Raycast Reviews & Product Details

Let me start with the basic pros of Raycast. It sticks to the design language of Mac Os. It comes with bunch of extensions in built and you can do basic things like calculations.

The best thing about Raycast is that it lets you build custom extensions using React. You just install one or two libraries in npm project and code. The dev tools are also very easy to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I never do file search as I am relatively organised and tend to locate the files. When I tried (may be once or twice) to search files in Raycast it was bad experience.

When you are typing a command it searches in applications and built in commands. But as a backup it doesn't search anywhere else. I prefer it to be google search but some might want files search. It supports neither. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm happy! I've found a replacement for Alfred - it's more customizable and has great extensions. It has all the functionality I need for my daily work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Navigation can be annoying when I'm trying to exit an extension. If I'm too deep in my plugin, I have to press the Esc key multiple times. There doesn't seem to be a workaround for this minor issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Raycast is a superior Alfred alternative. Not only is it free but packed with a ton of useful features. Moreover, it is actively developed so updates are published frequently. Raycast itself is one of my best productivity tools – quick access to files, an advanced calculator, paste-bin manager and useful apps developed by the Raycast community are amongst my favorite features.

Sometimes it is still a little bugy. The problem with community-created apps is that not every one of them is created in the best possible way. Because of that Raycast sometimes crashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
