  1. The documents shared do not appear across Apple devices. This seems to only be an issue on the device. it appears online. But I need it to appear on each device. All of my documents are backed up to the cloud. How do I fix this issue?

  2. As a student collaborating with others on GoodNotes, comments are used to share additional information or as a way to summarize pages and chapters. Hence, it would be great if it was possible to view all comments that have been written on the documents, without having to scroll to every single page.

  4. When writing with the pen, sometimes GoodNotes will stop registering it for a short bit, and cause my handwriting to look very off. This doesn't appear to be a Windows issue since Microsoft OneNote does not have this occur.

    Otherwise, I think the app is in a good state for a beta, and that this being fixed along with adding other essential features (text, importing images, pen settings, etc) would make it a great program!

  11. Please add the option for screen readers to 'read' what the PDF says. It would make this app very well-rounded for those of us with visual impairments.

  12. I want to set the text box setting by my choice.
    For example, whenever I use text box, the settings always get back to "24,black". But I want to set it into "20,red,bold"
    I hope you understand what I mean.

  13. My goodnotes application is having problems when saving work. Should be improved to be more stable and make the functions similar to the iOS version.

  14. The erase tool memory is poor. Sometimes, the pen marks that were erased appear again after the Goodnotes app has been closed and opened again, which often leads to a messy overlap between the previously erased text and the new text.

  17. We should be able to pinch out the file more than it lets us now, we should be able to go as high as 50% of the size, we should also have a favorite tool bar placed on the side of the screen on right or left to make it easier to reach for

  18. Please incorporate the zoom-in feature like that of the iOS version on iPad where you can write/draw in the zoomed-in section. This would be really helpful if utilizing a pen with a touch screen windows computer

  19. The two items I see need improvement are:

    • Stylus input lag still seems behind the competitors like onenote, penbook, and scrble. I'm using a surface pro 7 with surface pen so I should be a good test subject. While i understand pen lag may never match onenote because Microsoft builds the hardware and software, goodnotes needs to catch up with the others such as penbook.

    • Infinite paper - need this for doing larger diagrams

    • I need text/typing input like onenote. This is the only reason why i stick with onenote as my primary, as i do both handwritten and typed…
