Overview
What Bear does
Bear is a markdown-based note-taking app for Mac, iPhone and iPad, with tag-based organization, document scanning and sketching.
The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Bear.
- Built for Apple hardware only, with no Windows, Android or web client
- Free tier is limited to 3 themes, 1 app icon and restricted export formats; iCloud sync requires Bear Pro
- Bear Pro is $2.99 per month or $29.99 per year after a 7 day free trial

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Bear, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it. Tell us if any of it is wrong.
