Just started using Goodnotes and I'm a bit unsure if I'm really 'getting' it, or maybe it's just not quite for me 🤔. Everyone says it's the best app for digital planning, so I'm trying to figure it out. Does anyone else use Goodnotes? What are your thoughts?

... Read moreAs someone who recently started using Goodnotes, I can relate to the initial uncertainty about whether this app truly fits your digital planning needs. Goodnotes is praised for its flexibility, allowing users to annotate PDFs, create handwritten notes, and organize digital planners all in one interface. One feature I found especially helpful is the ability to customize notebooks with various templates, which adds a personal touch to digital planning. While transitioning from paper and pen to digital can feel overwhelming, the handwriting recognition and smooth note-taking experience make it easier over time. Goodnotes also supports employing multiple folders and subfolders for better document management, enhancing productivity. For those unsure about fully committing, I'd recommend exploring tutorial videos—many users post helpful content showing different ways to leverage Goodnotes’ capabilities for effective planning. Gradually incorporating digital tools alongside your existing planning routine might make the transition smoother. Overall, Goodnotes is not just for jotting down notes but can serve as a powerful digital planner tailored to your style. I encourage you to experiment with features like the lasso tool, shape recognition, and audio recordings to find what suits you best. The digital planning community around Goodnotes is vibrant, so seeking advice or sharing your progress can enhance your learning experience. Give yourself some time and curiosity—you might discover that Goodnotes is indeed the 'best app for digital planning' as many claim.
