What is a digital planner?
Due to popular demand, we have created a digital version of our annual Personal Planners to help organise your life wherever you are! Similar to a traditional paper planner, a digital planner helps you manage your goals, tasks and important appointments.
Essentially, it is an interactive PDF file that can be written on using a tablet and a stylus. The kāi 2023 digital planner also comes with a set of digital stickers to brighten up your pages.
What are the functions in the digital planner?
We’ve kept the main functions of the digital planner close to our 2023 Personal Planner that you may already be familiar with, such as the Mood Tracker and Habit Tracker.
Here are some ways to take further advantage of a digital planner!*
- Use the internal hyperlinks, to make navigating between sections a breeze
- Add our digital stickers or your own photos, to brighten up the pages
- Start a new blank page using our templates (blank, lined, dotted, gridded), for your extra notes and reminders.
- Fill up the What a Year section as you create new memories, and you’ll have a wonderful archive to look back on at the end of the year.

How do I use the internal hyperlinks for navigation?
Here are all of our internal hyperlinks! Swipe to go from page to page, or simply tap on the internal hyperlinks on every page to jump between sections.
Take note that most note-taking apps will have two modes: View Mode and Edit Mode. If you're trying to tap a link but it's not working, chances are that you’re in Edit Mode. Switch to View Mode to navigate the document. Switch back to start writing!
E.g. Here’s the button in GoodNotes that will take you from Edit Mode to View Mode.
