I spent months creating a digital planner with ADHD-friendly ideas in mind, mostly because traditional planners tend to stop working for me after a while 😭

At first I get motivated, then suddenly tracking things start feeling exhausting, and eventually the planner itself becomes another task.

So while designing this one, I kept thinking more about flexibility and reducing overwhelm instead of trying to create some hyper-productive perfect system.

I recently filmed a short walkthrough video for it and I’m currently working on an undated version, so I’d genuinely love feedback from people who struggle with planning too.

What makes planners feel manageable for you?
And what immediately makes you stop using them?

I also have a free version + survey if anyone wants to test it and share honest opinions.

As someone who most likely has ADHD (not diagnosed), I spent months making a digital planner for people with ADHD while most planners end up overwhelming me eventually 😭 at some point my brain starts seeing planning as a task, and then I spend more energy trying to make pages look nice than actually using the planner.

So while making this, I kept thinking more about what makes people stop using planners in the first place: overwhelm, complicated systems, too many things to track, etc.

And after 6 months of publishing it, I finally filmed a short walkthrough video for it, and now I’m working on updating the planner and creating an undated version based on feedback and real usage instead of just my own ideas.

So I’d genuinely love opinions from people here:
What makes a planner actually usable for you long-term?
What usually makes you stop using one?

I also have a free one-month version + a feedback survey if anyone wants to test it and be brutally honest about what works and what doesn’t.

Thanks in advance!
