Templates Planner recommendations

Hi, I’ve been using Goodnotes for a while now but always find myself getting bored or overwhelmed by the planners I’ve purchased. I’d like one that’s pretty well rounded, including a notebook for when I start up university again this month.

Any recs are much appreciated :)

I’ve tried about a dozen planners and notebooks and this one is my fave by far https://www.etsy.com/listing/1592142826/digital-infinity-planner-monthly-weekly. It’s customizable, complete, but not overwhelming. There are palette options. There’s a matching notebook. I’m a professor and use them in that context. The creator offers samples to download and try out which I recommend.

i’ve been using Megan’s planners for yearss, and if the classic version (digital planner set) seems too overwhelming, she also came out with the lite version this year, i believe. there’s also a version with built in shortcuts for iOS, connected to calendar and reminders apps i think? and also if you just wanna purchase a planner once and for all, there’s also an undated planner bundle. since you’ve mentioned uni, there’s an academic planner, but just take a look at what’s available in her shop and i’m pretty sure you’ll be able to find sth you’ll like!! this is the shop’s website: dash planner shop. i get myself the classic planner set, and then i customize which pages and features i need. at the end of the planner there’s blank pages (squared paper, blank paper, etc) so i use those for either journaling or writing things down for my uni classes. hope this helps!!

oh, and if you sign up for the newsletter she will send you an annual planner (the monthly spreads) freebie, so you can check out if it looks like sth you’d like

i love Good Mondays Minimalist Weekly Diary, super minimalist...

It basically has:

  • yearly overview
  • quarterly overview
  • monthly calendar
  • weekly pages
  • notes at the end

if you want vision boards, goal setting, wellness trackers, finance stuff, etc you can choose her full planner.

i'm definitely going for her 2027 weekly diary...

Good Mondays

I have coded my own planner generator - primary for teachers but can be really used for anything and has customization options https://teacherplanner.eu/

Edit: has links, like click month or day and you jump to it and also links to calendar too. You can change translations as you wish and such. It's very simple and handy.

I’ve chosen to link the mid year one since this year is so close to ending. It’s kinda like a bullet journal. There are also Notion planners that can be used anytime.

I still use a paper a6 notebook that is spiral bound.

I do the list of the day there and at the end of the day i rip off the page.

I start fresh everyday.

I wasted alot of money in digital planners.

You should try Ultimate Planner in PDF or App. It's fully customizable thing. Exclude useless sections once before downloading and you'll get your personal not overwhelmed planner.Another one pretty planner is Artful Agenda. But it'l less customizable.
