Why does my planner flip over on my phone?
In one-page view, turning pages alternates between turning a sheet on the rings and turning the whole planner over.
On a phone, and whenever your planner shows one page at a time, turning pages works like reading a real spiral planner. One step turns a sheet over on the rings. The next step turns the whole planner over, because that sheet is now on the far side of the rings. Then it repeats.
That's why the rings seem to switch sides from page to page: in a real planner, they do. Next always sweeps to the left, and Previous to the right.
Everything printed on the page, like the tabs along the top and the month tabs, turns with it.
Some steps keep you on the same side of the rings, such as picking a tab along the top while a left page is showing. Then a single sheet swings over the rings the way you're going, and the rings and the tabs stay where they are.
Good to know
There's no setting to turn the page animation off.
Tip
To see two pages side by side, open Planner settings and choose Two-page spread under Page Layout. See See one page at a time or a two-page spread.
