  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Goodnotes Beta has made great progress in providing features and a great handwriting experience in the Android Beta. I have received an email indicated that the Beta is finished.

    Sadly there are two basic features that are required for any note taking app to be useful to notetakers.

    1. You must be able to take notes when you are not connected to the internet. As a student or a professional, you need to take notes anywhere, any time. You can't restrict yourself to note taking when an internet connection is available.

    2. Taking notes (typed or handwritten) is useless if you can't…

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  9. 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

  11. 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…

  15. This app is extremely racist, I can't understand why Apple's operating systems have upgrades that are not available here on Android and Samsung, the software is very weak, there are tons of free apps that are better than it, I paid money for nothing, too bad, it's not worth it, I can't upgrade For the 5th or 6th generation, and it cannot have all the upgrades that Apple devices have, not recommended friends, a waste of your money and nerves, an application that is outdated in levels and inconsistent with all the innovation that is currently in the market.

  17. It would be really good if all my documents are saved on the local device - or make it an option so I can work offline on them and not have to be connected. This will be great especially when there is no internet connection.

  19. Please make it so I can use the pen and use my finger without having to turn off the pen function each time. It ruins my work flow.

  20. A couple of things I have noticed from using the text feature.
    1. when you exit the editing mode, the size of the text slightly decreases which is frustrating when trying to change font size to fit in a particular space or sit on the ruled lines.
    2. the size of the text in a text box can reset to 25 seemingly randomly without you changing the size, especially when I am editing and clicking out of the text box to check if the size is correct and moving the textbox around

    these are more of a wish for extra…
