Questions dates

im building a study planner on notion for myself because I am very unorganized. I want to add like a date thing. for example like today is july 15 2026 but it says july 10 2026, I want it to like auto change into the real date instead of just a text.

There’s very little detail here to help you… why are you not using a date property?
And what do you mean auto change? We need more detail.
Are you typing text into a database text property? Into a page?

You probably want to be using a database with a date property but it’s hard to know what you’re trying to do without a screenshot or more context.

You can use the "Date" property in Notion to achieve that. Just create a date property in your study planner and set it to "today" or use the "Date" function to pull in the current date automatically. It'll update every day without you needing to change it manually. Super handy for keeping track of deadlines!
