Alfred Web Search Suggest

Alfred search suggest workflow for various popular websites. Inspired by the official Google Suggest workflow.

Download & Install

✨ This workflow is available on official Alfred Gallery now! (which means it has been reviewed and verified by Alfred Team ✅)

If you have Alfred 5 or above, you can install and resolve dependencies with one click and enjoy in-app updates in the future.

➡️ Go to official Alfred Gallery page

If you are still using Alfred 4 or older, you can download from GitHub releases and install it (just open with Alfred) manually.

Important Note for macOS Monterey (12.0) and above

Apple has removed the system PHP since macOS Monterey (12.0), so you should install PHP to continue using this workflow.

If you have Alfred 5 or above, you can let Alfred resolve dependencies automatically.

Or you can use Homebrew to install PHP manually. After installing Homebrew, you can run the following command in Terminal to install PHP:

brew install php
