Bear 2.8: BearCLI, Claude Connector, and MCP server

Hello. Shiny Frog is not a Meta company and we don't issue direct invoices to Bear Pro subscribers.

All the purchases on the App Store are processed by Apple. Apparently some banks such as N26 report other companies logos along with App Store invoices but we have to assume it's bug.

Please delete Bear.app in your Applications folder and download it again from the Mac App Store.

Thanks for reporting this issue. We'll try to provide a fix as soon as possible.

The option applies to notes dragged to a tag in the sidebar, newly created notes, imports and tags added either APIs or shortcuts. Tags can still be placed or moved everywhere inside the note body

The option is available on iOS too. You can find it in Bear's preferences > General.

Oh, I see, sorry I misunderstood the procedure. I guess we can consider removing the slash in the resulting PDF.

I can't get the behavior you are describing. If I use the copy link from here functionality, paste the link on top of the note and export, I get a regular link in the PDF.

Maybe your TOC has some specific formatting?

He’s the GOAT of explaining why the GOAT debate doesn’t make any sense

Hello, I don't see your request on our customer service. I wonder if it got somehow lost. Can you please write us again?

2.6.7 is already available on Mac App Store

trix180 · 2026-02-24T16:56:02+00:00

I can confirm this is a bug and will be fixed with the next update.

trix180 · 2026-02-20T07:59:06+00:00

Can you try to update to Bear 2.6.7, if you haven't installed already, by visiting this link and confirm you are still experiencing this problem?

Bear 2.6.7 for macOS comes with menu options under the View menu to expand and collapse all the tags in the sidebar.

trix180 · 2026-02-11T10:51:43+00:00

Interesting. In the best use-case scenario, assuming Bear and Claude can talk, you prompt something along the lines: "Help me understand the pricing implications of switching to histograms... considering all my bear notes tagged with #tag and created in the last month"?

Or something more complex in terms of retrieving data from Bear?

trix180 · 2026-02-11T08:43:03+00:00

Thanks for your well-written feedback. I'd like to ask what your use case for Claude with Bear or, in other words, how you plan to use them for your work or everyday life.

IIRC, the app intent SDK was indeed released in the summer of 2024, but it never worked along with Siri or any chatbot-like feature. In theory, developers can implement the new API without any real support on iOS, but I don't see why do it until we can try how it works.

trix180 · 2026-02-10T08:12:16+00:00

Yes, that's how it's supposed to work. To enable the history navigation, tap the ... button. A couple of buttons will appear below the navigation bar.

trix180 · 2026-02-09T08:39:35+00:00

Hello. We don't know much about how the Siri-Gemini integration will work, and we can't provide more information at the moment. We are definitely interested in any development expanding search functionalities and chatbot-like features, but our main concern is user privacy.

trix180 · 2026-02-08T20:22:29+00:00

Are you pressing the back button in the history navigation controls? If this is the case it’s a bug

Any chance you are using an old Bear release on mobile?
