![]() How Setapp Worksįirst, you need to head over to the Setapp site and sign up for their service. Intrigued yet? Let’s get into some more details. And you get notifications of newly added applications fairly regularly. As of this writing, there are 64 available applications. While their set of approved, licensed applications isn’t huge (yet), they continue to add applications to their repository. It’s all part of your monthly subscription fee. If for example, you have a Netflix or Apple Music subscription and you want to watch a show or movie, or want to hear a song or album, assuming the streaming service has a license to that content, you can stream (and even download) that media. There is a very well known equivalent to this. So what’s the catch? Well, if you don’t want to pay the $9.99 per month to have access to these Mac applications, you have two options: stop paying the monthly fee and the apps stop working, or you can just purchase the app that you really like individually. You are welcome to visit the site directly to sign up but I’d love for you to use my links to help support my content. Setapp essentially is renting you access to a bunch of hand-selected (by them), premium applications.Ī quick note: the links in this article are Affiliate links (as per my disclosure at the end of the article). They are not filled with ads, nor do they have premium features crippled. These are the same applications you would buy in a standalone version. You pay a monthly fee and with that, you get unlimited access to the latest versions of a variety of premium applications. Setapp approaches software a bit differently. There is regular software – you pay for it and you get it. There is trialware – which is really like “here, this drug is free the first time”. There is shareware – there might be a price tag associated with some good software. When it comes to software, there are plenty of options available to quell my “need.” There is freeware – some of it is really great (but some not). Unfortunately, addictions can be expensive. If it’s new and bright and shiny, I kind of want it. ![]()
