Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Planner

• Use the hyperlinked tabs to jump between sections quickly instead of scrolling through pages.
• Back up your planner file regularly by exporting it from your app.
• Duplicate pages if you want extra copies of a layout you use frequently.
• Adjust your pen thickness and color to match your planning style.
