If you’re a fan of digital paper, the ReMarkable tablet just got a serious upgrade that might make you ditch your paper planner for good—or at least stop buying new ones every January. The minimalist e-ink writing tablet famous for its distraction-free interface has rolled out a fresh batch of productivity templates designed to streamline your daily grind. Whether you're into bullet journaling, habit tracking, goal planning, or just keeping your chaotic week slightly less chaotic, ReMarkable now has a digital page for it. These new layouts are aimed at giving users more structure without clutter, maintaining the device’s core philosophy of simplicity. And yes, they’ve added everything from Eisenhower Matrices to Cornell note-taking formats. As WIRED puts it, “It’s an intentionally limited, distraction-free writing experience—but now with more structure.” That means more ways to actually plan your week without falling down a TikTok rabbit hole.
Key Points:
ReMarkable has added a large variety of new productivity templates to its tablet, offering new ways to organize and systematize your life.
Templates include popular productivity tools like:
The new templates are accessible through the device’s notebook creation tool and don’t require any software updates.
This update complements ReMarkable’s minimalist, distraction-free design philosophy—no web browsing, no app overload, just you and your thoughts.
ReMarkable is competing in a growing market of digital notebooks against the likes of:
While still on the pricier side—tablet starts at $299 with extras costing more—ReMarkable appeals most to hardcore note-takers and paper converts looking to go digital without digital distractions.
According to WIRED, ReMarkable’s upgrades reflect "a bigger trend toward meaningful digital minimalism”—tech tools that help you focus, rather than scatter your brain.
Fact Check & Contextual Info:
The ReMarkable 2 remains one of the few digital writing tablets that intentionally avoids typical tablet features like email, social media, or games.
Based on user forums and early impressions, many users appreciate these built-in templates, especially because previously some had to create or import their own custom-made versions.
The templates are available across existing and new devices, so no need to buy a new model.
Compared to competitors like Kindle Scribe—which added annotation and better pen support in recent firmware updates—ReMarkable continues to stand out for its dedicated note-taking experience and paper-like feel.
So, if you’ve ever felt more productive just holding a planner but wanted fewer pens and more cloud sync, this might be your moment. Who says structure can’t be simple?
That’s today’s byte from the digital desk—catch you next time for more tech that trims the noise.
