  2. I think there should be a smaller version of the tool bar that doesn’t take much space in screen
    dynamic option will be a great addition because it allow us to customize the tool bar however we want for example making it smaller, auto hide feature (like the one in notes app in iPad).

  4. Not sure this will take off or not but figured I would see, I have been collecting watches for a few years and I rotate weekly so I figured I would make a thread so everybody that’s interested can post there weekly or daily wear watch.

  5. When taking notes, it would be helpful if there was a way to create flashcard desks automatically from a document. I envision is being something where we could select the text that we want, and then there would be an option within the menu to automatically turn that text into a flash card. It could also be something where we could take a screenshot like we normally can with the lasso tool and then have an option there to turn it into a flashcard and then have the ability to select what we want blocked out on the front of…

  6. As a planner and student, it would be so helpful to have an adjustable opacity for pictures that we insert. This would allow text underneath to show or for layering stickers or for block scheduling. It would really improve planning on the iPad. Thank you!

  12. Im Moment kann ein Post-IT/ gelber Zettel im Dokument zwar angezeigt und „beschriftet“ werden, aber dieser Text lässt sich nicht zusammen verschieben, sollte man sich doch entschieden haben diese Notiz auf der Seite anders zu platzieren.

  13. I wish your app could allow Video and Audio Recording and producing nice tutoring videos similar to what possible in Doceri.
    Your app is much more user-friendly and performs way better than Doceri in any aspect, but unfortunately, it misses that feature.

  14. I do a lot of math and when creating equations I like to make exponents, subs or even small corrections a different line width for them to stand out. It would be very helpful to be able to to use the pencil tap shortcut on Apple Pencil to change the line width and even the color instead of having to constantly reach up to the selection menu to switch back and forth. I have attached a screenshot of a very long problem that I have solved using method as an example of what I’m referring to and how useful it…

  16. I am a math teacher and would love the ability to use these tools during my lesson. I generally use GoodNotes to project the pdf version of the math book students work from. But when I have to use manipulative such as a ruler or protractor or fraction pieces I have to go back to my doc cam. I love the ability to move around the room that GoodNotes and iPad has allowed me to do instead of stuck behind my desk using a doc cam.

  17. Be able to write and view a note in dark mode however automatically invert to white paper and black/ darker coloured text when exporting to a pdf, sharing the document or printing. Onenote already does this and it is very useful.

  19. I like a simple, minimal, clean, and concentrated UI. So I think if GoodNotes can provide a function that I can one tap on the screen to hide all the tool panel, just leave the canvas there. Then this would be very great!

  20. Paging Transition WITHOUT any effect (like one can with PowerPoint or Adobe Acrobat).
    I use GoodNotes in virtual meetings as well in presence ones. The page transition animation are ‘nice at first’ but always distracting, specially in cases of two or more pages that are identical except a few visual clues (like an added box to call attention to a detail)… in those cases a clean, seemless transition, is a MUST.
    I saw many other suggestions of the kind here, all SHUTDOWN by some ‘moderator’ as being a non issue that you can set the presentation mode to always full
