About Bear
Bear is the calm antidote to feature-bloated note apps. Tags instead of folders, markdown that stays out of the way, and a focus mode that makes writing pleasant. At $3/mo for Pro it's the cheapest premium notes experience on Apple.
The cleanest writing experience on Mac and iPhone. The tag system is more flexible than folders once you learn it, and the price is absurdly low.
