Benefits:
- discovering good apps
- cost savings
Apps I use from Setapp:
├── AnyTrans for iOS.app
├── Bartender.app
├── CleanMyMac X.app
├── CleanShot X.app
├── Dash.app
├── Default Folder X.app
├── Meta.app
├── Path Finder.app
├── Pulltube.app
├── TablePlus.app
├── Trickster.app
└── Whisk.app
Bartender 19 EUR
Nice to have. Declutters your menu bar, visually, though icons remain at hand.
CleanMyMac 35 EUR (1x Mac)
I have been using it for years. Was happy to find it on Setapp, included.
13 Oct 2026 No longer using it. I switched to the free, open-source Mole CLI, see Mole - free, open-source Mac cleaner for the terminal for why.
Dash 30 EUR
Just started using. Love it so far. Less time DuckDuckGoing (our Youing), and reading old Stackoverflow answers.
Default Folder X 42 EUR
Recent addition to my stack, pre Setapp. Streamlines the file saving process.
Path Finder 30 EUR
I have been using it for years. Was happy to find it on Setapp, included.
Pulltube 15 EUR
Discovered with Setapp. Replaced 4K Video downloader (see Nic Note: 4K Video Downloader)
TablePlus $79 (=75 EUR)
I have been using it since last year when I started learning/building with SQLite. Was happy to find it on Setapp, included.
Trickster 30 EUR
I was using it before Setapp. Discovered it last year - though had been missing/searching for such an app for years before! One of my best find, constantly in use.
Whisk $30 (=29)
For HTML and CSS development. Still on the fence about that one.
Meta 25 EUR
To manage my music library - tags and covers. Best app for that, and I have used quite a few over the years.
TOTAL when bought individually = 330 EUR
vs.
Setapp Power User (4x Macs)
$13.49/month x 12
= $162 (= 155 EUR)
So 54% savings for me at this stage.
