  1. 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.

  2. Ce serait vraiment cool si on pouvait insérer autre chose que des entre manuscrite. Après tout c'est le but de l'ordinateur. Si vous pouviez rajouter un onglet ou l'on peut taper des texte se serait super. Et aussi, il faudrait un moyen facile de se reconnecter a son compte et pouvoir récupérer celui de son iPad par exemple.

  3. I tried the Windows Beta today. Hit the download link and installed from the Windows Store. Was unpleasantly surprised to find that it's just an Edge-based web app. I prefer Chrome over edge but continued anyway. It changed my default browser to Edge without my permission. It took many tries to sign into my existing Microsoft account. I finally got a Goodnotes window but all that was displayed was a pulsating GN icon. I never got a UI at all.

  4. The back and forth buttons please either left or right. The distance to the buttons is too far for a right-handed person.

  5. I think it's always a good idea to have a tutorial feature with new apps like how adobe's open screen has a list of features that can be done on the app. This might take a bit to lay out and present.

  6. Can we change the pen/eraser mouse interface when drawing? Like have a circle instead of showing the mouse for the pen/eraser similar to how OneNote changes the mouse view while drawing.

  9. I wish there was a way to see the outline or add tabs that could link to another page, or a way to link a page to through textboxes.

  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.

  11. I would love if the column within notebooks that has the pages listed/previewed could be collapsible. In portrait orientation, this gets in the way of the actual page displayed, and makes it harder to work in the left-hand most part of the page.

  14. The pressure of the pen remains same throughout. It should vary with curve of the letter.

  18. On MacOS and iOS, GoodNotes is very effective with the quirks that come with both platforms. However, the Windows platform has a plethora of quirks that can make a Windows GoodNotes as good as the one on iOS. Here is a quick list I came up with that would enhance GoodNotes on the Windows platform:

    Integration with Windows apps: Integrating with other Windows apps such as OneNote, Microsoft To-Do, or Microsoft Office would make GoodNotes more useful and provide a better user experience.

    Cloud integration: Windows users often rely on Microsoft's cloud services like OneDrive or SharePoint. Integrating GoodNotes with…

  19. Like Microsoft OneNote, introducing a feature to add tags to handwritten text or images within a page benefits students.

    This feature would allow students to keep track of specific content instead of adding the entire page to the outline (like GoodNotes on IOS).

    I have included a written example for more information.

  20. Although there is a palm rejection, it fails quite frequently which is very annoying (renaisser pen, maybe it's incompatible?)
