“A few people” is an important keyphrase. When a feature is considered, it has to be weighed on its cost (how difficult will it be to implement; how will it disrupt other features and how many users that will inconvenience and to which degree) versus its benefits (how many users will benefit how much from its existence). Has Folders for Organising Workflows crossed the threshold to where it’s worth to be implemented to the detriment of something else? (This is inescapable: if you spend time on one feature, you do not spend it on another.) @Andrew and @Vero have shown to have a good pulse for this over the years and I trust their call. I’d wager that at this point they’ve considered this and had it at least marinate.

Done.

It cannot in the current implementation, no. Not sure if it would be a good idea either because it’d require macOS to constantly send information back to the iOS app. I’m not saying that would be a problem, just that it might be or go against the design goals of Remote.

@zlc1952 When you answer this, please make sure to be specific. For example, which format is the transcript in? Also, it will help if you provide one and/or the steps you’re using to extract it.

Please don’t open multiple threads for the same issue. In addition, this one is an XY Problem, in which you’re asking about a solution instead of your problem. That doesn’t help you because it makes you learn the wrong thing. If you want things to work, you need to patient and do them the right way. I’ve already answered this in the other post.

No, File Action Triggers deal with paths. Commonly those are files, but folders work just the same. Do that in the Python part. If you need more specific help, you’ll need to upload and post your Workflow.

You can do it with a Workflow which will disable Bluetooth then sleep. Like so.

Welcome @EricW, It seems unlikely that Alfred is working and only the Clipboard History isn’t. Have you seen Why isn’t my Clipboard History working?

Welcome @BlushAudio, This doesn’t seem like a Full Disk Access permission. Go into Alfred Preferences → General → Request Permissions… and do the other ones (Automation may be the one). If it still doesn’t work after that, let us know because it may still be doable with a Workflow.

Why? It sounds like what you want is a File Action Trigger. Navigate into it. You can enter that from a regular file search, or File Filter, or a multitude of other ways. The default shortcut is ⌘↓. I get that you’re frustrated, but venting is counter-productive. It makes your report hard to follow. I don’t even understand what you mean with that second sentence. It seems like you’re simply using the wrong tool for the job, or misusing/misunderstanding the right tool. Either way, if the above didn’t cover it, what we need from you is a clear thorough description of what you want.

It is fine to do. It is part of Alfred’s troubleshooting steps and the team wouldn’t suggest something harmful.

See Troubleshooting File Indexing Issues.

Welcome @Maciej Swoboda, Are you sure? Because that message comes from the TinyPNG API, not the Workflow, and is exactly what happens when you give it a path which doesn’t exist. The file needs to be a PNG named exactly tinypng panda.png It also might help if you explain why you are using the External Trigger. That’s for advanced usage.

Your example is not searching within anything, so I still don’t get how it would work. Specifically: Walk me through the exact behaviour in Alfred. Perhaps I’m misunderstanding and can think of a workaround. As it is (i.e. my current understanding), I don’t see it as either possible of likely to be implemented.

In that case simply delete the old version of the application, the one currently in /Applications, before trying to move the new version.

That’s by design, so you don’t overwrite a file by mistake. If you rename either, it will work. Or you can make a Workflow which will overwrite files regardless, though I wouldn’t recommend it and the interface won’t be exactly the same. What exactly are you looking for? What would you prefer happened or what is confusing?

No, it is not possible. How would Alfred even figure out which Keyword should be hidden and which should be shown? You type p and then what? Does it show pp, play, or neither? Either way it would be confusing.

(Emphasis mine) The answer is again a List Filter Input. Yes, same way you did in your screenshot.

The proper way to achieve this would be to add a Universal Action to the Workflow. It would allow you to go from Clipboard History directly to the Workflow.

The preview window is Quick Look, which is a macOS native feature. It can’t highlight the keyword because there isn’t a mechanism to pass that information. But it can be extended to highlight code (search online for Quick Look Plugins and you’ll find plenty). If you’re looking for improvements no plugin can provide, then you’ll need to contact Apple via Feedback Assistant and request it.

Check OneUpdater (disclaimer, I’m the author). It’s a simple way to create update checks for simple Workflows.

Welcome @chrisjjjjj, You can do it with the say command, but I doubt you’ll like it. macOS voices read at a robotic tone and will not come close to the quality of the average audiobook. Try it first: System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts → Services → Text → Add to Music as a Spoken Track (activate it). Then select some text, right-click and Add to Music as a Spoken Track. Listen to the result.

There’s no simple way to do this because Apple does not provide the necessary hooks for the automation. You can do it by faking key presses, which is less that ideal.

If you use Pinboard (it has a toread list), PinPlus can both add and act on the reading list items. There are a couple Safari Reading List Workflows you can search for as well. I won’t link to them because I don’t know which (still) work. Adding and removing items is easy with those, but removing needs to be done via GUI Safari. Finally, there are Workflows for Pocket and Instapaper.

I’ll move this to Feature Suggestions, but this sounds like it might be hard. At the very least I doubt that showing the modifier text/status on Alfred Remote itself would be tricky because it would require Alfred to constantly monitor for it.
