  1. There's a slow pen response while writing. After a few seconds, letters or strokes starts appearing, and even sometimes, all of the gestures aren't recognized.

  2. 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

  3. It would be nice to have the ability to fill different shapes with an extra tool. This is a thing I also miss in samsung notes (and a reason for me to switch to GoodNotes if the app comes out in the full version).
    This tool should work for pen and marker.

  4. If I have multiple pages across multiple notebooks and folders and i want to move or copy some page from one notebook/folder to another notebook / folder this feature is currently not available. This would be a really nice feature to have.

  6. In the search result of Korean, the result need to be separated by the typed word combination.
    i,e.
    In case of searching without space among words, only the result without space need to be shown.
    Presently individual word is being searched and displayed. So the result is so many.
    In case of searching with space among words, only the result with exactly matching with the word order and space need to be shown.

    Really thanks for your improvement.

  7. In the searched result, text result is improved. However page thumnail is showing the part of the page only, so it's difficult to recognize the overall page configuration. This is required to easily find the table or picture on the specific page. Additionally multiple word searching option is required like
    1.exact matching
    2.including searching word
    3.multiple searching with + (ex) apple + juice + delivery

    Really thanks for your great improvement

  8. Add a lock button to freeze page layout when writing. Too many times the page is moving during note taking.

  9. I want to be able to click a file from the file explorer window, have it open in Goodnotes, and have all of my edits savable directly to the file in its location in the file explorer. This would be a useful feature for college students, academics, and anyone else who regularly reads PDF files.

    Otherwise Goodnotes needs some kind of file organization system rather than all of my potentially thousands of imported PDFs on the same scrollable page. I could make Goodnotes work if I could make a folder for every class or project.

  10. Under sidebar condition, when I see the specific page and select another page, then selected page is shown. Under this condition when I press the 4 squaned icon on the left top under home button, in order to see the selected another page without sidebar, previously shown page is shown. I cannot move to the another page with side bar condition.
    Under the window mode, I'm also facing the same problem.

  11. 蛍光ペンについて、重ねて書くと色が重なって濃くなりますが、色がかさならずに同一の色で塗ることができる機能も増やしてほしい。きれいにベタ塗りできるようにしたいです。

  12. Suggest adding a fill option to pen created shapes that are closed, but not straight lines. Even nicer if the fill had hatch patterns.

  14. can you guys make it an option to sort by your own order like be able to drag the notebooks around to fit the order that you want instead of only having date, alphabet and type

    also make it possible for different folders to have different sorting options because i'm pretty sure right now if you choose a sort option it changes it for all your folders instead of just one

    these updates would be extremely invaluable also thanks so much for taking my feedback about the lasso tool!!

    :)

  15. The version of Goodnotes I am running doesn't have the option to view folders and files in a details/list view. It appears this is an option on other versions of Goodnotes, but it doesn't appear to be an option on the Windows version. Could this be added to the Windows version, please?

  16. Handwriting to font capabilities would be nice for those with messy handwriting. And it should help as well with the lag that there is currently.

  17. When I open a document and scroll with one finger it draws. When I tap with my stylus (spen) on the paper and then use my finger to scroll, it works and doesn't draw anymore.
    So basically to get palm rejection I need to tap my stylus on the paper.

    Maybe it's better to have a dedicated palm rejection button in a settings menu.

  19. I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab. However, when using the current GoodNotes, it is regrettable that the button on the side of the Tab S Pen cannot be switched to erase.
