Bebop helps you get down your ideas, fast. It assumes that review and organization are better done on larger screens—that a mobile text editor should be lightning-fast, clutter-free, and capture-first. • No ads, no logins, no tracking: Files are synced natively to your chosen iCloud Drive or Dropbox folder • BYOMA (Bring Your Own MacOS App): Open plain-text formats like .txt and .md/markdown plug neatly into Obsidian • Custom headers, footers, and filename formats: To work with your workflow • Flashback notes: Cycle through recent notes with a single tap • Share extension: Quickly save links and text from other iOS apps • Widgets and shortcut: Launch Bebop in any number of ways • Unlimited notes (even for free users) For a one-time Pro upgrade (no subscriptions!) you’ll also get color themes, custom templating, power-user settings, and help support future development. --- Bebop is made by Jack Cheng, an author and solo developer in Detroit, Michigan.
