Can't seem to make Yak app work

[Jack Dawes]

Good morning/afternoon/evening.

I've installed Yak (Alfred 5 and Powerpack) and I can't seem to get it to work. 

I Use the hotkey to trigger the timer but I don't get an alert after the allotted time (default 20 mins).

I'm not a tecchie and I'm relatively new to this part of Alfred.  Any one give me tips or tricks on how to diagnose the issue?

Everything seems to be working according to the logger, but I'm not seeing the notification

"[09:01:11.472] Logging Started...
[09:06:14.891] Yak Saver[Keyword] Processing complete

Thanks

Yak Saver does not use a Hotkey, it uses a Keyword. How exactly are you starting it? What are the steps?

 

And what are your versions of the installed workflow and Alfred? Both received updates recently and the mismatch can make the difference.

Thank you for the reply

Maybe I am using the wrong term as Hotkey

I type in 'yak' and press enter.

I am using
- Alfred 5.1 Build 2134
- Yak version 2023.1

Could you please check your macOS Notification Centre to make sure you're allowing notifications from Alfred?

In addition, make sure Do Not Disturb (or another Focus Mode) is off.

Thank you for these tips.

Have switched on notifications from Alfred (previously it was off)
Have switched off DND and Focus and ensured Alfred can burn through anyway.

But currently still no joy.

Ah....it works!

 

Brilliant.

Many thanks to you all for your assistance!
