Alfred app for the Mac is an application that can increase your productivity. Developed by Andrew Pepperrell and the rest of the Alfred development team, this application lets you make the most of hotkeys, launching files and applications. In addition, Alfred also lets you do quick Web searching too.

With Alfred you can easily look for a file or an application using hotkeys, so you don’t have to grab that mouse. What’s even better is that Alfred learns what apps you use and makes them the priority so they can be retrieved quickly the next time you look. And if you surf the web a lot, Alfred comes with its own customizable web search.

The program lets you export workflows, and you can also use hotkeys to paste, get items on the clipboard as well as look for clips. Apart from being useful, Alfred allows you to customize its colors and look to suit your taste and mood.

If that isn’t enough, the software also has a dictionary where you can look up words and also a calculator. You can even look up your contacts and copy the data. One of the most useful features of this application is its “quick look”, allowing you to preview documents and files, handy when you’ve got a lot of files.

Make no mistake about it, Alfred for Mac is a great productivity tool that makes it easy to do those common everyday tasks on your Mac. Even though it’s free, it’s at par or even better than other similar apps out there.
