Alfred Powerpack 5.5 (2257) for Mac
Mac UtilitiesAlfred Powerpack 5.5 (2257) for Mac is a stable release build of Alfred 5.5, the productivity launcher developed by Running with Crayons. The REL label simply marks the finished release channel, as opposed to the early-access and pre-release test builds — this is the version intended for everyday use on your Mac.
Alfred's core launcher, search and calculator are free forever. The Powerpack is the paid upgrade, sold as a one-time licence for the major version rather than a subscription, and it unlocks the automation and organisation tools that long-term Alfred users build their routines around.
Key Features
- Powerful workflows linking hotkeys, keywords, inputs and actions, with no coding required
- Clipboard history for text, images and files, plus searchable snippets and text expansion
- Rich interactive views for previewing Markdown, images, PDFs and text inside Alfred
- Deep file management, custom web searches, contacts and 1Password integration
- Custom themes, preference syncing between Macs and a large community workflow gallery
How to Download
- Download from the official site
- Download Alfred itself free from Running with Crayons, then buy a Powerpack licence on that page if you need the advanced features.
- Activate the licence in Alfred's Powerpack preferences and use the in-app updater to stay on the latest stable build.
Is Alfred 5.5 a subscription?
No. The Powerpack is a one-time purchase valid for that major Alfred version, with upgrade pricing when a new major version arrives. Check the official page for the current licence types and prices.
What do I lose by staying on free Alfred?
The free core still launches apps, finds files and does calculations. You miss workflows, clipboard history, snippets, custom themes and several integrations, which are exactly the features the Powerpack licence unlocks.
