*2026-01-14*

This is a great keyboard with many add ons. But, does it support others languages Spanish, French). that's a must for me!

### 4/5 — La aplicación está bien

*2025-01-14*

La aplicación está muy bien y es muy útil tiene muchas opciones pero estaría genial si lo pusieras también en español ganaría mucho.
No te doy cinco estrellas porque creo que le falta el español como te he dicho, pero Sigue por ese camino.

### 4/5 — Add more languages !

*2024-08-28*

I can't find the Arabic alphabets.

**Developer response:** Thank you for letting me know. I’m sorry that Arabic alphabets are not available in the app. Unfortunately, I don’t have knowledge of Arabic, so I can’t provide support for that language at this time. However, I appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind for future improvements. If you have any other questions or suggestions, please let me know.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. 

We understand the situation you're describing. 

Please note that Screen Time and Downtime restrictions are controlled by iOS itself. 

Unfortunately, we are unable to bypass these system-level settings from our app. 

We appreciate your understanding.

### 1/5 — للأسف

*2024-08-28*

لا يدعم اللغة العربية

### 1/5 — Cannot get my free upgrade to pro

*2024-03-26*

Today you are offering pro version for free but here in France the buy add on is stuck on « loading… »

**Developer response:** Please go through the purchase process again as I’ve made some updates to the app.

■To users in EU Region,

It has now become mandatory to comply with the EU Digital Services Act (DSA). This law requires paid app developers to provide their address and phone number.

As an individual developer, I'm unable to afford the cost associated with providing a new address and phone number, effectively making it challenging to continue distributing the app in the EU region.

For the time being, I'll continue to offer apps in the EU region as free app. However, depending on how the EU Digital Services Act (DSA) is interpreted, it may need to cease distributing the app.

### 2/5 — Great app but….

*2025-02-08*

Overall I love this app. It is easy to use and has the ability to put dates into documents for me. There is a major problem with restore. It doesn’t work. To backup the data is easy. To restore the data is is possible. I have tried both ways to restore and it doesn’t work. I have opened and selected the data but it resumes to load.

Update - Deleted another star as developers refuse to help me fix the restore problem that still doe not work.

Update - 02/07/25 - Still unable to get the backup from my iPhone 14  to uninstall on my iPad mini.
Your questions

1. The exact model of your device and the iOS version you are using. iPhone -iPhone 14 (IOS 18.3) iPad mini. (iOS 18.3)
2. The file extension and file name of the backup you created. When I creat it, I save it to notes per you link and it says BearKeyboard (Feb 7, 2025,
19/41) .wordlightDB
3. If possible, screenshots or a short video showing the crash when it occurs. I never said it crashed. I said it DOES NOT LOAD the backup. When I click on the file and it says share as per your instructions, I DO NOT see Bear in does not show up in the list of files.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review and for sticking with us while we work to improve the restore process.  We've made some updates and believe this might help. When sharing the backup file (.wordlightDB) to restore, if you don't immediately see our app (Bear) in the share sheet, please tap "More" and make sure it's enabled there.  Check out our in-app help section for more detailed instructions.  Let us know if you continue to experience issues, we're happy to help!

A browser in a keyboard, the dev has something here, a little to expensive for me but overall excellent tool.

### 5/5 — Very amazing app

*2025-04-03*

I like this keyboard, but the only thing that’s really missing is the option to do voice text and that and basically this keyboard is perfect

### 5/5 — Wow

*2025-03-16*

The fusion of AI with a web browser right in the keyboard saves me so much time. Whether I'm drafting an email or taking notes, having the ability to search the web instantly is a huge plus. The thesaurus function is perfect for finding just the right word when I'm writing. I appreciate how intuitive and user-friendly the interface is. Being able to use ChatGPT for free online without leaving the conversation screen is fantastic. Overall, it's a smart and versatile tool that enhances productivity. Keep up the great work!!

### 5/5 — Cooking with fire

*2025-03-02*

•Swap out close button for copy to clipboard. pressing outside the box closes it anyway.
•Can an option to take off that space thats added to every paste. every name, password, api key to name a few will not work unless you hit backspace after pasting

### 5/5 — Juice me up baby

*2024-12-09*

I love this keyboard and ace browser i truely do. would pick these 2 over any.  just needs juice!and plenty of it. many times while typing letters stop appearing even after toggle flow. buttons dont feel strong. spacebar weakest link. i want this relationship to last a lifetime and F the review saying its lacking in features. 2weeks in and still finding more

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-11-09*

Good，But I am writing to inquire about an issue we are encountering with the Bear application. Specifically, when attempting to add keyboard text that exceeds 3000 words, it does not fit into the required fields.

**Developer response:** Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I’m sorry for the inconvenience you faced with text exceeding 3000 words. I have fixed this bug in the latest version of the app, so please update Bear and let me know if you continue to experience any issues. I truly appreciate your support!
