Boring

Until I can pass data to Alfred workflows from iOS (using a share action), this is little more than a proof of concept.
Could Be Great but no updates!

Was surprised I can run any Alfred workflows...seems odd. Access to system command and bookmarks are nice but not unique. Integrate this further and it's a must have combo.
Pretty functional

This is a great idea and a well made product. However, a redesign, additional of things like widgets, and maybe siri integration, would make it very much better. I think, the big part has been finished. It is worth going that 15% just to make the experience smoother.
Waste of time and money

The app is misrepresented on the Apple store site. The iOS app is inexpensive but it’s catch bait BEWARE: it’s useless without buying the “power pack” for the MacBook Pro which is in British pounds @ $1.4/lb do >$30. It’s somewhere between childish and dysfunctional. It took about an hour to figure out how to connect the iPhoneX and then the functionality was minimal. Day 2 could not reconnect. Ok so forget about a few $ for an app but the system is constructed in a idiosyncratic way. Just a huge waste of time and money.
Get the Power Pack and use this

I’ve been using this across two Macs for a number of years. Having a remote that you can configure yourself for just about anything? Priceless. I didn’t think I’d like the 1.5 changes but they’re growing on me…. And yes one of the 5 remote screens is a TV remote for the 3 Mac media players on my machines. Tip: Try to match key bindings in every player you use… Infinite possibilities here, even if you’ve never programmed a line of code in your life.
Awesome!

Works seamlessly with my Retina MacBook Pro! Handy features to maneuver items from your phone. Simple pairing process as well. I didn't expect it to work so well/fast but it really does. Worth few dollars especially as the OS X variant is free.
Extremely Useful

Remote is a great addition to the workflows I have already built in Alfred. I am also finding new ways to use Alfred like getting my most used apps and websites up and running before I even get out of bed :) It is a unique app and a must have for Powerpack users.

Alfred for Mac became my most frequently used app the day I downloaded it because it took my love of shortcuts to a higher level. Now I have a new way to shortcut AND a way to put my iPad Mini to better use while at the desk. Remote is a great way to use a second screen in an effective way. Remote is fully customizable (choosing and arranging the grid of shortcuts, adding/naming pages, colors/icons), and can be used to shortcut non-app processes. I have an Application page, a URL page, a Folder page, and can’t wait to get a workflow page going. Well worth the wait. Go get more productive.
