How to use Digital Planner Inserts
What if you have a digital planner that you love but it doesn’t have a page that you really need? No need to buy a new planner – you can use digital planner inserts!
In this guide I’m going to share with you different methods to use them.
What are digital planner inserts?
Planner Inserts are single pages that you can paste into your planner and they usually come in PNG format, but you can also find some in PDF format.
PDF inserts are amazing because they’re not pixelated, however not all apps allow you to import a PDF into another PDF. In that case, you’ll have to use the PNGs.
Where to find digital planner inserts
If you already have a planner, I would suggest to check if the designer also offers planner inserts. That way the style will match your planner.
Another place where you can find planner inserts is Etsy.
If you’d like to, you can check the inserts from my shop.

How to use digital planner inserts
1. Find or create an empty page
First, you’ll need a blank page, which most planners already have.
If yours doesn’t have one, you can follow these steps:
- Duplicate any page of your planner.
- Take a screenshot and crop it to obtain a square with the color of your planner’s background.
- Copy or save the screenshot.
- Paste or import the screenshot and resize it to fill the entire page.
