  1. Right now, when I use Good Notes on Windows and I open a notebook, the overview panel of the book is on the left side and doesn't go away under any circumstances. I'm talking about the ability to see the cover, and all the pages you've written at the same time, is open on the side of the app and doesn't close. This takes up some of the screen and you cannot write through it or around it really. I would like the ability to open and close that just like on the iOS version.

  5. Drawing is great, but we need to have the ability to add text through typing into our documents.

  6. I think that you can maybe add an option to also be able to group notes together in one file and also add more pen options.

    1. It would be nice if it could be used in a square shape when using a wool snare.

    2. It would be nice if there was a rotation function after selecting the lasso like when using the iPad.

    3. I would like to support pop-up notes to increase efficiency

    4. I wish there was a post-it function

  7. es wäre gut wenn man alle Dokumente/Notizbuch in ein Ordner zusammenführen kann in Goodnote mit einem Überschrift mit viele Notizbücher mit den selben Themen die zur Überschrift passen damit es nicht so voll aussieht in dem Hauptbildschirm

  8. I would like the feature of setting an image to the back/background. When I write over a photo and need to move a pen mark, I have to erase the mark, as moving the mark would move the image too.

  11. Sometimes I just want my freehand drawing to have smoother line. If I use the shape tool to sraw wave, it will turn out to be a zig zag line, which is not what I wanted. Can you add an option to just smoothen the strokes instead?

  14. I'm trying to use shared notebooks with my students. Some of them have an iPad or Mac. Those that don't are unable to do more than read them. IThe children just love doing the homework I give them in GoodNotes! It's far superior to Google Docs! Thank you!

  15. I would find it very helpful to introduce the following function:

    • no matter what the page view is at the moment, if you double tap on the page, the page will adjust to fit the screen width. This helps the easier readability of the document.

    • if you double-tap the page again, the page adjusts to fit the entire screen. I find this especially helps the structuring of documents.

  16. Being able to hover over tools in writing mode and have little dropdown tooltips to display a single keystroke shortcut (like p for pen, e for eraser etc.) as well as optional short descriptions.

    In Addition having nested single key shortcuts for example pf for fountain pen, pb for ball pen, ps toggling draw and hold etc would def go a long way (and like id imagine similar nesting for the other tools aswell as the colour and stroke controls personally)

  17. Sometimes we may want to insert a video clip n write comments beside it..for example..a review journal…or during a lecture if a lecture is being given on the board by drawing..mere voice recording feature won’t help us review the concept… it would be really helpful..if we could insert video recordings of the class.
