FAQ
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Q: Does this work in Google Sheets and Excel?
A: Yes. You get an Excel workbook and a Google Sheets link (via the Access Guide). Use whichever you prefer — no subscription to YamCo.

Q: How do I download and open it?
A: After purchase, open your Etsy Purchases (or confirmation email) and download the files. Start with the Access Guide PDF — it has the Google Sheets button and any backup link. Then open the EXAMPLE file before the blank.

Q: Can I use it on my phone?
A: You can view it on a phone, but setup and day-to-day typing are much easier on a computer or tablet. The Sheets / Excel mobile apps hide some features — we recommend a laptop or desktop for the first setup.

Q: Is this for personal use only?
A: Yes — for personal use only. Please don't share the download link or resell the files.

Q: What's your refund policy on digital files?
A: Digital files can't be returned for a change of mind once downloaded, so please check the details and preview before buying. If a file is faulty or doesn't match the description, message us and we'll fix it or send a replacement. If we can't fix it, or there's a major problem, you can choose a refund instead. This doesn't affect your rights under your local consumer law.

Q: Where should I start so it isn't confusing?
A: Open the EXAMPLE file first (about 2 minutes) — it's filled with sample data so you can see how it works. Then open your blank file and type only in the soft cream cells with a dark edge — everything else is protected. Start Here is the first tab.

Q: Where do I type?
A: Type only in the soft cream cells with a dark edge — everything else is protected.

Q: Does it include visa or tax rules for my country?
A: No. The planner holds no country-specific visa, tax or customs facts. Tasks remind you what to check with official sources. No live exchange rates — you enter your own rate.

Q: Is there a video walkthrough?
A: [YouTube how-to — add when live]
