Clever Fox Daily Planner 2.0, Undated Hourly Time Blocking, A5 Mystic Blue

This is the third journal I’ve purchased from Clever Fox. I admit that at first I bought it partly because I love foxes (or at least that’s part of why I chose them over other brands) and I really like the logo and general design, including page layout. I do think I’d like a few extra blank notebook pages in general, but other than that I really like the way it’s laid out and the quality of the construction is really good. The print layout of the page is also high quality and I didn’t notice any problems in terms of misprinting or anything like that. Whether I actually use it as consistently as I should…? Well that’s my problem. It also comes with a bunch of very cute stickers and I will note that the female figures included in the stickers actually have some black woman which was nice to see representation. This time I bought the book because I am 7 months pregnant and I want to get my planning together as I’m getting ready for my baby to arrive. I can imagine as time goes on I will probably continue to buy more Clever Fox products.

If you are planning to have things in a schedule, this planner will help you achieve your goal. There are planners for ADHD, but this one is great for me.

I have been buying this planner or one of its various versions for years now. I have tried others, but I keep coming back. I’m not going to lie and say I use all the silly little boxes or stickers or anything like that, but all the space gives me the opportunity to use it how I see fit. I don’t romanticize using a planner like I know some of my peers do, but I’ve been known to color code on occasion. It’s highly effective for people who might suffer from time blindness because of the half hour blocks. I can physically block out things like “put on makeup, do hair, and get dressed” and see that it’s taking a half-hour of my time. I can block off commutes and trips to the grocery store and see how much time I have left in my day. Don’t get me wrong, there are still not enough hours in the day, and I’m certainly not following my plans to a T, but it helps me see what is possible and how to most effectively use my time. Having a place that can help me effectively plan workouts, meals, dog walks, and hold all of my mundane to-do lists is a lifesaver. When I was in school and working, this planner and I were inseparable. It’s a little thick, sure. But a slightly bigger bag never hurt anyone.

I bought this planner, thinking it would help me keep track of short and long term projects and goals, as well as appointments and birthdays. While the leather cover is lovely and the interior pages and stickers are great quality, my ADHD brain finds it too overwhelming to utilize. Having to lay out details on a handful of different pages makes it difficult for me to pull the information together and rely on it regularly. It would be excellent for someone who doesn't have executive functioning issues.

I absolutely love this planner and recommend it to everyone I know. It is my 4th time buying the daily clever fox planner. It was instrumental in keeping me organized during my PhD. This is a great planner for people who like to self-reflect on their productivity. I wanted to try the 2nd edition of the daily planner as the biggest difference is that the monthly calendars are interspersed through the planner (after every few weeks and they are color coded). I think this option is great if you start at the beginning of the month. However if you’re like me and follow the academic calendar, you’ll have a few odd weeks before or after the dedicated color. It doesn’t bother me though! The new stickers are also very cute. My biggest complaint is that these calendars are only 6 months. I with there was a 12 month daily planner.

I suppose I should have looked at the dimensions a little closer. I was hoping for a much smaller book. This is not that. I like this company’s products, I’ve purchased several. This is like the size of a book. I was hoping for something to hold in my back pocket. This is not that.

I am a bit of a Planner Hoarder. I don’t know what it is about them (and Journals) but I’m obsessed. I have been looking for a very long time for something that would able me to track my work and personal life… this fits the Bill. I really like how the layout is set up, the month, the tasks and the daily… the color I chose is gorgeous. I am not a person that can put everything into my phone or tablet and trust I will get the notification, so writing it down is essential for me. It is a bit thick, but that is expected when you want a daily planner. Would I recommend? Absolutely yes…. It looks more like a “book” vs a bulky planner which is what I love. Stickers are cute too…

I am a scatter brained person with many project threads, and my planner is how I keep all the plates spinning. After trying way too many planners, I found one that worked perfectly : the Dapperdesk planner from Emily Ley. It was not spiral bound, it had monthly pages, and every page included both a time blocked schedule, a to-do list and a place for notes. After being a faithful user for four years, I misplaced my precious planner four months into this year and have been lost since. But two months of searching led me to this daily planner, and it has everything I loved about the Dapperdesk, plus being less expensive, arriving with stickers and coming in plenty of colors. It's perfect! I think I won't need to worry about catching my Dapperdesk planner on launch day any more.... I'm a Clever Fox Daily Planner convert. Thanks for designing this amazing product!

Love the clever fox planners. Only one i buy for the last 6 years

Love this planner as compact but has everything I need in it. Helps me plan and organise

Hermosa ! Para mí , de excelente calidad, muy bien empacada , viene en una caja dura para poderla guardar , la volvería a comprar

Perfect all round diary. Helps me keep track of both work and personal tasks. Also great for planning ahead and really thinking about what I would like to be/do/have. It is quite bulky but in A5, as a page a day it works well.

Excellent planner
