  3. Desired Improvements:
    1- Change text font (and supports all languages)
    2- Organize pen colors
    3- Add pen colors in the bar (more than three as default)

  4. I am filled with rage since you added comments when pressing long on the display, because now the whole app is useless. DIDNT YOU KNOW THAT WHEN YOU TRY TO WRITE WITH A PEN, YOU NEED TO PUT YOUR WRIST ON THE DISPLAY, SO NOW EVERYTIME I WANT TO WRITE, THE APP WANTS TO ADD A COMMENT AND I CANT WRITE BECAUSE OF IT. THANK YOU FOR KILLING THE APP FOR HIM. FUCK YOU GUYS.

  6. Please put a toll in to Export the Pages you have written. It would be nice if i can write in this app and send it as pdf to Friends of something like that.

  7. I'm sure more features will be added for the official release but one thing I want to see is the ability to add our own fonts for typing.

  8. Many digital stickers, labels etc that I download from the Etsy store come with a good notes preloaded sticker book. I would like to be able to utilize that instead of having to use all individual pngs. It would be amazing to have a side by side feature where I could just drag and drop out of a nice and neat organized sticker book that was already put together for me when I downloaded it

  9. Improve the handwriting recognition speed. Currently the pen feature will lag behind writing unless you write slowly, and this leads to very messy handwriting.

  10. I suggest to remove the 'add comment' function. It's very annoying as it always pop out when I'm writing notes

  13. Add the ability to edit what font you are typing in like on the ios version. I like being able to add different fonts to separate headers from paragraphs!

  14. Currently comments can be added to Goodnotes documents but cannot be resolved/deleted or even edited. It's frustrating to have a black and white "1" or "2" sitting on my document without any way to remove or change it.

  15. When I open a document and scroll with one finger it draws. When I tap with my stylus (spen) on the paper and then use my finger to scroll, it works and doesn't draw anymore.
    So basically to get palm rejection I need to tap my stylus on the paper.

    Maybe it's better to have a dedicated palm rejection button in a settings menu.

  16. The ability to record in the note and have it write it out as a text format like on Google Docs speech to text, or the Google pixel recording app feature. This would be great for people with disabilities as well.

  17. This feature exists in every notes app.
    When a photo is imported you should be able to crop the part you are interested in (using a lasso tool, rectangle selector and many other selectors), and drag it as if it were a new photo.
    This is used for example when an assignment is given in a PDF file, and the user would want to crop out each question and place them at the top of each page.

  18. it will be better if goodnotes web has a search button for searching words, because It will be easier for me to search for words through my file. Thanks in advance

  19. I want to be able to click a file from the file explorer window, have it open in Goodnotes, and have all of my edits savable directly to the file in its location in the file explorer. This would be a useful feature for college students, academics, and anyone else who regularly reads PDF files.

    Otherwise Goodnotes needs some kind of file organization system rather than all of my potentially thousands of imported PDFs on the same scrollable page. I could make Goodnotes work if I could make a folder for every class or project.

  20. I would like to have the option to have more than 3 default color at the top. 6 or 7 preset (favorite/saved) colors would be more adequate to avoid going to the color menu each time.
