Bear

Hello everyone! I’m Danilo, one of the co-founders and lead developers at Shiny Frog. After our incredibly successful launch of the original Bear notes app on Product Hunt years ago, we are overjoyed to be back with Bear 2! 🐻‍❄️ What is Bear? Bear is a beautiful, powerfully simple Markdown notes app to capture, write, and organize your life. It has quick organization, editing tools, and export options to help you write and share anywhere, and it preserves your privacy with encryption. Getting started couldn’t be faster—no signup and no account. Just open a note and write naturally. ★ 2016 App Store App of the Year ★ 2017 Apple Design Award ★ App Store “Editors Choice” for 7 consecutive years 🐻‍❄️ What makes Bear unique? Say goodbye to chaotic note organizing, feature-bloated interfaces, and cluttered notes apps. Bear is designed for a seamless writing experience. Bear's four main values are: ✨ BEAUTIFUL: Elegant, clean and modern UX/UI design. The original Bear won an Apple Design Award in 2017! 🏷️ FLEXIBLE: A flexible tag system to organize notes. Friendly working with other apps. A wide range of export options 💪 POWERFUL: Native app. Blazing fast even with long text note. Fast sync using CloudKit. 100% Markdown support 🔏 SAFE: We have no servers and collect no data on your notes (only anonymous crashlog). End-to-end encryption for notes available with Bear Pro 🐻‍❄️ What’s new in Bear 2? Bear 2 is our largest update ever including 20+ all-new features like tables, Backlinks, ToC, and more. The journey to Bear 2 has been long, but we’re thrilled with how it turned out. Make sure to check it out on our iOS and macOS App Store pages! 🐻‍❄️ Thank you for your support! We sincerely want to thank everyone for all your support, and a huge thank you to our amazing hunter @chrismessina for all the help along the way. We are all ears for any feedback or thoughts the Product Hunt community has on Bear 2. ​ Thanks again! Danilo Bonardi 🐻❤️🚀

Long time Bear fan. Just tried the new Bear 2 update today. I love the new features (hidden markdown, table support). My notes are looking even better now! As a productivity geek myself, I try out many note-taking apps: Notion, Obsidian, etc. Bear is my daily driver. It's simple, reliable, fast and beautiful. Forget every other note-taking app and just use Bear.

This app is as close to perfection as any app I've ever used. Elegant, super fast, polished, just an absolute joy to use. I've used this since I graduated from medical school 5 years ago. 1629 notes later and all my work and life is catalogued in Bear -- using it right now to study for my final boards exam in two days. The v2 update is spectacular --- tables, image resizing, backlinks, everything you could want. The developers are true craftspeople who have created something remarkable.

In the top three of all macOS and iOS apps. A masterful attention to making a digital product as fulfilling as owning a physical product that you enjoy using every single time.

My congrats on the launch! And best of luck, guys!

Bear 2 is an impressive note-taking application that offers a seamless and intuitive user experience. The clean and minimalist design of Bear 2 provides a distraction-free environment, allowing users to focus on capturing and organizing their thoughts effectively. Awesome product! Congrats on the launch!
