  1. The UI is becoming somewhat cluttered, and in particular, various AI controls (which I don't and will never use) are becoming somewhat intrusive. It would be great to have an option to disable these to clear the UI up a little.

  2. I study with GoodNotes 6 on my Windows PC.

    To highlight with a mouse is not fast if you wanna be accurate. Moroever, if it's a short word, that increases the difficulty.
    When I try it, maybe 30% of times pop up a menu with the options: paste and add comment. It's extremely annoying, and it makes me waste time every day.

    You should configure the option to disable it. Or at least, give us the option to modify the time the mouse click is held down, because right now it's crazy short.

    Thank you

  3. Currently, the lasso tool allows you to screenshot part of the page, but only to download it. It would be great to have an option to copy the image as well, making it easier to paste directly where needed.

  5. 私が勤務する高校でGoodnotes Educationを導入しました。授業で使用する書類の整理等をWindows/Web版で行おうとしましたが、クラスフォルダへ授業プリントを入れることができませんでした。今後、WindowsPCで準備をしやすくしてもらえると嬉しいです。現在は、PCにある授業プリントを、Googleドライブに入れ、それをiPadでGoodnotesに移すという作業を行っていますが、少し面倒です :(

  6. if I have multiple voice records in one file, there should be like an icon\sticker or something to let us play each recording associated with its specific page

    ex: i have a recording to explain a topic but i have no indication in that page that there is an audio with it unless i name the recording page(blank)

  8. There shouldn't be a character limit for outline titles. For example, I can't use "Comparison of Linear and Angular Motion with Constant Acceleration" as an outline title due to the character limit.

  9. When using a PC with a mouse and no touchscreen, navigating around a witheboard is difficult. I would suggest having a "hand" tool like you see in PDF readers and scrollbars like in Freeform.

  11. it's really annoying to have to leave the pen to scroll with the mouse because the scrolling bar is invisible. WHY?! i want to scroll with the bar on the side without putting away the pen to grab the mouse and scroll with the wheel. yes the scroll bar reappears when i scroll, but it's useless because it disappears after 2 seconds and does not appear in any way other than wheel scrolling with the mouse. VERY ANNOYING! scrolling should be available in few ways (like Adobe Acrobat) but here for some reason you only can scroll with the wheel.…

  12. As what apple's version can do, I think it is important to make it easier to import pdfs to the app. In IOS version, we can directly import pdf to goodnotes app in the sharing function, but now, we need to open the app and choose the pdf, which is very inconvenient.

  15. I just recently started using Goodnotes as a way to take notes while listening to live lectures. Due to the live nature of this, it requires a lot of shorthand note-taking. Specifically, I shorten the word "Number" to "#", which is a regular shorthand for many people. However, when I type "# " (specifically, # with a space after), the Text Document auto formats and creates a new line with a much larger font that has been made bold. This regularly breaks up my flow when note-taking. From my research, Goodnotes does not allow for Custom Formatting. But I also…

  16. Have the shapes tool its independent color and line selection.
    The shapes tool uses at the moment the current color and line variant from the previously used pen. If you want another color or make it dotted that's fine.
    BUT if you change back to pen, the pen adapted the settings.
    You would have to change everything back from like orange dotted to blue single line before you could write again if you chose that for the shape.

  18. Bei mir löschen sich die gespeicherten Farben regelmäßig. Das nervt auf Dauer, weil ich ein System mit den Farben habe und gerne die gleichen hätte.

  19. Please can we have the ability to have the same subscriptions from iOS to Android/windows. I would like to be able to use Goodnotes across my various electronics because I love it and use it constantly on my iPad. But right now due to having the "Special Edition" subscription that is apparently "Only available on Apple platforms" I can't use my favorite note taking app on my windows computer.

  20. On the web version, when the caps lock is on, the keyboard shortcut features do not work until caps lock is disabled. Can you make it so the function/method that recognizes keyboard shortcuts ignores the case and still works when caps lock is on. Thank you
