  1. The current zoom-in zoom-out is frustrating in that it does not allow the user to move the page, we instead move around a fixed point. In procreate were able to move the page any which way we want and I believe this would allow for greater flexibility on how a user can write their notes.

  2. It would be amazing if you could select what note cards you want to study at one time. Some material is harder than others, thus you only need to see certain material once or twice, while other materials need to be seen multiple times.

    I can make 200+ index cards and I need to be able to learn them efficiently.

  3. Study sets should be exportable to Anki or other flashcard types so you can easily share them with others.

  4. Currently when you go to Thumbnails it always starts at page 1. This can be inconvenient during lectures when you don't have a lot of time to lose during the writing of your notes.

    For example of you have a pdf with about 100 pages and you are currently at page 60. If you want to go back about ten pages from where you're at (so to p.50). Then you need to scroll all the way down from p.1 to p.50 instead of just 10 pages up.

    This is even more inconvenient if you don't know the exact page number…

  5. When editing flashcards on my mac, once I'm done, I am no longer able to swipe through the cards, I have to exit and go back in to begin swiping through them again.

    Also please add the ability to star/bookmark certain flashcards and study the "starred" set. Thanks!

  6. I often switch pencils colors and strokes width, also between pencils and highlights.
    If we can use stock buttons which enable us to stock pencils or highlights preferences including color, width, this function makes GoodNotes easier to use!!

  8. Hello, I use the study kit option a lot and there are some features that I would like you to include.

    1° I would like to have the option of being able to change the order of the cards, when I am in thumbnail mode, in the same way, that I can modify the order of the pages in a notebook.

    2nd I would like to be able to move cards individually or by selecting several from one set to another.

    3rd In thumbnail mode I would like to see the names of the cards much larger, on the iPhone…

  9. The new feature for writing over the whole page definitely needs adjustable fonts, as well as writing exactly in the lines of the template

  10. First thank you for your priceless. application. It’s really enjoyable to take notes.
    As a researcher, I need to read and annotate lots of papers. I would appreciate it if you could add a feature that allows me to write out the outline. I show it in the attachment. It will help organize and make annotation more enjoyable. Also, it gives us more space to make a connection between different articles.

  11. I'm a therapist, in 3 jobs, if I had an option to open a binder, then I would have 3 one for each job and each separation from the binder a client, and every time the client comes back I already have the continuation in the binder and separation from him

  12. Both the BMW X3 and X5 are luxury SUVs from the reputable BMW brand, known for their performance, comfort, and advanced features. However, the "better" choice between the two depends on several factors, including your specific needs, preferences, and budget. Read full comparison at https://truecarexpert.com/comparison/bmw-x3-vs-x5/

    The BMW X3 is a compact SUV, perfect for urban driving and smaller families. It offers a nimble handling, good fuel efficiency, and a comfortable ride.

  13. Clicking on Documents or Favorites in the MacOS-App while being deeper in their folder structures doesn't return you to their respective root folder.

    I'd like to see the same behavior implemented as in the iPadOS-App where you do return to the root folder.

    Thank you for your work!

  14. I previously submitted feedback that it would be nice for goodnotes beta to be able to import pdf files. I got the response that this is already possible but after multiple tries and lots of googling I found out that this still isn't the case. So hereby I try again.

  16. Please enable macOS typical keyboard shortcuts, which are used by most macOS apps such as
    cmd + for zoom in (currently cmd : which is not intuitive !)
    cmd - for zoom out (currently cmd ; which is not intuitive !)
    cmd ; for settings
    etc...
    Please follow to more widely used standard shorts to make the macOS experience more intuitive
    Thanks a lot

  17. I noticed how smooth the laser pointer writes so a suggestion is make another pen style that writes the same way as the laser pointer writes, while keeping the pressure sensitive too.

  18. It would be useful to be able to create more detailed table of contents with sub-tables of contents for each chapter, like in some PDF files. This would allow better organization and structure of the notes. Moreover, it would be convenient to be able to specify the exact location where a chapter begins, so that the link from the table of contents leads directly to the right position on the page, and not to the beginning of the page.

    Here is a visual example of what a more detailed table of contents with sub-tables of contents could look like:

    Table…

  19. Add an option in settings where the pages flip over like a real book does. Like the iOS reading app does.

  20. The ability to mass select flashcards in a pile, either to delete them or to duplicate certain ones. Sometimes I get shared flashcards from classmates but want to delete a number of them at once, which isn’t possible, so I have to delete one by one which is not only tedious but also reduces productivity.
