  1. There is a bug, where the pen input isn't put on the page for ca. 5 sec. on a certain part of the page. Also there is a bug where the page seems to scroll to the top of the page randomly. The performance is relatively slow and when moving the page the background becomes blurry and takes 1 sec. to render.

  2. Having the ipad alignment tools (right, centered, left alignment) would be great but please also add a justify tool.

  3. I used it on iPad and seen a bit complicated to use the keyboard but in Windows case, there is no issue. Normally I used it because I had bad handwriting, but adding it makes more easy and more comprehensive text letters. Also try adding normal-use geometrical shapes like squares, and triangles, and add a cartesian plan.

  4. 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.

  5. Adding opacity for all the current AND future pens, highliters, brushes, and pencils.
    Same goes for tabs and images (especially if we need to write or draw on them).

  6. Of course i don't mean to make of it a digital art app !
    But for more common uses, adding a few different brushes, and like pastel, and watercolor would be awesome !
    Obviously with the opacity function.

  7. So, instead of having just 3 options of width of the erasor :
    - adding a cursor of thikness, so that we can ourselves choose what we need
    - adding a cursor of opacity of the erasor
    - making it more pixel precise (currently, it is too rough)
    - possibility of creating, let's say, 3 different but PERSONALIZED erasers : like one small and at 100%, one medium but at 40% opacity etc...

    This will save us a lot of time ! Thanks

  8. The simple thing you can ever make.

  9. 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.

  11. Allow the eraser option to either remove by stroke or just the way it is
    Making our own pallete (this would include a colour picker)
    Allow the users to have the ability to control their pen stabiliser (similar to that of digital drawing softwe)
    Making our own page templates or importing from the web
    Pinning pens with different colours
    Most windows styli has two buttons it would be great to allow the user to change commands between those two buttons
    Zooming in and out is a bit laggy as well as writing very quickly
    Costumising page size
    Brush imports or…

  12. 每次打开goodnotes笔记本,会无限次的调起idm的下载界面,下载空白的pdf文件,猜测应该是idm检测到goodnotes的网页上有文件就开始下载,希望goodnotes能屏蔽掉idm的下载,否则会反复弹窗导致无法使用

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

  15. In the iOS version you can select a portion of the screen with the lasso tool and make a screenshot. The screenshot can then be pasted into any GoodNotes document pressing and holding a point on an opened document.
    This functionality is particularly useful for doing homework and copying the exercise description on to a new page in order to work on it.

  17. The current options for covers are sort of limiting. For example, the solid white cover automatically has a yellow line, but I would like a green or a red line instead. An option to customize the color(s) of the cover would be awesome.

  19. In the windows Beta, in portrait view, there is a sort of enforced margin, in that you can't display the full page and can only start writing about an inch in. In landscape view this doesn't appear to be a problem but this isn't the most natural way to use a notebook for writing

  20. Ich fand es richtig cool, dass es endlich GoodNotes für Windows gibt und habe mich sehr gefreut. Für den Anfang ist es ein passabler Start, aber mit viel Luft nach oben, vor allem wenn man GoodNotes schon von Apple Geräten kennt.
    Was ich sehr schade finde und was dringend benötigt wird, ist die Funktion, dass man seine Aufschriebe auch als PDF speichern kann. Das ist vor allem für Studenten wichtig, denn wenn man Aufgabenblätter abgeben muss, muss man diese auch speichern können.
    Außerdem gibt es weder die Funktion, dass es Linien, Kreise und andere Formen erkennt, noch dass man sowas…
