10 Digital Products You can Make on Your Phone Today using Claude

If you've been thinking about starting a side hustle but keep telling yourself you need a laptop, expensive software or graphic design experience, this post is for you.

The truth is, your phone is more powerful than most computers from a few years ago. With free or inexpensive apps like Canva, ChatGPT, Pinterest and Etsy Seller, you can create products that people buy every day, all without opening a laptop.

These aren't complicated products that take weeks to make. They're practical, searchable and have the potential to become passive income once listed.

Here are ten digital products you can start creating today.

1. Printable Coloring Pages

Yes, I created this coloring page on my phone.

Cute colouring pages continue to be one of Etsy's biggest printable categories so don’t let having only a phone hold you back. Pages of animals, holidays, food, occupations, alphabet pages or seasonal themes do really well. You can create black-and-white line art using AI, or Canva, then sell it as an instant PDF download. Here is a helpful Canva tutorial . The coloring page was created using only a phone.

2. Printable Planners

Daily planners, chore charts, meal planners, budget trackers, cleaning schedules and habit trackers never go out of style. Canva has thousands of templates that can be customised in minutes.

People love planners that solve one specific problem rather than trying to organise their whole life. Here is a sped up tutorial for inspiration.

3. Wall Art Prints

Inspirational quotes, nursery prints, kitchen art, minimalist line drawings and seasonal décor are all popular printable products.

One design can be exported in multiple sizes (A4, A3, 8×10, 11×14, 16×20), giving customers more value without creating extra work. This is one the best tutorials out there when it comes to creating wall art. It’s very easy to follow even if you only have a phone.

4. Party Printables

Birthday invitations, cupcake toppers, favour tags, welcome signs, games and banners are products parents buy all year round.

Because every birthday needs decorations, demand never really disappears. If you really want to create these on your phone, get pre-made templates. Once you have templates for tags, signs, games, invitation cards, you can easily customise names, color and theme easily on a phone.

5. Digital Stickers

If you've ever seen people decorating digital planners on GoodNotes or Notability, you've seen digital stickers.

You can create themed sticker packs such as:

• Self-care

• School

• Productivity

• Holidays

• Fitness

• Cute animals

These are surprisingly quick to make once you have a style. Check out my popular post on making digital stickers. Everything I share there, particular about making stickers with ai will sure apply to a phone creator.

6. Phone Wallpapers

People love refreshing their lock screen each season.

Create wallpaper packs for:

• Autumn

• Christmas

• Neutral aesthetic

• Floral

• Coquette

• Minimalist

• Motivational quotes

One collection can include versions for both iPhone and Android. The best way to do this on your phone is to get free pictures from pixabay. Import theme into Canva, then use “image tools” to modify them to your needs.

7. Social Media Templates

Small business owners, content creators, social media managers are constantly looking for Canva templates they can edit themselves. These templates are pretty easy to create with the “bulk create version in Canva. But since we re working with our phone, we’ll instead create a tailored pack. Pick one audience/niche e.g fitness coaches. Now create a template for them, including

• Instagram posts

• Pinterest pins

• Facebook covers

• Price lists

• Product launch graphics

Once designed, the same template can sell over and over again with small design tweaks to the relevant theme.

8. Children's Activity Packs

Parents are always searching for inexpensive ways to keep children busy.

You can bundle together:

• Colouring pages

• Mazes

• Word searches

• Dot-to-dots

• I Spy games

• Scavenger hunts

• Matching activities

Bundles generally command higher prices than individual pages.

9. Checklists and Cheat Sheets

Simple products that save people time often perform surprisingly well.

Ideas include:

• Moving house checklist

• Wedding planning checklist

• Camping checklist

• Hospital bag checklist

• New puppy checklist

• First apartment checklist

• Cleaning checklists

They're easy to make and highly searchable.

10. Printable Games

Printable games are popular for birthday parties, baby showers, classrooms and family gatherings.

Examples include:

• Bingo

• Would You Rather

• Trivia quizzes

• Scattergories

• Emoji games

• Charades

• Treasure hunts

Many buyers purchase these at the last minute, making Etsy the perfect marketplace.

You Don't Need to Create Everything

One mistake many beginners make is trying to launch ten different shops with ten different products.

Instead, pick one category, create 10–20 products around that theme, and publish consistently.

For example, if you enjoy designing colouring pages, create enough to become known for them. If planners are more your style, build a collection that helps people organise different areas of life.

Small collections are much easier to grow than lots of unrelated products.

Final Thoughts

The biggest advantage of creating digital products is that you only make them once. After that, they can be downloaded over and over again without worrying about inventory, packaging or postage.

Even if you only have an hour in the evening after work or once the children are asleep, that's enough time to create your first product.

The hardest part isn't learning Canva or Etsy. It's deciding to start.
