It&#8217;s so good, it&#8217;s even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/macos-tahoe-finally-turned-me-into-a-desktop-widget-user-heres-why\/\">changed my mind about using widgets<\/a>. Not only is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/how-to-customize-macos-liquid-glass-and-make-it-uniquely-yours\/\">Liquid Glass UI<\/a> supremely elegant, but the Spotlight tool is finally up to the task of modern usage.<\/p>\n<p>Case in point, the ability to send messages and emails directly from the Spotlight search bar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You read that right. You can now send messages and emails from within Spotlight, without having to first open Apple Mail or iMessage. It&#8217;s convenient and works like a charm. I&#8217;ve been using this feature for a few days now and have found myself working with the Mail app less and less.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/6-features-i-wish-macos-would-copy-from-linux\/\">6 features I wish MacOS would copy from Linux<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, you can&#8217;t reply to messages or read incoming messages, but as far as sending quick emails to people, this is the way to go.<\/p>\n<p>Notice I did say &#8220;quick emails.&#8221; You&#8217;re not going to use this feature to send paragraph after paragraph (although I suppose you could), so I would keep that in mind before you start using the Spotlight for this purpose.<\/p>\n<h2>Adding an action to Spotlight<\/h2>\n<p>Before you can send that first message or email from within Spotlight, you have to add an action. An action is exactly what it sounds like &#8212; it allows you to use Spotlight for purposes other than searching. There are actions for timers, notes, various apps (such as your default web browser), and more. The action I&#8217;ll demonstrate is email.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To add the email action, follow these steps.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ffd583fe-9b49-4ce8-8e04-1c2efd56595a\" class=\"c-shortcodeListicle g-outer-spacing-bottom-medium\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_conten\"><!----> <!----> <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_dek\" readability=\"7\">\n<div class=\"c-ShortcodeContent\" readability=\"34\">\n<p>To open Spotlight, hit the Cmd+Space keyboard shortcut, which brings up the Spotlight search bar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <a data-cy=\"infoCard_showMore\" class=\"c-shortcodeInfocard-faq-showMore\"> Show more <\/a> <!----><\/div>\n<p> <!----> <!----><\/div>\n<div id=\"2ffa779f-02df-4a21-9f2c-6639eaf8bc76\" class=\"c-shortcodeListicle g-outer-spacing-bottom-medium\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_conten\"><!----> <!----> <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_dek\" readability=\"7\">\n<div class=\"c-ShortcodeContent\" readability=\"34\">\n<p>With Spotlight open, hit the Cmd+3 keyboard shortcut, which brings up the Action window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <a data-cy=\"infoCard_showMore\" class=\"c-shortcodeInfocard-faq-showMore\"> Show more <\/a> <!----><\/div>\n<p> <!----> <!----><\/div>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large c-shortcodeImage-hasCaption\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage\"><!----> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/how-to-send-quick-messages-via-spotlight-in-macos-tahoe-and-why-im-obsessed\/\" alt=\"The MacOS Tahoe Spotlight Actions window.\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1095.7575757575758\" fetchpriority=\"low\"><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption>\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_caption g-inner-spacing-right-small g-color-black\" readability=\"6\">\n<div class=\"c-ShortcodeContent\" readability=\"32\">\n<p>You can add as many actions as you like to Spotlight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall u-block\">Jack Wallen\/ZDNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"95d88292-279e-45c1-bc07-e0c7b67b80c3\" class=\"c-shortcodeListicle g-outer-spacing-bottom-medium\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_conten\"><!----> <!----> <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeListicle_dek\" readability=\"9.5\">\n<div class=\"c-ShortcodeContent\" readability=\"39\">\n<p>In the Action window, locate Send Email and then click the associated &#8220;Add quick keys.&#8221; After clicking &#8220;Add quick keys,&#8221; you&#8217;ll see a cursor appear, where you&#8217;ll give the action a name.
