Hi everyone!
Can you add Family Sharing for in-app purchases when will public Bear 2.0, that’s allowed to use Pro plan for members in my iCloud family, who also use Bear. Read more about
App must support it if developer turn on this function.
Thanks for answer!
I also wish this was enabled. I have several subscriptions that I pay for, and this is the only app that does not allow me to share it with my kids. I’m not inclined to purchase a separate subscription for them, and this choice will certainly factor into whether I use Bear, Obsidian, Drafts, IA Writer, or another app for my notes. For comparison, Drafts allows subscription sharing: Family Sharing of Drafts Pro Subscriptions Enabled - News & Updates - Drafts Community
+1. Agree would be great to share.
+1 vote for family sharing. I have two kids, and they use Apple Notes.
Bear app is superior.

I’m trying to get my kids (high-school age) started on a Markdown-based lifestyle early, but can’t justify the cost to buy them separate subscriptions and hope they get value.
P.S. if anyone has relevant advice for helping people learn to manage their own digital creations instead of relying on cloud software, I’d greatly appreciate it.
Casting my vote for this too. It is just convenient that subscriptions can be shared with spouse and kids, and family sharing is pretty much standard on all mainstream apps. I doubt the team is doing this to nickel and dime.
Any updates on this? I’d love for my partner to try Bear Notes. She would likely pay for it after a while, but only if I could have her try it via Family Sharing
I agree. One of the reasons I use Bear is to be able to have one central location for passwords that our family uses. This worked fine as long as all of our family phones used the same AppleID. My wife now has a separate AppleID so currently we are unable to share notes. Air Dropping hundreds of notes is just not an option.
Sharing is caring! +1
I cast my vote for the family subscription too
Just yesterday I sat down with someone in my immediate family, praising Bear and trying to convince her to start using it, and I confidently opened the settings for Bear on her MacBook, expecting the Pro subscription to either already be applied or accessible in a click or two – no luck. Then I went to the App Store and noticed that Family Sharing is not supported, and what I said next was not very nice.
Adding +1 for me too.
Use case: I don’t want to sign in to my personal iCloud account on my corporate MacBook and have everything sync there, but I would create a second iCloud account and add it to my family for using apps there.
Pessimistic view: it will be enabled with the next price increase
At the current price of $29.99 USD, moving to a family subscription at $39.99 or even $49.99 would be cheaper than buying two independent subscriptions. I would be ok with this.
