  1. Instead of having the Goodnotes default tool palette, it'd be good if the new iPadOS Tool Palette was introduced (when it comes out of course) on devices that support the system.

  2. Would be nice to staple two pages together or flip the page and use the back side.

  4. First, I love Goodnotes!
    Would it be possible to make a larger Return Button. I'm often taking bullet type notes, so I use the Return often, and when going quickly, it takes a moment to look and make sure I hit the button to create the next bullet, as it's quite small. I know this is a minor issue but it would speed things up for me a lot.
    Thank you very much.
    Cheers,
    Anthony

  7. Please implement a way to export notes to Powerpoint. Shapes should be converted to Powerpoint shapes, hand-written text should be converted to typed text.

  9. Please revert Zoom Window to how it was on GoodNotes4! And no, I am not simply referring to the shortcuts.

    On the previous version, we could write whilst “zoomed-in” and zoom onto other parts of the page while writing in that mode! Not so anymore!

    Whenever I try to write (while zoomed in) and look at other parts of the magnified page, it snaps back to focus on the part of page I am writing.

    Why is this an issue? I want to write notes while looking at other notes. I suppose I could zoom out 100% - but then…

  10. On goodnotes 5 I’d you keep hitting undo it undoes work you’ve completed on previous pages. Without noticing I’ve lost some of my notes and I wish that it was back to how it was in version 4

  11. For the love of God, please turn off the Goodnotes 5 popover reminder in Goodnotes 4. I’ve clicked it a dozen times now and it still comes back to remind me. If I wanted Goodnotes 5, I would have bought it by the 10th reminder. Thanks.

  14. Is there a way that GoodNotes can automatically generate an index. For instance, if you put text on a specific place of a page, the notebook would automatically index.

  15. Please allow the pages to be swiped like ebooks. Or other ways of maneuvering the pages like a scroll down option or ebook style. It helps sooo much when i’m reading books i’ve copied to the app!

  16. I will be more likely to use GoodNotes if I can import my IOS notes all at once, (I would not take the time to copy and paste one by one, it would take too long). Is there any way to do this?

  17. We are already able to copy an image to clipboard with the lasso tool.
    Would be great if we could insert that image later again.
    At the moment we need to safe it to photos and insert it from there, which can quickly mess up our photos.
