I don’t know whether everyone is a traditional manual school or an electronic notebook school, or how are you used to taking notes when you are in class or meeting? Today I will share a note-taking software “Bear”, which can help you plan the big things and little things in your life if you use it right. Let’s take a look at the highlights and features of Bear
Bear currently only supports macOS, iPadOS and iOS and currently has a high rating of 4.7 in the App Store. Its interface is very simple and its operation is very intuitive. One of the biggest highlights is that you can add “tags” in the notebook, allowing you to quickly organize things big and small, projects, unfinished or in progress waiting for a clear classification
Next, let’s take a quick look at Bear’s interface and the commonly used tags in it. It’s similar to the memo built into macOS. When adding a note, you can enter a title at the top first. Only the title can be selected to be level one, level two, level three or simply not add a title. In Bear, you can use half-width punctuation marks to add grammar and make the whole note more organized, for example:
Bold → **type the text you want**
Highlighter → ::Type the text you want to type::
Italic → *type the text you want*
In conclusion → ~type the text you want~
divider → —————————-
TO DO → – [ 打上你想打的待辦事項 ]
In fact, the syntax of the above points can be found on Bear’s official website. Before using it, don’t forget to go to “Settings” >> “General” to enable “Markdown Compatibility Mode”
If you apply the above grammar to your notes, you can see at a glance the progress of the project or work and what needs to be done this week
The interface is simple and you can freely add any tag to annotate on the notes. These are the two main features of Bear in my opinion. After adding complicated things, it seems to become less scary. He secretly said that Haruko, the director of media, is a fan of Bear, and I only know this app because of Haruko! If you are interested in using Mac, you can try it
