How to change Alfred's apperance using a workflow?


Recommended Posts

I don't like how in Alfred you can only either choose the modern dark or white theme. For all apps in my system, I have a light/dark sunrise/sunset schedule. After going through all automations within Alfred as well as system tasks, I could not find a way to achieve the same for Alfred 5. Is this possible?

@Kamil When your Mac is in light mode, choose a theme and it'll be used when your Mac is in light mode. Do the same when your Mac is in dark mode, and Alfred will use that one for Dark mode :)


I think you might have misunderstood my question. I want to change modern theme to modern dark theme for Alfred on sunset, just as all other apps change theme to a dark one on sunset on my system.

@Kamil Do you use light mode in the day and dark mode at night, automatically switching in macOS? If so, the solution I suggested is the right one.

 

If you arbitrarily want the theme to change, without relation to macOS Light/Dark mode, you could use the Switch Appearance workflow and trigger it manually, or use an external trigger to switch at a time that suits your needs:

Right, I understand what you meant now. If I choose an Alfred theme when I’m in light mode, Alfred will remember to use that theme in light mode. Same with a dark mode theme. Thank you.
