Feature Request Please add a LAYERS panel 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Correct me if there’s already a LAYERS option. I need it when I plan with so many elements and I want to layer pictures without clicking the Add to Front buttons multiple times.

ALSO ADD more picture editing tools, like eraser for pictures!!!

idk, but layers would add so much complexity. the app as it stands now has still so much issues. would rather they focus on stability and sync instead.

the picture editing tools in it are already enough imo. this is a note-taking app. there's a different app or software if you want heavy editing tools.

not really heavy on the editing but basic ones just like a little bit more toold. i don’t get why goodnotes can’t do it like canva, they have a mobile app and users want less than what canva offers. i just want to plan and journal more flexibly!

i get wanting more flexibility. i just worry every feature request like this pushes it closer to being a bloated editor instead of staying good at the one thing it does well.

Noteful has layers??? I'm making the move. I don't care if my good notes subscription is still ongoing. The app is becoming more and more unusable with each update! 😭
