Digital agenda - how to get started with a digital planner

What is a Digital Planner?

Digital planners mimic the appearance of traditional paper planners but are available as PDF files that you can import into a note-taking app on your tablet.

Unlike electronic calendars such as Google Calendar or Notion, digital planners are designed to be used intuitively, resembling a paper notebook.

While they closely resemble traditional paper planners found in stationery stores, digital planners exist in PDF format on your iPad or tablet.

You can import these PDF files into your preferred note-taking app and customize them to suit your style. One of the greatest advantages of using a digital planner is its portability—you can take it with you wherever you go.

Moreover, digital planners often include built-in hyperlinks, allowing for seamless navigation between different pages and tabs with just a single click.

Why Go Paperless with Digital Planning?

  1. Practicality: Digital planners are practical tools for organizing schedules and projects in various aspects of life.
  2. Accessibility: They are easily accessible and portable, saving space in daily life and on-the-go.
  3. Tactile Experience: Digital planning combines the tactile feeling of paper with the convenience of digital tools, allowing users to see their own handwriting and thoughts.
  4. Synchronization: Easily sync and share your calendar across all devices using cloud storage.
  5. Customization: Digital products like diaries and notebooks are highly customizable, allowing users to add pages, stickers, and colors according to their preferences.
  6. Flexibility: Unlike traditional paper planners, digital planners allow for easy undoing of actions or use of the erase tool, making corrections effortless.
  7. Time-saving: Digital calendars save time with features like copy and paste or quick search options, streamlining organization.
  8. Environmental Impact: Going paperless is an eco-friendly choice, contributing to tree conservation and environmental sustainability.

How to Use a Digital Planner?

To get started, you'll need:

  1. A tablet or iPad
  2. A stylus for your tablet/iPad
  3. A note-taking application, available on the IOS or Android store
  4. Templates in PDF format with hyperlinks, which you can find in our online store.

Please note that our products consist of digital planners and journals in PDF format, as well as digital stickers in PNG format. We do not provide software or applications for tablets or iPads.

To utilize our products (PDF or PNG files), download a note-taking application to your tablet or computer from the IOS or Android online store. You can use our products with any application and on any device that supports PDF files.

Once you've installed the app and familiarize yourself with its functionality, you can purchase one of our digital products to maximize its utility.

Simply import the PDF documents or PNG images into your application to personalize them just as you would with a paper planner.

Choosing a Notes App

Before making a purchase from our store, we recommend familiarizing yourself with the note-taking application you intend to use and ensuring its compatibility with your devices.

Each application offers its unique features for annotating your digital diary or notebook. You can handwrite using a compatible stylus by selecting the "pen" option or type using the "text box" option.

Our digital planners are equipped with integrated hyperlinks, enabling seamless navigation between pages and tabs with just one click! Most applications support hyperlink functionality.

To utilize hyperlinks, you must set your note-taking application to “read-only” mode, such as with Goodnotes (our preferred application).

The choice of notes app is subjective and contingent upon your devices. We recommend testing several applications on your tablet to ensure they meet your expectations.
