I’ve tried pretty much every web clipping app out there in pursuit of the perfect system to store and organize my research. Bear comes pretty close! The UI is simple and uncluttered (super important to me as someone with difficulties navigating busy designs). The nesting note system keeps all my notes and clippings well organized and easily searchable. Unlike other Markdown-based apps I tried, there was no learning curve—use was completely intuitive, so I could get to work right away. I particularly like the note menu design with its ability to assign an icon to each category—again, as someone who has difficulty navigating dense text designs, the icons provide a helpful identifier to help me quickly navigate to my most-used categories.

Как копировать текст как простой текст по умолчанию и не выбирать из меню?

大家都没发现吗,在文档操作复制选择笔记文本时,文本不停的向下或者上下滑动跳跃,根本很难选中需要的文本内容,真是烦死了,是重大BUG还是我的操作问题

Благодарю разработчиков за это произведение искусство! Это лучшее приложение которое только существует на телефоне. У меня экранное время на телефоне 95% занимает Bear - 7 часов в день. С каждым обновлением они делают все лучше и лучше, хотя казалась как, если и так все шикарно. Отдельно хочу поблагодарить их за огромную проделанную работу и то сколько лет они помогают огромному количеству людей! Пожалуйста продолжайте!

Beautiful, efficient, and versatile! This is a one-of-a-kind app that I’ve made an inextricable part of my daily flow. Truly, it’s a masterpiece of elegance in software design. My only hope is the devs keep focus, as its versatility is going to encourage adamant recommendations for all kinds of added functionality and integration that could easily pull the app in a thousand different directions. I include myself among the masses. I wish the devs would add integration with the native iOS apps, especially the calendar and reminders.
Amo este juego me encantó

랜덤 위젯 잘 쓰고 있습니다. 다만 추가 기능으로 랜덤으로 뜨게할 기간을 설정할 수 있게 해주시면 너무 좋을 것 같습니다.
