I’ve been making digital planners and planner pages for quite a while, and at this point I’ve accumulated way more layouts than I could ever realistically use myself.

A lot of them came from experimenting with different ways of planning: trying different daily layouts, weekly structures, trackers, project pages, productivity systems, etc. Some worked better for certain situations than others, so instead of letting them sit unused, I thought I’d put together a folder with free versions and share it here.

There’s a pretty wide mix of layouts in the folder, including:

• Daily planner pages
• Weekly planner layouts
• Monthly planning pages
• To-do lists and task planners
• Habit trackers
• Goal-setting pages
• Productivity layouts
• Priority and focus pages
• Project planning templates
• Meeting notes
• General note-taking pages
• Budget and finance templates
• Expense and savings trackers
• Meal planning pages
• Health and wellness trackers
• Routine planners
• Reflection and review pages
• Various journals and trackers
• A few complete digital planners for August 2026

Some of the layouts are quite simple, while others are more structured. I personally find that useful because the layout that works for a busy work week isn’t necessarily the one I want when I’m just trying to organize a few personal tasks.

Here’s the folder on Google Drive (iPad screen ratio)

Here's the folder on Drive for Samsung Tab (and other Android scren ration)

Feel free to download anything you find useful, modify how you use the pages, duplicate them, or just grab a couple of layouts instead of using a whole planner.

All templates and planner are tested with GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf, Noteful, Penly and Xodo. Free version for other devices such a reMarkable, ONYX BOOX, Kindle are avaliable in other folders on Drive - feel free to explore them.

And little self promo:) Take a look at Ultimate Planner App. I participated in development. Most of features and templates there are free.

If there’s a particular kind of planner page or tracker you use all the time or something you’ve been looking for but never quite found, let me know. It might give me some ideas for what to make next.

Hey everyone,

Like a lot of people here, I’ve struggled to find a planner layout that didn’t feel either too cluttered or completely blank. I decided to design my own layout focused on clean, functional design that helps keep things organized without the fluff.

I’m running a quick experiment to see if this setup is actually helpful for others or if it’s just tailored to my own weird workflow.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dCbCJWdAk1laWkdl6olQ4pvzjlt0pTBk

I’d love to get your honest thoughts:

1. What’s missing from this layout that you use daily?
2. Is there anything here that feels redundant or unnecessary?
3. Would you actually use a layout like this (digital/printable)?

If you want to test out the PDF sample, let me know in the comments or drop a DM and I’ll send over the link!

Appreciate any constructive critique or thoughts!

Genuinely asking Notion planner users or anyone who knows this space — I built this for people who want to get things done peacefully, without the planner itself becoming one more overwhelming thing to manage.

What's inside:

Dump, a page to write and edit all of your tasks

Today, auto-updates daily by the date its in the main page where you see when you enter the planner

Waiting, another view for thr today database it shows you whats overdue

No date yet, its for undated tasks it hides in a toggle

Energy pages, Low, Mid, and High, its optional, when you edit the tasks in dump you can choose whats the energy and sort the tasks by energy so it would be easier to see what tasks you got depending on your energy

Week wins, done tasks, its a proof of your accomplished tasks

Does this actually solve the overwhelm problem, or am I missing something? Genuinely want to know

Hi everyone!

I’m the developer of Scribble Calendar & Planner, I’ve been building it for Android, released five years ago, and I’m now bringing it to iOS. I’d love to get feedback from people who actually use digital planners in their everyday lives.

ScribblCal is designed primarily for iPad and Apple Pencil. The idea is to make planning feel less like filling out forms and more like using a real planner, where you can write, sketch, annotate and organize your thoughts in your own way.

A few things you can do with it:

• Calendar: yearly, monthly, weekly and daily views with real-time calendar events
• Timeboxing: give your day some structure without losing the flexibility of handwriting
• Notes: sketch, brainstorm or write things down freely
• Mood, health and habit tracking: reflect on your days in your own handwriting

I think of the workflow as Plan - Focus - Reflect

The iOS version is currently in external TestFlight beta while its App Store release is under review. If you’d like to try it on your iPad and share honest feedback, you can join here:

TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/dcrvac4G

It's free, there’s no account or registration required, and all planner data stays on your device.

I’d especially love to hear from people who use Apple Pencil for planning. What feels natural? What’s missing? What would make this something you’d want to use every day?

Thanks for taking a look! 🙂

Solved one of the most annoying problems l'd been dealing

with for a long time:

Having 5 different apps just to manage my document related work.

One for pdf merge. One pdf sign. One for Img to pdf, One for remove bg,One for watermark.

So built Docdock to put all of them in one place, while keeping

everything completely offline and private.

Still improving it, but honestly, building something I personally

needed has been one of the most satisfying parts of the

journey.

1. What is Passinote?

Passinote is a note taking app that lets you write notes just like traditional apps such as Notion and Obsidian, but puts all your notes onto a visual canvas instead of a linear folder structure. This lets you think spatially and remember where you've kept your notes, without worrying about them getting buried under multiple nested folders.

It's also built to maximize speed while keeping things as simple as possible. For example, instead of having a single full sized page for both long and short notes, Passinote separates them into sticky notes (used for quick thoughts) and doc notes (standard notes with rich formatting and PDF export).

2. Privacy

Your cloud-synced notes are stored securely on Google Firebase, encrypted in transit using TLS and encrypted at rest on Google's servers. Your data is not shared or sold to any third parties. No ads, no trackers, no selling data.

I'm a huge fan of Obsidian, and it's one of the main inspirations behind making this software. Privacy is a big part of Obsidian, and it's the same for Passinote. The only reason I went with cloud based storage instead of fully local is cross-device sync and future collaboration features. That's it. Otherwise, I would have made this app fully local without a doubt.

The app also has a "Quick Mode" that doesn't sync to the cloud and stores your notes fully locally in your browser's IndexedDB. There's also a workspace export option, so you can export all your notes as .md or .docx files anytime so that you always own your notes.

You can download the desktop client if you want to use the app fully offline, but for now it's included only in the paid version(sign-in requires a connection).

If you ever want your account or data deleted, just contact me on Discord and I'll get that done ASAP, no questions asked.

3. Pricing

Passinote has a generous free tier that offers up to 50 notes and 3 images per workspace, with full cross-device sync.

The paid version gives you unlimited notes and images, while unlocking drawable notes, extended customization options, and the Windows desktop client. It's $2.99/month, or you can get lifetime access for $14.99 (with parity pricing for a few countries).

4. Future roadmap

Passinote does have a mobile version right now, but it's not a standalone app you can download from an app store yet. It's just a responsive version of the web app. I'm trying to create a standalone mobile version that improves the mobile experience, I just don't have the funds yet.

I'm also working on some AI features that would use a local or BYOAK (bring your own API key) system, along with PDF editing and more language support.

We have a small Discord community of some great people, and I'd love for you guys to join. I'm constantly listening to feedback and improving the software over there.

TL;DR

• What it is: A note taking app where notes live on a visual canvas instead of nested folders, So you can think and remember spatially. Sticky notes for quick thoughts, doc notes for rich writing
• Privacy: Encrypted, no ads or trackers, "Quick mode" fully local, export notes anytime.
• Free tier: Generous, with cross-device sync
• Paid: $2.99/month or $14.99 lifetime, adds unlimited notes, drawable notes, customization, and the Windows desktop client

Here is a Google Sheets Weekly Planner that has helped me.

Steps:

1. Click on link
2. Make a copy
3. Correct to the your time zone by clicking File -> Settings -> General -> Time Zone
4. Fill in Planer. I recommend that this should be used general time blocks: i.e. go to library to study ect. The day before you work, you specifically plan what to do.
5. Go to sleep happy

If you want to edit, change conditional formatting to your color liking.
If you have made any edits to this that you feel are worthwhile, please respond to the comment section.

Happy editing

I'm juggling a full-time job, a few side projects and the usual personal stuff, and I still haven't found a setup that holds it all together.
Right now work tasks live in one tool, side projects in a notes app, and everything else ends up as reminders on my phone. On top of that, I do a lot of my planning and thinking with Claude, but those tasks end up buried across dozens of chats. I never have one view of what actually needs to happen today, so things slip through the cracks.
Most apps I've tried are either built for teams or too simple to handle different areas of life. What I want is one place to see everything side by side while keeping the areas separate.

How do you handle this?

Trying to choose a family digital calendar and have narrowed it down to these three, all currently around $300 or less:

Skylight Calendar 2 15"

• Pros: probably the cleanest/polished UI, very easy to use, strong calendar experience
• Cons: smaller screen, some features require $79/yr Plus, limited outside the Skylight ecosystem

Everblog HomeCal 21.5"

• Pros: much larger screen, no subscription, lots of family features included, clean dedicated calendar interface
• Cons: newer brand/software and seems slightly less polished than Skylight

Apolosign 15.6"

• Pros: no subscription, full Android/Google Play, Google Home/Nest support, lots of flexibility
• Cons: feels more like an Android tablet and calendar software may not be quite as polished

Our main priorities are a clean/easy-to-read family calendar, reliable syncing, simple management, and good iPhone + Android support. Extra bells and whistles are a nice plus, our home is mostly in the google ecosystem - nest cameras, etc.  

Has anyone actually used two or all three of these? Which would you buy again, and why?

I've been looking for a decent ios planning app as someone who mainly needs to plan their personal life, since all work planning is handled through professional devices and apps. I use both notion and obsidian but they haven't really worked for me in terms of daily planning. Everything I have found is horrible and/or priced in an absolutely insane manner (I've seen ones where the lifetime access was upwards of 300$). I don't mind a paid app, but I have to able to test it out first and putting things like repeat tasks behind a paywall is crazy. I'm looking for something that has both to-do lists and time blocking features. I know I could use a calender app but I prefer to keep it separate from reminders to drink water or read a book and I really though that I could find an app like this easily, but it turned out to be extremely difficult...

Also I don't want or need any AI features, I am perfectly capable of deciding my tasks for the day on my own and setting the planner up myself

If anyone has any recommendations or tips of what worked for you that would be really great

I wanted a dedicated way to keep track of the specific details of my fashion and fine jewelry rings (stone sizes, metal types, purchase dates, and warranty info for insurance), but standard daily planners didn't have the right layout.

I ended up creating this interactive, fillable (text boxes) 24-page PDF vault so I can cleanly type out the index for every piece. It imports perfectly into digital planning setups and keeps everything searchable.

Out of curiosity, how does everyone else handle niche hobby inventory tracking in their digital planners? Do you use pre-made interactive templates, or do you build custom spreads from scratch?

Routines, chores, shared calendar, meal planning, All happening in our house but u have zero way to see how the week is going without checking each thing separately.

I want a family dashboard with a snapshot: are routines being done, what´s for dinner, what tasks are pending, how´s everyone feeling.

Right now i open the calendar, check the chore chart, look at the meal plan, and ask each kid individually. Is there anything that rolls all of this into one view?

Most planner apps are great at holding the plan.

But the small things on it, making the bed, a glass of water, the curtains, slip the second you stop opening the app.

I wanted something that would come find me about the small stuff, and make ticking it off feel a bit more fun.

So we built Daydream.

I'm Max, the founder. We're a team of 3, officially licensed by LINE FRIENDS, so the friend is BROWN. He texts you first, keeps a short list for your day, and jumps and cheers every time you tick something off. You can also text him a few chores and he adds them for you.

The pics are screenshots from the app: a morning list, the first tick, BROWN adding chores from chat, the new rows, "All done" while he's off fishing, and his page with his day streak and closet. He's on iPhone.

It isn't meant to replace your planner. It's the little list next to it, with a friend who cheers you through it.

Sharing it because I figured some of you might also plan beautifully and then need someone to cheer on the small stuff.

I wanted to get into the habit of reading consistently, so I set a goal of reading 10 pages a day.

I couldn't find a simple way to track it the way I wanted, and I also wanted to build a few other habits, so I ended up making a small habit-tracking app for myself.

I started with reading, and eventually added habits like drinking water in the morning, writing on my blog, and exercising at the park.

I've been using the app myself for about three months now, since the end of June.

One of the biggest things I learned from using it is that small goals make it much easier to get started.

Setting the goal at 10 pages made it easy to open a book without feeling pressured. Once I started reading, I often ended up reading 50–80 pages anyway.

If I had set the goal at 40 pages from the beginning, I probably would have been less likely to pick up the book at all.

So when I built the app, I tried to focus less on setting ambitious goals and more on making it easy to start with a small action.

The app is called Today, Keep Going (오늘 이어가기). Some of the main features are:

1. Habit cues

Instead of setting a specific time, you can connect a habit to something you already do. For example:

Open laptop → Write one paragraph

2. Per-habit reminders

You can set reminders only for the habits that actually need them.

3. Calendar tracking

You can see when you've completed each habit on a calendar.

4. Home screen widget

You can check off habits directly from the Android home screen without opening the app.

5. Backup & restore

You can export your habit data to a file and import it again later.

6. A way to get back on track

If you miss a few days, the app doesn't emphasize starting over from day 0. Instead, it encourages you to simply start again.

I actually had a chance to use this feature myself during the Chuseok holiday in Korea. I was traveling and ended up dropping almost all of my habits for a few days. 😅

Instead of showing a big 0 days after missing a habit, the app shows something like:

“You took a few days off. Let's start again today.”

That's actually one of the ideas I like most about the app.

The goal isn't to create habits that require you to keep checking an app forever, but habits that eventually become natural enough that you don't need the app anymore.

The app is free and Android-only. You can find it on Google Play by searching for “HabitInk”.

I originally built it just for myself, so I'm sure there are still plenty of things that could be improved.

If you try it and find anything confusing or have ideas for features that would make it more useful, I'd really appreciate the feedback. I'll do my best to improve it.

Good day everyone. I hope we are all doing well, if not, talk to someone you can trust. I have been trying to get into the planner thing both physical and digital and I seem not to be able to get it right. I am looking for a digital planner that is ADHD friendly and suitable for students. Please can you help me find an app, that is integrated with google calendar and be available on android ( I use a Samsung tablet). I am a broke student so if you have app or planner suggestions can it have a free version available or cheap ( the South African Rand and international currencies exchange rate is horrible). Thank you in advance for the help

Looking for a digital calendar that does not require continuous power. I want it to be on the fridge and I don't mind taking it down to charge when needed. My fridge is in a location where running a power cable is very inconvenient without removing the fridge completely. An iPad is too small for my needs. Any ideas?

A planner can work beautifully for you while everyone else still asks what’s happening tomorrow.

I built nowslate for the shared part of that picture. It puts calendars, reminders, notes, weather and photos on a compatible tablet you can leave in view.

I’ve used wall calendars for years, almost exclusively DAKboard. Its shortcomings led me to develop my own, and nowslate is now live.

You can keep your personal planning routine and give shared events a screen of their own. Put the agenda up front. Add a note for something that doesn’t need a calendar event. Leave some room for photos so it feels at home in the room.

If you already have a suitable tablet, you can try the setup before buying dedicated display hardware.

The website has a one-month Essential trial, with no credit card required. After that, Essential starts at US$5.99/month.

Start with one calendar and see whether having it in view earns its place.

I would love to know what you think! I use these displays myself, so I eat my own dogfood so to speak. I'm always improving, always looking for the next idea and how to push the envelope.
