Alfred Gallery FAQ

Alfred Gallery is created and maintained by the Alfred team.

As the official source for Alfred workflows, the Gallery provides an easy way to discover workflows created by our amazing community, as well as safely install and update them.

What is a Workflow?

Alfred Workflows are a way to extend Alfred's features, allowing you to get things done your way by speeding up repetitive tasks and integrating with your favourite Mac apps and services.

You can create your own Workflows or browse the Gallery to find workflows created by the Alfred team and the community.

What do I need to use an Alfred Workflow?

To use Alfred's Workflows, you'll need to download Alfred and activate your Powerpack license. You can buy a Powerpack license if you don't have one yet.

Why can't I install an Alfred Gallery Workflow?

Ensure you're using the latest Alfred update, as some workflows are optimised for the newest features.

How Do I Update an Installed Workflow?

Workflows installed from the Gallery can be updated directly from Alfred Preferences > Workflows. Workflows which are up-to-date display a star icon Icon for Gallery workflow while outdated workflows show an upward arrow Icon for outdated workflow. To update, right-click the workflow and choose Update from the Alfred Gallery.

You can also use the Alfred Gallery workflow to install the latest available version of a workflow.

Are there feeds for new and updated Workflows?

Yes. Your feed reader should be able to detect the available feeds from the URL of any Gallery page. The Gallery keeps feeds for New Workflows and Updated Workflows.

How can I submit my Workflow?

See the Submit page.

I Have a Workflow in the Gallery. How Do I Submit an Update?

What If I Need to Give a User a Version of My Workflow to Test?

Even if a user installs your workflow from outside the Gallery, Alfred knows it's the same one and will let them continue updating to the Gallery versions.
