    I’ve found that using iOS/iPadOS Shortcuts is a handy way to achieve this.

    I created a list in Reminders called “Triage” to hold the reminders I create in GoodNotes.

    Then I created a shortcut:

    - Receive “Any” input from “Share Sheet”
    - Split “Shortcut Input” by “New Lines”
    - Repeat with each item in “Split Text”
    — Add “Repeat Item” to “Triage” with “No Alert”
    - End Repeat
    - Show notification “Added reminders: “Repeat Results”

    Click the info button (the “i” in the circle”) and switch on “Show in Share Sheet”.

    Now in GoodNotes:

    - Capture your todos with the Lasso tool
    - Open the popup by tapping within the lassoed section, and choose Convert
    - This gives you a popup window with the text GoodNotes has discovered in the window
    - Tap the Share button and choose your new shortcut
    - Rejoice as each line of text is turned into a new Todo item in your selected list!

    It would still be great to have the auto-detected todo feature that Bob originally asked for, but this is a quick and easy workaround that only uses built-in apps.
