Setapp system requirements

Your Mac must meet these requirements (quite modest, we hope) to work with the Setapp app:

• macOS version:
  • El Capitan 10.11 (minimum)
  • Sierra 10.12 and later (recommended; required to install iOS apps)
• Free disk space: around 500 Mb
• Internet connection

macOS version

You'll need at least macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) to launch Setapp on your Mac. However, most apps in Setapp require macOS 10.12 as a minimum and might not work on 10.11.

If your Mac uses macOS 10.11, an optimized version of Setapp is downloaded for you automatically. This version differs from the latest Setapp in its look & feel, some features, and workflows: for example, installing and activating iOS apps will not be available. Thus, your working experience may vary from the one described in this Knowledge Base.

iOS version on your mobile device

Every mobile app in Setapp has its own requirements for an iOS version; these requirements are listed in this article. To make your work more comfortable, we'll soon display the required iOS versions right on the app pages in Setapp on Mac.
