Alfred as a quick memory / note tool

Hey

 

I use snippets for a few things just as a memory or note, like addresses or people's names or account details/numbers.

 

I thought it would be very useful if it was easier to add snippets or reminders into Alfred from that main Alfred search field.

It could also be useful if Alfred could search longer text documents for info - imagining I have text files that contain information.

 

Perhaps an app already exists?

This would be interesting. Workflow to add snippets or text replacement.

There once was a great app called notational velocity [NV] for fast note taking. This was modified into NVAlt which used multimarkdown and when that stopped development another developer made a "spiritual successor", FSNotes. FSNotes works on both macOS and iOS, syncs well, is open source and you can use it for free, though I gladly bought a copy to support its developer. It has an Alfred workflow:
