Bear - Markdown Notes Reviews

I love Bear

My favorite app for note taking!

Fantastic Evernote replacement

I never thought I can replace Evernote but Bear is my new Writing app.!

Never really cared for any note taking apps except Notes. Why? Because I didn’t feel it was necessary to use anything else. Wrong. I absolutely love Bear. It blow Agenda, Notes, and every other app in the note-taking category out of the water.

Simple, sweet, and heartwarming—just like a Bear hug

Love this Bear! It got all the details right without overloading or complicating itself. I downloaded (and deleted) many journal apps, and this one is clearly the winner! It does not hijack my style. Instead, it accommodates it and takes me in, all in all. Also, if you speak Chinese, I guarantee you this is the best Chinese writing pad app on the market.

Not private

This is app doesn’t encrypt your notes and also is not open source, so how is my notes private? Also I deleted the app a year ago, just reinstalled, where did all of my notes go?

Best Notes Experience

I’ve not found an application that’s more enjoyable to use than Bear. The way they’ve implemented their Markdown compatibility is beautiful, and the export options are fantastic. I’ve used a lot of note apps for extended periods of time, but this one consistently stands out in quality and support. It’s also very affordable compared to a lot of other services. There are some things that would make Bear better that don’t exist today (would be willing to pay more for implementation of all these features... dev time is expensive). - Ability to encrypt notes containing attachments - User settings option to encrypt all notes by default - Web version - Tables - Shared notes (multi-user editing) and tags (supporting other Apple ID accounts) - Custom column width on mobile - Dark mode for drawing & better drawing features - Theme template customization

Could easily be five stars!

This app provides a beautiful, distraction-free writing environment, which is much appreciated. But for the life of me, I can't understand why these developers won't let us sort our folders/tags in the left-hand column MANUALLY. This may come as shocking news, but being forced to sort things alphabetically or by date DOESN'T WORK for everyone! These are OUR folders... we should at least be able to structure them the way it makes sense to US. And WHY does it require so many unnecessary taps to create a new note? Whenever the sidebar is open, there is NO WAY to create a new note! Can't be done from there. You have to — for some unknown reason — open an existing folder first, and then the New Note button will appear at the bottom of the screen. Sheesh! Talk about inconvenient. I guess that's why I keep sticking with Ulysses. I prefer Bear's visual environment, but until they fix these issues, it just won't work at all.

So far, so everything I want and need from a notes app

My work requires that I encrypt my notes but couldn’t find anything capable of encrypting Apple Pencil-written notes. But then Bear comes along and gives me that plus beautiful formatting and synchronization across all my devices. Personally I’m not the biggest fan of tags as an organizational system, but I gotta say that Bear’s tag system is pretty intuitive to use! I also hate paying for any app, but the price is incredibly fair compared to some other apps. Give this app a try, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic ???

I have been using this app on my iPhone and mac for years. It’s awesome ? Search google for ScreenCastsOnline Bear and you will find a free fantastic tutorial for this app. I actually don’t use markdown I use this just for notes. By the way the syncing of notes between my mac, iPhone and iPad is perfect. Works like a charm Also searching for text in notes is really good. I can find what I am looking for lightning fast I love this app so much I pay for the yearly subscription.
