having its own notesSlide.xml file. The speaker notes are located in plaintext in these files in some basic OpenXML formatting that Microsoft came up with for office. Specifically,…

  20. Improve pencil drawing quality - currently too light to use and must be part of pen options rather than standalone as present.
