Bear Bear-nefits

Bear is more than just a text editor. It’s also a task manager with an advanced search engine and a sophisticated tagging system. Plus, with a Pro subscription, it can be a very pretty text editor. Here’s how to bring more out of Bear.

Let Bear care for your tasks, it’s easy. To add tasks into a note, click the Pen icon on the bottom-right corner, then choose Todo to create a checkbox. You can also press Command-T or type - [ ] to do the same, while typing - [x] will create a marked checkbox. Notes with tasks will even have a little progress bar in the Notes pane.

Bear can find more than just honey. Use search operators to refine your search, like double quotation marks (“ ”) to enclose an exact search term. For example, searching for “Johnny Appleseed” will return results that only have both words and not just one.

If you’re already organizing notes with tags, try nested tags and multi-word tags. Typing a word after the hash sign (#) creates a single-word tag, but wrapping words with the sign, like #World Domination#, creates a multi-word tag.
