This is a finally a video with no fuzz and much ado, but professional and calm. I'm a new Bear user and already switched entirely to it. I am a lawyer working in the data security branch and need an extremly organized set-up. This video correspondend to my personal organisational needs. Thank you!
This is a very helpful video, as someone who has been using Bear for years without any tagging, this made it very helpful to get started with some much needed tagging
Thank you for the video. Apple Notes user evaluating Bear and have a few questions I haven’t found yet. Can I change the note creation date? And why lock a note? My understanding is Bear is E2E encrypted? Thank you.
Nice video! Thanks for taking the time to explain Bear. You mentioned that you use Spark for email. I also use Spark and while trying out Bear and the integration with Spark I noticed that the tags don't seem to work. When I assign a tag to an email I'm sending to Spark from Bear, the tag doesn't show up in Bear. Are you experiencing that too?
This looks fantastic Thanks for showing how it works too. You're absolutely correct in my feeling that Bear was lacking features. It seems to have precisely the type of features I've been looking. And now that you mentioned that you show how it integrates with Todoist, I'm looking forward to finding that video. My main productivity apps are Trello, Todoist and Apple notes (soon to possibly be replaced by Bear) I'd be excited to see how you use Trello, since I can very much relate with your lifestyle. If you do put together an organizational plan utilizing Trello I'd love to see how you set things up and use that one as well. Just an idea. Keep up the fantastic videos. You're awesome!!!
Just curious I’m an Apple note user. What does Bear give you that Apple notes does not? Backlinks for one and nested tags. Am missing anything else? Really trying to evaluate whether I should move. Thank you.
Overall this was a nice intro to Bear. You missed a small few things. Like the note count underneath each tag heading and using pound signs around tags with spaces in their name. It would have been nice to cover backing up and restoring notes. I do this periodically because I’ve put way too much work into them to lose my data. And maybe do another video on importing notes from other apps like Evernote, Apple Notes, and Obsidian using the tools recommended by Bear. I imported around 9k notes that hundreds of tags with no kind of organization since I made tags up on the fly with no consistency whatsoever. I’m going to be cleaning up my tags for months, if not years. Bear notes are nice, though I wish they had a separate editing view and reading view like other markdown apps.
Thanks for this tutorial! I was looking for a new notes app to start the year off right and I think Bear fits the bill. I'll def be coming back to this as I learn to use it.
Thanks, I am usually REALLY careful and good about catching that but missed it. The ones in the video are actually no longer valid but thanks so much for the catch. Guess I will have to triple check in the future..lol
