Hi everyone!I got my ReMarkable with the main focus of writing, but I’ve discovered recently that I can actually use it for a lot of things! I recently downloaded a gratitude journal template/PDF and a budget template/PDF to use.
So, I wanted to ask; what are some things that you love to use your ReMarkable for? Are there any life hacks you use it for, like I did with the budget template?/PDF I want to expand my knowledge of the opportunities I have with my ReMarkable, so I figured this would help me to see what all I can use it for!
I use a personal journal, project and internal work notebooks, to do list, and a scratch pad. I also send presenter notes to it for meetings I’m presenting at, and keep it on a stand next to my main screen so attendees don’t see eye tracking. I’m thinking of adding a crossword and word find too when I find one I like. I make extensive use of tags to organize my work stuff.
I have a personal journal where I just wrote freely, a gratitude journal with like prompt where I write affirmations etc. A daily planner that has monthly, weekly and daily breakdowns where I write all my to dos (it’s like my paper version of my google calendar but with notes and lists) and meeting notebook where I take meeting notes and plan for upcoming meetings. I also have just plain notebook where I’m tracking various projects notes and certain situations where I need to keep notes on progress.
I bought a linked Notebook on Etsy, just to have a basic category system. I think it has 13 categories, and each Category has 20 pages by default, with links to each page. ~250 pages in total. And if you need to go massive, then you can use the sub-categories (single pages) as proper sub-categories, and add more pages after each sub-category, increasing the size indefinitely. Just that there are no links to the manually added pages, but that’s what the categories are for.
And some nice book covers and such, to make the front page look nice.
If I wasn’t using (and preferring) Obsidian as a knowledge-base-app, todo-list-app, and daily-journal-app, I’d probably also buy a calendar template. I’d most likely buy it from WHOLEHEARTED ME on Etsy, just because she also put in the effort to make over a hundred tutorial videos for reMarkable.
As to what other things I like to use the reMarkable for: Have you tried reading an e-book on it? It’s surprisingly good. I’m pretty sure it can’t do EPUB (not tested), but I’d say I prefer it over the iPad, just because it doesn’t have any brightness. It’s effortless on the eyes when reading a book for 3 to 4 hours.
