Getting started with digital planning means you’re perhaps scatterbrained and now want to be organized. Kudos! Being organized means being more productive, and a digital planner can be your great companion.
From note-taking, scheduling your weekend, home chores, and much more, you can plan everything with your digital planner. You get loads of colorful stickers, templates, fonts, and more to have fun planning.
But honestly, if you’re a complete beginner, you may feel a little lost given a lot of choices and features. Does it sound related?
Don’t worry! Here’s your friendly handbook to navigate the magical universe of digital planning. Check out our proven digital planning tips to make the most out of your planner — whether you’re a beginner or seasoned user.
Which device to use for digital planning? Does a digital planner work on all devices? These are two of the most common questions beginners often ask.
Here’s the answer:
You can use digital planners on any device — PCs, laptops, or even smartphones. But most people choose tablets for a more convenient, natural, paper-like experience.
We highly recommend using a tablet with stylus support. For example, the Apple iPad with Apple Pencil and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S series (with S Pen). With a stylus, it feels like writing on paper.
Yes, you can use your fingers to write in your digital planner, but it doesn’t feel as much like paper, and think about finger fatigue.
Next, you need a digital planning app. Good news — you’ve got a lot of options. Bad news — lots of options mean big confusion.
Don’t worry!
You’ll be glad to hear that we’ve tested the top 10 digital planning apps and found GoodNotes and Notability the best. Notability works exclusively for Apple users, while GoodNotes supports both Apple and Android users.
Check out our latest 2025 GoodNotes vs. Notability comparison to decide which one suits you the best.
Would you be using the planner for school, work, or personal life? Would you draw, sketch, write, or type? Ask yourself these questions, read what other users say about the app you’re considering, and accordingly make the right selection for your goals and style preferences.
Planning should be fun, not boring! It should be something you love to use and that serves its purpose — helps you stay organized.
Fortunately, there are tons of impressive digital planners available for different themes, styles, and features. We have some awesome all-in-one digital planners in our shop, or thousands are available on other online places.
Whether it’s an upcoming wedding in the family, you’re an entrepreneur, or you just want to stay clear about daily home chores, you’ll find a digital planner fit for your needs.
Do you want something playful, minimalistic, or colorful? Do you need a daily, weekly, or monthly planner? Consider your goals and the features you look for in the planner.
This is one of the most important digital planning tips. You should be consistent with digital planning to make the most out of your planner. There’s no point in buying a digital planner and forgetting it.
Build a habit of using your digital planner for planning your days, weeks, months, weekends, home chores, or anything that requires planning.
Digital planners give you a lot of options for customization. You’re free to choose handwriting style, font size and style, layout options, color schemes, and more.
Choose a style that replicates the feel of writing on a paper planner. Choose colors and a layout that reflect your unique taste and help make your planners truly yours.
You can add digital stickers to your planner. Think of digital stickers as shapes, sticky notes, quotes, doodles, and icons that add a bit of joy and bring your planner to life.
Digital stickers often come in JPG and PNG formats. Once you’ve imported them to the planner, you can copy, paste, move, and resize them the way you want.
Whether a student, hobbyist, or professional, you’ll find handpicked sticker packs to add personality to your digital planning experience. Packs like educational stickers, number icons, garden day dreams digital sticker, daily mini stickers, and more.
As with starting anything new, it’s best to start slow and then go from there. Using a digital planner isn’t just a way to stay organized; it also reduces your carbon footprint by reducing paper consumption. So, follow our digital planning tips to stay organized and productive.
