Only note app

riku45100 on

The only note app that is required, once you start using bear you will never use another note app again, it is the only app that will never cancel the year subscription too. Thanks bear team.

Best note taking app

john doe seed on

Great design, superb system integration.

ICloud synching should not be a premium feature

Santtu Mikko on

iCloud synching is a native feature to iOS and should not be put behind a paywall, not sure why Apple approved this app. Greedy developers.

Simple but powerful

mko techno on

The best note app by far

It just works effortlessly

Franverdi on

I used to struggle with finding stuff: notes on a meeting, the address of a venue, the file that goes with an agenda, the email with instructions in it, the idea I had three weeks ago about a project, the thoughts I scribbled about a book I had read, the website I saw on an important topic. Bear helps me create all these notes and find them again later. It’s simple, and it just works.

My new Go-To Notebook

Real Jaakko L on

The ergonomics of usage in Bear are awesome. I don’t have to worry about syncing and the flow is so fluent while jotting down some notes and tasks. It may seem barebones and simple when you start using Bear. After a while you start to see the powerful features - for example the markdown support to format text and embedding pictures from other apps is so simple to use. It even has the capability to export notes and pages to another format which is nice. My only wish and idea for improvement is to add non-iOS use via web app, for example. I mainly use Mac or iPhone but sometimes I need to hop on a PC and can’t access my notes.

Creative nutcase’s best friend!

Lömmmö on

I searched far and wide for the perfect note taking app to use with my bluetooth keyboard. Bear turned out to be so much more! I can draft my storylines with moodboards and sketches, take notes on lectures, archive my art supplies and make mundane everyday task lists. On top of that it offers the perfect noise-free platform for keeping a simple diary. I have fallen in love completely!

Bear ruined me

Axoxx on

I've been trying to find then ultimate note taking app and happened to try Bear 1st after getting the iPhone. And after Bear, every other app just feels unpolished, slow, clunky. The fluidity and design is on point, and while it has a lots of features, every one of them is useful.

I give bear 5 stars

Trunio Le on

Because bear is awesome

Beautiful app

Ucugcjhc on

I love the simpe design and think this app is beautiful. The idea with the tags are good but I still wish there would be a possibility to do categories/files like in the notes app on my iPhone.. it helps with organizing your notes, in my opinion..
