Search and Browse

Launch applications and find files on your Mac or on the web. Alfred learns how you use your Mac and prioritises results.

Save countless hours by using hotkeys, keywords and customising how you want to search your Mac and activity history.

Jump in and browse, preview files and take action on them without lifting your fingers off the keyboard.

Type Less, Say More

With Alfred’s Clipboard History and Snippets features, there’s no need to type the same URLs or responses over and over.

Use the Clipboard History to locate any text, image or file you copied earlier and paste it again.

Create your own snippets and type a short abbreviation to auto-expand them into a full text snippet, saving yourself hours of typing in the long run!

Extend and Automate

With Alfred’s Powerpack, use immensely powerful workflows to perform tasks more efficiently and cut down on repetitive manual tasks.

Link hotkeys, keywords and actions together to create your own workflows; There’s no need to write a single line of code to create a workflow. Import workflows from the thousands our community of creators have shared.

Control Your Music

You’re the boss. Boost your productivity by controlling your Mac using Alfred’s deep integration with OS X. Swiftly take action on files and contacts, control your music player and dispatch System commands.
