Self Journal (v5) GoodNotes & Notability App Template

Unusable

Imports fine, but the document is unusable due to how the author designed the pages. There’s an unnecessary duplicate 13-Week Bucket List page. The Month pages are laid out 4 days horizontally by 6 days vertically - what?! You can’t even view them two-pages side by side, though that wouldn’t solve the problem either. There are 8 of those for some reason. The Weekly Planning pages are all grouped together, and the Daily pages are separate. So you’ll constantly be flipping back and forth if you’re trying to plan your day based off your week. The quotes are only on half the daily pages, and they completely obscure the space for writing in the date. There are twice as many daily pages as needed. There are also twice as many weekly pages as needed, but only half have the bubble countdown at the bottom. So you’re left with a double sized 13 week planner, or a 26 week planner with half the goals pages you’d need, and it isn’t ordered like the paper notebooks where you have a weekly planning page followed by seven daily pages, times thirteen. I’ve tried in both Notability and Goodnotes and it’s the same problem.

Excellent tools at an excellent price

I've bought BestSelf items in the past and loved their products. While I enjoy a physical product, I tend to carry too much stuff with me. Having this as a downloaded product is just what I need!

LOVE the format, but links would be a delight!

This is probably my favorite planner so far - and believe me, I’ve tested a LOT of planners over the years! The one challenge I have with it is pretty unique to my use case - I use this planner with a digital notebook (Supernote - similar to ReMarkable) so the file format I have to use doesn’t have working links. I’ve worked around this by giving myself a cheat-sheet of page numbers where I need them so I can just input the page I need and jump that way, but having clickable links that work with digital notebooks would be *fabulous*
