  2. It would be great if you could make searchable keywords a feature in Goodnotes. While it may not be feasible to make a written document searchable a great work around would be if we could add key words to a page just like a bookmark. Then we would be able to search that key word and pull up the pages that it is attached to.

    For example, I have a notebook specifically for learning a language. If I could attach the key word "vocabulary" to each page in each particular chapter where new terms are introduced, I could then search…

  3. Ability to Select pages of the document to export as a pdf is needed, instead of exporting all the document each time.

  4. Would be nice to turn the laser pointer to a pen (colour or type) OR an option to make the "markings" permanent and the ability to just erase it separately from pen ink as I use the trailing laser tool for active recall but whenever I accidentally click out of the app or at the borders, everything disappears and I am unable to see what I have written.

    Would be really useful!

    maybe with different colours as well as the usual pen colours are quite muted (not striking)

  5. I would be helpful to merge one document with another. By default, I suggest to append one document to the other. This helps keeping track of multiple versions of a document in one single notebook, and helps reducing the number of notebooks overall

  6. I purchased a Samsung Tab S9+, and it came with a 1 Year Premium subscription I cannot convert Handwriting to text, the pop up menu does not have a convert choice listed. Goodnotes support responded and explained that The Android Version does not currently support Handwriting to Text conversion (the iOS version does). Please add this feature! It's an important use case for me. Thanks!

  7. just like in OneNote, it would be great to save custom color palettes (more than 3) and also save the pen thickness along with the colors. It would also be great to have a pencil option as they create a different texture. I imagine to have my custom palettes available instantly on top of a full-screen display.

  8. Currently, making and deleting pages doesn't seem to be among the actions logged in the undo/redo list - so if I delete a page by mistake, there's no way to get it back. Or, if I make the wrong page by accident, there's no immediate way to undo it.

  9. FIX YOUR APP. Your app has constant bugs. I cannot paste images, the frame rate of the app drops significantly all the time, and a bug where everything on the page is magnified and it wont return to normal until I stop writing happens constantly. This is the most important time during my semester and your app is causing my academics to suffer.

  10. I wish there were more slots to pick between colours at the top of the screen and find myself constantly having to change the colour selected instead of just picking a different circle with a different colour. Three circles at the top are not enough for the amount of colours one used in lectures and notetaking

  12. I wanted to snipp out a short part of my essay and copy it to another page, as I wanted to paste it to the page the whole programme freezed. I was tapping and nothing happened except the switching of the tool but I couldn't write or paste anything onto the page or switch the page or move it. So I restarted the app and as I went into my notebook for my essay the whole page was cleared, the whole essay was gone, irrevocable. And that's not the first bug I noticed, for example when you select something and…

  14. Hello, I would like to see if they would introduce a "write mode". You could then choose between writing with the pen and writing with the keyboard in the top bar, just like in iOS.

  15. The idea for the Windows ver:
    It is pretty helpful if the OCR function is allowed on the Windows app.
    Right now, it is difficult for users to copy or select any sentences (even alphabet sentences) on the documents.
    As available on the iOS version, can this be considered as a full function on the Windows version?

  18. Ich finde es ziemlich dreist Geld zu verlangen zum aktuellen Stand der App...in keinster Weise mit der Version von IOS zu vergleichen...viel weniger Funktionen! Außerdem hängt die App bei mir oft, Notizen sind verschwunden und nun funktioniert auch das Lasso Tool nicht. Wäre die App kostenlos könnte man das akzeptieren, aber ich kann niemandem raten Geld dafür auszugeben bevor die App nicht auf dem Stand der IOS Version ist...Schade ich hatte mich sehr gefreut Good Notes auch endlich nutzen zu können.
    Bitte so schnell wie möglich die Funktionen denen der IOS Variante anpassen, dann würden es auch sicherlich mehr Leute…

  19. when I try to zoom in and write with my pen and there is a text field underneath the whole page moves as if I use my finger, doesn't indcate that I am writing something but when I let go the line or writing appears. Same for every other tool to write with the pen... After a while of waiting it stops but it is quite inconsistent...

  20. I am currently trying to write a text per keyboard and it keeps switching the size of the text after exiting the writing box. Font size keeps also switching back to 24 size after some while and I have given up for now to change the size. Maybe it's a bug but pls fix that, it's quite essential to be able to use that, especially if the option for that is already there...
