Doesn’t Refresh Your Purchases

What makes this so poor is that you purchase Sync subscriptions, but you can’t refresh them here or on the iOS version.

$1.99 Buy Subscription DOESN’T PROCESS ORDER

My 1-year subscription expired but clicking on the ‘Buy Subscription ($1.99)/Year’ button doesn’t do anything! I even logged out, then logged back in again, but clicking the subscribe button DOES NOTHING!!! PLEASE FIX AND TAKE MY MONEY.

Super super useful. minor complain

I have been looking for a simple app like this without all the bagage that Alfred has. It worls fine and has not crashed. Thank you for making this. request: Make a wikipedia summary available on the app UI issues: Cannot change the order of services. Menu icon is weird in dark theme. !!Your app sends usage data every minute to count.ly & scalabl.cloud (even without sync setup) You are being to nosey. How about once a launch?

good stuff with a caveat

I like it and I like syncing with the essential iOS app. However I wish the look of the search box was a little less “heavy."

Really Like This App!

For some reason Google's Quick Search Box has stopped working in Mavericks, and I use it frequently. This app works the same way but has some added features that I like. You can use any one of the 34 search engines available in the drop down menu. Also, there is an ability to set a hot key for launch which I like. This is my goto search program now. Cudos to Synapse for a great job, and thanks for making it free!

its very useful as you use it more often

its simple and it works really well. there are only two problems I have. 1) not being able to hide the app on start-up. 2) not being able to disable history. other than that its great.

Pretty nice!

Small utility that enables you to be fully keyboard driven. If you combine this with google's keyboard shortcuts, you can do web searches without having to use the mouse at all!
