Description
Been using Penly: Digital Planner & Notes for a couple months now. It’s basically an all-in-one app for planning, journaling, and taking notes. Pretty solid if you’re into that kinda stuff.
Here’s what you can do: there’s a bunch of built-in digital planners with hyperlinked pages, templates, and styles. You can also import your own PDFs and write on them. The handwriting recognition is pretty accurate and it’s got a smooth drawing experience with tons of tools. Oh, and you can create your own sticker collections too – that’s a neat little feature.
Look, if you’re into productivity and organization apps, you’ll probably dig this. It’s not perfect – the app can be a little buggy sometimes and the free version has ads. But overall it does the job and I’d say it’s worth checking out.
Editor Opinion
I've tested a bunch of digital planner and note-taking apps, and Penly is one of the better ones in my opinion. The interface is clean and intuitive, and the core features like handwriting, templates, and PDF importing work really well. It's not the most powerful app out there, but it covers the basics perfectly fine. And the built-in planners are a nice touch too. My only real gripe is the occasional bugs and the free version's ads, but those are pretty common issues. If you need a simple, all-in-one productivity app, Penly is a pretty solid choice.

App is great, but lost two stars because it *needs* dark mode and a way to bulk-import fonts (adding and sorting them one at a time is a PITA). Otherwise,...
