I`m writing a lot in BEAR. The greatest thing to have was a Focus Line. It sounds simple but helps a lot. A focus line stands in the middle of the screen and looks standard. The rest of the Text was lighter in color. Now i must scroll the Text from hand down, so i can return to my writing. The Focus line helps with it and let me stay focused. Please BEAR - Team give us a Focus Line. 😍

This so called typewriter mode was a popular request. Also the devs weren’t too skeptical but it doesn’t seem to have any priority. However, a simple typewriter mode (current line in the middle) with the option to either highlight the sentence or the paragraph would indeed be amazing to enhance bears capabilities as WRITING app
