Digital Budget Planner for iPad

What’s new in the world of budgeting? This digital budget planner for iPad! It’s designed to use with GoodNotes and your iPad and Apple pencil.

It’s paperless so no printing is needed and it’s flexible.

What is a Digital Budget Planner?

A digital budget planner is a planner designed to be used solely on your iPad with an Apple pencil. Some digital planners are hyperlinked, so you can click on a tab and jump straight to the page you need to get to.

It’s a PDF meant to be used with a PDF annotation app, such as GoodNotes (which is free to download in the app store).

Budgeting Made Easy Digital

In 2014, I created Budgeting Made Easy, my printable budget planner. My goal was to provide a colorful binder that would motivate you to stick to budgeting and an easy way to do it

It has been 10 years now and technology has changed! I created this digital budget planner to help you budget on the go, on your iPad.

If you’re familiar with my original Budgeting Made Easy binder, this digital budget planner has a similar design, except that everything is in Portrait mode.
