Import your notes

Bear can import files in the following formats:

• .txt - Plain Text
• .md - Markdown
• .rtf - Rich Text Format
• .textbundle - V2 Text Bundle (Text, Markdown)
• .textpack - V2 Compressed Text Bundle format
• .enex - Evernote XML Export Format
• .bearnote - Bear Note
• .taskPaper - TaskPaper file format
• .webloc - Mac OS X website shortcut
• .html - HTML files
• Vesper notes
• DayOne entries
• Drafts entries
• Evernote notes

On macOS you can import your notes by selecting File → Import Notes… from the menu bar.

On iOS you can access to the importers using the Import & Export in the Bear's Preferences.

The importers come with an option to keep the original dates of the imported files; you can also use the first line or the file name as title. However, when importing .bearnote files, the creation date is always used.
