Hi everyone! Yaroslav Stepanenko here, Director of Marketing at MacPaw.
As @kosovan mentioned, we created Setapp Mobile to help our users discover hidden gems and feel secure in their app choice.
Since our closed beta, we’ve made great improvements in our stability and enhanced the overall user experience. And the best part? We’ve doubled the number of available apps in our catalog, which now stands at 50+.
We're eager to hear your thoughts and feedback during this next phase of our beta. Your insights are invaluable as we continue to shape Setapp Mobile's future. Together, let's create an app marketplace that truly empowers users.
@kosovan @yaroslav_s something truly amazing 🤩 congratulations with launch 🚀
When do you plan to have US version?

@sasha_buratynskyi, thanks for your support! While we can't predict when the United States will introduce legislation similar to the DMA, our team is closely monitoring the situation across the globe. We'll keep our users informed of any developments!
Congratulations to the MacPaw and Setapp Mobile teams on the successful launch of the open beta! It's exciting to see a new, user-focused app marketplace enter the EU market.
I'm eager to see how the platform evolves and expands in the coming months and I'm looking forward to the day when Setapp Mobile becomes available globally. Keep up the great work!
Congrats with launch! Although it looks great, how do you hope to transfer people using your apps instead of standard and already so clear? It requires time for setting up and adaptation.

@valentyna_zakharova, thank you! If I understand your question correctly, so Setapp Mobile is one of the drivers of alternative marketplaces in the EU. As it's a new market and niche we focus on giving our users value in cases they need (varieties of personal tasks) under one cost-effective subscription, so users don't need to pay for each app.
Happy to be apart of this fantastic launch with my apps Focused Work and Ochi! Good luck Setapp team! 🚀

@teeeeeegz, thank you, Michael! Happy to have you and your fantastic apps on board :)
Congrats, the MacPaw team ... and lucky EU users!
Why not create a directory-like US version of Setapp Mobile? Essentially, a Setapp desktop app but for iOS.
It would have the same UI, but instead of downloading, it would link to the product's App Store listing. You already have a Mac + iOS plan (which I'm happily subscribed to, by the way) for all users, including the US ones.
I think it would be a no-brainer and satisfy the US user base. Granted, I might be a little biased toward app directories since I'm launching one myself soon )
Congrats to the MacPaw team! This is a market-changing product with a vast potential for future expansion. Also, glad to see CleanMy®Phone there 💖

@yuliia_chuzha Thank you for your support, we want to give our users a better experience with mobile applications! Happy to have CleanMy®Phone with us :)
Congrats, guys! I'm excited to see you disrupt the EU market! 🚀 I already know of a few very successful cases of launching apps with your marketplace.

@daryna_azhnyuk Thank you for your support! We're proud of our partners and their success, more to come!
Big congrats on the launch! Setapp is a real boost for indie devs. I can't wait to try this out. :)
Love MacPaw company and everything that you are doing!
Congrats on your launch!
I think it worth pointing out that although Setapp Mobile will (for now) only be available to iOS users in the EU, it can include apps from developers based anywhere in the world. As the Australian developer of Sun Seeker iOS app I am thrilled to have it included in Setapp Mobile's initial offering.
It's really amazing news 💜
Congratulations with the launch 🚀
Do you have any plans to add apps like Strava or Medium to Setapp Mobile? 🙏
Maker
@alex_filobok Thank you so much for your support! We're always working on expanding our app catalog to offer a diverse range of tools for our users. Apps for fitness tracking, content creation and reading are definitely on our radar, so stay tuned for more updates!
Congratulations on the launch, guys! Curious to learn more about your collaboration model with app developers, is it more profitable for them than in regular stores?
Let’s freaking goo! It’s time to challenge AppStore :)
Finally EU’s regulations provide an opportunity for tech companies, not just obstacles 😌
The curated app selection is a brilliant touch. It’s clear that the team behind this really focused on quality for the end-user.

@muraviov_vadym Hi! We will be bringing Setapp Mobile to iPadOS later this year or in early 2025. Although we do not have a specific release date at the moment, our team is working on optimizing the app for iPad users. Further details will be shared once we have a confirmed timeline
Congrats guys! This is amazing news, been looking forward to it 🙌
Wish you a huge success on PH 🤍
Run! Run! Run! Congratulations on the launch! I have faith in your success.
@roman_keller Hello, the Downie app is available in Setapp Mobile, which can be downloaded from your Setapp web account https://my.setapp.com/login. Simply log in to your web account and go under the Setapp Mobile tab. Scan the QR code and install the Setapp Mobile app. Once the app is installed, you can locate the Downie app by navigating to the Apps tab or by using the Search function and entering the full name of the app. Let me know if this helps
