Bear - Markdown Notes

#BearNews Bear is now on @bluesky ! Follow us for tips, updates, and paws-itively great vibes. See you there! 💙 bsky.app/profile/bearno… #BlueSky

@ShySuspect 3. We included those as a visual shorthand for specific workflows, like saving Medium blogs or organizing Swift code. They're meant to help categorize different types of content at a glance, but we definitely appreciate the feedback on offering more brand-neutral options!

* Personally, I would suggest removing that group of “brand-type” tags. Not everyone likes all of those brands. * Will this update involve any major data changes? For example, could it cause issues like the previous update, where all pinned notes were lost because of a bug?

Cool! @BearNotesApp ---- a Will these tags still work the same way as before, meaning they are automatically converted into their corresponding icons once matched? And for tags used inside notes, will they display the same icons as the matching tags shown in the sidebar?

@ShySuspect Hey! To answer your questions one by one: 1. Yes, and you can also assign them manually in the Edit Tag panel (Right click or long press on a tag in the Sidebar). 2. Yes, it will display the same TagCon in the editor. Learn more about TagCons: bear.app/faq/how-tagcon…

@Mauricio9952 Hey Mauricio! Currently no, because they are important to distinguish between these and the default ones even in Markdown format.

@BearNotesApp Hey bear team, is there a way to export notes as markdown without the color dots next to the highlighted part?

#update TagCons, redesigned. Learn more about Bear 2.7 update: blog.bear.app/2026/03/bear-2…

@HSchiefelbein Tagcons are the pairing icons next to the tags in the Sidebar. Learn more about how TagCon works: bear.app/faq/how-tagcon…

@BearNotesApp Honest question: why are they called Tagcons and not just tags?

Wow! Just started using @BearNotesApp What a fast and flexible app, on all my devices. Great!! 👍

@spinstok_38 Glad you like it! We are always here if you need any help 🐻❤️

@spikeinthemood Plenty of ways to find your Bear notes and we are glad you have found the one that suits your workflow! 🙌

@BearNotesApp You’re the last bear 🐻 standing who hasn’t given up on Spotlight. Every other bear 🐻‍❄️ has already migrated to Raycast and raycast.com/hmarr/bear.

#BearTips A tiny time saver: Search your Bear notes from Spotlight and jump straight to the one you need. 😌

@ShySuspect Thank you for the feedback! We'll take it into consideration for future theme creating 🐻❤️

@BearNotesApp Hello, I have been using Bear for a very long time, almost since it was first released. Over quite a long period recently, I have had the impression that there have not been many new themes released or updated.

I love seeing the @BearNotesApp icon inspired by @BasicAppleGuy

@shawnoncall Thank you for the feedback. At the moment we don't have plans to add tabs for Bear, but these tips may help: 👉 You can open notes in a separate window and switch between them bear.app/faq/open-bear-… 👉 Use shortcut to navigate viewed note history x.com/BearNotesApp/s…

@BearNotesApp I wish you had tabbed windows like other apps. I can not write in a flow by switching through windows. No tabs creates writing friction.

Hello MacBook Neo! Nice choice of apps there 👀🐻 #Spotted

Happy #InternationalPolarBearDay! Today’s guide on how to be more like a polar bear: 💡 Hide your Sidebar and Note List to focus on the hunt (for ideas) ❄️ Set your Bear theme to “Duotone Snow” and your icon to “Arctic” 🐾 Go wild! 🐻‍❄️❤️🐻‍❄️

#update Bear 2.6.7 is on the way: Lots of bug fixes with two handy additions: 🏷️ Collapse/expand all tags in the Sidebar (Mac) 📒 A new “Get Last Viewed Note” action for Shortcuts Enjoy! 🐻❤️

Happy Chinese New Year! 🐴🧧🎉 May your thoughts run wild, and your writing carry them forward. #HappyCNY #HappyWriting

Say less. 😉 #AppStoreReview #thankyou

@calm_owl @emoXcoder @miniddrie We have been polishing the Web Beta. Come and take a look! community.bear.app/t/getting-star…

@emoXcoder @miniddrie я вот вспомнила щас, что довольно долго пользовалась @BearNotesApp, но так и не дождалась, когда они сделают веб версию, но это вот было наверно самым удобным из того, чем я пользовалась больше пары недель

потратила полчаса чтобы найти какое-нибудь приложение для удобной организации конспектирования, чтоб всё можно было легко искать и синхронизировать, потом вспомнила, что на бумаге обычно веду заметки в формате "где тетрадь открылась, там и пишу, перечитываю примерно никогда"

@deszip Hi! Currently we don't have plans to add support for tabs. For Split View support.apple.com/en-tj/guide/ma…, the detached Bear window should work well with it. Let us know if you come cross any issues!

Hey @BearNotesApp , any plans to add to macOS app support for tabs and Split View? Would be nice to have (for me at least :) ). P.S. Ready to play with early build :)

#BearTips One of those tiny things that saves a few keystrokes: 1️⃣ Select some text 2️⃣ Press ” 3️⃣ Ta-da! Quotes on both “sides” Works for inline code and brackets too! Try it once and see 😉
