This $23 AR-powered planner is *almost* as magical as Tom Riddle’s diary
Digital note-taking is not everyone’s cup of tea. Many people still enjoy the tactile feel of pen and paper and the act of putting ink on a fresh pad. (Plus, numerous studies reveal that the physical act of writing aids in improving learning and memorization). If you’re a Notes app skeptic, you might find yourself joining the resistance and clutching your pen and paper for dear life. While everyone else is living the paperless life, you opt to scribble on countless post-its and jot down notes on journals instead.
But since we’re living in 2018, and the bulk of our work is now digital, you might find it increasingly difficult to work solely on paper. You sometimes even have to digitize what you have written, a process which is both arduous and redundant.
Fear not: the Slice Planner is here to bridge the gap between digital and analog. It’s a computer vision and augmented reality-powered planner that digitizes your notes to give you the best of both worlds. We’ve already covered this seemingly-magical planner before, but for a limited time, the Mashable Shop is offering it for 34% off, dropping the price to just $22.95.
Check it out:
You know how in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when Harry writes something on Tom Riddle’s diary, it answers back and suddenly transports him to the past? Well, Slice Planner might not give you a glimpse of another dimension, but it transfers your notes and events across all your devices via the accompanying app, so you have all-around access. The AR mode even alerts you when you have conflicting schedules so you can avoid double booking yourself. And with the smart crop feature, you can save a specific piece of writing drowning in a sea of random scribbles. Just draw a line or shape around it, and the Slice app will only capture the traced section which you can then copy to your calendars, emails, the cloud, and other apps.
With a variety of different pages including monthly spreads, daily planning, daily goal setting, notes, and yearly reflection, this planner can help you get it together before you even make a New Year’s resolution to do just that.
Get your hands on the Slice Planner in your choice of color — steel gray, charcoal, coral orange, and navy blue — for only $22.95, 34% marked down from the original cost of $35.
