![]() ![]() Let’s say you want to write in Ulysses ($44.99), create Web pages in RapidWeaver ($99), take screenshots with Capto ($29.99), keep track of your Mac’s performance with iStat Menus ($18), and monitor your server with Simon ($99). Obviously, the question comes down to whether you’ll use enough of the included apps to make the subscription worthwhile. You can even use Setapp on a second Mac merely by signing in on that Mac. These apps aren’t demos, crippled, or older versions, and there’s no advertising anywhere. Setapp automatically keeps its apps up to date at all times, so you don’t have to fuss with installing updates - including major new upgrades. ![]() It’s unlikely apps will be removed often, if at all, given that developers sign a 12-month non-exclusive agreement. Nor will the price go up as more apps are added. Pay $9.99 per month (the first month is free) and you can use any number of those apps for no additional charge. Setapp for Users - That’s part of the pitch for Setapp, a new subscription service from MacPaw that gives Mac users access to 60 carefully curated apps today, with more coming in the future. It’s the same with Spotify or Apple Music - you can play a lot of music in a month for the same price as purchasing a single album on iTunes. For many people (me included), paying $9.99 for a month of Netflix beats buying a movie on iTunes for that $9.99 (or more). But sometimes the value proposition is compelling. I know, some people really don’t like subscriptions. #1644: Explaining Mastodon and the Fediverse, HomePod Software 16.3 and tvOS 16.3, GoTo breach.#1645: AirPlay iPhone to Mac for remote video, Siri learns to restart iPhones, Apple's Q1 2023 financials. ![]()
