Alfred Battery
Simple battery checking for Alfred
Alfred is a brilliant launch bar app that allows the creation of workflows to extend the functionality of the app. I created this little battery checking workflow to easily check your mac’s battery level and report it in a simple notification. Designed to make checking your battery on MacOS as easy as possible.
Simply download the workflow from the Alfred Gallery and by simply typing bbl into Alfred you can check your battery status.
