  3. In a document, when it’s a PDF with two columns, sometimes I need to take notes for each paragraph, so if I use a sticky note to summarise one paragraph, it takes up space over the next paragraph. If we had sticky notes which could be seen as symbols/ icons when not needed, and extended when clicked, it could save a ton of space while allowing us to take notes for each section.

  4. When I position the screen vertically, the text box shrinks as a tab. When I return to the horizontal position, the text is shifted by about 1/5 of the page

  6. Give more writing utensil options such as pencils and a paint brush. Also, add more default colors or make the color customizing function a but more user-friendly. When I tried to use the color customization function, I found it difficult to find the exact color that I needed. More highligher color options would also be great!

  8. 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!

  9. Have a feature where selecting the writing enables you to change the colour of the writing rather than having to re-write it in another colour

  12. 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…

  14. It failed to open .goodnotes files from my iPad and says "unsupported document". Then I tried loading them in PDF formats but there were bugs when I tried to add a new page in that PDF file. It does not add a new plank page and duplicate the last page instead. Also, all became non-editable on Windows even when I set them as editable PDFs during export.

  15. Beta versions of app having bugs like stuck while scrolling and missing many features of my ios tab. I'm using samsung tab s8+ having powerful hardware configuration, So please improve your software as fluent of ios tab with all that feature including sharing file in pdf or goodnotes formats so that we can export or import goodnotes file between ios and android, please consider this. I'm doctor and this app is very helpful for me and all medicos. since long time I'm using goodnote5.

  16. Allows you to add pages in a block that are pdf or images.
    I think it is essential that, when you are going to add in a notebook a new page, it allows you to import some documents or pictures again.

  20. I'm using the goodnotes app on surface book 2 with surface pen. Compared to other apps like Onenote or “Concept” drawing app, there's a apparent input lag when I was writing.
    Wishing to be improved later.
