The preferred entrance to Setapp is the "Explore" page, which provides information such as personalized application recommendations, usage guides, recent additions and updates to applications. The Explore page is updated weekly, remember to check it regularly.

2. Make good use of search functions

No need to know exactly the name of the app, just describe what you want to do. Setapp has a menu bar assistant, but you don't even need to open the app every time to search – just press Ctrl-Shift-Space to access the search bar anywhere.

3. Explore applications by function

• Visit All Apps to view all available apps. Get ready for the long scrolling – Setapp currently has more than 230 apps and is still expanding rapidly.
• Browse the app by category (such as development, writing, etc.).
• Use the arrow in the upper left corner to return to the previous screen, just like in a Mac browser.
• Preview the app. Click on any app to see its detailed preview, including screenshots and main features.
• Click the "Install" button in the preview menu or the "Install" button under the application name in the list to install.
