  1. I have an iPad with large storage, and have only limited iCloud. I would love to clean my iCloud and move all all documents to my iPad storage. I am afraid to clear iCloud storage to loose any files as I’m not sure which ones are saved on iCloud and which ones are saved on iPad. I tried to find some help on blog but people are only asking about the other way around than I need, i.e. they are asking about uploading all the files to iCloud from iPad.

  2. A brush that when passed over the colors mixes them and thus creates gradients, for texts and drawings!
    I will leave an example of some texts that are nice in the procreate app, it would be very useful to have a mixer brush integrated in GoodNotes :)

  3. it would be great if the horizontal Page Swipe should be as smooth as the vertical.
    If you swipe to next pages you must do a long way with your finger.Sometimes two or three times.
    It needs to be faster.
    Thank you…

  4. The zoom window is great but it would be better if it wasn't locked to the bottom of the screen.

    If the zoom window could be moved to the upper or lower corners of the screen or relegated to a movable box. That way you could use the zoom window without moving the entire document all the time.

  5. It would be great if you could add new pages to the right of each page in vertical scrolling mode, like page(3.1).

  6. When I’m drawing a function like on a graph it would be helpful if i could just draw a parabola without it being ruined or not proper.

  7. It would be very usefull if it was added a color selector, much like paint as it. for example you are using someone else notes or writing or a preexisting template, it would be very helpful if you could select the color of something that written already and start using the same color to write

  9. I screenshot (with the lasso tool) parts of my textbook (pdf in goodnotes), but I have to screenshot and paste individually.
    I would like to screenshot (and possibly crop at the same time) and have them in a hold (like elements) and then paste them from the hold into my document. I would like it to be a temporary hold to, so an option to delete from this hold when pasted would be cool too.

  11. For example, I want to see how a sorting algorithm works but it’s hard to see the steps by making a bunch of graphs. So being able to make a small animation will help visualize how something works without having to create a bunch of pages

  13. The indent feature is currently only available on the left-hand side of pages. It would be very useful to have it on both sides.

  14. I like to type down the notes. but as a Chinese, I type two languages.
    When I type English with the TimesNewRoman font, and then I want to type Chinese, it changes into the font that I don’t like automatically.
    What’s worse, when I want to type English again, it’s still using the font that i hate, this time it didn’t change automatically, I have to change the font by myself again, it’s so annoying.
    Please save the default font by typing languages.
    Please improve the experience of typing.

  15. I would like the to have the ability to choose that accent colours within the GoodNotes app. I refer mainly to the blue strip at the top when viewing a document. Often, I turn my iPad onto the classic invert setting for nighttime viewing but the blue bar turns almost white when in dark or light mode on classic invert. I would like the ability to choose the colour of this blue bar.

  17. I love the app for studying and editing documents but I think the app is missing big features that would solidify its spot as the best note taking app in the App Store. The features that I feel would make the app 10x better: gifs, other short video replays, bigger library of stickers, different pen styles, dotted or other style lines, and more templates. Some of these are such easy add ons that it really doesn’t make sense why the developer haven’t done something about this already. Especially when countless other users have asked more these.

  18. A print friendly switch for dark paper where it temporarily changes the dark paper to white and switches light color handwriting to dark without having to go in manually and switch everything yourself just to print.

  19. Selective erase, just like the lasso tool. At the moment the only selection available for eraser is “Erase Highlighted Only” but some times i want to delete the text or shape within the highlighted area. Would be nice that we could pick “Erase handwriting only” as well.
