Bear Reviews

Stunning … and safe

Neil Hinrichsen on

South Africa

Stunningly beautiful, clear, powerful user experience - but above and beyond this, the best thing for me is that you can easily export all your notes in the standard Text Bundles format, so they can be imported into other Text Bundle apps if Bear retires - no more having all your carefully curated notes locked into a platform!!!

Brilliant and uncomplicated

I discovered Bear a few years ago and not only is it easy to use but it offers so many options for customization.

My Best App

Mickey_row on

Most used app across all devices. Love it. Just a beautiful experience 🐻‍❄️

Finally, proper organisation!

I love this app. No matter what I need to write for, what platform, what format, or what length, Bear has me covered. Thank you! Now I just need to stop typing notes for EVERYTHING 😅🤔

Too much information

Life is short.. enjoy it!!! on

South Africa

Bear seems like a successful app although it gives you a lot of information how can you keep it all in? The Bear app is too confusing to those who get the app for the first time. I do suggest it to other people but I don’t know how they will get it. I can’t even get it myself. It is a good thing that Bear has given a ‘how to use’ folder but I don’t know how anyone will be able to either remember it or understand it?! It’s just too confusing!! But I’m sure if someone or when someone understands it, it would be a great success and would be very helpful. Again, I do suggest it to others but only if they know someone who uses it and can’t explain it to them.

This app is perfect

I honestly have no issues with this app, it is perfect. Works well. The organization it provides is really straight forward but so powerful, I love using the tags and also linking my notes to each other is such a simple but amazing feature. The UI reminds me of a code editor like sublime text. I love it. I have been using this app for two days, and I’ve already shared it with the copywriters at my agency. Great work on this great app!

Great App....

Nice app but..

The Enchanted HQ on

It is really irritating that you have to pay for your notes to sync! It doesn’t say that in the description, but it says sync all your notes! But nice app!

Great app

SaintBaduski on

It’s a clean and simple looking app, very intuitive, the user experience is sublime beyond words and it’s ready for you from the get go

In love with this app
