Tembo

Tembo is a handy Mac app that enhances the default Spotlight search tool in Mac OS X. While Spotlight is pretty useful, it doesn’t let you filter your searches with custom rules like you might want. That’s where Tembo steps in to help you find more relevant results quickly!

Simple and Organized Interface

The first thing you'll notice about Tembo is its clean and organized interface. It features a straightforward window where you can easily perform searches and view results. Plus, one of the coolest things about Tembo is that it allows you to open multiple search windows at once. This means you can run several queries at the same time without any hassle!

Smart Sorting Options

When you get your search results with Tembo, they're organized by file type right off the bat! But that's not all—you can also sort these results based on when they were created, modified, or last opened. You even get to set a specific time frame for your searches. Want to narrow it down even more? You can choose where to look by adding specific folders via the contextual menu.

Custom Filters for Better Results

A really neat feature of Tembo is its context filters for each file type. These filters let you refine what shows up in your results list even further! For example, if you're looking for images, you can specify resolution; if you're hunting for emails, pick a sender or recipient; or if you're after music tracks, filter by artist. It’s super customizable!

Maximize Your Search Efficiency

If you're looking to make the most out of Spotlight's built-in search engine, Tembo is definitely worth having around. It uses all the same resources as Spotlight but gives you those awesome customizable filtering options that can really speed up how fast you find what you're looking for.
