Artful Agenda 4+

I absolutely love this planner app. I’ve been searching for one that was like my paper planners. I’m obsessed with planners but the problem for me is that I don’t always have it handy. With this app, I figured out how to have it on my iPhone and on my Samsung tablet that I use for school. I am now able to see my planner on both and whenever I need it because I always have my phone and I can type to add/edit what I need to on my tablet with my tablet keyboard. 1000 times easier and more convenient!
I would love to see more sticker options! And I would like the packs to be labeled with names so I know what I’m looking for more easily. I’ve had this app for about a week and I’m still trying to remember what stickers are in what pack.
I’d also really appreciate being able to sort my lists into folders so they can be even more organized that just in a list that will end up going on for days!
It would also be super cool to see a tab for mood tracking or other types of tracking like habits and such and also for exercise routines.
All in all, this is the best and most affordable planner app that has everything I need including the sticker satisfaction and color coding events which is extra helpful for separating my school schedule from my daughters. Stop looking, this is the planner app you need and probably have been searching for too!

Hi Member of the GC Fam! Thank you so much for your kind review and your suggestions! We will pass these along to our team to consider for future updates. We're also so thrilled that you love the app!

I have been planning digitally for about 3 years now (via GoodNotes) and loved that I could use my Apple Pencil to write in a digital planner just like I wrote in my paper planner. But eventually, my calendars got to be so complex and things were constantly changing that I got tired of re-writing everything. I know that GoodNotes makes it easier with copy and paste, but still it got frustrating. Now with Artful Agenda my calendars automatically sync, tasks transfer from one day to the next, and you can even set up reoccurring tasks.

4 Stars not 5
My only hesitancy for not giving that 5th star to Artful Agenda is that you can’t customize the app as much as you can a paper planner/digital planner in GoodNotes. You can’t add “extra pages” or general notes. There is a List section but the organization isn’t great because you search through a long dropdown to find the list you are looking for. I would love to be able to import PDFs or even pages from GoodNotes so that I could use other template pages to track more in my planner than just my calendars & to do lists. For example, I have a weekly review template (in PDF form) that I would love to be able to link to and access from the Weekly view. Even just having a Notes section that I could link to from the Monthly/Weekly/Daily view would be great!

I am a die hard paper planner user who has been using a custom planner for a while, but it’s getting difficult to communicate with people about plans when I have to wait until I can get to my planner to answer them, so I decided to try again to find an app that would work instead. I tried 6 or 7 different ones before I landed on Artful Agenda. It is AMAZING! It does almost everything my paper planner does. My favorite feature, and the thing I couldn’t find anywhere else, is that it has to do list sections for each day, so I can go to Friday’s to do list and add something there instead of it showing up on just one master list. Other apps I tried all just had one to do list.
I’ve only been using it one day so far, but the only thing I would change at this point is the ability to add new daily list sections as needed. I love that it has 3 different lists for each day and that you can rename them; I think that will work fine for me; however, in my paper planner, I have sections for priorities, to do, errands, and a “Be Intentional” section where I write reminders for kind things I can do that day. I would love to have the ability to custom add more list sections in the daily tab. If that was a feature, as far as I can tell, this app would be perfect.
