  3. Be it an image, pdf or audio recording - being able to add these into a notebook can really enhance a students ability to use the app as their primary note taker! In Samsung Notes, I'm able to snap a quick photo of the blackboard and through GDrive can immediately add it to my notes. This is one of the last remaining pieces to the GoodNotes puzzle!

  4. Adding extra margin space on imported PDFs would make annotating easier and neater. Being able to place sticky notes in this extra margin space would be ideal.

  5. I annotate a 200+ page pdf and it's getting to be kind of a hassle scrolling back to the page where I left off, so it'd be great if a feature was added where I could open a notebook and automatically be on the same page I left off on!

  8. I write on pc with a graphics tablet and I cannot move horizontally through the page while zoomed in. A pan tool will help immensely if used with a graphics tablet side button. Drawboard pdf app provides just that feature.

  9. It would be nice to have the feature to import your own notebook covers (as a pdf, jpeg etc.) so that you're not limited by the in-app notebook covers. Overall, would prefer if it's just like the ios version.

  10. On the one hand, I would find importing files very important. In addition, I lack the function to insert my own pictures or pdf's as a booklet template. There are too many differences in the thickness of the pins. The smallest step is too thin compared to medium, which is already very thick. Otherwise, maybe text fields or similar for typing with a keyboard. In addition, of course, sharing or exporting would be very helpful. Maybe just have a look on some functions of Goodnotes 5.

  13. We can now import documents into Goodnotes which is AMAZING, but now I think it is more crucial than ever to be able to have text recognition, select texts, highlight texts, and add comments that are linked to the highlighted text. This probably also goes in line with being able to type text with a keyboard.

  14. Goals that have to be aimed, sorted by importance (1 is most important):

    1. Instant change from eraser back to pen (the approx. 1sec. delay is annoying)
    2. More fluent when writing
    3. PDF Export
    4. No problems with hands lying on screen, especially at first touch
    5. More pens in quick board
    6. Possibilty to organise several notebooks to a binder
    7. Copying notes from one notebook to another
    8. Possibility to step some steps back in a notepad (e.g. drawing some lines and deleting stuff ....) even if you have been in another one in the meantime
    9. Possibilty to draw definite arrows quick

    At least 1…

  16. I installed beta verson about three to four weeks ago, and there has been no update since then while all other apps on MS store have updated almost every weeks.
    When will this application import from and export to iPad version, import PDF file, work with Dropbox or any tiny improvement?
