Annoying to use.

Thought I would give it a try. Downloaded and played with it for 20 minutes. The markdown styles up is painfully aggravatingly to use. I don’t like the light style font, so I switch to bold. Don’t want to show the Markdown notes, so I switched them off in Settings. Nope… must need a double secret set of 6 step instruction to make that happen. I also want the bold text for the entire note. Nope! Must reset with Markdown for each line. I’ll just stay with Things3. Thanks for the free version before requesting payment. That was a nice touch. Update: 20 more minutes later Figured out how to change the font. Doesn’t appear that I can edit the default font on a previous note. Can’t seem to group my notes in any way, but that might take some more working with the app. Still not convinced it’s for me, but to be fair, I’ll bump up my review a couple of stars.

样式可以放到键盘首页吗?

文字的各种样式能否放到键盘首页来,不要隐藏在键盘右侧里,这样会多一个点击的步骤,寻找隐藏的样式,会打断我记录笔记的兴致。人们应该是专注于记录笔记/写作,脑子正流淌着思路,软件繁琐的操作就会打扰思维的腾飞。 希望可以优化一下,对于记笔记/写文字内容的人来说样式是很常用的功能,希望一键直达而不花几秒时间去找需要的样式。 可以参考下agenda 的键盘设计

My favorite notes app

My very favorite notes app and one of the very best apps I’ve ever used. The only thing I could ask for is an obsidian-like graph view. This app is so primed and ready for it by design. Having everything linked by tags (& now back links) means it already has all the data, it just needs the visual interface. Thanks for making the best app!! And I hope you’ll consider the graph. I’d love to see how you’d do it.

8-year Pro user, comes to an end

This app has always been my favorite. But since the latest update, there have been bugs galore. Both in iOS and macOS. Sorry bear, gonna have to move on now.

Finally moved everything to Bear!

Love that I can use Bear on all devices and on a local drive at work. I finally moved all my notes from Evernote to a Bear!

Very cool

I’ve been through a bunch of note taking apps, but this is by far my favorite. I can write using Markdown and then immediately send text to my blogs and work email. This is a very simple app in terms of its clarity — I’m not left scratching my head trying to figure out a bunch of jargon or a system that is overly complex.

Best Notes App Period

Apple notes is getting better and better with recent software updates. But Bear Notes has so many features that I want and look for . Its interface is so clean and easy too you . I’ve tried other note take apps and nothing works as well for me .
