  3. Being able to underline/highlight key words (or change colour of text) when making flashcards (in the text section) to make it easier to study. As someone with dyslexia this would be really useful as well as being able to choose what colour i want to highlight so i can see things better!

  4. Currently on the Windows version, you can only export the entire notebook. For a student with a notebook containing 100 pages of homework, this can take a while, then I have to re save the PDF with just the pages I need to turn in. Please make it so I can select one or a couple of pages and export that group.

  5. The ask Goodnotes feature has so much potential but is so limited in his uses right now. Multiple studies show that infos hold longer to memory when you tried to retrieve them. That is the case even if you didn’t know the answer at the time of the question. If we could use the Ask feature to create multiple questions on our document it could be so beneficial. Right now the fact that you cannot chose a segment on which creating questions or ask the app to create more is a shame.

  6. I hope the font size could be bigger than now as overview of learning set.
    It’s really hard to find the specific card from a big learning set.

  7. Being able to have colors that are saved per notebook would make it a lot easier and clearer what topic you’re noting. For example, if I use red in English but change the preset to green in Science, it would make sense that those colors stayed in their own presets in each notebook.

  9. GoodNotes 6 (GN6) Zoom Window Tools

    In GoodNotes 4, the Zoom Window had convenient controls at the top, allowing users to easily change colors, erase, and undo without needing to navigate to the top menu. This feature was incredibly useful, and its removal in subsequent versions has been puzzling.

    Please consider reintroducing these controls in GN6, as they significantly enhance the app’s usability. Many users have requested this functionality since GN5, so it would be highly appreciated.

  10. At this Time (11/2024) there is no backup or sync function in Goodnotes for Android version 175421-rc2.

    I have to export each document to a pdf that I move into my Nextcloud directory. Unsafe and not convenient.

  11. When I have a document open and I want to open another, I hit the home icon in the top left and it pulls up the file organizer. AFAIK there is no way to leave this file menu to re-enter the editing screen without opening a document. As in, remembering which files were already open to “open them again” or just open any file and then close its tab once I am back in the editing screen. There should be a button directly where the home icon is that leaves the file menu and returns to editing (if there are…

  12. Nowadays it is becoming popular in the world to learn Ukrainian language. I propose to add Ukrainian to the list of languages. It is a language of the Cyrillic family, I think it would be easy to do on the basis of the Russian language.

  13. Dear Goodnotes Team,

    As a teacher, I am an enthusiastic user of your software, just like many of my students. Since we have a projector in every classroom, the digital notebook replaces traditional blackboard writing in my lessons. Instead, I write in Goodnotes and show this live to my class via the projector.

    However, I came up with a great idea on how you could effectively expand your software: When I explain something in class and add new content to the Goodnotes notebook, which gradually collects all the blackboard notes for that particular class, I have to export the newly…

  14. There are certain items that are used frequently but which get lost in a long list of items (e.g., new file template). It would be great to be able to pin this to the top, or in a sidebar, so that one never has to scroll to find it.

  15. It would be nice if we can minimize the toolbar or even hide it. The current toolbar is taking too much space especially in landscape mode.

  16. I think it would be super useful to have an option to save presets per documents. I have different notebooks for subjects in school and want to use different colors per document but don’t want to have to change my presets every time. so one notebook could be different pinks and one can be greens and one can be different colors.

  18. When we write something an audio tape would be really helpful. It works like the tape function but an audio is played when tapped. It will really benefit language learners as they can add the pronunciation on it and listen to it back.

  19. I recently switched from Notability to Goodnotes, I enjoy this app but I found the centering tool to be very helpful on Notability. I like my notes to be as clean as possible so I’d greatly appreciate it if some type of action was to be done for this to happen!
