  1. Sometimes when you use the same hexcode the colours between the pen and highlighter don't match, I then end up messing around with colours until the match better, would love if the highlighter matched more :)

  4. We need faster accelerated scrolling like Apple Notes, Margin Note or even the default PDF viewer app in the Files app. The scrolling speed of files in GoodNotes feels like my pages are stuck in mud, requiring me to use multiple long swipe gestures across the iPad to scroll down/up faster and reach my desired location. I noticed that multiple swipes also doesn't 'accelerate' the speed, which isn't an issue on other apps that I mentioned above or Apple native apps like Notes and Safari. Please implement this. Thanks.

  6. The pen box function can store more pens and put them somewhere on the screen, so that users can set them up in advance and put them in the pen box, so that they don't have to always switch brushes, which is more convenient.

  7. Many people use good notes for planner or as a diary. It would be very helpful one could add a reminder entry or calendar entry during taking notes . For example just button that shows entry of reminder at that place. Also reminder app will have an entry so that it will notify you when needed. Perhaps as a separate purchase. Like pencil planner app in app store.

  9. I suggest a more customizable range of template colors, that can also be used to replace preexisting backgrounds on imported PDFs.
    I also think it would be a good idea to be able to customize the color theme of the entire app.

  10. About once a year I waste half an hour trying to see if I can save preset text colors the same way I can save custom pen colors. Because the interface is identical I perhaps unfairly assume this will involve much the same code and would therefore be an easy fix. I therefore keep thinking a fix would be right around the corner. At this point, I would be better served by having you come out and say that you are never going to get around to it , so I can spend my time jury-rigging a work around. Don’t…

  11. Es wäre sehr hilfreich, wenn man die Lernkarten (z.B. für Vokabeln) in beide Richtungen abfragen lassen könnte.

  13. The little blue box that shows up in the zoom box for you to continue writing can be great and also annoying.

    It could definitely be more cursive friendly, maybe drop over to the next space once you start writing and not when you finish?

    Or make it so we can make it bigger when the next word is more the three letter?

  14. Being able to share and download actual sticker packs or “elements” on the community section. Right now all the stickers are just a note with the stickers on it and you have to screenshot and crop all the “freebie” stickers.

  15. Please include an option to disable the zoom window and the highlighting/selection features entirely. I prefer to zoom and select manually and it’s annoying to have the app constantly highlighting parts of my musical score or to see the black “zoom” option button appear just because I’ve touched the screen a bit too long.

  17. Enable File Storage without iCloud backup - My daughter is halfway through her sophomore year in college and loves (we all do) good notes. Her first years data is taking up several mega bytes of data (almost 32) which is all the memory she has on her iPad. As she continues we will obviously have to buy a new iPad and storage but would be great to be able to save that first years data to an offline file for use down the road to refer to and or share with friends. Good notes rocks, please add that feature!

  20. can we have the ability to adjust more highlighter settings, for example the ability to change the opacity of it and be able to make the general size of the highlighter smaller (similar to how the standard pens can be 0.3 rather than have 1.0 as the smallest option)
