If you make any changes to the order or pages, they will reflect immediately on Alfred Remote.
You can add example pages, or if any of your Alfred 2 workflows have a Remote page, they can be used. If you want to get more, you have to add them manually from Alfred 2’s Remote preference panel. By default, Alfred Remote will include the following pages: System Commands, Applications, Preferences, Folders and Files, Bookmarks, and iTunes Control.
When you connect Alfred Remote to a Mac, you’ll see a screen that is filled with icons and tabs. You’ll be able to choose which Mac you want to pair to at the time from the Connections screen. If you have multiple Macs in the house with Alfred 2, repeat the setup process for each of them. Tap it ad then enter the 12-character passphrase on iOS into Alfred 2 on Mac, and then the two devices will be able to talk to each other. When you’re on this step, grab your iPhone or iPad with Alfred Remote and launch it - if it’s on the same Wi-Fi network as the Mac, then you will see your Mac’s name show up. Make sure the “Enable Alfred Remote Server” box is checked off, and then click “Add iOS Remote” in the bottom right corner. Then you’ll need to launch Alfred 2’s preference panel and head to the Remote section. In order for Alfred Remote and Alfred 2 to see each other, both devices will need to be on the same Wi-Fi network. Setting up Alfred Remote with Alfred 2 is simple, and explained clearly in the app when you launch it for the first time. Overall, the visual aesthetic of Alfred Remote makes it a winner. The signature purple color used throughout the app will make you feel right at home if you’re a longtime user, and the bright blue text for the corner buttons contrasts nicely. The app makes use of large icons so you can quickly see what you are able to do with the remote, and pagination to make switching between different actions intuitive and fast. The interface for Alfred Remote is simple, beautiful, and designed to make your life easier.
ALFRED MACBOOK LICENSE
Of course, this was all prior to Alfred Remote’s release, and I finally bit the bullet and purchased a Mega Supporter license yesterday, just to make use of Alfred Remote.
ALFRED MACBOOK UPGRADE
Even though Alfred 2 came out about a year or so ago, I have been running version 1.4 with the Powerpack on my MacBook until yesterday, since it was doing the things I needed without issue, and I saw little reason to upgrade to v2.0.
ALFRED MACBOOK FULL
Not only does Alfred make launching apps faster and easier for me, but it had useful things like a built-in calculator, quick Internet search shortcuts, and full customization of how you want things to run, like theming. I’ve been a huge fan of Alfred ever since it came out several years ago, as it fully replaced the old Quicksilver for me. If you are a user of Alfred 2 and want to have a mobile complement to your Mac all day long, then Alfred Remote is worth a look. Alfred Remote ($4.99) by Running with Crayons Ltd is an app that turns your iOS device into your personal command center for Alfred 2 on Mac.
