Looking for a PDF-LinkR alternative?
A fair, factual comparison. PDF-LinkR is a real option for linking planners; here is how PlannerHop differs and where it does not compete yet.

What PDF-LinkR is
PDF-LinkR is described as a desktop app for Mac and Windows that adds links (and dates) to any PDF, whatever tool made it. Tutorials also describe batch linking and a companion tool called LinkrSyncr. If you want a desktop app that links planners today, it is a direct option and worth trying.
How PlannerHop differs
| PDF-LinkR | PlannerHop | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | Desktop app (Mac, Windows) | In your browser; nothing to install, file stays on your device |
| Adds links today | Yes | Not yet; the linking tool is being built |
| Link checker | Not described in the material we found | Yes, free: dead links, wrong-month tabs, overlaps, tap size |
| Etsy file-size check | Not described in the material we found | Yes, free |
| App compatibility notes | See their site | Tested / untested / per vendor docs, never guessed |
Use both
