Hey Chuck! At the moment we still don't have an MCP for Claude specifically, but good news is we are exploring ways to make Bear more accessible. Stay tuned!

I’ve been using @bearnotesapp.bsky.social for the last few months and really enjoying it. Great, simple design, native apps on all Apple platforms, and a step up feature-wise compared to Notes.

I don’t know why I slept on it for so long.

Thanks for the kind words Kristoffer, glad to hear you are enjoying Bear 🐻❤️

Relatable

Happy Easter! 🐻🥚

Set your Random Note widget to a tag you love and see what “Easter Egg” your past self hid for you. 👀

#BearTips #HappyEaster

What a beautiful note you wrote! 😍

YOU WONT REGRET

You asked for a distraction-free writing environment. We finally built it.

Introducing our newest theme “THE Zen Mode”:

🤍 White text on a white background
🖱️ Completely invisible navigation
📎 Auto-transparent images and attachments

0% distraction. 100% focus. Try it now!

That being said, you can already write emoji as part of the tag, for example, you can write #🐻bear so the emoji is in the tag name, which will also be displayed in the Sidebar. Hope it helps! (2/2)

We thought about using emojis for TagCons, but we have a few concerns: Emojis are static images, so they don’t adapt to dark or minimal modes like native icons do. In addition, they look different across every OS and platform, so the consistency is an issue. (1/2)

At the moment we dont have plans to add PlantUML because it requires a Java-based engine that doesn't fit into Markdown based notes app. That being said, we'll look into alternatives in the future. 💪

#TagCon #Wanted The TagCon refresh is live, but we're already dreaming up the next batch! What's missing from your Sidebar?
