GOODNOTES DIGITAL
PLANNER GUIDE
Welcome to Live Love Planners! My name is Christina and I just want to thank you so much for your
support! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any queries at all!

The Planner works best when used on a tablet/iPad with a stylus pen. This will give you the freedom
to annotate, copy, paste and do so much more with ease!

In the following pages, you will nd a user guide with step-by-step instructions on how to get the most out
of your digital planner. You are able to use this guide with most annotation apps, however, this guide was
created for Goodnotes.
